Installation Oracle Reports 6i vs 2 NT on Windows XP

I want to install the reports 6i NT -CD on my Windows XP
and that doesn't work. The error after starting the setup is about orainst.exe. (of course it is working properly on windows-2000)
So the question is what can i do to get it working on Windows XP ? ( I make custom-reports for Oracle Applicatons financials 11i for our education company)

Tom,
Thanks for replying.
I don't see what I can compile. The initial program I am trying to compile is very simple it has a connect statement followed by the definition of a cursor, the cursor is opened and the fetch is performed. The program crashes on performing the open of the cursor. It seems to me that Pro*C is producing C output that the comipilers, (cl.exe in the visual studio .Net IDE, or mingw gcc for win32), cannot turn into runnable code on the Windows XP Professional platform. Pro*C is not open source code so I cannot recompile that, Microsoft cl.exe is most definately not open source. gcc is open source and I suppose I could recompile that but surely the mingw win32 compiler should work as it is standard and widely used. Anyway the output of both the compilers fails. Maybe I will compile gcc for my installation but it seems to me like Pro*C is probably the culprit here and trying to run the Oracle 8.1.7 version on XP may not be possible. I posted here in case this is a known problem.
Another thought has just occured to me that maybe I should try running a 10g or 9i version of Pro*C on the 8.1.7 installation. How would I get this? Would I have to install the whole installations to get the binary?

Installling Oracle 9.0.1.1.1 on Windows 2000

Hello,
I am not able to install Oracle 9.0.1.1.1 on WIndows 2000(service pack 2).
While installing Oracle 9i on Windows 2000(service pack 2), installer exits without showing or logging any error.
Does anybody know the reason/workaround for this problem?
Thanks.
Regards,
Hemant

how often did you try to install ?
maybe some log files of your previous installations
reside in your personal folder.
If the installer finds this information it will terminate
without warnings and errors.

Adarsh,
This needs to be in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or equivalent depending upon what Unix system you are on). If this file is not part of your installation, then you need to reinstall the product as your installation directory is incomplete.

Oracle reports installation into server

Hi,
We bought Oracle 10g to install in Solaris. The Sunguard database installer did not install Oracle 10g report into the server. How i could install only the oracle 10g reports into Solaris ?

What do you mean with Oracle 10g report? Are you talking about an Application Server install? Are you talking about Oracle reports from developer suite?

Oracle report installation and system flow

Please help me to give some inputs for the oracle development. The 12 reports wont integrate with the existing system because it was not built by us and also I want to know how the oracle report installation will be done. Please update my diagram scenario of the proposed solution as below
Problems Faced in the existing system:-
================================
•     12 Critical Finance Reports not generated according to user requirements
•     Most of basic feature for reporting purposes are not implemented in current system which is in Oracle Apps 11i - E-Business Suite
•     Takes a lot of time to prepare reports which are needed to be presented for management meetings.
Proposed System
===============
Expectation
•     The finance dept plans to redevelop 12 new critical reports for their system
•     The new implementation must be compatible with the future migration of current Oracle Apps 11i - E-Business Suite to Oracle Apps version 12.
Solution
The new development will be built using the oracle reports and won’t be integrated with the existing application. Oracle reports do not require any specific installation to be done at client PC.
Advantages
•     If it's from a desktop users may find it easier to fire the reports as they may not require to login to Apps.
•     When the Report is displayed, the user can simply generate the report to several formats like PDF, XLS, HTML, RTF, XML etc.
•     Oracle Reports is reliable: You can serve thousands of concurrent users in a secure and reliable manner.
•     Oracle Reports has the ability to apply changes to a report based on a customization file in XML either at runtime or in batch.
Proposed system flow for Oracle reports development
=========================================
12 reports to be installed onto the Red Hat AS3 system <--------------Red Hat AS3(Oracle E-Business Suite Ver 11i (Apps) and Oracle Database Ver 9.2.0.5) -----> Oracle Database

There are groups specific to e-Business Suite. Please delete this post and post your inquiry there.

Oracle report writer installation

We have installed Oracle 10g in our server. How we can install Oracle Report into our server. I do not know whether we have Oracle Report installed already along with 10g. If we do, how we can find out through unix? How we can bring it up through Unix. Please help

I'd suggest posing this question on the Reports forum here on OTN. I don't believe there's anything ODBC-related at work here.

Help needed for MySQL 5 database DSN less connection with Oracle reports

Hi,
I am using Oracle Develper Suite and java (J2EE) for my application. I am using MySql 5 as database tool. I want to use Oracle reports of Oracle Develper suite. I have created some reports by first creating system DSN for MySql database and then connect Oracle reports to that DSN by "jdbc:odbc" connection string provided in Oracle Report developer wizard. This is working fine.
I want to generate reports without creating system DSN (DSN less) so that i can use my application on any computer without creating DSN for Oracle Reports. I am deploying my application on OC4j as "EAR" file.
Help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Regards.

Using an 8i client, you will need to configure the tnsnames.ora file with appropriate connection information if you are using local naming. If you are using host naming or something like an Oracle Names server to resolve TNS aliases, you can skip the tnsnames.ora configuration. A default installation of the Oracle client, though, will probably be using local naming.
If the tnsnames.ora file is configured, or you have configured an alternate way of resolving TNS aliases, you should be able to use the connection string
DRIVER={Oracle ODBC Driver};DBQ=<<TNS alias>>;UID=system;PWD=managerIf you wanted to move to the 10g client (the 10g Instant Client could be useful here), there are some streamlined naming methods that could be used instead of configuring the tnsnames.ora file.

Oracle Reports 6i with Oracle 8.1.7?

Solaris 7 (sparc)
Oracle RDBMS 8.1.7
Reports 6i (release 2)
I am trying to install Reports 6i on a machine that has Oracle RDBMS 8.1.7 installed already. The last time I tried installing to the same ORACLE_HOME it corrupted all my executables. After reading the docs again, I noticed the Reports docs say Reports requires Orcle 8.0.6. I thought it might be better to install to a new ORACLE_HOME (/u01/app/oracle/product/8.0.6), however, there is no RDBMS installed there and the installer complains.
Could someone offer some suggestions on how it should be installed in this type of environment. What steps should be followed to allow Oracle Reports 6i to co-exist peacefully on the same machine/ORACLE_HOME as the Oracle 8.1.7 instance.
Thanks

I found the answer myself in an earlier post.
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by The Oracle Reports Team:
Reports 6i will connect to Oracle8i, however you need to connect over Net8 - i.e. on the database side, you need to set up the TNS listener to accept connections, and on the Reports side (which, incidentally, needs to be installed in a separate Oracle_home) you need to configure the tnsnames.ora file to connect to the 'remote' database (since it is in a different oracle_home, to all intents and purposes it may as well be on another machine - it's all considered 'remote').

Oracle Reports printer setup

Hi Guys.
I am an Oracle Applications DBA and I know how to setup printing in Oracle Applications.
However, our client has got one installation of Oracle Application Server 10g and has deployed Oracle Forms and Reports Services.
They have configured printing for Oracle Reports for their setup, which I am not aware of how they did or how it is done in Oracle Forms and Reports.
The problems at hand are -
Problem number 1 - Over here a line printer i.e. 132 column one has been attached to the 10g Application Server from the USb port. The Application server is on Windows 2003 server machine. When we fire reports we can see in print queue request being fired but no putput is coming. If we open Reports builder on a developer machine and from there we fire we do get print out but this time developers machine Print dialoag comes. On developer machine we have mapped to same printer which is attached to the 10g AS machine
Problem number 2 - As mentioned earlier its a 132 column printer so what is the paper size to be picked. From articles it is Letter paper size or US Std Fanfold paper size.
Problem Number 3 - Suppose we try Arabic report since its arabic in the report designer we change direction to Right To Left, if we fire this report some columns almost 20 characters are cut -off. If we fire same report with default direction set in designer, whole data comes
Problem number 4 - If we give output to Excel or PDF i.e. Desformat Spreadsheet or PDF, the arabic data all come out rubbish junk.
Apart from getting help on the above mentioned issues, I would request you guys to help me in finding out how to setup the printing for standalone application server forms and reports.
Thanks,
Muneer.

Sending oracle report automatically

Hello,
Can anybody help in figuring from oracle reports 10g to send automatically to pdf format report to a sepcific email address? if could please give a sample code to achieve thsi?
Thanks a lot...

I am currently working on a solution for this. The report server and installation environment were causing it's share of issues, most of which I think I have overcome. I am currently having problems with our Report Server with large number of pages. But for small reports it is working.
But it depends on your definition of 'automatic'. We have a custom scheduling tool that runs a Unix script that calls the report server with runtime parameters. After report is generated we use another custom Unix script to create an email attachment combining email header and footer text along with mime settings.
If you are trying to do this form Windows - no help.

How to install Oracle Report Services in Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.1

My project is running on Oracle Application Server(OAS) 10.1.3.1, and I need to develop some Oracle Reports for my client.
But I find out there is not "Oracle Report Services" component in OAS 10.1.3.1 like OAS 10.1.2.
Is there Oracle Report Services for OAS 10.1.3.1? How to get it?

Max Yuan wrote:
You mean I need to install 2 OAS(10.1.2 for report, 10.1.3 for my project), or deploy my project to 11g? For the Reports reporting project, you'll need a version/edition that includes AS Reports Services.
In "10gr2" that means AS 10.1.2.0.2 (plus Patch set): AS Infrastructure + AS BI&Forms installation (enterprise edition) or the standalone Forms and Reports installation (EE or separate licensing). You also need the Developer Suit (Reports Builder). OFM "11gr1" suite has some version of Reports Services but I don't know the available packages and installation types.

Run XML Publisher Report via URL (like Oracle Reports)

Hi All,
Is it possible to run xml-publisher report via URL?
In Oracle Reports works this fine:
http://test:7777/reports/rwservlet?server=test_bihome1&report=test1.rdf&userid=test/testv@db&desformat=pdf&destype=cache
We need this for public reports without user login.
Thanks
Thomas

Thomas,
I was waiting to get home before Tim replied... He got the better of me this time :-)
You say you want to let your users run reports using XMLP just by clicking on an URL same way you do with reports and without having to login. If I got the question right and assuming that:
1.Your company is not overly concerned on who runs what reports
2.Who sees what data
3.Your XMLP installation is on your intranet and firewalled from the outside
What you can do is:
On the main page of your XMLP Enterprise installation you should see a folder called "Guest". Any report you create under this folder is run as user "guest" which means you don't have to authenticate yourself as you would normally do.
I have tested this on my home server and this is what I've done:
1.Logged in as admin or any other user you've created with admin privileges created a report under the "Guest" folder.
2.Copied the URL, on my server it is "http://samba.private.net:15101/xmlpserver/Guest/People/People.xdo"
4.Logged off as admin and pasted the URL to a new browser window
5.Hit return and Voila, my report runs without the need to login to XMLP.
Hope this helps. Let us know how you got on.
Cheers,
Joao
PS: If you want to see the report for yourself here's the URL from the outside: http://medeiros.homelinux.net:15101/xmlpserver/Guest/People/People.xdo
I'll keep the link alive for a couple of days.

Error in job execution in oracle reports

Hi,
The end user is getting the following error when executing a job in Oracle reports.
" RWCGI GET JOB OUTPUT
Cannot get output of Job ID 4 you requested on December ,08 2008 , 11:35:18
Job is not done yet .Try again later"
Can you please help .PLEASE !!!

Hi
Metalink is reporting some similar errors, please see that:
Cause
SSO turned on for one component only, either Forms or Reports.
This problem has been reported and is documented in an unpublished bug.
Solution
To take advantage of SSO, out-of-the-box, the SINGLESIGNON parameter in the
rwservlet configuration file (rwservlet.properties) is set to YES to indicate
that you will use single sign-on to authenticate users. You may change this to
NO if you choose to not use single sign-on. If you choose NO, the Reports
Server will use its own authentication mechanism to authenticate users (i.e.,
the mechanism used in Reports6i). The rwservlet configuration file is usually
found in the ORACLE_HOME\reports\conf directory. This value is usually
commented out after installation however the default value is YES.
This is the expected behavior. For the Forms/Reports integration, Forms will send
to Reports thecurrent SSO user. However, with this particular configuration, you
still log into SSO to run Reports. Thus, nexttime you run the form, you are logged
into SSO and thus things work because Forms passes thatSSO user info to Reports.
The way to not have the report run the 2nd time would be to log off of SSO when the first
form was exited, but that defeats the purpose of SSO in the first place!
So enable for Forms and Reports SSO or disable SSO for both.

In the document 294932.1 Section 4 there are no pre-installation patches or update for OS RedHat LinuxAS4.
When I type echo $LD_ASSUME_KERNEL it doesn't display any value so do I need to set the LD_Assume_Kernal value manually.
If yes, please let me know the path and command to set the kernel value.
