Forms running Reports

In Forms 10g when a report is run using Run_Report_Object does the report use the same database session as the form?

No, it runs in a different session.
I'd be glad that someone shows me how to use the same session, so I'd be able to use SESSIONS_PER_USER = 1 in user profile.

Running reports from forms on the web

On forms and reports 6i we used the following code to run reports from forms.
We need to do the same on 9i forms and reports, we are running into problems.
Any help will be appreciated.

Page cannot be displayed while running report in OAS (10.1.2.3)form/report

Hi All,
I have a report which take 4 hrs time to execute the report
If i run this 4 hrs report,the report runs sucessfully when we see in particular
report server in application server.
But, we wont get any pop up to open report after executing sucessfully
at user end, A error message is displayed in only report param page like,
"The page cannot be displayed"
I Think only param page is expired but not form session.
We have also set the parameters like in report/conf/repsername.conf
engineResponseTimeout=30 and <connection maxConnect="200" idleTimeOut="300">
Also,In httpd.conf timeout is 3600 and MaxBlockTimeout in web.xml file
we have set "maxBlockTime" for long running report (4h)
<init-param>
<param-name>maxBlockTime</param-name>
<param-value>12600000</param-value>

Please help me out to solve this issue.

ERROR WHILE RUNNING REPORT THROUGH FORMS.....!

hi all,
ive designed one form in Forms 9i...I'm tryin to run report through a Push button .....report is running well in paper layout through report builder 9i...The problem I'm facing is dat when i pressed button it is giving me error initially as FRM-41214 cannot run report and after that FRM-40735 When button pressed unhandled exception ora-06502.....What could go wrong??... Ive started OC4J instance ....created report object in object nevigator as well and defined basic properties for diff.parameters HTMLCSS,CACHE..etc.,mentioned report path in complete i.e.c:\reports\genbill.rdf ...Can anybody help me out ??? Thnx.!

END;

When a report terminates with an error, REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS returns the value "TERMINATED_WITH_ERROR", which is 21 bytes of data, but rep_status is defined as 20 bytes. The 6502 error is due to the data not fitting the variable.
I recommend wrapping the REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS function with a SUBSTR that limits the data returned to 20 bytes, which will ensure the results fit.
For example:
rep_status := SUBSTR(REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep), 1, 20);

Running report from forms

hi,
I am having problems in running report from form.
I am using oracle 9i on windows 2000 server and no 9iAS at the moment. On client side, i have windows xp and 9iDS installed. I want to run report from forms in 9iDS testing environment.
my forms are running ok but now i need to run report. so what i have done is that i have created a report object in form and following are enteries present in it at the moment.
Name REPORT7
FileName D:\Projects\IBMR\forms\soil_water_quality_data.rdf

i have installed report server with following command
rwserver -install 9irep
i have changed entry in rwservlet.properties like
SINGLESIGNON=NO and i have removed the following entire block of 9irep.conf, which i have read from some documentation

i get the following error message when i run my form
frm-41214 Unable to run report
and then next message is
frm-41217 unable to get report job status
i debugged the report id and it is
9irep_0
returned by Report_Job_Id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(Report_Id);
When I checked the Report Queue Manager
it is showing status like
(9irep)Terminated with error
and detail it shows is
Unable to connect to the specified database.
Now I am wondering what to do next.
any suggestions???????

Hello,
From your description, it seems like the report is faling due to a database authentication problem. When you run your report from Forms, Forms internally passes the its database connection information to Reports automatically. So ensure that you are connected to a valid database in Forms, before the report is called.
Please verify whether a simple report which does not require a database connection, for example, a report containing only a boilerplate text object, is running correctly. Also, in the trigger code that you have specified, you should add the following:
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id, REPORT_DESTYPE, CACHE);
so that the report output gets generated to the server cache, and can be retrieved using rwservlet/getjobid.

FRM-41214: Unable ro run report while calling a report from a form in 9iDS

Am in the process of migrating from Developer 6i client/server to Developer 9iDS on Windows 2000.
I have read through the various postings on this issue & have made changes accordingly. I also referred to the white paper on the Forms/Reports integration.
As I am trying to do a prototype, am compiling my forms/reports on my local machine & not on the apps. server.
I installed a report server on my local machine as,
rwserver -install 9irep
I have defined this as a NT service and it is up & running & so is my OC4J instance.
I have defined a reports object in my Form Builder & set Report Server=9irep,
Destype=Cache,
Execution mode=runtime
Communication_mode=synchronous.
I also removed the /security tag from the <report server>.conf file as suggested in the white paper. Also set the single sign-on to NO for the reports service.
I have replaced my run_product with the run_report_object built-in as follows.
Declare
report_id REPORT_OBJECT;
report_status VARCHAR2(255);
rep_job_id VARCHAR2(255);
Begin
report_id := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('KS'); --Created in form under node "Reports"
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,REPORT_FILENAME,'C:\Kalpana\9i_Prototype\ISSMDLCUST.rdf');
rep_job_id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(report_id);
report_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(rep_job_id);
WHILE report_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
LOOP
report_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(rep_job_id);
END LOOP;
message(report_status); pause;
IF report_status='FINISHED' THEN
Web.Show_Document('http://houwdisndgd01:8888/reports/server/getjobid='
||rep_job_id||'?server=ks');
END IF;
End;
I get an error message "FRM 41214: Unable to run report" right after the call to run_report_object.
Can someone please tell me where am going wrong with my run_report_object built-in? (I also need help writing my web.show document to point it to my local machine/folders).
Thanks
Kalpana

How I have implemented the same and works
Local OC4J is running.
I established a reports server "repserver90" as a service.
I created a report named "C:\TMP\TMP\test_report.rdf"
I created a form with a Reports object with properties:
Name: "EMP"
Filename: "C:\TMP\TMP\test_report.rdf"
Execution mode "Batch"
Communication mode "Sychronous"
Report Destination Type "Cache"
Report Destination Format "HTML"
Report Server "repserver90"
I call the report with the procedure:
PROCEDURE TEST_REPORT IS
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
repid := find_report_object('EMP');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'html');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'repserver90');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no pdeptno='||:dept.deptno);
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
LOOP
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
END LOOP;
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
/*Display report in the browser*/

How to run a silent configuration for Forms and Reports 11g ?

Hi all,
I've run a silent installation for Oracle Forms and Reports 11g R2 in Windows 7 64 bit.
I made it using a response file called install_only.rsp. Now I want to run the configuration also in silent mode.
How can I do it ?
I know that I can use a template called configure_only.rsp. However, i don't know what is the correct syntax for the command to start configuration.
Should I use the same setup.exe installer and inform configure_only.rsp as response file ?
The command below is the appropriate command for this task:
setup.exe -silent -response configure_only.rsp
Or is there another way to be followed?
Thanks a lot.

Alright, I eventually found the answer.
Configuration must be run from directory on windows.
Command is shown below:
<FORMS_HOME>/bin/config.bat -silent -response <path-to-response-file>

I want to run report from FORM

I want to run report from FORM. The report will save in PDF format then OPEN automatically in PDF
Every PDF file should have a unique file name.
I am using Form 6i and Reports 6i

DECLARE
vParamList PARAMLIST;
BEGIN
vParamList:=GET_PARAMETER_LIST('MyRep');
IF NOT ID_NULL(vParamList) THEN
DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(vParamList);
END IF;
vParamList:=CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('MyRep');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY('report_path\emp_rep_def',REPORT_DESFORMAT,'PDF');
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS,'report_path\emp_rep_def',ASYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,vParamList,NULL);
END;

Running Reports within a Form 10g (versus 6i)

Ok, I've read quite a few threads on here and a whitepaper on running Reports in 10g and I'm still having trouble.
1.) In Client/Server 6i, we used to the HOST command. I know I can use the WebUtil utility to make the existing code trying to work but, I don't want to do that initially. I want to use the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT and WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to make this work. I'm using RHEL 5 to try and do this.
- Where my trouble lies is the URL that makes it work. I thought the URL I have to pass is "Http:server:port/reports/rwservlet/getjobid-jobid?server-reports_server_name. It's not launching at all so I was wondering if I did something wrong. I'm just used to the HOST command so, I'm not sure what I have to pass to make this work. I have a report that I can launch in Report Builder and bring up in Previewer but, I want to run via my Oracle Form now.
2.) We do overnight reporting where we spit out a queue of reports and in client/server, we have a command that generates all the reports on the server then, when the users come in the morning, all they have to do is open a screen and print. Is there a way to do this batch type processing for large number of reports? Mind you, during these report generation, we have reports that print out to several different paper sizes so we rendered that are part of the parameter when generating them.
Any help is appreciate in this matter. I realize these are not easy questions so I appreciate any feedback one can give in either matter. For this thread, I'm more interested in the answer to #1 for now.
Regards,
Chris

Don't know if these are typos in your url, the correct url is
Http://server:port/reports/rwservlet/getjobidJOBID?server=reports_server_nametry to "type" the url in an empty brower-window to check if its correct.
On "batch reporting", have a look at the database package srw, which comes with the 10DS-installation (the scripts are located in $ORACLE_HOME/reports/server/sql)

Run report from form in 9i

I cannot seem to get the 9ias Report Server to return the PDF file to my
browser when my Form runs a report form its menu. If I just send the server
the request
(http://mydomain:7777/reports/rwservlet?report=d:\path\report.rdf&userid=me/
pw@servertnsname&destype=cache&desformat=PDF) in the browser, it works fine;
but when I use the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT built_in from a Form (menu) to do (I
thought) the same thing, resulting PDF does not return to the browser.
Ideally, it should spawn a new browser window containing the displayed PDF.
The report properties in the calling form are FILENAME (d:\path\report.rdf),
BATCH, ASYNCHRONOUS, CACHE, REP_SERV_NAME, and USER_ID=me/pw@servertnsname
in Other Parameters. I know the report is executing properly because I have
examined the report server queue, and the completed job is listed.
How to I tell it to shoot the PDF back over the web to my browser?
This process was similar in the old client/server days when the destination
was PREVIEW, and RUNFORM took care of the data, but for the moment I am
baffled.

If calling your report works as you like in a browser, then use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to call out to that URL.

When run report from form(6i) on the web,error FRM-921000

While I was trying to run report from form (6i)on the web,it will give me this error

But when I try to call form using form,I do

May I know ehat is the cause?
Anybody encounter this before?

I am running Forms 6i on the web and attempting to call me report via RUN_REPORT_OBJECT. I am getting the same error as Jenny FRM-92100. I need to pass a parameter list so I don't think I can use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. Any ideas???
Thanks,

Dear Jenny,
I am running reports from Forms 6i on the WEB. I did not encounter your problem. Nevertheless I would like to share the following with you.
RUN_PRODUCT doesn't work for calling reports ON THE WEB. Instead using RUN_PRODUCT do the following:
1. Install Oracle Reports Server
2. For WEB calls of reports use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT
3. Learn how to pass parameters to the reports. It is a litlle bit strange, but it is explaint excellent in the documentation to the Reports Server.
I hope this will help you.

Problem running reports using webutil in Forms 10g

This is about 3 dll files related to webutil functionality in forms 10g
d2kwut60.dll
jacob.dll
JNIsharedstubs.dll
I am running report which is using webutil functionality. So when I try to run report, our application server try to download above dlls to my local machine on path C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin
Due to security policy, our company doesn't allow write access to folder C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin and hence report is failing to run.
We need solution for this issue so that we should be able to run report successfully?
Details as below:
Application server : Forms 10g - 10.1.2.3 ( Using Sun jre and not jinitiator). We do not want to use jinitiator
Browser - IE8

Curious, typically Java will store these "temporary" files in the cache not in the BIN directory. Unfortunately, the only way I know to change the location of the CACHE (temporary files) directory is through the Java Control Panel applet. Open the Control Panel and start the Java Control Panel. On the General tab click the Settings... button in the Temporary Internet Files section. In the Location section - click the Change button which will bring up a "Temporary Files Location" dialog box. Simply navigate to a directory that your security policy will allow files to be written too.
The ideal solution would be to push this type of change out to all of your users rather than have to manually change each workstation. I don't know if there is a way to push this change out, but you can check the Java website for more information.
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)
