How to Run Oracle Reports from the web.

How can we run Oracle Reports from the web - for example from a portal such as "Gateway"
This is a univeristy that implements Banner - so can we run them from within Banner?

Yes, of course. And for running the reports-server you need an OAS. Maybe here is a good starting point http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/reports.html

Showing Oracle reports in current web application with JBOSS as AS

hi:
I have installed the Oracle AS(10g 10.1.2.0.2) and the reports services... I have also installed the Stand Alone J2EE Thin Client (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/examples/Tools/index.html)
My current web project uses JBoss and I have to show oracle reports keeping the current environment.
I have followed the steps provided on the doc mentioned in the above link.
first i did the following steps ( please refer to the text of that readme doc below)
(//text of readme doc, I have done these steps
1. Deploy THINCLIENT_HOME/reports/j2ee/reports.ear on the J2EE application server.
2. Add the following JAR files to the classpath of the J2EE application server:
* THINCLIENT_HOME/reports/jlib/rwrun.jar
* THINCLIENT_HOME/jlib/zrclient.jar
3. Use THINCLIENT_HOME/vbroker4/lib/vbjboot.jar while starting the application server.
but i cannot understand what is written just next to the above llines in that doc I am pasting those points from that doc
(text of readme doc:
The following section provides detailed instructions on carrying out the above 3 configuration steps with OC4J Standalone Distribution 10g (9.0.4). You need to consult your J2EE application server's documentation to carry out the same steps for your application server.
1. Add the following to OC4J_HOME/j2ee/home/config/server.xml
<application name="reports" path="<THINCLIENT_HOME>/reports/j2ee/reports.ear" auto-start="true" />
2. Add the following to OC4J_HOME/j2ee/home/config/http-web-site.xml
<web-app application="reports" name="web" root="/reports"/>
3. Add the following to OC4J_HOME/j2ee/home/config/application.xml
<library path="<THINCLIENT_HOME>/reports/jlib/rwrun.jar"/>
<library path="<THINCLIENT_HOME>/jlib/zrclient.jar"/>
according to what i understood i went to OC4J which is under my Oracle_Infra directory and then completed the above steps
after that I ran the command (according to this doc):
java -Xbootclasspath/p:<THINCLIENT_HOME>/vbroker4/lib/vbjboot.jar -jar oc4j.jar
the result of this command is following
06/02/09 14:57:37 Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE 10g (9.0.4.0.0) initialized
and then it never comes back to command prompt
Now after all these steps...i don't understand what to do next and my problem is still there which is How to deploy reports made by oracle reports from my web project links
please help
Waqas

If the links in your example report1 and report2
follow my format stated earlier
http://machine:port/reports/rwservlet/report=reportnam
e.rdf&destype=cache& paramform=htmlcss&server=<YourReportSe
rverName>&userid=scott/tiger@hrdb&desformat=pdf
This is what I believe
>
so http://machine:port/ is the port where
JBoss is running and
This should be the port that the report server is listening on
>
server=<YourReportServerName> is the name of
my oracle report server
so I call the above link in my current application
and the report would show up
Yes
>
that means (correct me if I am wrong) that my reports
would have to be deployed in OracleAS
Yes
>
I have to try all this yet as till this point I was
trying to run Oracle reports deployed in JBoss...
This may be possible, I am not sure.

Oracle J2EE Thin Client?
I am not sure what this is used for in your setup.

Displaying report in .pdf format while Running oracle reports over the web

I am running a report over the web via IE. I am suing .pdf
format as the file type. The problem I am facing is that the
report comes out with a blank in acrobat reader if there are
just one or two records - i.e less thatn one pagefull. THe
reports displays output only when there ar more than one
pagefull of records.
Any explanation for this bezarre behavior and any suggestions?
I will very much appreciate your help.
Regards
Prasad.

in R12 I found 2 choice
1) when submitting requests (if available) you can set the output format by using the Options button (upon sompletion section):
layout --> format --> select format you need (RTF/HTML/EXCEL/PDF)
2) in the request form (view->request) selecr the report you want to reprint in the Tools menu select print/republish, in the html page that pop up select output format you want, number of copies =1 submit

Performance issue of Forms & Report running in Web environment

Hi,
We have been using Oracle web forms and reports but experience slow and unstable of application when run in web as java applet.
Besides, after using quite intensively during the day or idle for some time in the day, forms is very likely to go halt, which is the biggest problem when we need to serve a lot of customers in queue. When this thing happens, the entire browser needs to be restarted. We can't afford to always do that.
Is anybody out there face the same problem with Oracle Web Forms or not? If yes, can someone provide some guidance and advice on this.
Really appreciate your help in advance.
Please advise.
Thanks.

In the server registry entry or env variable
FORMS60_TIMEOUT
-- Length of time (in minutes) after which the server process shuts
down if there is no communication with the Java Client
(check out the online help of forms builder).
there are some notes about this parameter on http://metalink.oracle.com

Oracle Reports : Run time error when there is a call to DBMS_LOB package

I am facing a strange issue, please do share if you have some inputs. When I try running the compiled RDF report(Generating XML to be specific), Oracle Reports Builder crashes when I make use of the following formula function. Strangely, this works fine in the backend. Moreover I tried debugging and by trial and error method found out that, when there is a call to the DMBS_LOB package it errors (works fine when this is commented). Please do let me know whats the root cause of this issue. Thanks in advance
function CF_ClientSignatureFormula return VARCHAR2 is
file_name BFILE;
dir_name VARCHAR2(100);
dest_file_name VARCHAR2(100);

And what version of Reports are you using?
BFILES are accessible from the database, not the client (Reports). So, put your code in the database.

List of Oracle Reports run through Oracle Portal.

Hi,
It's possible that I am posting my message to a wrong Forum. If that's so, please let me know (and the correct forum too).
I have several Oracle Reports that are run through Oracle Portal (when user clicks a link for a report). I want to get a list of all such Oracle Reports in one go as I need to modify all of them. At the moment, to get the actual report name that I need to modify I am following the steps below.
When I am at 'Oracle Reports Security' page (in the Portal) where there is a section 'Reports Definition File Access',
1. I click list icon without entering any value in the box. It shows me a list of all report definitions.
2. After selecting a report definition, and clicking Edit, it shows me 'Manage Component' page. There are several links available. One of them is 'Edit'.
3. I click 'Edit' and it shows me the actual 'Oracle Reports File Name'. This is the file I need to work on.
But instead of following the above steps for each of the several reports I need to modify, is there any way, say by running a SQL query, to find out the actual Oracle Reports file names?
The 'Manage Component' page shows 'Run Link' and links for 'PL/SQL source'. I tried to search for the schema name and package name in the database (by connecting as SYS user). However, I found neither the Schema not the Package.
Hope my question is clear. In brief, I want to get a list of Oracle Reports file names that are run through Oracle Portal.
Any questions, please let me know.
Thanks and regards,
Manoj.

Jim,
Did you ever try to add Reports portlet as an item, so that user can click on each item to customize/schedule the report? You can have 50 of them, if that is what you really need.
Any reason why you want to create custom user interface, instead of using this vehicle that Portal provided by default?
You mentioned "The report Portlet ... does not allow customization." Actually, it does. You can do it by clicking on the Customize link of the Reports portlet.
Hope this helps,
-Jeff

Oracle Reports running very slow

The same Oracle reports, which used to take 15 seconds to complete, now takes about 4 minutes to complete. Any ideas? Thank you.

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by JS:
Thank you for your reply. Could you be more specific about network problem? We've changed our web application server and reports server settings recently. What could cause network problems? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Well, I would suggest that you got to be very clear with the query. Most of the report peformace is based on the query.
1. Make sure that query is fine and note down the time it takes.
2. If first step is clear and if you are happy with the output that is process time, then you can think about tuning the report.
( You may want skip this step)
3. If that does not work you can investigate
what kind of array it uses and network speed and other thinks. I am not really familior with these set up.
Good luck with it..

Connectivity of Websphere with Oracle reports running on Oracle 9i AS

How can we connect to Oracle Reports services and in turn generate reports; by accessing it from an application running in websphere, which is running on different machine in the same network. Our environment is such that we are forced to use these two application servers.

we're currently looking at building the reports j2ee thin client for ibm websphere - however do not have a scheduled date for this. you can see if the j2ee thin client meets your requirements by looking at the doc for it for the bea client:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/examples/Tools/thinclient/bea/Readme.html
is something like this for websphere what you are looking for?

Size of table of report run in Web Analyzer

Hello,
When I open a query in web (just by default link in a role, by clicking in "run in web" from query designer etc.) it opens in a table, which is very small. The table cover less than 25% of my screen, the rest is blank. It presents only a few columns and several rows, to see the rest we need to jump page by page using navigation bar. Do we have a possibility to change this setting somehow in default web template?
Thanks in advance,

Oracle report running total Resseting balance

Dear All,
I am developing report on Oracle R12 fixed Assets, I have to calculate the running total for each asset.
In brief
Asset 1
cost Deprciation Adjusted Cost
50 - 2 48
48 -5 45
45 - 4 41
I achieved that by using
if :p_val is null then
:result := nvl(:cost,0)-nvl(:depriciation,0);
:P_val :='5';
return :result;
else
:result := nvl(:result,0)-nvl(:depriciation,0) ;
return :result;
end if;
working fine
But problem is when the next asset start on same report
Asset 2
cost Deprciation Adjusted Cost
100 5 36
it substracts the last total (running total of previous asset with depriciation which was 41 in this example).
Oracle Champs pl advice me how to solve this.
I really dont got any idea how to solve this.
thanks

Dear,
Thanks for your reply , in your reply what you said I tried this but in pl/sql I am not actually achieving the result. The balance is not resetting at next group if you give one accurate line it would be really helpfull.
thanks

How to invoke Debug from Oracle Menu running on WEB?

ENVIRONMENT:
Oracle Forms 10g resides on Linux server.
Forms are called from the Oracle Menu.
Runs on company-wide WEB intra-net using Internet Explorer version 6.
User workstations are PC running Windows XP version 5.1.
PROJECT:
Create Oracle Menu option named: DEBUG.
After clicking on DEBUG, control returns to the Menu.
Any Form subsequently selected from the Menu will run in debug mode.
So every trigger firing in the Form will cause a message displayed on screen.
This will continue to happen whenever a Form is selected.
This continues until DEBUG is selected again...to toggle off.
QUESTION:
Is this possible?
If yes, how to do?

Possible: maybe.
How to do: this bean lets you get the values of the forms applet parameters and also set them. Perhaps debug_messages is settable in this way.
I've never found the debug_messages option to be very useful - it's usually fairly easy to work out which triggers are running and if there's an error then forms tells you which trigger it ocurred in. If the above (or anything else) doesn't work then you could use something like the package I posted Re: Zdebug -- Download a Forms debugging message tool, but it would mean having to code your own debug messages into the forms. Adding a new procedure to turn debugging on or off, or even to use a message level like forms has, would be quite simple.
eg,
-- new package variable:
debug_on BOOLEAN := TRUE;
PROCEDURE toggle_debug IS
BEGIN
debug_on := NOT debug_on;
END;
-- write_log becomes:
PROCEDURE write_log(
p_text IN VARCHAR2,
p_indent PLS_INTEGER DEFAULT 0) IS
BEGIN
IF debug_on THEN
write_log_internal(p_text, p_indent, 'N');
END IF;
END write_log;
etc
