Oracle 11i   Reports Server Problem

When i tried to exploer the Service
Financials Intelligence - Vision Operations (USA)
in Oracle Applications 11i Server. It gives out the following error
Error: The requested URL was not found, or cannot be served at this time.
Oracle Reports Server CGI - Unable to communicate with the Reports Server.
Can anyone tell me what may be the cause for this error.
Earliest responses appreciated.
Thnks,
Sundar.

I have checked the reports server . It was not running. When i tried to restart the reports server service. It gives the following error message
Windows could not start the Oracle Report Server [Rep_60_vis] on Local Computer. For more information, review the system event log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, Contact the service vendor , and refer to service-specific error code 186.
BTW, Can you please let me know the file name of the Reports Server script so that i can have a look at it.

  • Oracle 10g Reports Server - problem authenticating against DB

    I have a problem with Oracle 10g Reports server authenticating against an Oracle RDBMS.
    When I try to run reports, an authentication form screen is presented, with the password field empty (the URL in explorer that loads this page contains the username and DB instance, but is missing the password) and the following error message:
    REP-51018: Need database user authentication
    When the password is entered into the empty field in the form and submitted, another 2 authentication errors are given.
    REP-51018: Need database user authentication
    REP-12545: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
    When the URL in the browser location field is manually altered to include the DB password, the reports are authenticated fine.
    Any ideas which config file I should be looking in?
    Any pointers would, of course, be much appreciated.
    thanks,
    Brian

    Hello, i finally have discovered what was happening, it has to be with the way FreeBSD passes the password field. By default FreeBSD passes the password field with a '*' while Oracle Linux (and Red Hat clones) expect an 'x' to look into shadow maps (Linux uses the '*' character in the password file to not allow login to that user).
    To solve it the password field served by the NIS server must be substituted, which is accomplished with nsswitch.conf and adding a line to the /etc/password file on the NIS Client, so the final files will look this way:
    # nsswitch.conf (compat directive allows us to use the '+' sintaxis in /etc/passwd file)
    passwd files compat
    # /etc/passwd (just add at the end of file)
    +:x:::::

  • How to configure oracle 6i report server run time component with application server

    we got oracle 6i report server for developing the web based reports for our undergoing product. we r succesed in developing the web based reports using oracle 6i report server.But we r facing problems while deploying the product with oracle reports at clients place,why because the client does not have the oracle 6i report server. To solve this problem we have to configure the oracle 6i report server run time component with application server at client side , but we are unable to configure this component(that is CGI handler).

    You can run multiple instances of Reports Server in 6i.
    In tnsnames.ora, for each server, have a different name and each listening to different port.
    For example,
    server1.world = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = myhost.mydomain.com)(Port = 1949))
    server2.world = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = myhost.mydomain.com)(Port = 1950))
    Also, if you want to know about Reports Server Clustering, you may refer to "Publishing Reports" document on OTN:

    I am assuming you are using 9iR2:
    1. start your infrastructure database
    2. start oid
    nohup oidmon start
    nohup oidctl server=oidldapd configset=0 instance=1 start
    3. check to see if things seem to be working properly in the infrastructure before starting the midtier
    dcmctl getstate -v (this will give you the status of the infrastructure components). If this comes back in error, you will need to solve this first.

  • Font mapping in Oracle 6i Report Server

    Dear All,
    I am creating a report which is required to display the Palatino Linotype font in the PDF format by using the Report Builder in MS Windows XP.
    After deploy to Oracle 6i report server which is running in Solaris, I was facing a problem to generate a PDF report in Palatino font. After a few tries to configure the uifont.ali I'm still failed to get the PDF report to display the font correctly.
    Below is the setting that I had been done, that is under the PDF section I had added in the mapping.
    [ PDF ]
    "Palatino Linotype" = palatino
    #"Times New Roman" = Times
    #"Courier New" = Courier
    #"Times Roman" = Times
    Could anyone help on this. Thanks in Advanced.

    The servlet runs on the server and only call the Reports 6i CGI. It isn't a true servlet in Reports 6i. I configured my servers to run reports 6i as a servlet and it was terrible. It crashed several times. After opening a tar with Oracle, I found that running Reports 6i as a servlet is a waste of time because it still uses the CGI to run the Report.
    Do a search on for a topic of "Configuring Apache Web Server".
    "The recommended way to use a web client in Reports 6i is cgi since 6i Report servlet essentially calls the c-code only inside and does not offer a true servlet based architectural benefit. 9iAS Rel-2 offers a true Servlet based architecture and offers much more performance and scalability gains for the user plus with all the new Reports 9i features."

  • How to add a new font into Report Builder and Oracle Forms/Reports Server?

    Hi,
    I've searched the forum and can't find this being discussed.
    My developers run Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2 on their XP laptops.
    Their reports run (in production) on Oracle Forms/Reports Server 10.1.2.0.2.
    This server runs on MS Windows 2003, SP2.
    They've got a client who wants reports using the "Garamond Western" font.
    So....how do I get this font onto the developer's Report Builder laptops, and onto the Oracle Forms/Reports Server?
    I've moved various 'Garamond' fonts into C:\WINDOWS\FONTS on both the laptops and the server, but neither seem to recognize it.
    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks.
    This answers 1/2 of my question.
    The developer can now use Report Builder on his laptop, with the new fonts.
    But when he moves this new Report to the Oracle Application Server/Forms-Reports Server, it fails to use the new fonts.
    The Oracle App Server/Forms-Report Server is Version 10.1.2.0.2. It runs on MS Windows 2003, SP2.
    I have installed the exact same fonts on this server, into C:\WINDOWS\Fonts.
    I have used REGEDIT to change REPORTS_PATH....and placed C:\WINDOWS\Fonts; as the first value in this field.
    I have then stopped and restarted the Forms-Reports Server.

  • Need information about Oracle Forms & Reports server installation

    Hello Friends,
    First of all I am very new user for oracle forums, So please ignore if I posted wrong place.
    We are using Oracle Database 10g and Oracle forms & Reports server 6i version.
    We just purchased oracle forms & reports (currently known as a Oracle Fusion middleware) license.  As per my knowledge latest version doesn't support Oracle 10g database.
    My question is can somebody give me Oracle Database 10g supported Forms & Reports version?
    We are planning to upgrade.
    Help would be really appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards.

    so that means I have three oracle report server on the network.
    but when I run the following command (rwdiag -findAll)on one of the servers, it gives me just two oracle report server exist on the network the third on is missing despite that it is up.
    And when I execute the same command (rwdiag -findAll) on the same server which contains the report server which I have problem with, it gives me that it is on the network.

  • Linux - Oracle - Crystal Report Server XI : Error in File Report1: Failed to load database information.

    I am using Crystal Reports Server XI on Linux Server with Oracle Server 10g.
    I did install Oracle Client on Report Server and config Oracle SID in tnsnames.ora also. It works well with tnsping command. Then, I published a report which was created in Crystal Reports developer on this server.
    When I preview the report on Report Server. I got the following error message:
    Error in File Report1: Failed to load database information.
    Try to fix the problem I ran web Central Management Console -> Objects ->Report1->Process -> Database and set there the following parameters:
    Database driver: Oracle
    Server: servers_host_name
    Database: (tried both ORACLE_SID and tns_name)
    User: oracle_user_name
    Password: oracle_pw
    It still got the same problem.
    I will appreciate any help.

    I was having a similar problem in Crystal Reports Server 2008 v1, and had to install the full client to resolve it, which I didn't like.  I poked around some, and was able to get the Instant Client working with a few minor changes.  Note that I tried it only with the 32-bit Instant Client even though I was on a 64-bit system because that was what SAP recommended when I talked to them.
    The changes I had to do was initialize the Oracle environment variables (the instant client doesn't have a script to do this for you) and to create a soft-link which is included in the full client, but not in the instant client.
    To setup the environment variables I created a file called env.sh and put it in /opt/crystal/bobje/setup/oracle/, where /opt/crystal was my install path.  This ensured that it got called by the /opt/crystal/bobje/setup/env.sh script which runs as part of the System init scripts to initialize the environment.  The following is what I put in my file (again for the 32-bit 11g R2 instant client):
         export ORACLE_SID=summitdb
         export ORACLE_HOME='/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client'
         export ORACLE_BASE='/usr/lib/oracle/'
         export TNS_ADMIN='/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client/network/admin'
         export PATH="$:/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client/bin"
         export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$$/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client/lib"
    After that, I created the missing soft link using this command:
         ln -s "$/lib/libclntsh.so.11.1" "$/lib/libclntsh.so.10.1"
    Once I had done those two things, and restarted the service using the /etc/init.d script, it worked fine.

  • Oracle 10g  Report Server is Not Starting Up?

    Hi,
    I have installed Oracle 10g Developer Suite (10.1.2.0.2) and OS is Windows 2003 Server R2 SP2 32-Bit, i have run this Command rwserver server = server name start for starting up my report server,it show error message REP-56105: Engine {0} died with error:* and report server status is shutdown.
    Please Advice,
    Thank You
    Shan

    1) Please post the version of Reports and the OS because some problems could be version specific and OS specific
    2) Enable tracing
    Edit
    $OH\reports\conf\server_name.conf
    And uncomment "trace" element. It should be like this
    <trace traceOpts="trace_all"/>
    Now we can see the engine trace also in logs directory. That may throw some light about the issue.
    3) Please try the following in conf file
    Comment the url engine element if you are not planning to use url engine
    <!--engine id="rwURLEng" .... /-->
    4) Increase callback timeout for rwEng engine element in conf file
    <engine id="rwEng" class="oracle.reports.engine.EngineImpl" initEngine="1" maxEngine="1" minEngine="0" engLife="50" maxIdle="30" callbackTimeOut="60000">

  • Report Server Problem

    I used rwserver -install repsrv, to install Reports Server and i use rp2rro.rp2rro_run_product(REPORTS,l_v4, SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl_id, NULL) to call a report.
    the path of the report is defined with a parameter i define in default.env file.
    When the report is in my computer the report runs. if the report is in a mapped network drive i get the message 41214-Unable to Run Report and then 41217-Unable to get Report job Status.
    I can't find whats going on. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.

    The current version of iAS cannot work with network drives. The files must be on a local disk.
    I hope Oracle will fix this problem in 9.0.4, since it is highly irritating when you must install your files on all machines if you have load-balanced your applications over several machines.
