Does 6i Reports run in Reports 10g (9.0.4)

Hi Folks,
I have a requirement to install a standalone reports server ie. reports6i which comes with developer 2000 on a HPUX machine. I don't find developer 2000 software for HPUX in oracle site. I think it is superseeded with new versions, so i have downloaded Developer suite 10g (9.0.4).
But i have a question whether i can run 6i reports in the 10g developer suite. Most of the 6i reports are from 11i ebusiness suite instance. Please advise.
Thank you,
Bharath.

whether i can run 6i reports in the 10g developer suiteYes. But be careful you can not go the other way back.

Does anyone have Forms & Reports 10G working properly on Macs?!

In our work enviroment we have about a third of our company working on Macs - currently we have client server forms and reports 6 running on a citrix server for the Mac users. I am in the process of upgrading our systems to 10G (10.1.2) in the hope of being able to get rid of the citrix servers and have everyone running straight through a browser. However looking at the supported versions:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/files/as_certification_r2_101202.html#BABDECDG
it seems that only Safari 1.2 is supported on Macs. Now I find it very difficult to believe that many/any working enviroments are running Safari 1.2 as it is updated via security updates OS updates etc and they are currently upto 2.0.3. As a result within our company Firefox is the browser we use as we have direct control over updates. Testing through firefox 1.5 is giving me font issues and you cannot click into a specific record on a multi-row block, having problems trying to get reports running, logging on etc. I would like to know whether anyone is running forms and reports 10G on Macs in a production enviroment and what browser / java versions are used and does everything work as it should. Thankyou

Hi, perhaps I haven't been clear enough yet I'm getting the same errors that I have listed twice thus far on safari! - and here is why we don't use safari
"As the standard Mac desktop here is set up as a Windows peer in what is technically a "Windows-only" environment, we get some issues where some parts of OS X doesn't play nice with the infrastructure. The way our build is tailored, most of our users don't see the integration "joins" and their Macs operate as they'd expect, which is how we like it too.
That doesn't mean we don't get occasional problems with OS updates and our infrastructure. For example... Apple will often put a bunch of security patches, application fixes and system revisions into their Software Updates.
On a standalone system, or "vanilla" networked Macs, this is great, as you get a bunch of timely updates in one easy-to-install bundle. Unfortunately, our Mac OS X build is NOT a standard one and some parts of Apple's updates can cause us problems.
Safari, while being the best browser experience on the Macintosh for most people, suffers a lot from our environment's strictures. You may know that Safari was already drawing heat from end users over its apparent lack of support for some websites (particularly personal banking), so the switch to Firefox was happening anyway. We pushed it on once we got hit with the most recent problems with Safari and proxy authentication. When we stripped away our general blind fanaticism for Apple-made software, we realised that the Volvo alternative (Firefox) was actually a more solid performer.
Finally, as the browser is a pretty important piece of software for us (aside from browsing it's a method of deploying apps), we think it makes good sense to decouple it from the OS. With Safari we don't have the same control over versioning as we do with Firefox, while Firefox has most of the Safari features that our 10.3 userbase can access."
So can anyone help with the specific errors I listed above thanks.

Running Reports 10g on Apps Server

We have a Windows 2003 apps server running Oracle Forms and Reports 10g.
We are having a problem running reports in Oracle 10g, and believe it to be something to do with the configuration files. Currently, we can run the test report through Enterprise Manager using both the default reports service and the one that we have created. However we are unable to run our own reports through forms.
To check that there was nothing wrong with our forms, we copied one of the reports into the â¦\forms10g\reports\samples\demo folder to see if we could run it through Enterprise Manager. However, we get the following error:
Rep-110: Unable to open file â¦â¦
Rep-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
Rep-0110: Unable to open file â¦...
We then renamed the test.rdf file and tried to run that. Again we got the above message. Next we tried again to run test.rdf, even though this no longer existed, and the report ran. This implied that it isn't actually running the report, but has the report output stored somewhere, and it just displays this.
No matter how we try to run reports, and with which reports service, we always get the above error.
So why is it that no reports will run, not even the test one when it is renamed? Is there a configuration setting somewhere?

Hi All,
Hope YOu are fine.
We have running Oracle Forms and Reports Services 10g on Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
The Application Works fine, and reports are generated successfully.
But when we access the same application by using either Linux OS (RHEL 4.0, Ubuntu 6),
The forms works fine but Linux OS could not run the report.
This seems to be a configuration problem.
Any Clues.
Thanks and Looking Forward.

Forms and Reports 10g run on the other client machine

Dear Sir,
Please tell me how to run forms/reports which is compiled/build in ORACLE 10g.
I mean that I have build some forms and reports in Oracle 10g now I want to run them on another client machine without creating oracle application server. Is there any way to run
As example in oracle 6.0 i we only install forms and reports services at client machine and ours froms/ reports are running. Can we do so in 10g also ??
Please guide me about it.
Ghulam Yassen

without creating oracle application server. That is not possible. Forms 10 only runs in web mode, so you need the OAS with the Forms and Reports sever (OAS Enterprise Edition) or the Forms and Reports 10g stand alone server.
in oracle 6.0 i we only install forms and reports services at client machineForms 6i was the last version that you can run in client/server mode.

Report 10g not running

Hi...
I have a llttle problem with a report 10g during it execution...
The error message ... is

Help me please

We need more information to effectively assist you. What platform? Reports Developer Tool or through Application Server? Which 10g version (9.0.4 or 10.1.2)?

Discoverer Viewer(4i) to run Discoverer-reports(10g) with Apps(11.5.0)

We are running Discoverer Viewer(4i) to run Discoverer-Workbooks(10g) with Apps(11.5.0) but we are facing error like 'Unable to fetch workbook' .I guess this is b'coz EUL created in 10g not getting compatible with 4i Discoverer Viewer.
If this is the problem what is my next step?
Can anyone plz help me in detail.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
You would need to upgrade everything to the same level if you want to open Discoverer 10g workbooks. This means your EUL will need to be upgraded and you will need to abandon the 4i server and upgrade to the 10g server.
I would encourage you to do so anyway because 10g is much better than 4i.
Best wishes
Michael

Reports 10g vs the good old days

Having been running reports from forms since the good/old client-server days, reports 10g is both a blessing and a curse. While it's certainly nice not to have to install software on each and every client box, since reports are now kept in cache on the middle tier app server until the cache hits its max size limitation, other users can issue a ?getjobid=nnn and just fish around for reports that others have run. In the good old days, a user would run a report locally on their desktop, that could be printed, and no one else could look at it. Does anyone out there know how or if a report run on the app server can be run just for the user who has access to it, and not be available to anyone who is "fishing" with getjobid? I'd really like to specify, if I could that the report be cached for just a few minutes. Essentially most of our users generate reports only needed by them and they are very dynamic in nature, so storing them isn't really necessary. Any ideas out there?
Thanks in advance.

Use the EXPIRATION parameter to specify how long a report is kept in the cache. See the online help.

DB authentication for Reports 10g

Hi
Following is our environment
Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.2.3.0) - Infrastructure and Middle Tier on same node.
Oracle Database 10g R2 (10.2.0.1.0)
Current Situation
We are running Forms/Reports 10g that were upgraded from 6i Client-Server environment. Everything works fine except for one major issue ie
In our reports server we have defined users with explicit grants on schema specific objects to run reports. This configuration is something I am not comfortable with.
Following is our requirement.
To somehow enable SSO keeping in mind that each DB user has his own set of privileges granted to him via either a role or explicitly. So when he is logged in once to the the application via Forms and try to run some reports, permissions on the objects(tables) called in the report should be checked on the DB level for that particular user unlike what we are doing currently ie created one main user with permissions on all schema objects.
For example
DB User xyz
Grants SELECT ON scott.emp
DB User abc (currently used in the config file of reports server)
Grants SELECT ON scott.emp, scott.dept, scott. xxx, scott.yyy etc
So in above example, in 6i environment, even if user xyz tries to run a report that requires permissions on SCOTT.DEPT table, it will not since user XYZ doesnt have permissions to view DEPT table under SCOTT schema but in 10g this XYZ user will be able to run the report successfully and would be able to view the records. This should be fixed.
Any opinion, comments, links are most welcome.
Thank you

Where is the "Oracle Reports online Help" that contains documentation for CSS Class Name property and the Style Sheet property?
The "Oracle Reports - Building Reports" manual (part# B13895-01) does not have this information. This manual sez to look in "Oracle Reports online Help".

Report 10g

i have system in 6i and i doing migration to 10g
and during the migration process i facing problem in reports
first problem : i call parameter form and when press submit query not running
2nd problem : drill down in report 10g how do this

hi Anuj,
There is a command called rwclient.sh. It submit the report jobs to report server. Through coding(e.g., JAVA) you can schedule this command, so that it should submit the job to the report server at the desired time.
I have also come to know that OAS 10g has the feature of report scheduling. But I dont know exactly you have to do for that.

Report 10g REP-50159

Dear all,
I have installed the Oracle Report 10g R2 on a Windows XP. I have tried to generate a PDF report to the local harddisk through the servlet and it works fine. However, when I set the DesName to a Samba drive and it failed and returned a REP-50159 Executed successfully but there were some errors when distribute the output.
Does any one have any ideas on this?
DesName=d:\test.pdf (works fine)
DesName=z:\test.pdf (fail)
thanks,

Hello,
Reports Server managed by opmn ?
If yes, could you test to start the reports server from a "DOS Window " ?
rwserver server=repserver
opmn is running as a Windows Services and by default , the windows srvices are executed under the user account localsystem who has limited access to network resources ...

Calling Reports 10g from Forms 10g without an app server

Hi
I have Forms 10g, and for development/testing purposes I am able to run a form in my local machine using the standalone OC4J. I needn't to deploy the form to test it.
I can do the same with Reports 10g -- run a report in my local machine without an app server.
However, I could not manage to call a Report from a Form that way, without an app server. It does not seem possible -- is it? Is there a way to set this up using the standalone OC4J or something like that?
Thanks
Luis

Hi
Sorry for the late reply.
Here's how you start the report server from windows XP machine.
1. Choose a unique name for the report server. Eg. <your_pc_name>_repserver
2. As the report server runs in its own process, it can be started by the following command, accessible from the \ bin directory of the
Oracle Developer Suite or Oracle Application Server 10g installation.
rwserver –install <server_name> . It is now treated as a windows service and hence you can stop/start or restart from the services menu.
3. If you want specific settings for your report server, look for the <rep_server_name>.conf file under <orahome>/reports/conf directory, after starting the server from above command. This file is created by oracle automatically, once the rep server gets started.
For more info on this, please refer to white papers on the Forms and reports integration, found on the otn->Forms.
Hope this helps

Oracle Portal, Application Express, Oracle Forms/Reports 10g - which one?

Hi,
I have Oracle 10g database and Application Express installed on one linux box.
second linux box has Oracle HTTP server running from where i call the htmldb pages.
3rd linux box has Oracle Application Server 10.1.2 installed along with SSO, Portal 10.1.4 , Forms Server etc.
Now, i see there are 3 ways i can develop web applications
1. using Application Express and http server which is very basic and simple.
2. using Oracle Forms/Reports 10g and forms/reports server
3. Oracle Portal 10.1.4 in Application Server 10.1.2
Can someone guide me, which one of the above 3 is worth sticking on forever for developing web applications. i am really not sure which one of the above is best for Web developement in terms of long term planning. and i believe all 3 of the above can be integrated with Oracle SSO for authentication.
Can someone guide me please to select one of the above and can you explain me why for my better understanding of the different tools?
Thanks,
Philip.

Hi Philip.
If you already have Oracle Portal, I think that portal is the best solution.
Portal can be integrated with others applications using SSO.
Oracle portal have a lot of features that help you to develop web applications.
If portal does not offer what you want, you can develop your own portlets using java or plsql.
Take a look at the default home page of oracle portal.
Look better the features that portal offer to you.

Formula Columns are not working in Reports 10g

Hi,
We converted the reports developed in Reports 6i to Reports 10g. When we run the report in Reports 10g Builder everything works fine. But when we deploy the same report in Oracle Application Server and invoking the report the formula columns are not working ie., the fields/ placeholder columns which are based on the formula column are not displaying any values in the report.
Please, someone help us in this regard.
Thanks & Rgds,
M T
