Activity Report download is saved without extension and unreadable

Hello,
The Portal Activity Report iView has a button which enables the user to download the report to his PC.
The problem is that when the user clicks on that button and saves the file it is being saved by this default name: com.sap.portal.activityreport.frontend.DownloadableActivityReport
The main problem is that it is being saved by default without any extension and after saving the user needs to manually add the .xls suffix.
Another problem is that once I open the report with Excel The Object Name column is unreadable.
Is there any way to resolve these issues?
Roy

Hi Roy,
> if it wasn't supported there
> or you would still consider it as a bug?
The feature in general of course was supported, but what I cannot say is if it was a known issue that it didn't work correctly. As I dont't use the ActivityReport, I also have no experience if it didn't work at some time and maybe now is working.
The wrong filename I don't expect to be corrected in the meanwhile, as said, that's a problem in some places. So at least for this you could open an OSS message. And maybe combine this with the problematic column issue.
But if upgrading to SP18 would be an option for you, maybe you could first test that.
Hope it helps

  • Itunes can't play recent TV Show (downloaded via itunes) without Quicktime and can't sink same show to IPod??

    Problem 1:
    I recently bought the HD Season Pass to Please Like Me's second season, and when I went to go watch the first (and as of this writing the only) episode, Itunes kindly informed that I needed QuickTime to watch it. Installing Quicktime has not solved this.
    The QuickTime pop-up also came with a 'more info' button which according to that link, QuickTime is needed for older media (which considering this season is of the more recent variety (aka THIS MONTH) I would consider this to not be 'older'). Itunes otherwise more or less outright says that media of any variety should be able to be played just by Itunes, especially if you literally just bought it off the Itunes store.
    Itunes is updated to the most recent version. I'm running on Windows 8.
    Problem 2:
    With the same aforementioned media, when I tried to sync it to my Ipod Touch (5th Gen, up to date), I was greeted with the lovely little message that more or less said that 'x was not synced because x cannot be played on this Ipod'. Following this I went to the iTunes store on my Ipod and downloaded it from there and lo and behold, it has downloaded with no problems.
    So why is it that I had to go the more roundabout way and time consuming way to transfer the episode?

    Hello bianca729
    I would check to make sure you can download the show again. If you can, then delete the show and download the TV show again. If it still not working, then report the issue with the download with the other article below.

  • I find file without Extension after Download.

    In Firefox, when I am trying to download STL file from Email then it allows me to download such file without extension. That means I can't get file with Extension. . Why such thing happen ?

    Hi, Flash Player is a browser plug in, not a standalone player. It works thru your browser. Check in Safari and any other browser that you use for the Shockwave Flash plugin. Make sure it's Enabled.
    You can test each browser here and should be able to see the Flash Player logo(Red F) animate(spin). It will also display the version of Flash Player that you have Installed.

  • ISE Guest activity reports configuration

    Hi All,
    I am trying to obtain guest activity report pertaining to the websites accessed by the guests. I have a standalone ISE deployement (1.1.2) running all personas. I am following the instructions on this document in a way:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6128/products_configuration_example09186a0080ac2fda.shtml#asac
    I have configured the sysloging on my ASA gateway this way:
    logging on
    logging list WebLogging message 304001
    logging trap WebLogging
    logging facility 21
    logging host inside <ISE-ip-address> 17/20514
    I also configured http inspection:
    policy-map global_policy
    class inspection_default
      inspect http
    service-policy global_policy global
    Accounting is configured on the WLC and pointing to the ISE node.
    I am using CWA for guest access. This is working as expected. The Sponsor creates the account then the guest logs in successfully using the account created. I only need to have the guest activity reported. So far no luck and the activity report is empty. Any pointers are greatly appreciated.

  • How to use Terminal to Find or Locate files without extensions?

    I'm conversant with the cli, but not a power-user.  I've discovered a fairly large number of audio files, across dozens of sometimes nested folders, that (somehow) lost their '.aif' extension and now appear as Unix Executable Files.  Upon appending said files with the proper extension, they are perfectly normal audio aif's.
    My Problem: using the Terminal, how can I search a directory tree to find those files *without* an extension, discriminating between files and folders, and then append the correct extension to only the files?
    I've tried a number of queries, mostly built around the idea of using 'filename.*', but for some reason searching for an extension omission (as opposed to a specified string) isn't so simple. 
    The following: ls -al *.
    Brings up 'No such file or directory'
    And the following ls -al .*
    Brings up files AND directories
    I need o discriminate between files and directories, finds all files without extensions, and rename them with the appropriate extension.
    Can anyone help?
    Best, Tom

    The following will find files without a file extension in the current working directory and any sub-directories->
    find . -type f ! -name "*.*"
    If you are confident that the files found are the appropriate audio file (in this case aif) then you could->
    find . -type f ! -name "*.*" -exec mv {} {}.aif \;

    If Portal Activity Report does not fulfill your usecase, then use Activity Data Collector, which is more powerfull but writes all outputs to files.
    You can also check the DB Tables WCR_USERSTAT and all WCR* tables to check the datas collected by Portal Activity Report.

  • Flash Player Installer downloads from the Adobe distribution site as a generic file without an extension and the file won't open.

    Hi, everyone.
    When I download Flash Player Installer from the Adobe distribution site Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe the file downloads to my hard drive as a generic file with no extension, and Windows can't determine which program to use in order to open/play the file. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
    Is there something wrong with the downloaded file? Or am I missing required software?
    Thank you for your time,
    -Brandon

    Yes, I've never had a problem before. I've even downloaded the Flash Player Install files from the Adobe distribution site on multiple occasions in the past without issue. The only thing I could think of is that perhaps the ".exe" extension was left off to avoid triggering security measures on a computer or private network that would prevent the download.
    Anyway, it worked after I added the ".exe" extension to the filename, so I have no complaints!

  • How to make previous version documents(CS1 and CS3) without extension  readable in InDesign CS5

    I have some previous version documents of CS1 and CS3  on Mac  which have been saved without any extension e.g 300, CS3doc etc.
    When I open such documents in InDesign CS5 they appear to be unreadable .  Only on  selecting 'All documents' filter  I am able to open those documents.
    I want to make all such documents (which are without extension) readable with 'All Readable Documents ' also .
    How I can do that, please  help me !!!!!

    The first thing I'd do is make sure the issue is really what I suspect it is - i.e. I suspect your extension-less documents don't have the proper type and creator.
    If you fire up a Terminal window, you should be able to use the GetFileInfo command to check one of the files:
    Assume 'sampleFile' is sitting on your desktop, you'd do
    GetFileInfo ~/Desktop/sampleFile
    (not sure when/whether GetFileInfo is installed on a Mac - I think it used to be part of Apple's developer tools, but on my Snow Leopard it resides in /usr/bin)
    Check what it says for 'type' and 'creator'.
    If these are not correct, we've confirmed that that's the reason why they don't show up in your file dialog.
    If the issue is type/creator related, I can think of the following options:
    a) Change your code to accept ANY file type/extension - I suspect this would work (not tested!):
    openFileDialog->AddType( '????' );
    If memory serves right, '????' should be accepted as a wildcard.
    b) correct the file types BEFORE they are viewed in the File Dialog - for example, if these files are in a very specific folder somewhere, you might be able to scan the folder, and correct their type and creator (e.g. iterate through all extensionless files in folder 'xyz' and change their type and creator). A lot depends on how those files get there, and whether they are tied to a specific folder or not - are they 'old' files, or are they being generated in some workflow? If they're all over a user's system or all over a file server, such pre-scanning and cleaning up file types approach will be a no-go.

  • HELP IR Download filtered saved report to CSV

    Hi there
    My enquiry is to do with the saved reports feature in Interactive Reports Apex 4.1
    I create a default IR report and then I subsequently define a filter on this report effectively limiting the displayed output to the rows of data I want to see. I then save the report which is now a 'private' report. If I run the 'saved' (with the filter condition) IR report it displays the data correctly, with the 'saved' report displaying the correct data on the screen I then click Actions->Download and then select CSV - the entire 'primary' report is downloaded -- The filter is ignored!!! Surely the Actions->Download should 'know' that I want download the report that's being displayed (just run) on the screen?
    I think that when you click on the CSV icon the report is re-submitted - How can I get the CSV download to apply the filter that I've defined in the saved report.
    I've searched this forum and found the following similar question being asked
    Re: Problem with export from a saved interactive report
    Interactive Report Download to csv problem
    how to download only filtered data in csv?
    Re: Download Saved Report in IR 4.1
    Thanks in advance
    PS: Is the above an undocumented feature of Apex IR Reports?
    Edited by: boketi on Sep 25, 2012 7:05 AM

    Hi Sathish,
    Thanks for your comment.
    I agree with just a 'default' report the CSV download always gives what is displayed on the screen. If you then define another report with a filter condition and run this 'private' report 'sometimes' the CSV download gives the origional primary report, ignoring the filter condition. Please see the attached links as other people are also getting the same problem.

  • IR Saved Report  - Download to CSV downloads Primary Report

    Hi there
    I'm using Apex 4.1, I login to my Apex application NOT using the developer interface (the developer buttons are not visable at the base of the page) as an end user would see.
    If I run an IR report and then create a filter on the Primary report the report runs OK. I then click Actions -> Download and then Download the report output to a CSV file (correctly filtered) to a Excel spreadsheet. I then Save this report giving the report a Name and Description. I then logoff from the Apex application. So far so good.
    I then login back on to my Apex Application. When I choose and run the Saved Report (described above - not the Primary report) the saved report runs correctly (applying the correct filter condition), HOWEVER when I then click on Actions - Download I seem to get the Primary report downloaded as a CSV file into my Excel spreadsheet - the filter condition that is applied to the saved rerport is ignored for the Downloaded CSV file. The File Downloaded is a new CSV file generated in Apex as reported in my Firefox 'Downloads' list.
    Does anyone know if this is a Bug or have I not set up the IR correctly.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi Mehabub,
    Many thanks for the quick response.
    Did you test this in version 4.1 of Apex? I logged on to Oracle's 4.2 Early Adopter Beta Site and did the same and the IR works fine! Maybe it's a strange problem in 4.1 although I doubt it as with such a problem there would be a lot more noise on this forum. Could this be related to the 'theme' that I'm using? As the theme I'm using was origionally developed for Apex 3.2 and I don't think IR reports were around in 3.2?There is a good chance that it has to do with the theme or the upgrade from Apex 3.2. Interactive reports existed in 3.2 also user defined reports. But a lot of changes were made to the IR logic since 3.2 (introduction of multple standard reports, etc.).
    I just tested your case in my Apex 4.1.1 version in an application that was also upgraded from 3.2. And the data was stored correctly into a csv file.
    But it is useing one of the standard themes that was also updated.
    Did you set the compatibility mode of your application to 4.1?
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21676/apex_util.htm#AEAPI2329
    begin
       apex_util.set_compatibility_mode(<application id>, '4.1');
       commit;
    end; Just because the environment is Apex 4.1 does not mean you application runs in 4.1. mode.

    Your internet connection speed has no effect on Time Machine/Time Capsule backups. Since that is all done locally, over your wireless network you actually do not need an internet connection at all.

    You're asking about the computer's RAM. Increasing that will not increase the size of the internal storage available to the computer. You'd need to replace the HDD/SSD of the Mac, which, depending on what model you have may or may not be possible (with new models of Macs).
