How to Deploy Forms on web and Run report in Web browser

Hi all,
I am wondering how to run forms from the web and run report on web .. can u pl. brief me out and tell any source if i can reach and study...

You have to install Oracle Forms server and Oracle reports server. Download the documentation about these products from Forms
OTN site.

Browser Time out in Reports (using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to call reports)

When running a big report which takes a long time to run, it finishes on the report server but in the browser the screen is stuck at the parameter form, you don't see the report output. It's as if the browser has timedout. Is there a solution to this?
I am running reports using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT only - through a URL. This seems to be a huge drawback of using this method.

Is the browser launching?
If it is have you tried a show source on the browser window?
Sometimes if you open an XML file in a browser you get a blank page but the XML is there. Something to do with the XML format I think. I'm no expert on XML just a behaviour I have observed.

Run Report in Web

Dear All,
My client has got requirement for some Dashboards development which I will be doing with WAD and also they want to see all the reports developed using Web Analyzer.
We do not have Portal.
Can we excute reports in Web Analyzer ??
To run WAD Applications is portal mandatory??
I have gone through forum but did not get any thing solid.
I have spoke to my basis consultant he says Portal is mandatory. Client does not agree with that.
Please share your expereinces regarding this.
Many Thanks.
Cheers,
Neel.

Yes you can run the reports in WEB analyser. but for that, you have to install Java stack for the instance.
Please install the java stack for your server and configure the SSO(SINGLE SIGN ON) settings with your ABAP stack.
Then publish the reports everything in the portal, then you can view the reports through WEB analyser.
Yes ofcourse, for WAD application, portal is must. WAD is nothing WEB application designer. Java stack will enable to access through WEB.
Please tell your client that, portal is must for accessing report through WEB analyser.
Hope this would help you.

What is the best UI for running reports?

Based on my experience, am I correct in assuming the Silverlight UI is still the only one supported for running reports?
Running reports in the html5 UI is not a comparable experience at all.... yet .
Which UI do you use for your implementation?

I agree 100%... HTML5 UI for Reports is very clunky, slower and not intuitive when Silverlight's is much better.
We actually use the Excel Add-In a lot now, we just build the report's shell in C4C quickly and then do our View/Selection customization in Excel. We find it quite fast and everyone knows how to play with Excel reports quickly.
Since 1402 I believe, the user-experience in the iPad app SAP Customer Insight is also much better with the introduction of dashboards in HTML5 though.

Running reports on web browser

We here in HCL Technologies are in the process of deploying Dev
2000 applications on Oracle Web Application Server 3.0 installed
on Window NT 4.0 Server.
I have couple of problems which i am reporting to you & i would
like to seek solution for the same.
1. I am able to create/configure report cartidge and to run
simple reports giving output file of size 20kb. The report is
running & getting displayed on the web browser.
But, if the report output is somewhere in the range of 500 or
more KB, than it is observed that full report output file is
generated in the cache directory, but it is not displayed on the
screen, instead a error "Internal error Try Again " is displayed.
Here are some specifications which might help you resolve this
problem
(A) We are using destype=cache, desformat=html
(B) Our NT Server is having a memory (RAM) of 96 MB.
2. Before running the report we want to display the parameter
form for our report, so that the user can input the required
variable parameters. But, instead it is allowing to pass the
parameters through our URL, which is not desirable.
Please, help us in resolving these problems at the earliest.
Awaiting your response.
Regards,
Navneet

Navneet,
I can't help with problem 1, but I cna help with problem 2. If
you are using html files with links to the reports, you can use
the form tag to create the equivalent of the parameter form.
Example:
<form action="http://mot.com/r30ows">
Select the Vendor for which you would like to see contacts for
<input type="hidden" name="server" value="repserver">
<input type="hidden" name="report" value="contact">
<input type="hidden" name="userid" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="destype" value="cache">
<input type="hidden" name="desformat" value="html">
<select name="v_id">
<option value="1">Computer Discount Warehouse</option>
<option value="2">Micro Warehouse</option>
<option value="3">CompUSA</option>
<option value="4">Oracle Corp.</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Run Report">
</form>
V_id in this example is a user defined parameter.
Hope this has helped you.

Regarding running report on web

i am trying to run a report from the web.There are some 13 columns to be displayed in a line.but in the web browser,after 8 columns it goes to the next line.is there anyway to display all the columns in a line ( allowing horizontal scrolling in browser)?
thx

hello,
if you view your report in the web-browser, the page is rendered in the scope of a paper page following the dimensions that are defined in your report.
e.g. if you have set your page-size in the report to be 8.5"x11", your page rendered in the web-browser will be approx. that size. regardless of the space that might be still available in the browser.

Running Reports with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT versus RUN_REPORT_OBJECT

Where I work I work alone on developing and delivering Oracle applications. I've found a way of running reports in 10g over the web using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT, I've embedded my own security in the BEFORE PARAMETER FORM trigger of the reports.
I don't have time to trawl through thousands of pages of documentation and I need to know whether there is a fundamental drawback of using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT over RUN_REPORT_OBJECT? I've got everything working OK in my test environment, but it's not clear reading the Oracle documentation whether there is a major drawback with this method, in particular I'm interested in any performance/load issues. I'm slightly worried because most people seem to use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (which has all sorts of issues, such as parameter form incompatibility etc), I've found that WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT is much easier to implement as it avoid the parameter form issue, displaying the user credentials in the source html and being able to type in any jobid in a url to receive other peoples reports.
I've read as much as I can including the Forms and Reports integration document and the Usability Matrix and can't find anything obvious. I would be very grateful for any comments.

Good call .... I included some of the code from your linked document to create a forms library from which to run reports. This uses the inate ability of reports to generate HTML parameter forms at runtime. Very handy. Most of our reports that we upgaded recently took little or no effort.

Running report with web.show_document

We are using web.show_document to run reports which have parameter forms. destype=CACHE , desformat=pdf . We are also using the javabean which hides the login credentials as a cookie.
The output displays OK then the user wants to email it, so they use the mail button on the adobe reader toolbar.
They are asked whether they want to link or copy even though link does not work.
If they choose copy, the result is an email with an attachment called 'servlet' with no extension.
The recipient of the email has no idea what a servlet is, and more importantly they do not know how to open the file.
Does anyone know how to get around these problems ?

Ino
Your method is fine if run_report_object is used. However, in order to display a parameter form, the report must be run with web.show_document. If web.show document is used twice, first to run the report and then to display it, the second does not wait for the first to finish, even if a synchronize is put between them.
So, as soon as the parameter form appears, the second show_document appears in front of it saying it cannot find the file. Dismissing that allows access to the parameter form, the report runs and gives a success message but no output.

Do anybody has idea why this is happening??

Recommended OPEN CURSORS setting for Oracle serving a web app

G'day
Hopefully Phil is still lurking here, so might see this. Or anyone else that knows about Oracle.
I've always thought the default for "maximum pooled statements" setting for an Oracle DSN - which is 300 - is way too low to be sensible for a web app (which, let's face it, any CF DSN is going to be used for!). I usually find I end up with it up around 1000-2000, depending on the sizeof the app, and how busy it is.
I'm adequate with monkeying around with Oracle, and have needed to do a moderate bit of that sort of thing in our dev environment, but I am by no means a DBA, so it's all very seat-of-the-pants.
So I'm keen to know what other people have their maximum pooled statements / open cursors setting set to for their Oracle-driven web sites/apps.
One of the reasons I'm asking is that I wonder if it might be worth while to suggest the default for CF9 is upped to 1000 or so..?
Thoughts / comment?
Adam

I personally would not set the limit any higher than 300, and I'd consider keeping it even lower.
Each pooled query / open connection is imposing resource-burdens on both the CF and the Oracle servers by creating what might be thought of as "a very crowded restaurant." Most of them are just standing around, but they nevertheless are occupying the restaurant, and the potential exists that every one of them might try to order a burger-and-fries at exactly the same time.
The "number of pooled statements" should be such that your SQL-server can actually handle that number of simultaneous requests, both in terms of active searches and of maintaining the still-open result sets. Beyond that point, incoming web requests should be forced to wait. Set an "occupancy limit" to your proverbial restaurant such that everyone could come in and be timely served at the same time.
Categorically, if you plot out response-time graphs about such things (SQL servers, virtual memory subsystems, and so on), they exhibit a fairly-linear performance curve up to a point, after which "the elbow- or knee-point is reached" and beyond that point it becomes exponential in a very, very bad way. I saw this happen in a batch-processing subsystem long ago on a very small mainframe: (yeah, I'm makin' these numbers up...)
Number of Jobs at Once
Completion Time per Job
1
30 seconds
3
40 seconds
8
9 minutes
12
4.5 hours
It was just-about that bad. And what I did to (dramatically...) address the problem was to impose simultaneous-job limits on that subsystem. As long as the number of simultaneous jobs was constrained to "less than 3 at a time," a workload of 12 jobs could be reliably completed in (4 * 40) seconds, whereas if all 12 jobs tried to run at once, the computer would have reason to file a lawsuit for abuse.

FRM-41085 when launching form for running report in headstart

I try to migrate headstart application built in developer 6i, using headstart 5.0 to run on the web, i.e. Oracle application server 10g.When I try to call report, form qms0012f should appear, but then error occurs:
FRM-41085: variable global.cgnv_last_closed_form does not exist
Can someone help me?

Hi,

And after that another error: QMS-00100 Unhandled exception ORA-06502: PL/SQL numeric or value error ORA-01403: no data found in PL/SQL Program Unit qms$form.init
I have deployed this application on a linux appsserver, and it creates this error. However, if I run it on my <font face="tahoma,verdana,sans-serif" size="1" color="#000">windows</font> development environment I am able to open the form. Connected as the same user on the same database.
I compiled the Headstart forms, that are supplied by Headstart itselves, so the form is not generated from Designer.
Anyone any idea? (If there are still some Oracle consultant reading this Headstart forums?)
Kind regards,
WilliamIt's very long now, I have the issue which is similar to what you have faced, Anybody can answer it?

No Authorization to run reports in web

I have the following authorization objects in role.
S_RS_COMP1
S_RS_COMP1
S_RS_ICUBE
Do you have any idea ?
thanks

Hi,
Please give authorization to the user for S_RFC, actvt 16 & function group syst.
If there are still any issues, turm on the st01 trace and ask the user to execute the query in portal. The trace result will help you analyze the missing authorizations.
