Oracle Reports with XML output showing data as asterik character

Hello,
I'm trying to create an Oracle report with xml output. Here is the issue I'm having some of the columns in my report are of datatype number. When I run the report and generate xml file the values for those columns(datatype number) are showing as (*) character, other columns are showing fine. But when I run the report as text output then data is fine. I don't understand why this is happening.
The property of column is Column Type - Database Scalar, Datatype - Number , width 0,-127.
Does the width has to do anything with this?
I'm using Report Builder 6.0.8.11.3, DB version 10g.
Can anyone please help me with the issue I'm having.
Thanks

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.

Reports with XML output complete in error

Hi,
We have migrated Oracle eBiz from HP UX Itanium platform to Linux x86. Since then reports with XML output are completing with following error.
stat_low = 6
stat_high = 0

Please advise solution if anybody knows.

Pl post EBS version. Does this occur for all concurrent programs ? Or only seeded ones ? Or only custom ones ? Do you utilize the IX library ?

Embedding Fonts in Oracle Reports with PDF output

I've read in the data sheet for Oracle reports that you can embed font in the PDF output, but I cannot seem to find any documentation on how this is done. Current we have PDF reports being generated using reports server on Compaq (Alpha based) server running TRUE64 UNIX. The reports server uses the fonts install on the Compaq to figure out the layout (we use auto-sized fields). When the PDF is displayed on a Windows client the fonts are substituted and the labels and fields overlap. I want to embed the UNIX fonts into the PDF so that the output is reproduced as it was generated.

You need to export as PDF (Interactive) and you also need to view the PDF in Reader or Acrobat 9 or later.

XSL and FSG report with XML output

I have 5 FSG Reports combined into one reportset. all these reports output type as XML. Once the reportset is submitted and all the FSG reports are completed , i want to call a XSL program which will combine all the 5 FSG XML outputs. Please advice me how to use the xsl program to combine all the FSG XML Outputs.

Phew thats gonna be some XSL bearing in mind how complex the FSG XML is. How much data are we talking about here ? There might be a simpler solution as long as there is not a huge amount of data.

When running an xml publisher report the xml output leads to 9 mb and the excel output file leads to 20 mb.But the output records is originally 4000 records. When copy to new excel it is showing 3.5 mb only. Does anyone knows the answer for this issue?

When running an xml publisher report the xml output leads to 9 mb and the excel output file leads to 20 mb. The records contained in excel file is 4000 records. When taking the excel records and copy to new excel file the excel file size is 3.5 mb only.Why does the oracle software generates 20mb file?
Does any one knows the answer please advice?

Hello,
This issue is because the Excel output from BI Publisher is MHTML (XML Publisher generates XHTML) not binary .xls.
MHTML and XHTML are more verbose formats than binary .xls.
It will be large because the current Excel output is just an HTML and not compressed like PDF. Please use the workaround (save it as .xls file). This is a known limitation of RTF layout templates.
BI Publisher Enterprise has a new feature True Excel Templates. The layouts generate binary Excel output.
Excel Output File Size Generated By BI Publisher is Very Large (Doc ID 760437.1)

Oracle Reports in PDF output

Hi everyone ,
We are using Oracle 11g.
I have a custom Oracle report in PDF output. In some cases the value is changed. For example, when i run a query in toad i get a value 0.13, then I run my report, check the XML output - the value is still 0.13....but when I check the report output that is in the PDF format, the value is changed to 0.14. Do you have any ideas why it happens? Do I need a special coad in the rtf tag?
Thank you

What command did you type in to run your report in Unix? Did you give the full path of your rdf file. I guess that the system may not be find your rdf file correctly.

Anybody currently running Oracle Reports in unix platform and the output is generated in pdf format & display in browser?
Can you please advise on what are all the environment variables that I have to set in order to get the report runs?
Besides, what are the specific printer setting that I have to set? as well as priviledge on directory if necessary.
My reports are created in PC with RDF format. When run in unix, can the RDF still be used or it has been to recompile? If recompile, how is this done?
I always get the following error but do not what is the cause:

Failed to Load database information - Crystal report with XML as datasource

Hello Friends:
I am getting the attached error when i try to load the Crystal Report with XML as data source.
I have designed the crystal report with the sample XML provided with XSD schema (PFA I have attached the XML and XSD). It is working as expected on design time. But it is failing when I load it from C# code.
Note: I have referred the following DLLs of version 13.0.2000.0 in my sample application.
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Design.dll
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll
Please let me know what should be done in order to resolve this.
Thank you!

All I know is that you are using 'SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET". No idea what service pack or what version of .NET...
So. make sure you are on SP 9:
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
Search for KBA 1525432 (search box is in top right corner) and follow the instructions there.
Remove your reference to CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Design.dll
Add the following references:
CrystalDecisions.Shared
CrystalDecisions.ReportSource
CrystalDecisions.Web (if web app)
CrystalDecisions.Windows (if win app)
I'd also recommend commenting out the export code for now; one step at a time. Get it to work in the viewer, then move on... No Big Bangs

Hi al !
i have done a example about print Barcode on Oracle Report
with help link :
[http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/html/B10602_01/orbr_barcode.htm|http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/html/B10602_01/orbr_barcode.htm]
However
I want to hide number under Barcode images or Format number !
Ex:
|||||||||||||| --> images barcode
1234567 --> number barcode
i want : hide : "123456" or format it : "123.456"

The Image is generated by the java code in oraclebarcode.jar
It is possible to "hide" a part of the image by puting an object ("rectangle" for example ) over the part of the image you want to hide.

hi,,,
it seems OS package version conflict
Please check glibc and openmotif version (its responsible for reports)
and
Set the environment variable MALLOC_CHECK_=0 and bounce the Concurrent Managers
MALLOC_CHECK_ can be changed in two places :-
1. Add this to the $APPL_TOP/custom<TWO_TASK>_<HOSTNAME>.env
MALLOC_CHECK_=0
Then restart the concurrent managers and retest
2. Change it in the adovars.env file
Again bounce the concurrent managers and retest
