Creating reports using oracle application server

Hello All,
I am a complete newbie with Oracle Application Server(OAS) and Oracle reports. My task is to generate HTML and PDF reports using OAS. The current application has a aspx pages(ASP.NET as front end) which calls a third party tool Fast Radar Report which fetches data as per the user need(like month, day, year, product name....) and displays it in a grid format. I have to remove the FastRadar part and use OAS's OracleAS Reports Services components to generate those reports
I went through chapter 12 of Oracle.Application.Server.10g.Essentials by OReilly 2004 edition
It briefly glances through that part. But, it seems to mention about Oracle Reports something like "Oracle Reports has a wizard-based frontend called Oracle Reports Developer that can build reports. Oracle Reports Developer is part of the Oracle Developer Suite. The reports created with Oracle Reports Developer can be deployed to the Web using OracleAS Reports Services support in Oracle Application Server."
I am unclear what to do. Do I need to create the report format in Oracle Reports using wizard-based frontend called Oracle Reports Developer and then deploy it using OracleAS Reports Services?
Or, is there a way to create the report format using OracleAS Reports Services without using Oracle Reports. I am told we have just OAS installed, don't know if Oracle reports is installed or not as it is done on a remote site.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
One has to develop reports using Oracle Reports developer and then has to deploy it into the application server. To do so you need the Oracle developer suite installed, this has wizards which can be used to develop reports.

please tell me which is the right option?Ideally, you should have two separate server machines.
One for the database server.
One for the Application Server.
The Application Server is basically used for hosting your forms and reports, so you dont have to place the forms and reports on the developer PC or at any other server.

Workspace Issue Using Oracle Application Server

Dear All,
I've configured my Workspace using Oracle Application Server and now I can login to my workspace through this url http://<servername>:7777/workspace/.
But somehow, at my workspace home, I cannot find the folder or Explore inside, which is to see my Financial Reporting.
I'm login using admin and the privileged is already for administrator.
Is there anyone ever face this problem..??
Thanks.

1. Correct the following path
extension_dir = "D:/php/ext"
(if your php is installed in D:/php, the above path is correct.
2. Find the line ;extension=php_oci8.dll
delete comment sign (;) and it will be :
extension=php_oci8.dll

Hi,
Well you just need to create a directory in paste your forms there, and then make an entry in the formsweb.cfg file and forms.conf files. Likewise there are entries for the images and report.

How to create clustering on oracle application server on windows

hi,
i want to know how can i create clustering on oracle application server on windows machine.

I think that you need to configure Web cache for this as a frontend, and two or more servers behind it.

Steps to create a new Oracle Application server

I am in unfamiliar territory and need to create a new Oracle Application Server. I would appreciate any direction or direction to documentation that explains the steps required to establish a new server. Thanks.

William,
Have you looked at the Portal section on OTN? We recently added a whole bunch of information under the documentation section.
It can be found by clicking on Internet Servers under the Products heading on the left hand navigation bar. That page will have a section for Oracle9i Application Server and under that you will see Related Features & Products where there is a link to Portal.

ORA-44356 when running report from Oracle Application Server 10g

All,
We have some reports that we developed using Reports Builder 10g. We use a few program units that run with every record that use the exec_sql package to run dynamic sql in a remote database. Everything runs fine when we test the reports in Reports Builder. After we compile the reports into the .rep format and place them on our Oracle Application Server 10g portal instance, we are running into the subject error when we try to run the report from the website. From the research that I've done, it seems that this error has to do with the use of exec_sql, but there is not too much info on the web regarding this error number. Running a trace when running the report in Reports Builder doesn't show any errors, and to further complicate things, this error only occurs on some reports...others that use the exec_sql package work fine.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be happening?
Thanks for your help,
Tom

Nothing is different between the reports in the exec_sql section. The strange part is that the reports will bomb out seemingly at random, at different times, and during the execution of different program units. I was able to find a work-around using DB Links, but I'd rather not use the DB Link if I can avoid it.

How to create URL in Oracle Application Server ?

Hello,
I would like to know how to create a URL in Oracle Application server (LINUX) so that our application can be invoked from each and every machine in our
local hosting.I expect a quick reply.

You question is not so clear. Basically, after installing infrastructure and middle-tier instances, you can simple run http://localhost:port/appication from any web browser.
If not, what is your requirements?

Using Oracle Application Server -- PHP 4.3 - oci8 -- How to connect to db?

Hi All,
We are running php from Oracle Application server, which means Php version 4.3.
All of the example connection strings I am finding use oci_connect, which is not available in this version.
Can someone provide an example that we could use to connect to an Oracle DB from php for this version?
Much thanks,
~Chris

Error creating connection to Oracle Application Server 10g(10.1.3)

Hey
Im using Oracle JDeveloper 10g and when i tried to create a new connection to Oracle App Server 10.1.3 and test it, I received the following error message
Error while parsing OPMN dump in XML format: XML Parse Exception: tag=[null] Ran out of data, content []
I have no idea what this means and any help on this will be highly appreciated. Thank you
Arjhun

OK, in short:
Cause: Wrong OPMN request port used to configure the connection (third step of "Create Application Server Connection" wizard). You might have kept the default (6003) but your OPMN is configured with different request port.
Solution: Check $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/conf/opmn.xml file and look for entry like this:
<port local="6140" remote="6240" request="6040" />
Create the connection using OPMN request port that is set in opmn.xml file.
Thanks

Login error with correct u/p using Oracle Application Server / BPEL

Hello,
We are using Oracle 11g and BPEL 10.1.3.4. We had everything working fine until earlier this week. We were receiving an exception when accessing the database from our BPEL process.
Unable to establish connection to "iCareConnectionPool". Error message: Exception occurred testing connection. Exception: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied.
I went into the Application Server control and tested the data source and connection pool and they both failed with the login error. The userid and password being submitted is correct. I checked the data-source.xml file and the id/password looked good. Here are the steps I performed.
On BPEL server:
1)     Deleted connection pool iCareConnectionPool, data source, iCareDataSource, and removed /eis/db/iCareDataSource from the DBAdapter.
2)     Created new connection pool – iCareConnectionPool using jdbc:oracle:oci:@//<host>:1521/ORCL with userid IDS
3)     The connection pool test was successful. Clicked finish to create connection pool
4)     From the JDBC resources screen, I tested the connection pool and it failed with invalid logon error.
5)     Modified connection pool to use IDS2 and it worked.
6)     Modified connection pool to IDS and it failed.
7)     Modified connection pool to jimc and it worked.
On Database:
1)     Created new schema/user ICAREIDS
2)     Connected using SQL Developer and I could connect
On BPEL Server:
1)     Deleted connection pool
2)     Created connection pool iCareConnectionPool using jdbc:oracle:oci:@//<host>:1521/ORCL with userid IDS
3)     The connection pool test was successful. Clicked finish to create connection pool
4)     From the JDBC resources screen, I tested the connection pool and it failed with invalid logon error.
5)     Modified connection pool to use IDS2 and it worked.
6)     Created new connection pool TestPool – same results
7)     Tried jdbc:oracle:thin:@//<host>:1521/ORCL - same results
On my local system BPEL server:
1)     Created connection pool iCareConnectionPool using jdbc:oracle:oci:@//<host>:1521/ORCL with userid IDS
2)     The connection pool test was successful. Clicked finish to create connection pool
3)     From the JDBC resources screen, I tested the connection pool and it failed with invalid logon error.
4)     Modified connection pool to use IDS2 and it worked.
5)     Modified connection pool to use ICAREIDS and it failed.
Since it failed on two different BPEL server's, I am wondering if it is something with the database. I can connect using existing schema's but not IDS or any new schemas. However, I can connect to any schema using any other tool like SQL Developer.
Can anyone provide an insight as to what could be happening here.
Thanks,
Jim

I found the problem and wanted to pass on the solution in case any one else runs into this problem.
With Oracle Database 11g the passwords are now case sensitive. Because the BPEL server is using 10g drivers the login fails if you have capital letters in your password.
