Hello All
This is San,
My problem is that i need to save pdf/html report in client machine while report running on client machine for this i have set destype as file and desformat as pdf/html.
It is running and save automatically while report run on server machine (Application Server OS is Windows 20003 professional) but when i run it on client machine (Client machine OS is XP sp2) click on run button to run report then it give message as

Hello Mr.
Thanks for quick reply.
The e:\tempReport directory is on both app-server and client and it is shared folder, i am sending procedure that i have used as:
PROCEDURE DOWNLOAD_AS IS
l_success boolean;
l_bare_filename varchar2(50);
BEGIN
--l_bare_filename := substr(:upload.file_name,instr(:download.file_name,'\',-1)+1);
l_success := webutil_file_transfer.AS_to_Client_with_progress
(clientFile => :GLOBAL.PATH3||:global.tmp--(\\client_ip_address\e:\tmpreports\file_name.html it is shared folder)
,serverFile => :GLOBAL.PATH2||:global.tmp--\\server_iip_address\e:\tmpreports\file_name.html it is shared folder)
,progressTitle => 'Download from Application Server in progress'
,progressSubTitle => 'Please wait'
if l_success
then
message('File downloaded successfully from the Application Server');
else
message('File download from Application Server failed');
end if;
exception
     when others
     then
     message('File download failed: '||sqlerrm);
END;
Please suggest me what to do.

How to download a file from server machine to client machine using jsp

Hi,
In my application, I have an excel file stored on my server machine. How can I download that excel file on to my client machine using jsp. Is there any other way I can open that file from my machine and save it in my machine using jsp/java?
Its an emergency for me to do this.
Can anyone provide me the full code to download a file from server machine as I don't have
time to browse through various sites.
thanks in advance,
Tiijnar

Please post your code using code tags (click on CODE above the text area, when posting)
response.setContentType("application/octet-stream");Why octet-stream? Set the correct mime-type.
String disHeader = "Attachment; Filename=\"filename\"";The filename should just be the file's name. Not the complete path to the file! This will tell anyone where the file is located on the server. It's also inconvenient because by default,the browser will suggest it as the name for the download.
Your way of writing to the output stream is just plain wrong. See this snippet (picked from [http://balusc.blogspot.com/2007/07/fileservlet.html])
        BufferedInputStream input = null;
        BufferedOutputStream output = null;
        try {
            // Open streams.
            input = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(file), DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE);
            output = new BufferedOutputStream(response.getOutputStream(), DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE);
            // Write file contents to response.
            byte[] buffer = new byte[DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE];
            int length;
            while ((length = input.read(buffer)) > 0) {
                output.write(buffer, 0, length);
            // Finalize task.
            output.flush();
        } finally {
            // Gently close streams.
            close(output);
            close(input);

How to Download the report from the workitem?

Hi,
I have one typical requirement that is to download the report from the Workitem by the manager?
Would any body please give the solution and procedure?
If you have any sample code for that give it tome?
Early reply is appriciable.
Regards,
Chow.

If it is an ALV report you don't have to do any coding. You don't say which report it is.
If it is a report that uses write statements you can also export to a spreadsheet, but of course the cell matching is not quite as for ALV reports since the report creator decides the alignment. Use the menu item "System" => "List" => "Save" (the menu item names may be a little different since I have translated them from Norwegian).

Applet question, how to download resource files from server

hi,
i am new at applet world.
i have an applet that reads some resource, data and configuration files. so i need to download these files from server to client. i did some resarch and could not find how to download files from server in an applet application.
how can i do this task?
thank you for your answers.

You may want to distinguish between 'resources' and data/configuration files.
'Resources' are non-class files that are part of your application, i.e without them the application would simply not work, just like class files.
Those are typically images, sounds or resource bundles (GUI elements translated to different languages) that nobody except you, the developer, would touch (when releasing an upgrade or a patch).
Those should just go into the applet jar or additional jars named in the applet tag.
Data/configuration files, that may be changed by others than the developers, should be made available through HTTP, just like the applet jar itself. The applet will have (read) access to them using java.net.URLConnection.

How to download a file from server?

Hi everyone,
I need to download a file from my server to client machine. I got a sample code from ur forum and I modified it slightly.
//Snippet of code:
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)throws
     ServletException, IOException{
int bytesRead=0;
     int count=0;
     byte[] b1=new byte[1];
     //OutputStream out=res.getOutputStream();
     res.setContentType("application/html");
     //Create an input stream from file URL.
     String fileURL="http://localhost:8080/webapps/upload/upload.html";
     BufferedInputStream bis=null;
     BufferedOutputStream bos=null;
     boolean download=false;
     res.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=upload.html " );
     try{
     URL url=new URL(fileURL);
     URLConnection connection=url.openConnection();
     InputStream in=connection.getInputStream();
     bis=new BufferedInputStream(in);
     FileOutputStream fileout=new FileOutputStream("upload.html");
     bos=new BufferedOutputStream(fileout);
     while(-1 != (bytesRead = bis.read())){
     try{
     bos.write(bytesRead);
     bos.flush();
     }//end of try forwhile loop
     catch(SocketException e){
     setError(e);
     break;
The code is getting compiled, when I run the appln using the URL,
http://localhost:8080/upload/servlet/DownloadFile
it opens a pop up dialog box, asking whether to "open", "save" or "cancel" buttons. When I try to open a file, I'm getting a blank page.
I'm not getting the contents of the file.
So pls can anyone tel me wht's wrong in the code or do i need to add few more lines in my code?
Also pls let me know, how can I download any files of type .doc, html, .txt, .zip, or any type, without mentioning the file type?
Thanks in advance

Do not use a FileOutputStream (that will save it locally to the server). Call HttpServletResponse.getOutputStream(), which will send it back to the browser. Also remember to call close() on the stream at the end.

How to download a file from server to client m/c

hi
my requirement is,
a form is displayed to user with a download button and
onclick of download ,user will see a box with options open,save,cancel.
if user clicks on open /save ,how to get the info about download is complete on client side because i need to set a flag in database ,
as Downloaded once the download is complete on client side
my problem is ,in the action of form the path given is of servlet class
having code of
setheader and setcontenttype as attachment but on click of download button it is opening the servlet instead of the required file,
means it is opening the page specified in action of form ,
what can be done abt it??/

How do I save files from my HD onto Time Machine?

If I delete files on my hard drive to free up space (i.e., movie files that I want to save in an external harddrive), time machine will not keep these files for me on my external harddrive, since time machine just backs up what is in Macintosh HD. Right? How do I make it so Time Machine does NOT delete these files from it's archive?

beccasanchezmartin
How do I make it so Time Machine does NOT delete these files from it's archive?
You need to seriously consider options OTHER than time machine for important data. TM premise is storing a copy of your machine, its design and purpose is not for archiving important data youve spent years working on, despite countless people who in fact, and in error, use it that way.
since time machine just backs up what is in Macintosh HD. Right?
Correct, time machine is an entry level backup methodology, you need to consider something other than time machine for that.   You NEVER want to work off the premise of needing to delete things.
Buy an external HD and store vital files on there, .....Time Machine is a sytem backup, NOT a data archive, nor a primary redundancy.
Methodology to protect your data. Backups vs. Archives. Long-term data protection
#1. Time Machine / Time Capsule
Drawbacks:
1. Time Machine is not bootable, if your internal drive fails, you cannot access files or boot from TM directly from the dead computer.
2. Time machine is controlled by complex software, and while you can delve into the TM backup database for specific file(s) extraction, this is not ideal or desirable.
3. Time machine can and does have the potential for many error codes in which data corruption can occur and your important backup files may not be saved correctly, at all, or even damaged. This extra link of failure in placing software between your data and its recovery is a point of risk and failure. A HD clone is not subject to these errors.
4. Time machine mirrors your internal HD, in which cases of data corruption, this corruption can immediately spread to the backup as the two are linked. TM is perpetually connected (or often) to your computer, and corruption spread to corruption, without isolation, which TM lacks (usually), migrating errors or corruption is either automatic or extremely easy to unwittingly do.
5. Time Machine does not keep endless copies of changed or deleted data, and you are often not notified when it deletes them; likewise you may accidently delete files off your computer and this accident is mirrored on TM.
6. Restoring from TM is quite time intensive.
7. TM is a backup and not a data archive, and therefore by definition a low-level security of vital/important data.
8. TM working premise is a “black box” backup of OS, APPS, settings, and vital data that nearly 100% of users never verify until an emergency hits or their computers internal SSD or HD that is corrupt or dead and this is an extremely bad working premise on vital data.
9. Given that data created and stored is growing exponentially, the fact that TM operates as a “store-it-all” backup nexus makes TM inherently incapable to easily backup massive amounts of data, nor is doing so a good idea.
10. TM working premise is a backup of a users system and active working data, and NOT massive amounts of static data, yet most users never take this into consideration, making TM a high-risk locus of data “bloat”.
11. In the case of Time Capsule, wifi data storage is a less than ideal premise given possible wireless data corruption.
12. TM like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
13. *Level-1 security of your vital data.
Advantages:
1. TM is very easy to use either in automatic mode or in 1-click backups.
2. TM is a perfect novice level simplex backup single-layer security save against internal HD failure or corruption.
3. TM can easily provide a seamless no-gap policy of active data that is often not easily capable in HD clones or HD archives (only if the user is lazy is making data saves).
#2. HD archives
Drawbacks:
1. Like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
2. Unless the user ritually copies working active data to HD external archives, then there is a time-gap of potential missing data; as such users must be proactive in archiving data that is being worked on or recently saved or created.
Advantages:
1. Fills the gap left in a week or 2-week-old HD clone, as an example.
2. Simplex no-software data storage that is isolated and autonomous from the computer (in most cases).
3. HD archives are the best idealized storage source for storing huge and multi-terabytes of data.
4. Best-idealized 1st platform redundancy for data protection.
5. *Perfect primary tier and level-2 security of your vital data.
#3. HD clones (see below for full advantages / drawbacks)
Drawbacks:
1. HD clones can be incrementally updated to hourly or daily, however this is time consuming and HD clones are, often, a week or more old, in which case data between today and the most fresh HD clone can and would be lost (however this gap is filled by use of HD archives listed above or by a TM backup).
2. Like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
Advantages:
1. HD clones are the best, quickest way to get back to 100% full operation in mere seconds.
2. Once a HD clone is created, the creation software (Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper) is no longer needed whatsoever, and unlike TM, which requires complex software for its operational transference of data, a HD clone is its own bootable entity.
3. HD clones are unconnected and isolated from recent corruption.
4. HD clones allow a “portable copy” of your computer that you can likewise connect to another same Mac and have all your APPS and data at hand, which is extremely useful.
5. Rather than, as many users do, thinking of a HD clone as a “complimentary backup” to the use of TM, a HD clone is superior to TM both in ease of returning to 100% quickly, and its autonomous nature; while each has its place, TM can and does fill the gap in, say, a 2 week old clone. As an analogy, the HD clone itself is the brick wall of protection, whereas TM can be thought of as the mortar, which will fill any cracks in data on a week, 2-week, or 1-month old HD clone.
6. Best-idealized 2nd platform redundancy for data protection, and 1st level for system restore of your computers internal HD. (Time machine being 2nd level for system restore of the computer’s internal HD).
7. *Level-2 security of your vital data.
HD cloning software options:
1. SuperDuper HD cloning software APP (free)
2. Carbon Copy Cloner APP (will copy the recovery partition as well)
3. Disk utility HD bootable clone.
#4. Online archives
Drawbacks:
1. Subject to server failure or due to non-payment of your hosting account, it can be suspended.
2. Subject, due to lack of security on your part, to being attacked and hacked/erased.
Advantages:
1. In case of house fire, etc. your data is safe.
2. In travels, and propagating files to friends and likewise, a mere link by email is all that is needed and no large media needs to be sent across the net.
3. Online archives are the perfect and best-idealized 3rd platform redundancy for data protection.
4. Supremely useful in data isolation from backups and local archives in being online and offsite for long-distance security in isolation.
5. *Level-1.5 security of your vital data.
#5. DVD professional archival media
Drawbacks:
1. DVD single-layer disks are limited to 4.7Gigabytes of data.
2. DVD media are, given rough handling, prone to scratches and light-degradation if not stored correctly.
Advantages:
1. Archival DVD professional blank media is rated for in excess of 100+ years.
2. DVD is not subject to mechanical breakdown.
3. DVD archival media is not subject to ferromagnetic degradation.
4. DVD archival media correctly sleeved and stored is currently a supreme storage method of archiving vital data.
5. DVD media is once written and therefore free of data corruption if the write is correct.
6. DVD media is the perfect ideal for “freezing” and isolating old copies of data for reference in case newer generations of data become corrupted and an older copy is needed to revert to.
7. Best-idealized 4th platform redundancy for data protection.
8. *Level-3 (highest) security of your vital data.
[*Level-4 data security under development as once-written metallic plates and synthetic sapphire and likewise ultra-long-term data storage]
#6. Cloud based storage
Drawbacks:
1. Cloud storage can only be quasi-possessed.
2. No genuine true security and privacy of data.
3. Should never be considered for vital data storage or especially long-term.
4. *Level-0 security of your vital data.
Advantages:
1. Quick, easy and cheap storage location for simplex files for transfer to keep on hand and yet off the computer.
2. Easy source for small-file data sharing.
Make a (some) Redundancy of data
Secondary data on a single external HD or RAID array is not a redundancy, but a PRIMARY data copy.          First Redundancy takes place on a Secondary storage medium/locus. (both of these external of course)
2nd level protection in any redundancy necessitates it "be unconnected".           Data ON the actual computer is not considered, ergo a single copy OFF a computer is just that, a backup / copy. Redunancy begins as secondary to a FIRST COPY

How to download ALL messages from server - not just NEW messages?

Good evening.
The only pulldown menu options I find are for NEW messages.
How can I retrieve ALL messages from the email server? (Yes they are all there).
Thanks for your time.

Did you try "WebMail to goto your mail server & Mark all Messages as Unread?", as I mentioned before?
On the Server is where it's kept as to which ones have already been downloaded. I think marking the Unread should do it.

How to save file from server to client machine

Hi,
By using POI library i'm writing values to the existing excel sheet which is available in server. After i written values to the excel, i want to save the same file to the client machine.
How to achieve this.
I googled about this, but still i didn't get any clear idea.
Thanks in advance,
SAN

Sameera,
No, i can't understand what is the meaning of the following code:
public void doDownload(FacesContext facesContext, OutputStream outputStream) {
// write the neccessary code to get the download data from the Model
String data = getDownloadData();
// save to the output stream
try {
OutputStreamWriter writer = new OutputStreamWriter(outputStream,"UTF-8");
writer.write(data);
writer.close();
outputStream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// handle I/O exceptions
can you please explain this code little more.

How do I launch report from menu using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT?

Hi all,
Re: How do I launch report from menu (and have it print to the screen) using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT?
I am using Oracle 9iAS on Windows 2000 and I have a similar problem with launching reports from the menu. The application should call the report via the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT builtin feature from Forms. The report is never displayed.
The report is in the same folder as the menu form calling it. Do the reports have to be in a specific format? How do I get the report_id?
The name of the report is seconds_calls. No user-specified parameters are passed. Also, the report object in the object navigator in Forms is Report4 (is this relevant?)
When I try to run report via the form using this code:
DECLARE
     report_id REPORT_OBJECT;
     rep_status VARCHAR2(200);
     v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
     report_job_id VARCHAR2(200);
--     job_number NUMBER;
--     server_name VARCHAR2(200) := 'repserver';
BEGIN
     report_id:= FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('seconds_calls');
     rep_status:=REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(report_job_id);
     v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(report_id);
END;
I get this error message:
FRM-41219 Cannot find report:Invalid ID
And this message
FRM-40738 Argument 1 to builtin RUN_REPORT_OBJECT cannot be null
When I tried to use the same code (above), substituting the object name for the form name,
I got these messages:
FRM-41219 Cannot find report:Invalid ID
FRM-40738 Argument 1 to builtin RUN_REPORT_OBJECT cannot be null
And FRM-10259 Invalid null argument to packaged procedure or function (???)
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Pippa

Philippy,
substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)
This code extracts the Reports job id from the Reports Server name. The run_report_object() built-in
retrieves e.g. RepServ_9 as a job id, but in Reports9i you only need the '9' as a value to retrieve the
output.
Use the following sample a template. It is a procedure that expects the reports object name, teh reports server name and the
output format as an argument. The call to Web.show_document expects the ReportsSrevices to be accessible from teh same server
(relative addressing is used)
PROCEDURE RUN_REPORT_OBJECT_PROC (vc_reportobj Varchar2, vc_reportserver varchar2, vc_runformat varchar2) IS
v_report_id           Report_Object;
vc_ReportServerJob      VARCHAR2(100); /* unique id for each Report request */
vc_rep_status      VARCHAR2(100); /* status of the Report job */
vjob_id               VARCHAR2(100); /* job_id as number only string*
BEGIN
/* Get a handle to the Report Object itself. */
v_report_id:= FIND_REPORT_OBJECT(vc_reportobj);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
/* Define the Report output format and the name of the Reports Server as well as a user-defined parameter, passing the department number from Forms to the Report. We don't need a parameter form to be displayed, and therefore paramform is set to "no". */
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_DESFORMAT, vc_runformat);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_SERVER, vc_reportserver);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_OTHER,      'p_deptno='||:dept.deptno||'paramform=no');
vc_ReportServerJob:=RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(report_id);
/* remove the Reports Server name from teh job id */
vjob_id := substr(vc_ReportServerJob,length(reportserver)+2,length(vc_ReportServerJob));
/* Check the report status if finished. */
vc_rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(vc_ReportServerJob);
IF vc_rep_status='FINISHED' THEN
/* Call the Report output to be displayed in a separate browser window.
The URL for relative addressing is only valid when the Reports Server
is on the same host as the Forms Server. For accessing a Remote Reports
Server on a different machine, you must use the prefix http://hostname:port/ */
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid '||vjob_id ||'?server='vc_reportserver,'_blank');
