Report background engine

hi
i am using reports6i. every time i run a report, the report background engine appears in my task bar. By closing the report, it still persists in the task bar, and i have to close it manually.
Is there any way that by closing the report, the report background engine shuts down automatically.

You can try to add this parameter to the call of report
"oracle_shutdown=yes"
Sorry, but i am not sure of the name of the parameter and i cannot find the reference anywhere. If i find it i will post an update.

CAN NO LONGER SHUT DOWN REPORTS BACKGROUND ENGINE

Hello all...
We are in the process of upgrading our apps to Developer 6.0.
Come to find out that the old method of shutting down the Reports
Background Engine programmatically no longer works. (i.e.
ORACLE_SHUTDOWN=Yes).
Any info would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

The mDNSResponser error has been reported as a problem with "Back To My Mac" and sometimes with Bonjour. There are probably other causes as well, but that's a place to start. You could make sure those services are disabled and check the logs to see if the errors go away.
I suppose that activity like this could stall a shutdown also, but I usually see the shutdown problem with devices not behaving and allowing the system to do an orderly shutdown.
Another test method that could point you directly to the OS or a 3rd party application would be to create another user on your machine and see if that user has the same issues.
Just because something worked before doesn't mean that a recent update or other change hasn't caused a problem. Are you using a wireless connection or hardwired? If you are wireless then you could also stop or turn off the wireless connection before trying to shutdown to see if it could be part of the problem.
The trick to begin troubleshooting a problem is to remove the variables, see if something changes, and then decide what to do about it or look for help with that particular system or sub-system.

How to close "Reports Background Engine" automatically

Dear Sir,
I wanna close "Report Background Engine" automatically after closing the report.
I tried to add the following parameter to close it in the caller form, but it didn't work:
add_parameter(p1, 'oracle_shutdown', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'Yes') ;
Waitting for Help!

Hi,
I think the problem might be with oracle_shutdown being in small case letters or you are using a version of forms6 or 6i that this line doesn't work due to a bug via Oracle in the engine ..
Here is my line to shut down the report background engine.
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'ORACLE_SHUTDOWN',TEXT_PARAMETER,'Yes');
Thanks

Report Background Engine Memory Increasing on Reports 6i

Hi... we recently upgraded our ERP system from Developer 2000 to 6i. Some of our functions require many reports to print at once (labels, invoices, pick tickets, etc).. What we've noticed is that when we do this, the report background engine increases in memory significantly and does not release the memory when finished.... and can cripple the work station.
We know we can issue the Oracle_shutdown parameter to close the RBE after each report, but are there any other options as we feel this may slow down our printing?
Thanks,
Scott

If you use "dynamic" ref cursor, your package specification must have "dynamic" ref cursor type for (dynamic) query
(from 9i we can use predefined SYS_REFCURSOR built-in data type) and "static" ref cursor type for Report Layout.
SELECT statement in "dynamic" ref cursor must have the same number and type of columns as "static" ref cursor type.
And, of course, your package must be stored (=database) package, because PL/SQL engine in Reports 6i is v.8.0
but "dynamic" ref cursor is a new feature of PL/SQL v.8.1.

if you submit a job to the reports server and the first parameter in the parameterlist is

then the RBE will shut down.

Closing Reports Background Engine from VB

I have a Visual Basic 6 application that runs Reports 6 reports with the ActiveX control Rwsxa60.ocx. When you close the application, the Reports background engine is still open. Is there a way to close the engine through VB? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

you can not close the RBE from reports as it would require a report to be executed ... i guess you get the problem.
the only way to close the RBE is from forms.

I guess it's designed so that it does not have to reload the Background Engine everytime you run the next report.
Maybe in your case you do not run reports frequently, but in our office report runs are quite often so it's a feature that is quite welcomed.

Close Reports Background Engine from reports

Hi,

Report Background Engine Taking long time to open

I am seeing this problem. When I run a report (in forms 6i), I get a "FRM-41211: Integration error: SSL failure running another product". The Report background engine doesn't come up right away... looking at the system process the RBE starts using almost 50% of the CPU and takes about 10 min to come up. If I run it on my local machine, just running the executable (c:\oracle6i\bin\RWRBE60.EXE) it comes up right away... on this users it doesn't. We think it may be something blocking it... anyon ehave any suggestions?
Thanks,
Scott

Hello
I recently had that same problem with FRM-41211 error. It turned out eventually that the culprit was newly installed HP Deskjet printer on that employees computer. When I removed the printer and uninstalled its driver reports started to work normally. Hope that helps.

Report background engine not generated

Hi Friends,
I have installed Developer 6i -Forms and Reports.
When I try to run a report in an aplication after giving parameters in the paraform it gives an error illegal operation for rwbe60 it doesn't generate the background engine and so the report in not run.
If i run the same report through report builder it runs but no report background engine is generated.
Pls give a solution uf anyone can.
Thanks in advance
Manoj

Hi,
Add the following:
add_parameter(pl_id, 'ORACLE_SHUTDOWN', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'Yes');
Note, the 'Yes' is case sensitive. The 'y' must be upper case followed by lower case 'es'.
run_product(REPORTS, '<repname>', SYNCHRONUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl_id);

Report Background Engine Crashes

I have a problem with Report Background Engine. When I try running a report through forms, the Report Background Engine and the Forms Runtime hangs. And If I End Task the Forms Runtime, the forms runtime closes and the background engine shows the report properly. Now I am not able to run reports properly from the Forms.
In my coding I use RUN_PRODUCT for calling the report from the forms. The O/s is Windows 98.
Please provide me with a solution asap.

Please apply latest 6i patchset and try. (Yours is very old. Latest is 6.0.8.0.24. So many bug fixes have gone in since your patchset)
