Image not showing in XML Publisher [works on windows, not unix]

I have an xml publisher RTF template that references an image from a URL passed in from the xml data file. The report definition references the image as follows:
<fo:external-graphic>
<xsl:attribute name="src">
<xsl:value-of select="//fld_FILE_PATH_NAME"/>
</xsl:attribute>
The XML produced for the report correctly contains one single element to resolve to the URL:
<fld_FILE_PATH_NAME>file:////i01_02/psoft/90/finsys/appserv/FSDSYS90/files/OZ57_EX_E0445_0000000303.png</fld_FILE_PATH_NAME>
When running in PeopleSoft on a windows application server the process works fine and I can see the image. When I run this in our unix solaris environment, PT 8.49, the report runs but the image does not display. I have checked that the image does exist in the correct location I ran firefox in gnome and pasted the file location below and it resolved fine.
I am referring to the file using a 'file' URL as follows:
file:////i01_02/psoft/90/finsys/appserv/FSDSYS90/files/OZ57_EX_E0445_0000000303.png
Any ideas?

OK, this was a confusing one, and I suspect is a bug.
In the end, after using the xdo.log [debugger], we saw that the xml publisher engine is stripping off two slashes as the beginning of the URL construct. So, the solution, is to add two additional slashes.
So, the URL which ended up working is:
file://////opt/oracle/90/findev/appserv/FSDDEV90/files/OZ57_EX_E0445_0000000303.png
which resolves to the file /opt/oracle/90/findev/appserv/FSDDEV90/files/OZ57_EX_E0445_0000000303.png
FYI - our environment is Solaris 10 using the Oracle Application Server, PT 8.49

  • Showing the XML publisher report in an iframe..

    Hi all..
    Please help me with this question.
    Before: We had a "http page" and we are showing a XML Publisher report which is also in "http" ,in an iframe of the parent page. Previously it was working fine, as both are http.
    *** Basically we are generating a URL of the report and showing it in a iframe of the web application****
    Now: Recently we configured ssl to the parent page (https), and the report sever is still in "http". Because of this difference, whenever we are calling that report,it is showing a security alert and redirecting to totally wrong page.
    Is there any configurations that i can do in the ""report server" to rectify this issue.Please help me with this issue.
    Thank u

    Hi Ravi ,
    can i do it only with the xml Publisher , because when i tried it in the past and get all the staff like Template / DD / CP up and running and started the CR i get an error from the system that he is missing a report directly in the file system... so he searched for the report himself on system like a standard 6i Report. But the template and the dd is stored in the db. So my question again, can I use the XML Puplisher without a Standard Report or can i use a dummy file only for checking and after that he use my template / dd.
    regards
    Kay

    IPOD model A1059 appears frozen and is unresponsive to all click wheel entries. Reset does not work.  Does not show up in ITunes or in Windows Explorer.  What is the problem and is there a fix?

    If you are unable to reset the iPod (assuming the hold switch is not in the On position either), then you'll have to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then connect it to a charger and leave it to charge for a couple of hours.

    You have no choice but to lose your data back to the last backup you made.
    Here's how to do the recovery.  Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once to succeed:

    I'm sure next time, you'll be more vigilant about keeping current backups.

    I have airport express but it is not recognised by either my macbook pro or my ipod on my wireless network. It does not show in airport utility. Might I not have an airport card?
    If both your MacBook Pro and iPod are unable to "see" the Wi-Fi network provided by the AirPort Express, it is most likely NOT that you are missing an "airport card," but the Express may be the issue instead.
    One quick test is to see if either device can "see" other Wi-Fi networks. If they can, then you can definately rule both of them out as the issue.
    By default, the AirPort Express will broadcast an unsecured Wi-Fi network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN. Can either device see this network? If not, then I would recommend that you perform a "factory default" reset on the Express, and then, check again.

    Hello, Thought I had just downloaded Mountain Lion butcannot find any evidence that it was installed. It is not showing as an icon anywhere and is not listed in downloads and is not listed under purchased apps. Have I just sat here for two hours watching a download that didn't happen? I do have a folder of incompatible software that's all.
    How do I know it has been installed?

    Hello and thanks. I downloaded the upgrade again after your reply to be sure and I believe all is operating smoothly now. Your reply gave me some confidence. I suspect I should not have clicked on a 'x' symbol soon after the download which may have accidentally deleted something before the download/installation process had been completed. Oops probably all my fault.  Birdie39

  • HTML Snippet customized paypal buttons not showing correctly when published

    Hi, My customized paypal buttons that i but on my iweb site using html snippets are not displaying correctly. They work in Opera but not in firefox or safari. Please take a look and tell me what you think might be wrong. (all the links are working it's just not showing the graphics correctly (apart from in Opera)
    http://www.alisonbrent.com/ShopTableLamps.html
    Also I've just noticed that when i return to my iweb application (after closing in down) the Html snippets aren't there anymore just an outline, just like they appear in safari?
    Many thanks,
    Ali
    P.S

    Bonjour
    You inserted an image inside the ShopTable_Lampsfiles folder but it's is deleted every time you publish your page
    1) Create an new folder named Paypal in your root folder:
    FTP: With a FTP software (like Cyberduck) create a new folder in your server root folder
    MobileMe: just make an new folder inside the Folder Sites (iDisk > Web > Sites)
    Name this Folder "paypal"
    2) insert your image "addtocartbutton.png" inside this paypal folder
    Get the new URL of your image , something like
    http://www.alisonbrent.com/paypal/addtocartbutton.png
    3) Paste this URL in your codes, replace
    src="http://www.alisonbrent.com/ShopTable_Lampsfiles/addtocartbutton.png"
    by
    src="http://the/new/URL/of/addtocartbutton.png"

  • XML Publisher CHARTS: mulit-dimensions not plotted correctly

    Hi,
    We're currently assessing the suitability of XMP Publisher and one of the deciding factors is to create a bar chart from an SQL query that retrieves multiple portfolios over a time-frame. For example, three portfolios are selected over a time period like 3 years (but there does not have to be a performance for every month) and their performance is plotted against each month (i.e. 0 - 3 Columns depending if a result exists per month). In the desktop publisher we struggled but managed to change the Graphics code until it could dynamically show the correct legend and the data rows, but alas the data points do not correspond correctly with the X-axis. It seems that when the rows are grouped each value is plotted against each column regardless of the tagged value used for the X-axis.
    Let me try and put it this way, the first month had only 1 portfolio and the next month had all three, but on the graph the first month shows three columns, the records have slipped.
    The code that we used was adapted from a forum entry by Klaus Fabian- "Re: Stacked Bar Chart
    " (Servus Klaus;-)), but we need to find out how to adapt the code so that it plots the data correctly against the X-axis values.
    Help!!!!
    Cheers,
    Robin.
    Here's the code we used
    chart:
    <Graph>
    <Title text="" visible="true" horizontalAlignment="CENTER"/>
    <LocalGridData colCount="{count(xdoxslt:group(.//ROW, 'TODATE'))}" rowCount="{count(xdoxslt:group(.//ROW, 'CODE'))}">
    <RowLabels>
    <xsl:for-each-group select=".//ROW" group-by="CODE">
    <Label><xsl:value-of select="./CODE"/></Label>
    </xsl:for-each-group>
    </RowLabels>
    <ColLabels>
    <xsl:for-each-group select=".//ROW" group-by="TODATE">
    <Label><xsl:value-of select="./TODATE"/></Label>
    </xsl:for-each-group>
    </ColLabels>
    <DataValues>
    <xsl:for-each-group select=".//ROW" group-by="CODE">
    <RowData>
    <xsl:for-each-group select="current-group()" group-by="TODATE">
    <Cell><xsl:value-of select="./PERFORMANCE"/></Cell>
    </xsl:for-each-group>
    </RowData>
    </xsl:for-each-group>
    </DataValues>
    </LocalGridData>

    Hi,
    I have finally found solution to this issue....
    Two setups are required to display the charts in the concurrent program's PDF output:
    1. We need to edit the variables CLASSPATH and AF_CLASSPATH. These variables should have the complete path added for the xdoparser.zip file on the server.
    2. The DISPLAY variable should be correctly setup to direct the server output.
    Also as per my findings so far, the BI (XML) publisher version 11.1.1.3.0 (or any 11g) does not work with EBS (at least for charts). We need to use BI publisher version which is XML 5.6.3 compatible for EBS. This version is 10.1.3.2.1. (patch 12395372) Now this 10g version does not work on Windows 7 so you need to use Windows XP!
    With this... finally... your charts should be getting displayed in EBS output...
    Cheers!! :-)

  • Changed image and description on xml for itunes, but has not shown up.

    I changed the image and description for iTunes, but my iTunes site does not show the changes. Any suggestions?

    Rob,
    I actually have 2 podcasts.
    S and S Show:
    iTunes url:
    http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=173173299&s=143 441&i=9388805

    RSS:
    http://feeds.feedburner.com/ReligionPoliticsAndOtherStuff
    The description I added for the S and S Show has worked. But for some reason, the description for my other site will show up and then disappear.
    The last time this happened, the description was gone from my xml file. I added it again, it then showed up again and now its gone again. No idea why this is happening.
    Thanks again,
