Oracle 9i Report service

Does anyone have any knowledge of 9i Report Service? Our intention is to provide web based reporting to our users with ability to control their access and remove their dependency of having connected to the network. We want our users to have global access to our data through the report mechanism and be able to connect to the net and view it from any where any time. I have heard, Oracle 9iAS along with 9i Report Service can perform this task.
Is there anyone who have done similar setup and has used 9iAS. I will be very appreciative, if anyone can share there setbacks and/or transition process. you can send me email directly if possible.
Thanks in advance,

Oracle 9i Reports Services Server Log option

Hi,
We are using the Oracle 9i Reports Services on NT and solaris. But I facing peculiar problem in Solaris
1. Oracle 9i Reports is installed by our DBA with dba permissions.
2. I as user is not able to run the rwserver.exe as it is saying that it did not have root permissions to write on the log files which are present in the directory: ORACLE_HOME\reports\logs\*.log.
3 My issue is that why Oracle is writing in the ORACLE_HOME directory which in most of the cases will be installed by dba.
4. My question is how do I change the default ORACLE_HOME\reports\logs\ directory so that when my server runs it creates log in MY_DIR\log
5. I have checked some option in the server.conf, there is one element for log which allows to set alljobs/succecedjobs/failedjobs/nojob. But even this option for nojob is not working.
It will be nice if somebody can help me on this.
Thanks
Ashish

* If tracing is what you want you can give
tracefile=<absoluteFileName>
in command line to give a user defined file
* Other than this I think there is no way to change the default log location
Other Options
* Ask your dba to give write permissions for all in log directory
Thanks

Certificate for Solaris 10 on Oracle reports services

Hi All,
We are changing our OS from HP UX to solaris 10. In the fusion middleware certificate, it has been mentioned as the Solaris 10 update 4+ OS does not support Oracle Forms builder and Reports builder
Can some one help me to confirm if really the Oracle report services 11g is not supported by Solaris 10? if not, can u please give me some other reference (apart from fusion m/w certificate) where I could confirm that this is not supported. As well as can we maintain the Oracle 10g report services in Solaris 10 if the DB is 11g.
Thanks,
Jeya

Hi,
You go in DB13 and Schedule backup online with redolog file, and for offline database with redolog file.
Please use tape media name in both the backup.
Tape media nameing procedure.
login in prd server in root,
#su - <sid>adm
#brbackup - i force -v <tapemedia name> (for ex. XXPB01)
The same name you will use at the time of backup schedule.

Yes, by using SSO you can achieve it. The partner applications should be registered with SSO.
Method will depend on your version of OAS for the two applications.

PSP Vs Oracle 9iAS Form/Report Services

Hi All,
what is the difference in using the PSP and 9iAS Report/Form services, Can i use Oracle Form/Report Services in place of PSP, if so how and if not what i have to check for the other alternatives in ORacle for report/form designing as my project has 1000+ reports.

If the two AS installs are fresh, I suggest that you wipe (uninstall) them both and re-install AS either with BI Forms option or the standalone F & R variant.
Be sure to read the accompanying Installation Guide thoroughly before installing.

Accessing ESSO Reporting Services Console

Hi to everyone,
I have just deployed the Oracle ESSO Reporting Services (version 11.1.1.5.0) with MS SQL Server 2008 R2 database to collect events about ESSO-LM. Both the Reporting Console and database are on the same server with Windows Server 2008 R2.
Events from one, test, client (there are no others at the moment) are being written to the database well, but I can not access the Reporting Console via web browser. As soon as I fill the user credentials, the login process starts but fails with the following errors (depending on the Silverlight):
==== with Silverlight 5.1.20913.00 ====
[Async_ExceptionOccurred]
Arguments:
Debugging resource strings are unavailable. Often the key and arguments provide sufficient information to diagnose the problem. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=106663&Version=5.1.20913.00&File=System.dll&Key=Async_ExceptionOccurred

I have also tried to install different version of Silverlight on the client site but that did not change the behaviour a bit.
The browser I use is default installation of Internet Explorer 8, which is the company standard, but the error occured also on Firefox 3.5.18. The error shows both when connecting to the Reporting Console via network from PC station as well as when launching the console localy on the server.
I have tried to rebuild the environment with no success.
What perplexes me is the fact, that I have been able to successfully implement the ESSO Reporting Services in our lab enviroment where I have not experienced this.
I have found a thread here dealing with this problem dating a few years back but with no solution. Have any of you happened to see this? If so, were you able to solve it? Could you please give me any hint which direction to go to solve this?
Thank you in advance,
Ondrej

The problem disappeared on its own over the weekend.

How to maximize the performance of report service 9i?

I have a report running in Oracle 9iAS report service. The report is invoked from forms by PL/SQL function run_report_object and generated into PDF file. The report is so complex that the RDF file size reaches to 6MB.
Now it takes about 30 seconds to run the report. My form service and report service are installed on same machine which has 2 intel XEON 2G CPU and 4G memory. If i run the report twice at same time, the report jobs are put into a queue and runs one by one, so it take me 60 seconds. I find the CPU loading is about 20% during the report is running, it means the report service did not make the base of CPU.
How can report service process multi jobs at same on a multi CPU machine? What is the best config in report service about engine number?

Hi,
Whenever you start a new Reports Server in 9iAS, by default it starts 1 Reports Engine (rwEng). You can increase the number of engines to 2 for processing the 2 jobs simultaneously. you can do this by using the Oracle Enterprise Manager (via the browser). You can also change the following parameters in the server config file directly
file name: OH/reports/conf/<your_reports_server_name>.conf
<engine id="rwEng" ... initEngine="1" maxEngine="1" minEngine="0" ... >
You can either increase both initEngine and maxEngine to 2, only maxEngine. In the latter case, the second reports engine will be started only when needed.
However, increasing the number of engines will obviously increase the overhead. The optimum value for number of engines depends on your machine, load, response characteristics required, etc. You can test with a few values to arrive at an optimum number.
I would recommend going through the Oracle Reports Tuning whitepaper

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.

Reporting Services connections are getting dropped by Oracle RAC

My current customer is using Oracle RAC (11g) for their data store. They currently are using SQL Server Reporting Services to connect to it. We are experiencing an issue where the connection appears to be redirected at the server which causes the connection to be lost with the client.
I am curious if this is "by design" or if we need to review some configuration settings to better handle this.
We have 3 VIPs fronting the RAC and they are all specified in the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
Any feedback or input on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I suggest you look at:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/clustering/overview/awm11gr2-130711.pdf
and the similar paper from 11.1:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/clustering/overview/awmrac11g-133673.pdf
This explains the basic concept, of how clients should connect to the database, and probably clarifies your issue.
In generall Oracle will not redirect during runtime, only during connection time.
This however should not be of an issue, if you connect to a service. (You shouldn't connect to a SID since 8.1.7 anymore).

Passing MS Reporting Services parameters to Oracle

We're using Reporting Services 2005 to create reports using data from Oracle 8i.
SQL:
SELECT RN, DTTM from Table
WHERE DTTM between :Date1 and :Date 2
AND KEYMAP = :KMAP
The query works in design view with the dates but not when the KEYMAP is added. Error: "ORA-12704 character set mismatch" occurs although the character sets are the same in SQL Server and Oracle. KEYMAP in SQL Server defaults to String and KEYMAP in Oracle is Varchar2.
Any ideas?

We have no control over the Oracle data and data definition. We can only access it to generate reports.If you do not have access to a development instance of the database to develop and test against, then the only other thing that you can see for pointers is the error description from Oracle (since I do not have MS Reporting Services to test with and you do not have Oracle database to experiment on, this may be something to try):
ORA-12704 character set mismatch
Cause: One of the following:
The string operands (other than an NLSPARAMS argument) to an operator or built-in function do not have the same character set.
An NLSPARAMS operand is not in the database character set.
String data with character set other than the database character set is passed to a built-in function not expecting it.
The second argument to CHR() or CSCONVERT() is not CHAR_CS or NCHAR_CS.
A string expression in the VALUES clause of an INSERT statement, or the SET clause of an UPDATE statement, does not have the same character set as the column into which the value would be inserted.
A value provided in a DEFAULT clause when creating a table does not have the same character set as declared for the column.
An argument to a PL/SQL function does not conform to the character set requirements of the corresponding parameter.
Action: Strings declared with NCHAR or NCHAR VARYING do not interoperate with strings declared with CHAR or VARCHAR2. Use TRANSLATE() function to explicitly convert one to the other.

How To Execute an Oracle 10g SProc using VS 2005, for Reporting Services

Good day! :-)
Anybody who knows the syntax for executing an Oracle Stored Proc thru ODBC connection using VS 2005 for Reporting Services? I am having a problem about this.
I am using the ODBC connection because VS 2005 does not support Oracle Database 10g in its Oracle Database Connection feature (only 7.3, 8i, and 9i), that's y.
While using MS SQL Server 2000, I never encountered any problem. But using Oracle Database 10g, I find it hard to call the stored procedures, an error is generated everytime.
Please click the link below for the screenshots:
http://www.geocities.com/vrcode2/oraError.JPG
http://www.geocities.com/vrcode2/storedProc.JPG
Please help...thank you so much.
Francis

I'll give you updates about the use of the MS SQL Server Reporting Services with VS 2005 and Oracle, this might be helpful for those who will encounter this same ctuation in the future.
I have discovered that if you're going to connect thru ODBC, even if the connection is successful, the user is still prompted to input a password, which should not be the case when using the Reporting Services. Another thing to take note is the issue about REF CURSOR, we're going to have problems with this. And also the syntax on how you're going to call the stored procedures (with or without input parameters).
With modifications made through Oracle Net Manager, and I tried AGAIN connecting through "Oracle (client)" feature of VS 2005 (even if the list only include Oracle 7.3, 8i, and 9i that are supported) with some changes also, you'd still be able to generate correct data with that solution. If the configuration is correct, you just need to call the stored procedure (with or without input parameter), you won't have any problems about the correct syntax.
I suppose VS 2005 was released earlier than Oracle 10g, that's why 10g wasn't included If ever u'd encounter the same ctuation like mine, and u need the details on how to connect, do not hesitate to ask me.

Oracle Application server Forms and Report services 10.1.2.0.2 on Windows 2

Hi,
I am installing the Oracle Application server Forms and Report services 10.1.2.0.2 on Windows 2003 R2, but the problem is that setup is not running on this Windows 2003 R2 version.
Any idea about this why it is not running.

You asked this
How can i find what is the latest version that i can upgrade this install to
I told you where to find the last update, I checked that version yesterday, the last update is 10.1.2.3, my misstake was to put a 0 before the 3.
You can go to Patches & update>Quick Links to: Latest Patchsets, Mini Packs and Maintenance Packs>Oracle Fussion Middle Ware> Look for you OS versión and CPU> No clic just put pointer over the links and you will see the last one.
And finaly could look for the CPU of Jul and Apr that as requirement they ask for version 10.1.2.3 (as I say I checked yesterday)
