How to create a virtual directory for the Report Server

Hi, I am new to server admin and need help with configuration.
I would like to map a physical directory on the server so that users can use a virtual path to save report outputs in that location. For example the form will call the report with desname = 'd:\xyz\abc.pdf' and the output file will be saved in a predefined directory on the server. I know how to do it on the forms server using the orion_web.xml but not sure about the report server configuration.
We are using rwservlet to run reports on 10G release2/Windows 2000.
Thanks in advance,

Virtual directories are mapped in the httpd.conf file in the Apache directory as aliases:
Alias /xyz/ "d:\xyz\"
You can now call the report output with
http://server/xyz/abc.pdf

  • How to create multi garnishment order for the same garnishment document

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me how to create multi garnishment order for the same garnishment document. I tried to copy the entry in IT0195 but the sequence field is grayed out so it will just delete the old record. What configuration should I do to make this possible?
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    hi,
    As far as I got it.
    You cannot have multiple Garnishment order but if a need arises you have to maintain it in IT216.
    For that follow this path goto PA30->pernr->194->change->Garnishment->adjustment.
    Since like order you cannot maintain adjustment also directly.

  • How to create  an alternative bom for the same product

    Hi expert,
       I want to know how to create an alternative bom for the same product. Can i use the different bom usage to create or use the same bom usage? In addition, how can i use the production version to link the alternative bom for the same product?
    Please help me solve the problem.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.
    George shi

    HI
    you can go with t-code CS01
    if you have the BOM already and you want to create the alternative BOM then just goto create BOM
    and enter the material and plant and uasge system will auto matically prapose the next numner ie, if you have Alt BOM1
    then next system will prappose 2.
    then you can enter the components as per you requirement
    if you go to different BOM usage then sytem will not go for alternative BOM it gives again alt bom 1.
    prodcution version you need to craet from mateial master
    each version you can go woith alternative BOMS
    Version 1 will have alt BOM1
    Version 2 can haev ALT BOM2

    Can anybody help me how do I design such report....
    Thanks

    Hi Developer life,
    According to your description that you want to dynamically increase and decrease the numbers of the columns in the table, right?
    As Jason A Long mentioned that we can use the matrix to do this and put the year field in the column group, amount fields(Numric  values) in the details,  add  an filter to filter the data base on this column group, but if
    the data in the DB not suitable to add to the matrix directly, you can use the unpivot function to turn the column name of year to a single row and then you can add it in the column group.
    If there are too many columns in the column group, it will fit the page size automatically and display the extra columns in the next page.

    If your still have any problem, please try to provide us more details information, such as the data structure in the DB and the table structure you are currently designing.
    Any question, please feel free to let me know.

  • Reporting Services will not automatically use a different replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs. How to overcome this issue

    Reporting Services offers limited support for using AlwaysOn Availability Groups with report server databases. The report server databases can be configured in AG to be part of a replica; however Reporting Services will not automatically use a different
    replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs. How to overcome this issue? is there any workaround for that..
    Rahul

    Hi.
    With the AlwaysOn listener you should have a single DNS name to connect to regardless of which cluster node is active. Are you using the listener service? If not, please refer to the link below.

  • How to define a virtual directory for 1virtual server?

    Hi there,
    The last part is always the hardest. I succesfully converted my Apache configuration to the SunONE setup but one section and I fail to grasp where I'm going wrong...
    SunONE Webserver 6.1SP5, I have quite a few virtual servers divided over several virtual classes. And now I'm trying to configure a 'virtual directory' (pfx2dir nametrans) limited to a single virtual server but no matter what I try I can't get it to work...
    In the administration guide I read about the NameTrans directive and how it should be used in the default object (in obj.conf ofcourse). So when I have something like this all works as it should, but for all virtual servers in the class:
    <Object name="default">
    NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/files" dir="/opt/websites/catslair/data"
    </Object>So when reading up even more I came across the NSAPI programmers guide which explained that you can have both <Object> and <Client> tags. Because of the 'urlhost' parameter with the Client tag I figured that it should be possible to limit the NameTrans line mentioned above to but one virtual server:
    <Client urlhost="catslair.intranet.lan">
    NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/files" dir="/opt/websites/catslair/data"
    </Client>But whenever I use this approach the server refuses to start and presents me with an error:
    [13/May/2006:16:38:10] config (19621): CORE3185: Invalid configuration: File /usr/local/sun/SUNWwbsvr/https-magi.intranet.lan/config/server.xml, line 178, column 99: HTTP3258: Error processing Mirrors.obj.conf line 51: HTTP2215: directive outside objectAt first I didn't understand exactly what it meant, I even stumbled upon a bug report which triggered the same error (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4979377) but after reading up on this I can only conclude that NameTrans can only be used within an <Object> block. The manuals also hint into this direction since it becomes obvious that the preffered approach is using this in the default object.
    So picture my surprise when I came across http://docs.sun.com/source/817-6252/npgobjcn.html#wp1041206 in the NSAPI programmers guide, its past the table. One of the examples shows this approach:
    <Client odds="25%">
    NameTrans fn="redirect" from="/Pogues" url-prefix="http://pogues.example.com"
    </Client>Because I was sure about urlhost being a parameter for the Client tag I tried copying the above example, but when I give it a try I'm once again greeted with the error I mentioned earlier "directive outside object".
    So can anyone please point me in the right direction? Is it possible to setup a virtual directory for a single virtual server and if so how do I proceed since <Client> doesn't seem to work. thanks in advance for any tips you can give me.

    Thanks a lot for the example, that fixed the problem.
    I've been reading the NSAPI programmers guide several times now and I was under the impression that you should either use <object> or <client>, never thought about this approach. Now when I re-read it is makes sense, but wasn't very clear at first.
    I think I'll e-mail Sun to suggest an addition of the <Object> tag in their <Client> tag example (http://docs.sun.com/source/817-6252/npgobjcn.html#wp1045056) to make things a little more clear.
    Thanks again, now I can finally implement the final configuration settings and plan for the actual switch later this evening.

    Go to transaction SE93, enter a transaction code that you want and click on "create". Enter a text and select the "Transaction with Parameters" button. In the Default Values section, enter START_REPORT in the transaction field. Check the "skip initial screen" box. In the Name of Screen field section enter the following lines:

  • How to create a z-tcode for a report in FSI3 transaction

    hi friends,
              i want to create a z tcode for a report in FSI3 transaction, i have copied the program of the report and created a tcode in se93, but some more tabs are getting displayed in selection screen when im executing my Z Tcode, and report is not getting executed. kindly help.
    regards,
    nagarajan.j

    Hi,
    follow these steps:
    1. enter into transaction SE43 and change any Z area menu (we won't save it anyway)
    2. choose to add a new entry
    3. in the popup, choose to add a new report
    4. select "Drilldown"
    5. the application class depends on the area from you are trying to define/launch drilldown reports. In case of transaction FSI3, the appropriate application class is "FBR FI:FIS - Balance sheet, balance sheet key figures
    6. then choose the suitable report type. This corresponds to the nodes that you'll see in transaction FSI3
    7. finally choose a report, and optionally a variant.
    8. you'll return to the screen "Transaction code for reports" (same as in step 4)
    9. expand the button to display further options
    10. optionally, specify a custom transaction code and/or description
    11. accept all popups. This will create the transaction
    12. finally, exit and don't save the area menu
    I hope this helps. Kind regards,
    Alvaro
