How configure Report Server

Hello everybody,
I have just installed Developer 10.
Yesterday, I made a report JSP from JDeveloper with the Report Builder, but when I execute the page with the local OC4J Server, the page crashes:
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: REP-51002: Fail to link to Reports Server central.cie
'central.cie' is the server where i have installed the database and the Oracle9iAS. In fact, I access to the Oracle Enterprise Manager with central:7777
The DB Connection is all right, but I don't know which is
the Report Server.
I don't know how configure the Report Server, if I must deploy in the Oracle Enterprise Manager or if it has one by default.
Please help me as soon as possible because I'm in a hurry. Next week I have a presentation of my project and It's only left the reports.
Thank you very much.

1) >>>> but when I execute the page with the local OC4J Server <<
Did you test the report from within builder ? In builder there is a "run to web layout" (a traffic light icon in toolbar). Clicking on it will run the JSP report to web
2) Docs -
see below
In your case see "Publishing reports to web" document.
3) Setup "trace" options for JSP and see in the log files what error you get. Please post them here
In the above document see section 3.3.5
4) Please see in the document the steps to run to JSP
Section 13.1.2
Just to see if you have missed anything
http://web_server.domain_name:port/alias/myreport.jsp?parameters
5) In your BI Reports and FORMS Midtier (Not Infrastructure install) by default there should be a report server running by the name
rep_hostname
For trouble shooting purposes , run a standalone server in the midtier
rwserver server=<any name>
and give
http://web_server.domain_name:port/alias/myreport.jsp?server=server_name&other params
Thanks

How to configure report server in 9iDS

I am usin P4 and trying to configure report server for 9iDS. But, surprisingly there is no conf file in the \orant\reports\server path after complete installation of 9iDS.
How should I configure the report server?
Take care,
Tarek

tarek,
we released a new whitepaper last week about configuring the reports services with iDS for testing your reports. you can find this whitepaper in the reports section here on OTN.
however. you can either create the reports config file manually or it is created automatically for you if you start up a server and there is no corresponding config file already defined.

How configure reporting services configuration with sql server business development studio

I have installed sql server 2008 r2 mixed mode(sql server authentication) with native mode
I want to run report using reporting services config manager.
I made report in ssrs and I have configured reporting services configuration and web url from RSCM( reporting services config manager), i put on ssrs report.
report is build and deployed but when i take deployed url on Internet explorer, it shows the window below:
when I put the password nothing happened . if I put url in google chrome then it shows authentication required window like the same in IE
if I passed username=(levent/sa) and password then goes on window but does not see on page, if I passed only administrator name (levent) not passed sql server login name (sa) then does not close 'Authentication window'
'Computer connect net with modem'
before i tried on earlier PC, it worked fine.
setting is below link like this.
only set service Account is Use_built=NetworkSrvice
link
http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/2012/02/how-to-configure-sql-server-reporting-services-in-order-to-deploy-reporting-services-reports-in-gp/
what is the problem
Plz give suggestion quickly

Hi tusharshinde,
Per my understanding that when you log in the report Manager you got the pop-up window ask for credential, you try to enter the SA account and the window account as the username and password but both not work, right?
Your issue related to the authentication. As you mentioned you have choose the ”Network Service” as the Service account, generally using this account in RSCM and RSWindowsNegotiate is added to the RSReportServer.config file as the default setting. With this
setting, the report server can accept requests from client applications requesting Kerberos or NTLM authentication. If Kerberos is requested and the authentication fails, the report server switches to NTLM authentication and prompts the user for credentials
unless the network is configured to manage authentication transparently.
The issue can be caused by many factors and please check one by one.
Did you enter the username and password for three times and got blank page or got some error? If you got some error, please provide the error information.
you can delete the specific Authorization Types inside rsreportserver.config file, open path:” \Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\rsreportserver.config”.
Search the file for the “AuthenticationTypes” section. Remove RSWindowsNegotiate and RSWindoeBasic to ensure only “RSWindowsNTLM” is specified in the file rsreportserver.config file.
Before do any modification, back up the files and remember to restart the ReportServer instance in the RSCM after the modification.
If step1 doesn’t work ,please also do the trusted Site Setting in the Browser, article with details steps for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb630430.aspx
Please check the Report Manager's authentication mode.Have a look in the Report Manager's web.config file to check if you can find below information under the <system.web> (Path is “C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting
Services\ReportManager\Web.config ” ).
authentication mode="Windows"
identity impersonate="True"

Please tried to provide us more details information, if the problem still exists:
Did you login in the report manager locally or remotely via Browser and which URL you are using to login the Report manager?
Did you modified some configuration file before and what did you modified?
Did your windows account have the right permission to access the report manager?
Any problem, please feel free to ask.

Configuration Manager 2012 R2 - SRS Reporting Services not configuring Report Server

Hi all,
I am running stand-alone primary site and remote (shared) SQL 2012 SP1 on Windows 2012 R2 Standard. Remote SQL server is currently hosting multiple instances and Configuratoin Manager is running on a custom instance. SCOM databases also co-exist on the same
SQL environment (different instance with SSRS installed & running perfectly).
After setting up the Reporting Services role on Configuration Manager environment, srsrpsetup.log & srsrpMSI.log states installation is successful. However, when monitoring srsrp.log file, we encounter the below message -
SMS_EXECUTIVE started SMS_SRS_REPORTING_POINT as thread ID 5232 (0x1470).
SMS_SRS_REPORTING_POINT 02/12/2014

Steps taken so far -
1. Switched reporting services to run from local system account to domain account.
2. Created new Report Server database on our instance and reconfigured Reporting Services to this DB.
3. Un-installed and re-installed Reporting Services role in Configuration Manager
4. Un-installed and re-installed SSRS on Configuration Manager (dedicated) SQL instance after removing Reporting Services role in CM12.
I have referred couple of links on forum and none seem to help resolve this issue.
Let me know if there is anything specific I missed out from my end. Appreciate any assistance.
Regards,
mittu

It seems that Reporting Services for SCOM and SCCM cannot co-exist on the same server (it sounds like a bad idea anyway)

Create and configure reports server in Oracle 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2 on solaris 10

Hi All,
I have installed Oracle 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2 on Solaris 10. I want to create and configure a new reports server.
Please help as I can't see anything on metalink.
Thanks/Regards
Dirish

In fact when installing 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2, the default report server name looks like this REP60_TEST.INTNET.MU.
My original tnsnames.ora was like this
REP60_TEST.INTNET.MU =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = test.intnet.mu)(PORT = 1950))
I added an alias to the tnsnames.ora file
now my tnsnames.ora is like this
REP60TEST,REP60_TEST.INTNET.MU =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = test.intnet.mu)(PORT = 1950))
This is working fine
Thanks

Problem in configuring Reports Server. Error-186

Dear All,
I have Developer6.0 on Windows NT with service pack 3 applied.
Problem is that the Report Server is not getting configured as an NT service .
after typing
rwsmts60 -install repserver
a Service is created in the Win NT Services
when I try to start
( I have a default printer )
the following error comes :
"The Oracle Reports Server (repserver )
service returned service specific error
186"
Secondly I tried not to use NT service
by
rwsmts60 -listen repserver
It gives the error
"REP-0186: Daemon failed to listen to port"
My Tnsnames.ora entry is
repserver.world = ( ADDRESS = ( PROTOCOL = TCP ) ( Host = 10.5.0.77 )
( Port = 1949 ) )
I tried different port no.s but still the error persists.
The report server and the OAS is on the same Machine and database is on a separate machine

Configuring Report Server after DNS change

Hello everyone,
I am encountering the following problem:
We have a Sharepoint 2013 server with Reporting Service integrated mode. Everything went fine. Now I have changed the DNS in the alternate access mapping. After that, when users want to create a new report (over the new URL) by opening Report Builder in Sharepoint
it won´t open. The error message is talking about an authentification problem 401 and System.Deployment.Application.DeploymentDownloadException (unknown subtyp).
Can anyone help me solving this issue?
Kind regards,

Content Type: TEXT/X-HTML
Creation Date: 22-JUL-2002
Last Revision Date: 08-MAR-2005
PURPOSE
========
The main purpose of this document is to list the known causes of the "Unable to
communicate with the Reports Server" error. The terms Reports Server, CGI,
Reports Servlet are also described briefly for a better explanation of this error scenario.
This document includes the following sections :
I. Brief summary on the architecture of Reports Server, CGI and Reports
Servlet
II. Sources of errors encountered when running a report with Reports Server
III. How the CGI (or the Reports Servlet) communicates with the Reports
Server
IV. Possible reasons which lead to "Unable to communicate with the Reports
Server" error.
1) Reports Server is up and running
2) tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora problems
3) Effect of parameter "ORACLE_HOME"
4) Effect of parameter "maxconnect"
5) Passing very large parameters to reports server
6) A case specific to OAS 4.0.8.2
7) A case specific to WEBDB version 2.1.0.9.3
V. References
I. Brief summary on the architecture of Reports Server, CGI and Reports Servlet
=================================================================================
In order to understand the causes of the error "Unable to communicate with the
Reports Server", let's first briefly review the Reports Runtime Engines, Reports
Server, the Reports CGI, and Reports Servlet architecture.
There are 4 important layers in Reports Server architecture which should be
understood in order to clearly understand the error "Unable to communicate with
the Reports Server" :
1) The Runtime Engines : This is the main layer where the reports are actually
executed. On unix systems there are "rwrun60" and on NT systems there are
"rwrun60.exe" processes.
2) The Reports Server : The Reports Server recieves the job request and queues
it. When one of its runtime engines becomes available, it sends the
command line to that runtime engine for execution. On Unix systems it is
the "rwmts60" executable and on NT systems it is "rwmts60.exe".
3) The Reports CGI : The Reports Web CGI passes the request to the Reports Server.
The Reports CGI or Servlet converts the request to a command line that can be executed by the Reports Server and
submits it to the specified Reports Server. On Unix platforms this executable
is "rwcgi60" and on NTs it is "rwcgi60.exe.
4) The Reports Servlet : Its functionality and function is just the same as "Reports CGI", but it is
a program written in Java as difference to the CGI program (which is
written in C programming language).
The Reports Server may be running on the same server with the CGI program (or
servlet) OR may reside totally on another machine which does not necessarily have
the same Operating System. For instance CGI may reside in a Windows NT machine
while the Reports server may reside on a Unix box, or any other combination with
Unix-Linux-NT-2000, etc.
The reports are called with a URL similar to below with the CGI :
http://fully.qualified.server.name:PORT/dev60cgi/rwcgi60.exe?server=<REPSERVER>&other_parameters=...........
where fully.qualified.server.name is the name of the server where the Reports CGI
reside, and <REPSERVER> is the name of the server.
II. Sources of errors encountered when running a report with Reports Server
============================================================================
The Reports Web CGI (or the Reports Servlet) makes a call to the Reports Server
and asks it to place the output into some destination (defined by DESTYPE and
DESNAME parameters), then gives back the necessary response to the calling
program. For example if the DESTYPE is "cache", then the Reports server generates
the report to a file in a temporary place and gives it back to CGI and the CGI gives
it back to the calling program. Otherwise, if the DESTYPE is "file", the Reports Server
generates the report output to the requested file and the CGI replies back the
following message : "Report output was successfully written to requested
destination.".
If there is any error in this process, the related error message is returned. The
possible sources of errors can be categorized as follows :
1) The errors that are returned from Reports Server; like the Reports Server can
not find the requested RDF file or the report may be run to file and the
directory where the reports output is asked to be placed does not occur or
similar errors. (Usually the REP-XXXX errors)
2) Another possible cause of error is the errors returned by the RDBMS to the
Reports Server, for example a table not found error or things like that. Of
course from the CGI point of view these errors are again transmitted from the
Reports Server but in fact the error originates from the RDBMS. (Usually the
ORA-XXXX errors)
3) Another possible cause of errors is the CGI itself, for example when the CGI
executable can not connect to the requested Reports Server, then we get the
famous "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server". In this document we will
diagnose the common reasons of this last error.
III. How the CGI (or the Reports Servlet) communicates with the Reports Server
===============================================================================
Having said that "Oracle Reports Server CGI - Unable to communicate with the
Reports Server." error is returned back from the CGI itself, let's discuss the
issue of how the Reports CGI connect to the Reports Server. The name of the
Reports Server given in the URL with "server=....." parameter is, in fact, just
a special tnsnames alias, similar to aliases for database connect strings. As it is
important for the CGI to resolve the alias, the CGI needs to know the HOST name (or the
IP) of the machine where the Reports Server is running and the port on which the
Reports Server is listening. So a typical Reports Server alias is defined as follows :
REP60_<MACHINE>=(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = <MACHINE>)(PORT = <PORT>))
This is defined in tnsnames.ora file, and the sqlnet.ora file is also used in
the name resolving operation.
IV. Possible reasons which lead to "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server" error.
==========================================================================================
The possible reasons for the "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server" error :
1) Reports Server is up and running :
Make sure that the Reports Server is really running on the specified server
and listening on the specified port. For details have a look at above
explanations for tnsnames alias of the reports server. And because of this the
CGI could not establish a connection to the Reports Server.
2) tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora problems :
As described above, the CGI resolves the details for the reports server using
the "tnsnames.ora" and "sqlnet.ora" files. There may be a problem with them,
here are the possible configuration problems :
a) There is no alias in the tnsnames.ora file for this Reports Server
b) The CGI looks into the wrong directory for the "tnsnames.ora" and "sqlnet.ora"
files. By default the CGI checks the $ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin directory for
these scripts, where the $ORACLE_HOME is the home of the Forms & Reports
installation. Please note that in a typical 9iAS 1.0.X installation there
are two ORACLE_HOME's, one is for the iAS and the other is for the tools,
usually the home for the tools is a directory with name "806" on NT and
"6iserver" on unix systems. By defining TNS_ADMIN in the environment, one
can override the search path for these two files.
The TNS_ADMIN variable can be defined in one of the following places :
i) In the environment : On MS Windows platforms check the "Settings
--> Control Panel --> System". On NTs check the environment TAB and in
Win2K systems check the "Environment Variables" button on Advanced tab.
ii) In "6iserver.conf" file. Details are as follows : The main configuration
file for Apache server is "httpd.conf" file which resides in
$IAS_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf directory. In this file there is a line to
include "oracle_apache.conf" and in this "oracle_apache.conf" file
there is a line to include "$ORACLE_HOME/conf/6iserver.conf" file. And
in this file the TNS_ADMIN variable could be defined as follows :
SetEnvIf Request_URI "rwcgi60" TNS_ADMIN=c:\orant\network\ADMIN
Please note that by defining it this way, the TNS_ADMIN will only be defined
for "rwcgi60" calls, so the other parts of the 9iAS will not be affected by
this setting.
c) In sqlnet.ora the "names.default_domain" is set but in tnsnames.ora the
domain is not defined in the alias description. For example if the
"names.default_domain=world" is present and active in "sqlnet.ora" file
then in the "tnsnames.ora" the alias of the reports server should also have
the ".world" extension appended at the end. And another cause is of course
the vice versa for this. If there is no "names.default_domain" is defined
in the "sqlnet.ora" then the alias in "tnsnames.ora" should not have the
domain extension.
Another important point that should be checked is, if TNS_ADMIN is defined
as described above then the search path is as follows, first the directory
defined by TNS_ADMIN is searched, if the "tnsnames.ora" file is not found in
this directory then $ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin is checked. (And on unix systems
/var/opt/oracle is also checked). These directories are only checked if the file
is not present, so if the "tnsnames.ora" file is present in TNS_ADMIN directory
but the alias is not present, then the other directories are not checked at all.
Let us assume that the tnsnames.ora file is present in the TNS_ADMIN directory but
there is no "sqlnet.ora" files here, then the sqlnet.ora file is checked in
$ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin directory, which could cause the same problem if the
"names.default_domain" is defined in this file.
All the above will result in, CGI to unable to resolve the alias in tnsnames.ora
file so it will not be able to establish a connection to the Reports Server.
3) Wrong "ORACLE_HOME" setting :
Wrong ORACLE_HOME setting. This is usually the case for Reports Servlet,
because the environment settings are defined in "jserv.properties" file for the
servlets and the setting here will effect both the Reports Servlet and the
setting for Oracle JSP and other servlets. So the other servlets or Oracle JSP
may need to set ORACLE_HOME to home of HTTP server while the reports server needs
it to be set to the TOOLS_HOME directory. In this case the best alternative is
not to set ORACLE_HOME in this directory and leave it to registry or defined the
ORACLE_HOME in "6iserver.conf" file just like the TNS_ADMIN defined above. For
details please have a look at the following document :
Note 179609.1 "Getting an error Unable to communicate with the Reports Server
using RWSERVLET"
4) Effect of parameter "maxconnect" :
Another common case for this error is that the CGI request reaches the Reports Server but
the Reports Server refuses connection. The main cause for this case is, that the Reports Server
configuration parameter "maxconnect" is defined too low, there are long running reports on the
server or the server is too busy at that time. Usually a second try some
later time results in a successful connection. If this is the case, the end user
may think that the problem is occasional. For details on this case please
have a look at the following document :
Note 125265.1 "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server"
5) Passing very large parameters to reports server :
Another known reason for this error is, if you are passing large parameters
to the Reports Server which exceeds sqlnet transmission blocks then the request may
end up with this error. To test it try with small parameter values. If you hit
this case, the solution is to increase the SDU (Session data unit size) and the TDU
(Transport unit data size) parameters in tnsnames.ora file, for details please
have a look at the following document :
Note 197358.1 "Passing large parameters to Reports show up a Reports Server
error"
6) A case specific to OAS 4.0.8.2 :
If you are using OAS instead of iAS, and the error appeared after
upgrading to 4.0.8.2 then this is caused because the 4.0.8.2 is using RSF
(Required Support Files) version 8.1.6 and the Reports 6i is using 8.0.6 and the
two could not reside in the same ORACLE_HOME directory. So the solution for this
problem is to create a new batch file and use it from which the actual CGI
executable is called. For details please see the following document :
Note 116754.1 "After applying OAS 4.0.8.2 CGI and Cartridge cannot communicate
to report server"
7) A case specific to WEBDB version 2.1.0.9.3 :
Another known case for this error is with WEBDB version 2.1.0.9.3 or less.
If you are using these old versions of WEBDB as HTTP listener, please have a
look at the following document :
Note 95426.1 "URL Not Found When Calling Oracle Developer Report from WebDB Site"

On Windows you can create a Report Services:
rwserver -install server=repserverYou have to choose different names for all servers, like your collegue cannot create a server with the same name. You can start/stop this Report server in Services (control panel). Configuration files can be found under $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf

Report Server Configuration Issue

Hi all ,
We are trying to install Report Server 11gR2 ( 11.1.2.1.0) , Weblogic Server is 10.3.6.0 on Sun Solaris on Sparc (64-bit) version 11. Java used is JDK1.7_21 .
We first installed Weblogic and did a software only install of Forms and Reports 11g. Now we are trying to configure Report Server by running config.sh from $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory.
Everything is working fine untill wizard try to restart WLS_REPORT server . When it tries to restart WLS_REPORT managed server it gives unable to restart managed server error. Log files of Managed server are giving below error :-->

Hi Subathra,
From the
document, we can know that “Starting with the SQL Server 2012 release, the Reporting Services Configuration Manager is not designed to manage SharePoint mode report servers. SharePoint mode is managed and configured by using SharePoint Central Administration
and PowerShell scripts.” It means that the Reporting Services Configuration Manager (2012) is no longer required or supported to configure and administer Reporting Services SharePoint mode. We should use SharePoint Central Administration and PowerShell scripts
to configure this.
For more details about how to install Reporting Services 2012 SharePoint Mode for SharePoint 2013, we can refer to the following articles:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219068.aspx
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/biblog/archive/2012/12/04/installing-and-configuring-sql-reporting-services-on-sharepoint-2013.aspx
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
