Error publishing reports from BW

Hi,
I am facing some issues while publishing reports from BW system. I have taken care of all the settings mentioned in Integration Kit guide. We are using BOXI 3.1 SP3 OS:windows 2008 (64-bit)
The error that we are getting is:
"0000000001 An error occurred when retrieving the role metadata for YBW_BO_CONTENT_PUBLISHER. Returned with RFC code 18 and message: See RFC trace file or SAP system log for more details"
I have enabled the trace also, still not able to find the root cause.
Need help urgently. Thanks.
Amit Tewatia

Hi Startos,
I have matched the auth. as per the admin guide, everything is fine with the role. I have checked the trace file logs, part of which is below:
"Starting up callback server at 10.239.30.2 sapgw00 with prog-id SEGIDC8BBB5A3
GetRfcHandle() returned with handle 0
Connection cloning failed. Message: See RFC trace file or SAP system log for more details
ERROR: .\job_defs.cpp 52: l_rfcDownloadRoleMdata failed with return code l_rcRfc = 18 Exception:
Leaving job processor CPubJobGetRoleMetaData(YBW_BO_CONTENT_PUBLISHER)"
No idea why it calling this IP. This is not the IP of our BW server. please suggest where to check for this.
Regards,
Amit

Invoking XML Publisher Report from PL/SQL

Hi,
I have a PL/SQL procecedure which invokes the Concurrent Request for the XML Publisher Report. This one finishes with a warning and I get 'Unable to publish output' when I try to view the output. Exact Error: "Unable to find the published output for this request "
But if I run the same report using Concurrent program, the Report executes with no error. Also the desired output is coming. I am not sure where I am doing wrong in code.
My code which invokes the XML Publisher Report (from PL/SQL package)is something like this:
declare
x boolean;
l_no_of_copies varchar2(45);
l_printername varchar2(45);
l_print_style varchar2(45);
l_result boolean;
y number;
begin
x := fnd_request.add_layout (template_appl_name => 'XXTMG', template_code => 'XXT_5001_BOL_T', template_language => 'EN', template_territory => 'US', output_format => 'XML');
l_no_of_copies := fnd_profile.VALUE ('XXTMG_SH_BOL_REPORT_NO_OF_COPIES');
l_printername := fnd_profile.VALUE ('XXTMG_SH_BOL_REPORT_PRINTER');
l_print_style := NULL; --For setting the Printer Options
l_result := fnd_request.set_print_options (l_printername, l_print_style, l_no_of_copies, TRUE, 'N');
l_result := fnd_request.add_printer (l_printername, 0);
y := fnd_request.submit_request ('XXTMG', 'XXT_5001_BOL', '', TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'), FALSE, 'CH-120079') ;
end;
Please let me know where I might be going wrong
Thanks

Hi Sumit,
You can try with this code:
exec dbms_application_info.set_client_info(org_id)
exec fnd_global.APPS_INITIALIZE(user_id,resp_id,appl_id);
declare
x boolean;
l_no_of_copies varchar2(45);
l_printername varchar2(45);
l_print_style varchar2(45);
l_result boolean;
y number;
begin
x := fnd_request.add_layout ('XXTMG' --template_appl_name
          ,'XXT_5001_BOL_T' --template_code
          ,'en' --template_language
     ,'US' --template_territory
     ,'XML' --output_format
if (x=TRUE) then
y := fnd_request.submit_request (
                    'XXTMG'           --application
                    ,'XXT_5001_BOL'      --program
                    ,SYSDATE          --start_time
                    ,FALSE               --sub_request
                    ,'CH-120079'          --argument1 (Program's Parameter)
if y>0 then
          dbms_output.put_line('Request ID '||y);
end if;
end if; --if (x=TRUE) then
end;
Make sure that program has only one input parameter. If program has other parameters then you can pass those parameters like argument1, argument2... etc.
Now you can see this submited request in your application using your user id. If you able to see your request in concurrent request then you can add printer parameters in this programs.
You don't need to pass all 100 parameters.
I am executing many programs/reports using this code.
Thanks

Hi,
I tried the way suggested by Anil in the above link as well today, but still am getting the same error while openning the pdf .
Dont know why it shows error that either the file is not a supported file type or because the file is damaged.
Please suggest way to solve this error or some other way of calling xml report from OAF page.

Deploying BI publisher report from OEM plug-in

Hi!
I am a bit confused about how to deploy & access BI publisher report from the plugin I develop
I've found only the http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e25161/bi_pub.htm and am a bit confused
What I did:
1) Integrated BI publisher with OEM
2) Developed a BI publisher report
3) Downloaded 2 files : xdoz and xdmz (DataModel & report)
4) made folder structure
/bipublisherreports/
/EM_Datamodels
5)packed into jar
jar cf myjar.jar ./bipublisherreports
6)put jar into ../oms/reports/emreports
7)written report.xml (in ../oms/reports/) file:
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8' ?>
<BIPublisherReports
xmlns="http://<what ip is here???>/DataCenter/BIPublisherReport">
<ReportFile relativePath="emreports" fileName="myjar.jar"/>
</BIPublisherReports>
The plug-in does not pass validation...
cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'BIPublisherReports'. for the MDS id report
Error is ungooglable =(
Can anybody help or point to some clear doc?

cd /tmp
mkdir STAGE
cd STAGE
mkdir bipublisherreports
cd bipublisherreports
mkdir EM_Datamodels [notice the underscore]
mkdir "My Sample Report" [notice, the quotes are necessary since the directory name contains spaces]
The datamodel needs to go in the following directory:
-------------- "bipublisherreports/EM_Datamodels/My Datamodel.xdmz" [there is an underscore between EM & Datamodels]
The reports go in a report directory, for example:
--------------- "bipublisherreports/My Sample Report/My Report.xdoz" [use spaces here wherever you prefer]
Make sure your report refers to the datamodel in the right location. So, in BIP, when editing the report, use the above folder names, under the 'Enterprise Manager Cloud Control' shared folder.
For example, your BIP catalog will look like this:
Shared Folders
---Enterprise Manager Cloud Control
-------- EM_Datamodels
-------------- My Datamodel
-------- My Sample Report
-------------- My Report
You then create a jar file with this:
cd /tmp/STAGE
jar cvf myemreports.jar bipublisherreports
Now, you need to make your bip reports part of your plugin source code.
You put your report.xml in your sysman/metadata/bipublisherreport [note the singular] directory.
For example:
<BIPublisherReports
xmlns="http://www.oracle.com/DataCenter/BIPublisherReport">
<ReportFile relativePath="emreports" fileName="myemreports.jar"/>
</BIPublisherReports>
You then create a subdirectory, sysman/metadata/bipublisherreport/emreports
And you put your myemreportrs.jar file here.
You then rebuild your opar using standard EM procedures.
When a customer later on instals your plugin, the BIP reports that go with the plugin are installed into the EM database repository automatically.
they can simply do this to deploy the bi publisher reports from em to BIP at any point:
emcli deploy_bipublisher_reports -plugind="my.sample.plugin" -pluginversion ="12.1.0.3.0" [-force]
The -force operation overwrites the reports.
See the complete help text like this:
emcli help deploy_bipublisher_reprorts
If they have not yet configured BIP with the configureBIP script, this deploy step happens automatically when they run configureBIP.

BW - EP Connection to Publish Reports From BW

We have implemented Enterprise Portal 6, and are running BW 3.5
I have been trying set up the connection between the 2 systems, so that I can publish reports from BW to EP
SSO between EP and BW is working - I can create a BW iview, or run a BW transaction without having to sign on again to the BW server.
I have checked the RFC connection from BW to EP using transaction SM59, and it all seems to be working fine.
When I am in the Web Application Designer in BW, there appears the option to Publish to Enterprise Portal 6.0. I can see the destination that I created to point to EP, but I can't see any roles/folders etc within the portal.
I have been through all of the documents that I have found in SAPHelp on configuring the connection, but have still had no luck.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Are there some permissions that I need to set up on either BW or EP before this will work?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Regards
Richard

Thanks very much for your assistance!!
Deepu:
Thanks for pointing me to the note - that looks like it could be helpful - I need to talk to our basis adminstrator about a couple of things, and he is away for a couple of weeks, so this problem will probably be on hold for a bit now.
Ashwin:
Thanks - I've checked the SSO to BW, and can see all of the BW reports in the BW repository in EP. My personal folders are all set up, but are empty.
I really appreciate your help on this guys. I'll try the changes in the OSS note (but won't be able to do this for a while), and will let you know if it is successful.
Regards
Richard
PS. I'm really sorry, but I don't seem to be able to allocate points for your answers - there are no radio buttons displaying on the screen for some reason - I'll see if I can contact SDN to get this sorted out.

Open BI Publisher Report From Standard Report Link

I am having problems opening a bi publisher report from a colomn link in a standard report.
My standard report is
select reg_id, frg_no
from my_tableThen in the REG_ID column, I place the following in the URL link.
javascript:popupURL('BI_URL.Guest/MERCURY/FORM73/FORM73/FORM73.xdo?_xpt=1&P_REG_ID=&#REG_ID.&_xt=FORM73_xf=rtf');Once I click on the link the BI Publisher report opens in a pop up window, but does not display any data, ie, it does not recognise #REG_ID.
Any help appreciated

How to generate XML Publisher report from PLSQL Stored Procedure in APPS

Hi,
I have concurrent program of type PLSQL Stored procedure.I need to generate XML Publisher report from the same.I have changed the output of the concurrent program as "XML" but when I tried running it,the XML tags are not generated.Due to this I am unable to create the template.Its a urgent issue.
Please help me out .
Thanks in advance.
Kaveri

Hi Kaveri
Sadly there is nothing magic about that output field. The only program type that you can flip it to XML and then magically get XML is for Oracle Reports. For plsql you will need to recode the plsql to generate XML rather than text that you have now.
You have some options, best option first:
1. Move the sql to a data template - check the user guide and blog for help or
2. Use SQL XML or XMLGEN (not great for large datasets) or
3. Use dbms_output.put_line and write the XML file manually - not performant at all

Run BI Publisher report from an application directly to a printer.

Dear All,
I have an HTML page (with JavaScripts),
I want to Run BI Publisher report from this page directly to a printer. (and send parameters).
Can anyone help me, and send me Demo URL or Demo code to do this?
Regards,
Tovit

Tovit
you are going to have build out a servlet that the page can call. The servlet will need to implement the supported web services to schedule a report. The schedule can include the delivery options ie to a printer. So you would create a schedule that runs the report immediately via the scheduler and then to the printer.
I dont currently have any servlet demos but the services are pretty well covered in the user docs.
check them out and give it a try, if you get stuck let me know

Hi -
From the error "The external code list ", it looks like ECL is not installed or not available with ecs.
1. Have you installed ExternalCodeList when you installed your Document Editor?
2. If not, install it, recreate ecs, xsd files. And rerun the transactions. That should fix your issue.
Thanks,
Kathar
