RickyHi Ricky and welcome to the forum
Could you please elaborate more? What do you exactly want? You can run any sql at SQL*Plus and take the output as report
You can use Oracle Reports to create a report or you can use Crystall Reports as third part utility

Oracle(tm) Client and Networking Components were not found..

I installed Oracle 9i Client tools on my machine (Win2000 Server), and successfully installed the Oracle ODBC Driver, however, upon using "Oracle in OraHome92" option in my Administrative Tools System DSN I receive the following error upon attempt to connect to the database with my ASP scripts:
"The Oracle(tm) client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and part of Oracle Version 7.3.."
I also receive the following error on my page:

I have tried every trick I know and at this point am out of options. If anyone has a suggestion I'd really appreciate it.

Interfacing of oracle report builder and java

hi all,
I have build a report using Oracle Report Builder 10g.Now i want to make use of this report in displaying the data in IE using core java.
This is the first time i am using the Oracle Report Builder .
Can anyone tell me how to proceed in right direction?Do i need to have some specific Jar,Environment to accomplish this task?
Thanks in advance

I'm not sure what version of the product you're using, but since you're just installing it may well be the base version (6.0.8.8.3).
Similar issues were addressed in a patch release (6.0.8.12), which was related to issues with some types of keyboard. You may want to upgrade to the latest patch release and retry.

Thank You

Have a look at the reports help for the purpose header and trailer sections. Here is an exert:
"Report sectioning enables you to define multiple layouts in the same report, each with a different target audience, output format, page layout, page size, or orientation. You can define up to three report sections, each with a body area and a margin area: the names of the sections are Header, Main, and Trailer. By default, a report is defined in the Main section. In the other sections, you can define different layouts, rather than creating multiple separate reports. If you wish, you can use the margin and body of the Header and Trailer sections to create a Header and Trailer page for your reports."

Installed Oracle reports 6i and 9.04 form home

I had Oracle Forms 4.5. & Report 3.1. in my old system (windows NT).
My goal is to upgrade Oracle Forms & Reports onto 10g DS.
I used windows XP for this purpose.
I have successfully ungraded Oracle Forms to 10g.
First I installed Forms 6i. (applied latest patches)
I opened all forms from the 4.5 into 6i and make its work.
I have installed Oracle Forms 10g in another/Separate Oracle Home & applied
latest patches.They have upgraded.
Now I need to do same process for Oracle Report.
So I start install Oracle Reports 6i.
My goal is to install Oracle Reports in separate Oracle Home.
But It does not ask any directory.
And its starts installing under Oracle Forms (9.0.4) Oracle Home.
I was so late to stop installation.
Now I am not able to use Oracle Forms 10g.

hello,
i am afraid you destroyed your installation, or at least messed it up.
i would suggest you install 6i first, and then install 10g (9.0.4) that way you can install 10g in a separate home. not sure if the 6i installer was multi-home capable.
thanks,
ph.

Oracle reports builder and Win7 aero theme

Hi,
I did sucessfully instaled Oracle reports builder 10gR2 (e.g. Oracle Developer Suite 10gR2 and patch 10.1.2.3) on Win7 x64 Enterprize. There was a few workarounds, but it is now ok.
Everything works just fine now, but that blink and baloon message that came on change of color sheme to Windows classic is annoying! Every time I run the Report Builder, windows is forced to change the Aero scheme ti Classic. OK, I figgured out, that if I do not use Aero, this is not an issue anymore. For me it's ok, but other developers in our company will not be glad :)
The same problem persist at Oracle SQL developer, but there is a solution for it with little change in "sqldeveloper.conf" file "AddVMOption -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true" .
Is there any similar setting for Report builder too?
I would be werry appreciated.
Thanks.

Hello,
Have you used 64-bit binaries?
Here are the steps that you need to make sure you have accomplished themL
1- JDK 64 bits to be used
2- wls1036_generic.jar (java -jar wls1036_generic.jar) or wls1035_generic.jar . It is mandatory to use java from a 64 bits distribution. Using java 32 bits will cause problems.
3- ofm_frmrpts_win_11.1.2.0.0_64_disk1_1of1.zip
An workaround is offered in the following thread:
Oracle Reports 11g installation problem

Text output from Oracle Reports 6 and Apps

I am trying to write a couple of reports with Oracle Reports 6i that will be used as a comma delimited text file for import into other applications. I have the reports written and registered with Oracle Apps. However, I am having two problems that I can not figure out. (1) When the report is
exectuted and saved as a text file, it will not import into other programs such as Access, giving an error that one line contains too many characters. If I open the text file, there is a blank line (actually a new line with no data) at the very end. When I delete this new line so the cursor is
positioned after the last character of text and save the file - it will import fine. How do I avoid this problem? (2) One report has a lot of columns, and the data always comes out wrapped, even though it isn't
wrapped in the report writer that I can tell. The "wrapping" option on the text editor is turned off, so it looks like a new line is actually being created. Any ideas would be appreciated!

Oracle Reports Server and X11

Does oracle reports server need X11 running? We dont run X on our
prod servers. We can't really figure out why it needs it which the developers
claims they need X running
Are there any alternatives? We really don't want to start an X server here

hello,
the role is the same on all plattforms. the reports server takes requests for running reports, spawns an engine that executes the request. in addition to that, the server also provides scheduling services and security features for the reports environment.

Oracle reports 6i and the web

I have installed the d2k 6.i pack on my NT desktop and am pointing to a 8.1.5 database on another machine. All I have is the Webdb listener up and running. No other Webserver as I was told this was all I needed to run reports on my desktop on the Web.
The report runs fine on my desktop but when I try to run this report on the Web I get: Page not found
This is the url:
http://granite.isearch.com/dev60cgi/rwcgi60.exe?server=Rep60_GRANITE&report=C:\orant\bin\ats0107.rdf&userid=pr_hollydev/orahollydev@r81&destype=cache&desformat=HTML
My report server is up. My webdb listener is up. I do not have a web server installed besides what came with D2k.
I did copy the rwcgi60.exe to the OWS/4.0/bin directory

I tried the browser test using this and got page not found.

1. Yes you need a web server
2. the env. vars:
REPORT60_VIRTUAL_MAP,
REPORTS60_PHYSICAL_MAP, and
REPORT60_SHARED_CACHE
are no longer needed.
3. The 'community' part of the Reports sever entry in your tnsnames.ora isn't required.

Oracle Reports 6i and the Dynamic SQL

I use Oracle 8.1.7 and Oracle Reports 6i Builder;
My problem is that I am trying to obtain dataset for the report via stored procedure (using ref cursor). As far as I understand I must specify strongly typed refcursor in my package (specify record type based of which the ref cursor will be created, not just ref cursor without any return specification). But when it comes to my stored procedure implementation, here I would like to use dynamically created SELECT statement and since it will be parsed and executed at runtime I forced to use only untyped ref cursor to return data from the stored procedure.
TYPE my_refcur IS REF CURSOR;
cv_tmp my_refcur;
v_SQL VARCHAR2(2000);
BEGIN
-- here I set v_SQL ....
OPEN cv_tmp
FOR v_SQL;
RETURN cv_tmp;
END;
But this way I somehow need to convert untyped ref cursor to strongly typed one. This is a problem I would like you to help me with.
Thanks in advise.
By the way, I am not familiar with Oracle Reports 9. Does it still require to return only strongly typed ref cursor from stored procedures?

Hello Alexey,
The reason Reports requires strongly typed ref cursors to be returned to it is that, with weak ref cursors the list of columns returned by the cursor cannot be determined at report design time. For a weak ref cursor, the data will be populated based on a query specified only at runtime. As a result, you will not be able to add any layout to your report, since the query group will be empty.
Please take a look at the reply in the post below on the same topic, for a method to retrieve data from a stored procedure returning a weakly typed ref cursor:
Re: Reports On Ref Cursor

Srivas.

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 Reports 9i and Java

Hi all,
I am new to Oracle 9i reports. I was just wondering if there is any good documentation/tutorial on using Oracle 9i Reports in a J2EE app? Basically, being able to integrate Oracle 9i Reports in a J2EE web application such that you can pass arguments to the underlying SQL query of the reports dynamically through your web app and then it could use Oracle 9i Reports to generate some reports.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Payam.

Hi:

Does Studio Creator support Oracle ADF Faces and other components?

Hi everyone
According to:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/htdocs/partners/addins/exchange/jsf/doc/faq.html
"Although ADF Faces is "vanilla" JSF we have not been able to run with Java Studio Creator Build 04.06.2. We are working with Sun to resolve the issues in Java Studio Creator."
Does anyone know if Oracle ADF faces now work with Studio Creator and if so which version.
In addition I am also looking for JSF visualization components. In addition to advanced 3-D graphs (send as PNG to client) I am also looking for components to visualize the structure of a website. These all need to work with Studio Creator.

Importing 3rd party libraries used to be complicated. The .complib stuff was added precisely to make it easy.
It does make packaging slightly harder for third party -vendors-, since there's one extra step, but this makes everything easier for (the much larger number of) users of the third party components, since the packaging format specifies a bunch of stuff that we used to have to ask of users when trying to add the jar and associated metadata into the IDE.
The complib stuff is documented, so if you're producing a 3rd party JSF library, or if you really want to use one that hasn't yet been packaged, you can do the steps yourself.
See http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/People/EdwinGoei -- the first couple of links describes the process. Yes, we're working with third party vendors to get this done for their component sets, and yes, there's talk with other IDE vendors to standardize all this.
