Oracle Fusion Middleware - Oracle Reports - remote client

Hello,
Our setup involves an Oracle Reports server running on a farm. There is a Oracle Forms application that is used to call the reports and generate the reports.
There is a plan to have a batch functionality to generate the reports. Is it possible to have a client installed on a separate server that would be able to interact with the Reports server and generate the reports ?
If so what should be installed on the separate client unix device ? (e.g. similar to how we can install Oracle Client tools on a system and then use sqlplus to login to and interact with the database )
I have been reading up on rwclient.sh . However I could not find this in the Oracle Client folder.
Any assistance would be appreciated !
Thank you,
S. Krishnan

Hi,
there is no Oracle Reports client software similar to sqlplus instant client.
If you want to use rwclient.sh then you will need to do a full install in order to get all the components you need. Make sure the servers are in the same subnet so the remote server can access the reports server running on the other server. If not, no worries, you can configure namingservices to get that to work.

  • Report Builder is not exist in fusion middleware forms&reports installation

    Dear All,
    i have installed oracle fusion middleware forms & report services ofm_frmrpts_win_11.1.2.1.0_64_disk1_1of1.
    form builder is there, but the report builder is not there? why? where is report builder?
    Regards.

    Hi Maahjoor,
    Try Starting Report Builder using the rwbuilder.bat found in the %ORACLE_INSTANCE%\config\reports\bin\ directory.
    If you still getting issues
    a)Backup the %ORACLE_INSTANCE%\config\reports\bin\ rwbuilder.bat file
    b)Now modify rwbuilder.bat file from the %ORACLE_HOME%\bin\rwbuilder.bat file,by manually hard-coding the correct paths for:
    $$Instance.directory$$\config\reports\bin\reports.bat
    $$Instance.oracle_home$$\bin\rwbuilder.exeThat is, if your instance home is C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_inst1, then change the rwbuilder.bat to reflect:
    C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_inst1\config\reports\bin\reports.bat
    C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_inst1\bin\rwbuilder.exe
    c)Then, re-execute the modified rwbuilder.bat file from the %ORACLE_INSTANCE%\config\reports\bin\ .
    If it still doesnt work...

    our company will do implantation for fusion middleware (forms & reports).
    we set with consultant to design the proper structure, design contain one load balancer and 2 servers, and one server in duster recovery.
    during explanation, he told us will be a cluster between reports in tow servers to reduce the hits.
    I can not able to understand this point, and if this correct ,
    why there is a cluster between forms in tow servers as well?
    could you please advice in this matter.

    Hi,
    1)As per certification matrix Forms and Reports 11.1.1.7.0 is supported on Windows 2012.
       So in order to install Forms and Reports you need to first install the Forms and Reports software binaries then need to run the config.sh command from %ORACLE_HOME%/bin.
       No need to create any domain using the config.sh from Weblogic home.
    2)Please see if the below prerequisites were met :-
       . Assign Proper ip, hostname & domain name
      . Entry of ip, host name & domain name in etc/hosts file
      . Disable anti-virus if any
      . Disable ipv6, a
      . Disable Windows Firewall, Windows Update & Windows Management Instrumentation at Service level (services.msc)
      . Create 2 folder "tmp" & "Java" for temp, jdk & jre installation. And set the path of installed jdk in Environment Variable

  • Oracle XE- Remote client Connect ?

    Is XE like the old personal oracle where it is installed on a developers local machine and user access is only through a local SQLPLUS connection (or some development tool local to the XE database), or can it be accessed by a remote client OCI, JDBC , etc.

    Yes remote connections are allowed. If they are enabled and allowed by the host.
    If the client has the correct configuration to get to the database, the database listener is running, and the host does not have the listener port blocked in the firewall.
    If you don't want remote connections, stop the listener. Or leave the listener port blocked in the firewall that will have the same effect as stopping the listener.
    Or shutdown the database. That will also have the same effect.

  • Running Oracle Reports via a client using system.exec call from war file

    Hi all,
    I am trying to deploy a war file application to a J2EE 10.1.3 application server. The deployment successfully completes. However testing the application fails.
    When testing, the application reveals that calling a Oracle Reports 6i client (using a cmd line exec) from the war file returns application errors. The errors we get from executing the call below (using debug statements), creates this error:
    OperatingSystemCmd: cmd = D:\Oracle\Dev6i\BIN\rwcli60 MODULE="CLTMLST" USERID="<userid>/<pwd>@<db>" DESTYPE="FILE" DESFORMAT="PDF" DESNAME="<path>\<pdf filename>.PDF" PARAMFORM="NO" BACKGROUND="NO" SERVER="r6i.world" TOLERANCE=0 ADVCODE="<param>"
    OperatingSystemCmd: Command returned 3
    WrsRunReport: Done executing report
    WrsRunReport: Error running report Return code 3
    Error on Screen is REP-0178 : Cannot connect to reports service.
    However running the same command from a operating system command prompt in windows reveals that the command runs successfully.
    Is there any particular OC4J J2EE settings that are required to get this statement to run properly?
    Any help is most appreciative.
    Cheers

    Hi All,
    From much research and experimenting to get this to work I looked at the java.lang.Runtime class and noticed that seperate processes can be started using this very important Java class.
    The first thing that I experimented with was in regards to seeing the environment OC4J runs against. Using the java.lang.Runtime class I executed a standard "cmd /c set" command in my Windows environment, and noticed that Oracle Application Server uses its own environment and not a standard windows login environment for its OC4J containers. Apache Tomcat on the other hand uses the standard user login environment.
    So to get the application to be able to work properly we needed to override the particular environment the process needed to be able to get it to work. There is a exec command which allows you to override completely the environment for a process you would like to run. This method call does not in any way shape or form change the standard OC4J environment. This was done by executing the same "set" but with the overriden environment. Note that no environment variables from the OC4J container are carried into this new environment.
    Cheers

  • Chinese Character in PDF format for Oracle Reports 11g

    Hello Everyone,
    Currently we have a Report that need to be display chinese character in PDF format.
    We followed the steps specified in the "Oralce Fusion Middleware Publishing Reports to the Web with Oracle Reports Services"
    documentation but things doesn't work. We also installed Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 and Asian Font Pack 9 on the server side
    and even on the client/user/development side and followed the steps in the documentation, but no effect at all. Or we even
    tried "Arial Unicode MS", same thing no effect.
    For sure, we may miss something during PDF aliasing or PDF subsetting setup.
    Anyone out there who has the same experience and able to resolve the issue that currently using the Oralce Fusion Middleware Reports 11g?
    Doesn't matter if it does not related to chinese character, as long as it relates to this issue like japanese or arabic characters in PDF.
    If its ok, kindly provide the steps how you do it.
    Your help is highly appreciated.
    Regards and Thank you very much!

    I am now facing exactly the same problem as user449955 (Eric's). Dear Eric, how about your situation? If you have resolved this problem, may I ask for your solution?
    In my case, using either font aliasing or font subsetting doesn't work at all (displaying "garbage" characters instead of Chinese characters). The setting in my uifont.ali is as follows:
    If using font aliasing:
    [PDF]
    .....ZHT16HKSCS = "MSungStd-Light-Acro"
    If using font subsetting (the REPORTS_PATH already includes "C:\Windows\Fonts"):
    [PDF:Subset]
    "Courier New" = "mingliu.ttc,2"
    For both cases, the report server's NLS_LANG already set to "TRADITIONAL CHINESE_HONG KONG.ZHT16HKSCS" (I am in fact located at Hong Kong). For font aliasing, the client side already has Asian Adobe Reader with Asian font pack installed.
    By the way, I noticed that the WebLogic EM is configuring/updating the uifont.ali file at "<instance home>\config\FRComponent\frcommon\tools\common" directory, but the Oracle Reports 11g's documentation sometimes advise to refer to another uifont.ali file located at "<instance home>\config\FRComponent\frcommon\guicommon\tk\admin" directory. Which one of the uifont.ali files is the one used by the Oracle Reporting Service?
    My report server's platform is Windows 7 Enterprise (64-bit) and the Reports version is 11.1.1.3.
    Anyone can help to advise?
    Thank you very much.
    Regards

  • Print report to client printer from forms

    Hi,
    I need to print a report directly to a client printer.
    There is a utility called ORARRP - Oracle Reports Remote Printing Utility.
    But the document I saw was from Oct 2001 - so is this still the only and best option ?
    I'm using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT in forms to launch the report.
    This works fine when the DESTYPE is FILE and DESNAME = PDF
    The PDF-outputt is then successfully shown with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT
    When changing DESTYPE to PRINTER and DESNAME to clients printername then report won't run. "Report filed with error message TERMINATED_WITH_ ERROR".
    Is it possible to print directly to a client printer using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT ?
    (Our client printers are not networkprinters)
    Environment:
    Forms [32 Bit] version 9.0.4.0.19
    Report Builder 9.0.4.0.33
    Reportsserver on linux
    Thanks !
    Sam

    (Our client printers are not networkprinters)This means you cannot print from the server directly on the client printer with destype=printer, since the server cannot see the printer.
    So, a manual print command by the user from the browser or the orarrp utility are your options.

  • Oracle 11g Fusion Middleware (11.1.1.3.0) Report Configuration Issue

    Oracle 11g Fusion Middleware (11.1.1.3.0) Report Configuration Issue
    =============================================
    Hi All,
    I have installed Oracle 11g Fusion Middleware (11.1.1.3.0) on Oracle Linux 5 and getting some issues while configuring. What's happening is that when I run my report, it looks for the library attached to it. If I define the REPORTS_PATH in reports.sh, it works fine.
    What I want to achieve is to push reports to use REPORTS_PATH environment variable from rwserver.conf instead of reports.sh
    Someone told me to remove the REPORTS_PATH from reports.sh and add the REPORTS_PATH from reports.sh to a default.env in rwserver.conf, but it didn't worked.
    What I know about the report server stuff in 11g Fusion Middleware is that it consists of two different servers (Standalone and In Process). Our application runs report using SRW.RUN_REPORT which basically use In Process report server setting in rwserver.conf to run the report.
    The heirarchy in which reports try to look for the REPORTS_PATH is
    1) REPORTS.sh
    2) rwserver.conf
    3) Settings as per Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Settings.
    My standalone report server name is ReportsServer_hostname_asinst_F and the In Process Server name is rep_wls_reports_hostname_asinst_frd. When I define rep_wls_reports_hostname_asinst_frd (In process Report Server Name) for the server name parameter, I do not get any results for the report run using srw.run_report. Also I can't see the reason behind the report executed because of the following issue
    http://hostname:8888/reports/rwservlet/showjobs?server=rep_wls_reports_hostname_asinst_frd
    REP-51019: System user authentication is missing.
    ** the Singlesignon in rwservlet.properties is defined as no
    But when I define ReportsServer_hostname_asinst_F (Standalone Report Server Name) as server parameter and ran the report using srw.run_report, I get result with the REPORTS_PATH defined in reports.sh not using rwserver.conf file.
    http://hostname:8888/reports/rwservlet/showjobs?server=ReportsServer_hostname_asinst_F
    (which shows the report just run).
    Can someone who did Report Server configuration using ENV files (changing rwserver.conf), pls. send me the screenshots. Want to make sure if I am changing the correct files under correct location.
    Pls. feel free to ask me questions related to the environment set up.
    Thanks
