How to convert RDF file to Labview File

I am trying to open a RDF file in Labview. What are some steps I can take to allow Labview to open the RDF file.

You mean RDF as in Resource Description Framework ? You can use XML parser in Files->XML->XML Parser palette.

Faizan,
its the copy of the post in the forms forum.
Go to the menu File-->Administration-->Compile Report or use the shortcut key Ctrl + T . then it will ask to generate the REP file. select the path where you want to save the rep file.

Dos2unix doesn't convert some RDF files to BINARY...

Hi,
I have a peculiar issue with a couple of RDF's.
My scripts copies all the files to a temp directory; move them to the relevant tops/paths and then do a "dos2unix" on the RDF and RTF files.
Majority of the reports work fine when this is done.
But this doesn't work fine for 2 RDFs.
1) I have customized AR Customer Invoice program (RAXINV_SEL.rdf).
Once i run the installation scripts, it copies everything and does a dos2unix on RDF and RTF files. I can see the custom RDF (XX_RAXINV_SEL.rdf) in $CUSTOM_TOP/reports/US directory.
It doesn't even throw any error when i run the below command in the Custom_Top.
[chundurk-DEV]/u01/oracle/EBSDEV/apps/apps_st/appl/xxabc/12.0.0/reports/US > dos2unix XX_RAXINV_SEL.rdf
dos2unix: converting file XX_RAXINV_SEL.rdf to UNIX format ...
[chundurk-DEV]/u01/oracle/EBSDEV/apps/apps_st/appl/xxabc/12.0.0/reports/US >
But when i run the report, It thows the below error:
REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
REP-0110: Unable to open file '/u01/oracle/EBSDEV/apps/apps_st/appl/xxbwp/12.0.0/reports/US/XX_RAXINV_SEL.rdf'.
When i drag the RDF to $CUSTOM_TOP/reports/US in BINARY Mode using FTP, the report works perfectly fine.
2) This is happening the same way for one of my custom reports too.
We've developed about 50-60 reports and all of them work fine, except these 2 reports.
Please suggest. Thanks in advance for your help.

Kesava

Gareth,
Lets ignore the functionality of migration tool for now; its happening the same when i do it directly using SSH Secure Shell Unix & FTP tool.
The steps i generally follow to migrate the reports are provided below:
1. Logged in to SSH Secure Shell Unix & FTP tool.
2. Created a temporary folder say 'reports' in /home/user directory.
3. Drag all the report files to /home/user/reports directory in default mode i.e., ASCII (Migration tool ClearQuest also does the same).
4. Then provide permissions on these files:
chmod 755 *.*
5. Run the shell Script:
090xxbwp_inv_mov_apps.sh apps apps ghoord01:1521:EBSDEV.
Shell script just has the commands shown below:
1. cp -f 090XXBWP_INV_MOV.rdf $XXBWP_TOP/reports/US/XXBWP_INV_MOV.rdf
cp -f 090XXBWP_INV_MOV.rtf XXBWP_INV_MOV.rtf
2. FNDLOAD $1/$2 O Y UPLOAD $FND_TOP/patch/115/import/afcpprog.lct 090XXBWP_INV_MOV_CP.ldt - CUSTOM_MODE=FORCE
FNDLOAD $1/$2 0 Y UPLOAD $XDO_TOP/patch/115/import/xdotmpl.lct 090XXBWP_INV_MOV_XML.ldt - CUSTOM_MODE=FORCE
3. dos2unix $XXBWP_TOP/reports/US/XXBWP_INV_MOV.rdf
dos2unix XXBWP_INV_MOV.rtf
4. chmod 755 $XXBWP_TOP/reports/US/XXBWP_INV_MOV.rdf
chmod 755 XXBWP_INV_MOV.rtf
5. XDOLoader command to attach the RTF File to XML Template Skeleton.
Once this is done; It works perfectly fine for all the reports (RDF's), except two of them.
For the two reports that doesn't work; it thows the below error when the report is ran in APPS:
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'XXBWP_INV_MOV.rdf'.
REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
REP-0110: Unable to open file '/u01/oracle/EBSDEV/apps/apps_st/appl/xxbwp/12.0.0/reports/US/XXBWP_INV_MOV.rdf'.
Workaround currently in Use:
Transfer the RDF file manually in BINARY MODE to $XXBWP_TOP/reports/US directory and the issue is resolved.
Request you to let me know if you can provide me with any permanant solution for this.
Thanks,
Kesava

Why do i always get conversion failure when converting pdf files to xls in exportpdf program?

I have had export pdf for months. I cannot export pdf files to excel files. It always says conversion failure. Anyone have any idea why this is happening? I am so frustrated! This was supposed to make my payroll reports easier, but it has not helped at all.

Hi denise/sharon,
I can understand your frustration. Are you converting via the ExportPDF website, or from within Adobe Reader? Does the conversion failure occur every time that you try to convert a file (has it ever worked for you)?
Since you're talking about payroll, I'm assuming that you're accessing ExportPDF from a corporate computer. You may want to check with your IT department to make sure there are no firewall/proxy settings that limit your access to the Internet.
Also, make sure that you're using a supported web browser. You can find a list here: System Requirements | Adobe Acrobat Pro and Online Services
Finally, if you're using Reader, you can try disabling OCR (optical character recognition) by following the steps in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

Error when trying to convert excel files to pdf

I'm getting the following error when trying to convert .xls and .xlsx files to pdf, using the "Create PDF" option:
Error message from the primary converter:
ALC-PDG-010-012-PDFMaker reported an error while printing the document.
Word, Powerpoint and Text files convert without any issues. Also I'm able to opent the excel files and convert them to pdf using the acrobat option in excel.
Livecycle Version: 10.0.2, GM
MS Office Version: 2007
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Suhail N.

It is always difficult when you need to convert multiple xls files to pdf or multiple sheets to pdf. If you have a single file to convert then the best method would be to copy your data to doc file and then convert it into PDF . If you have multiple files to convert then it is really difficult to convert all the files manually. Then the better method would be to use converter tool to convert excel to pdf . By doing this you can convert many files in just few seconds.

.RDF file: Need info

Hi,
I have a .rdf file but I don't have report builder installed in machine. Is theere any way to view the underline sql in the data model?
I heard that there are some options where rdf can be converted to rtf file and then in microsoft word the underline query can be visible. Is it tru?
Thanks

Actually for that also you need Report Builder / the related executables.
Check the following links.

Oracle rdf file formula column long value in to XML Data

Hi,
I converted a rdf report to xml publisher report. The report output(XML Data) is not complete as one of the column in the report is very long. How the xml data file can get this long value with out aborting.
Thanks,
HC

Hi Hussein,
If I use "set long 5000000" then I am getting a compilation error in Report Builder. Also I tried to use TO_CLOB, but that didn't work as the report builder is 6i. When I open the report in 9i, the code was compiled with TO_CLOB, but while closing the Report Builder, it still asks me do you want to save the report. If I say yes and copy the .rdf file to unix and run the program, the log file says, there is uncompiled pl/sql code exists. Not sure why I get this error, even though I compile the report, it asks me to save again.
Thanks,
HC

Put report .rdf file and .xml customization

hi frnds,
where can i keep .rdf file and .xml file (for customization)? shall i keep on application server? now, to generate report i've written one script ...where can i keep this?
-bhavin

Hi Tim,
Context: R12 France Telecom (FT) migration from 11i
FT Reports are complex and the quantity of data / size of files generated by reports can reach up to 20Go. So I need to convert RDF to DATA Template because RDF can not generate some so big files (limit=2Go in 11i and may be 10Go in 12)
I experience some troubles / issues / limits with reports conversion to XML.
1 - some Data templates are not generated because of error : [052107_102109040][][EXCEPTION] java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index: 0, Size: 0. I sent you 2 mails in the past with error detail but have no answer.
2 - Data Templates are not directly usable because Reports include call to packages stored in PLL files. Pakages definition are well include in XML file generated by Report converter (1st step of conversion) but are not take in account when PL/SQL routine generation (Data template generation).
Can you help me especially for the 1st issue
I'd like to show a XMLP demo to FT using the Data source generator XDODTEXE in GL. I see XDOGLDEMO and GLGENJRNDT concurrent programs but there is no Data Definition / XML Data Template associated. Can you tell me if it exists a Data Template and where it can be retrieved from.

REP-1057 Error trying to open a rdf file

Hi,
i have an rdf file that works fine when run from applications (11.5.9). I have to make some changes to the report but when I try to open it in reports developer (6i) I get the error
"Rep - 1057.....is not a valid report builder file'..
Any way around it?
Thanks

Since it runs in Apps, it cannot be corrupted. Maybe there was a problem in copying the file to your PC? I would also say this but i asked in the start that the file is converted to the latest version or not and the answer was that file created in the 6i version. So, i thought that the file in which he is trying to make changes it is in 6i as backup and the file which he is using to run the application it is the separate one.
And i know if the file is running in the application it can not be corrupted but why i mentioned about the corruption i explained above.

Exporting Queries from Developer Reports .rdf file

Is there a way I can extract the queries from the Developer Reports .rdf file.
We have the reports on a NT File server from where the users access the reports. We do not have the Report tables installed in the database.
We are using Developer Reports 3.0
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chegi Reddy

This isn't possible directly. You could use the conversion utility to convert the rdf files to rex files (textual representations), or XML files with the 9i release, and then parse these files to get the queries. Note that since rex is considered an 'internal' representation there's no documentation on the structure, but it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out where the queries are.
Hope this helps,
Danny
