Parameter form format error

I have just deployed my first report to our 9iAS app server. I can successfully run the report in my browser if I pass ALL parameters in the URL. When I attempt to use paramForm=YES in my URL, the parameter form appears like it should, but when I selected values (LOV) on the parameter form and click "Submit Query", I get the following error.
REP-52007: Parameter form format error.

Can anyone tell me what is wrong? This report run fine, including the parameter selection, in the Report Builder. I simply saved the report out to a JSP and copied it to the report server.
Thanks,
Kevin

You may have hit a bug when passing parameter paramform as "PARAMFORM=yes" or "Paramform=yes", you will get the REP-52007 error. The fix will be available in Reports 9.0.2.1.
As a work around, please submit the request with all lower case "paramform=yes" and try again.
Hope this helps,

REP-52007: Parameter form format error.

You are trying to put an alphanumeric character in a numeric parameter field, or a wrong date format. Look at the format of the parameter field in the reports Builder and compare it to the parameters in the query.

REP-52007 Error and Web Parameter Form Format Problems

I am attemting to get Oracle 9i reports working. I created a super simple report just for test purposes. I am using the following URL to call it directly from the browser:
http://myserver.com:8008/reports/rwservlet?server=repapp&report=jtest_rep.rdf&userid=myuser/mypass@mydb&DESTYPE=cache&DESFORMAT=pdf&PARAMFORM=YES
When it generates the parameter form page, the formatting of the section that has the paramters is terrible. Looking at the HTML generated, it is creating a large <table> that places the elements outside of the viewing area. I do not know how why it is doing this or how to fix it.
If I actually do find the field and enter in the prameter and hit submit, I then get:
REP-52007: Parameter form format error.

If I set paramform=no and pass in the parmater in the url string, then it skips the paramter form and runs fine accepting the input.
Any idea what the solution is for these two errors?

After more searching, I found out that the problem for both is an Oracle Bug posted on mealink. It has to do with using capital letters for the oracle default parameters. Once you make it lower case, it works.
ex:
http://myserver.com:8008/reports/rwservlet?server=repapp&report=myreport.rdf&userid=myid/mypass@mydb&destype=cache&desformat=pdf&paramform=yes

Parameter Form - formatting problems

I am running reports from forms and the reports use a parameter form. The parameter form, however, has some nasty formatting issues and I cannot figure out how to fix them.
1. between the Submit Query and Reset button there is a part of a badly formed html tag (width=15>). How do I get rid of that?
2. the page title 'Report Parameters' is shown across two rows
3. the instructions 'Enter values for the parameters' and each of the labels for the fields are wrapping and appear misaligned with the actual fields.
4. (less important) Is it possible to move the buttons (submit Query and Reset) to the bottom of the page instead of the top?
5. Is it possible to change the name of the 'Submit Query' button?
Thanks for your help!!! It is desperately needed!!
Jean.

Hi. I resolved question 1 and 5 -- changed the html string in BeforePForm.
PLEASE, any assistance with 2, 3, and 4 would be great!!

Parameter form causing error

I have a simple test report that has no parameters in it. When I register it in Portal 3.0, I select a number of parameters to display (including destype, desformat, etc).
The report runs successfully from the "customize" screen in portal.
When I subsequently add the report to a content area, the report will work fine if I don't turn on the "Display Parameters" check box. If I do turn on the "Display Parameters" option I get the following error:
Error: An unexpected error occurred: User-Defined Exception (WWC-43000)
An unexpected error occurred: ORA-04063: has errors
ORA-04063: package body "PORTAL30.WWV_RW_SB" has errors
ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called (WWC-43000)
Has anyone had a similar experience? Any thought about why this "program unit" can't be found?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for your response. I am unable to locate the patch that you're referring to. Do you know what area it can be found in MetaLink?
Thanks again for your help.

Andrew,
This is bug. It was fixed and is our latest patch (patch 4). Please contact Oracle Support Services (or use Metalink) to download patch 4 and this should fix the parameter problem.

Report 9i parameter form problem, is it a bug?

Hi all,
I am using Dev 9i IDS, rel. 9.0.2, running in windows 2000. I've been converting my forms and reports from previous versions to 9i, and I came across an issue with the report's parameter form.
First, I thought it could be a problem during the conversion , but to make sure I developed a new form and a new report straight in the 9i IDS suite, using Scott's DEPT table. The new form is simple having a button to call the new report which is based on the DEPT table and accepts an user's input for a dept. no.
The same problem occurs:
- in the form, if I set PARAMFORM=HTML then it could not open the report parameter form, hence the report could not run.
- if I set PARAMFORM=YES, then the report parameter form is displayed, then I can enter a value for the department number. BUT, when I clicked the Submit Query button the report failed, and I received the following error:
REP-52007: Parameter form format error.

I have no problem integrating others reports that don't have parameter form using run_report_object. And, I've checked and tried different ways of manipulating the parameter value using to_number in the report's where clause etc., it never worked.
I guess the only workaround is to create the parameter form in Forms builder. Is there other ways of doing it , or is it a bug of the 9i IDS suites that needs to be fixed?
- Thanks

Hi Frank,
There's a note published on Metalink, note 139546.1, showing a workaround to thi problem. but
- it is rather lengthy and confusing, may not be practical .
- it only applies to Forms and Reports 6i.
However, it shows that the problem comes from 2 items in the source code of the parameter form which is produced by the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT built-in:
1. <form method=post action=""> where action contains an empty string, it needs to have a valid entry, e.g.
<form method=post action="http://hostname:port/cgi/rwci60.exe?">
2. <input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value=""> where hidden value is also empty. It should contains all parameter values passed to the report parameter form, e.g.
<input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value="report%3test+destype%3Dcache+userid%Dscott.....">
And that is what I found, but I am reluctant to try it in 9i IDS, hoping Oracle has a better solution than that.
Tho.

Report with parameter form

I am trying to run the report from menu with the following code
declare
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status VARCHAR2(50);
BEGIN
repid := find_report_object('test');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid, REPORT_FILENAME, :global.user_dir||'test.REP');
if id_null(repid) then
     pause;
     message('repid is null');
     else
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'pdf');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'repsrv');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=yes');
end if;
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
LOOP
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
END LOOP;
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repsrv','_blank');
ELSE
message('Error when running report');
END IF;
END;
The report parameter form displays
and when i enter the values
gives me the error

Dear All,
i have a problem regarding showing parameter form that made by report developer when i call the report from my form
first i use winXP sp3, database 10g ,developer suite 10g
the problem is as follow:
the report run perfectly from report builder and the parameter form appears but when i call the report from the form the report appears without parameter form screen and this make report empty
notice1 : i call any other report it is appears successfully
in a short way (how can i make report parameter form appears when i call it from a form )
i call the report through the following procedure
procedure open_my_report (p_repname varchare2) is
report id report object;
reportserverjob varchar2(100);
report_status varchar2(20);
begin
report_id := find_report_object('myreport');
set_report_object_property(report_id,REPORT_FILENAME,'c:\developersuitehome_1\reports\'||p_repname||'.rep');
set_report_object_property(report_id,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
set_report_object_property(report_id,REPORT_COMM_MODE,ASYNCHRONOUS);
set_report_object_property(report_id,REPORT_DESTYPE,FILE);
set_report_object_property(report_id,REPORT_DESNAME,'c:\reports\'||p_repname||'.pdf');
set_report_object_property(report_id,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'pdf');
set_report_object_property(report_id,REPORT_SERVER,'rep_raysoft');
reportserverjob := run_report_object(report_id);
if rep_status = 'FINISHED' then
copy_report_object_output (reportserverjob,'c/'||prepname||'.pdf');
host('c/'||prepname||'.pdf',no_screen);
message('report '||p_repname||' completed successfully');
else
message('error when running '||p_repname||' report .');
end if;
end;
notice2: i try to activate the parameter form by adding this line in the procedure
set_report_object_property(report_id,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=yes');
but it desn't make any differance
so i will be so apreciated if anyone can help me
thanks

Dear All,
thanks for your attention
really i modify my code to be appear as follow
PROCEDURE OPEN_MY_REPORT (p_repname Varchar2) IS

BEGIN
/* Get a handle to the Report Object itself. */
v_report_id:= FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('MYREPORT');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_FILENAME,'C:\DevSuiteHome_1\reports\'||p_repname||'.rep');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);

if p_repname = 'REPCENTERSPREADING' then
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=yes');
else
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no');
end if ;
vc_ReportServerJob := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(v_report_id);
message(vc_ReportServerJob);
message(vc_ReportServerJob);
vjob_id := substr(vc_ReportServerJob,length(v_reportservername)+2,length(vc_ReportServerJob));
message(vjob_id);
message(vjob_id);
/* If finished, check the report status . */
vc_rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(vc_ReportServerJob);
IF vc_rep_status='FINISHED' THEN
/* Call the Reports output to be displayed in a separate browser
window. The URL for relative addressing is valid only when the Reports
Server resides on the same host as the Forms Server. For accessing a
remote Reports, you must use the prefix http://hostname:port/ */
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'|| vjob_id||'?server=rep_raysoft','_blank');
ELSE
message ('Report failed with error message '||vc_rep_status);
END IF;
END;
and it helps me to display the parameter form but i face another problem that is when i enter values for my parameter it gives me the following error
REP-52007: Parameter form format error.
note: i test the report directly from report builder and it work successfully without any problem
so can anyone help me please

Parameter form which generates a report in delimited format

Hello , I have a parameter form which calls a report in delimited format.
In the RUN_REPORT* (Function Body) in program units , I have made the following modifications :
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'DELIMITED');
I get a report in txt format . The problem is that when I convert my txt file to excel , I get the label of each row which repeats the number of records found ! I should have the label appearing once followed by the data . What can I do to make that possible please ?
or if I have a simple query e.g SELECT * FROM BANKS to generate in txt format . Can I write some code in PL/SQL to write the results of such a query in txt format?
Thanks
Edited by: twinklin_girl on Aug 28, 2009 3:53 AM

I think I got the solution !
I simply need to add the following in my run_report procedure :
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_report_id,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'*DelimitedData*');
I get the actual title of each field(as it is in the database) displayed once followed by all records . It's not a perfect solution but I think it will do for now.

Rep-52005 error when running a report from form with parameter form

Your code seems to be implementing metalink note 139546.1 - Using Reports parameter forms with RUN_REPORT_OBJECT on the web.
For what I can see, the P_ACTION parameter should end in ?...
i.e.
P_ACTION=http://<hostname.domain:port>/reports/rwservlet?'
set_report_object_property (
repid,
report_other,
'paramform=yes P_USER_CONNECT='
|| vc_connect
|| ' P_SERVERNAME='
|| v_reportserv
|| ' P_ACTION='
|| v_report_url
|| '/reports/rwservlet?'
);If this does not fix your problem, then to troubleshoot further you would have to post the code in your Before Parameter Form trigger of your report.
Hope this helps,
UPDATE:
If the above does not fix your problem, my guess is that report name is not being generated in the hidden runtime values build by the code in the Before Parameter Form trigger.
i.e.
http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet?report=&destype=cache&desformat=PDF
The above code will throw error REP-52005: The specified key report does not exist in key map file.

Parameter Form not calling the Main report - Gives REP-0110, REP-1070, REP-0110 error

I am using run_report_object to call a report in which the user has to input some paramters. I have followed the instructions as in the Oracle White paper document on Forms/Reports integration.
The paramter report does come up but when I hit the submit button, I get an error
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'rclug005'.
REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'rclug005
I've checked the privileges and everything's fine on that front. Also, I can get to open the report with the web.show document built-in with paramform setting = No.
I am guessing something's wrong with the html constructed in the parameter form which is,
<form method=post action="http://myserver/dev60cgi/RWCGI60.EXE?">
<input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value="server=myserver &report=rclug005&destype=Cache&desformat=html&userid=uid/pwd@test">
In the Report Before Form trigger, I've copied the foll. html code from the Oracle White paper,
vc_parameter_form :=
'<html><body bgclor="ffffff"><form method=post action="'||:p_action||'">'||
'<input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden
value= "'||vc_hidden_runtime_values||'">'||'<center><p>
<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0><tr><td>
<input type=submit></td><td> width=15
<td><input type=reset></td></tr></table><p><hr></p>';
I've set the :p_action parameter to a value of http://myserver/dev60cgi/RWCGI60.EXE?
Also, In the end of the report before form trigger I added this
srw.set_before_form_html(srw.text_escape, vc_parameter_form);
Any help/tips is appreciated & Thanks.

Thanks Danny,
I am building the variable exactly as in the White paper in the "before form" trigger using exactly the same values give there.
vc_hidden_runtime_values := 'server='||:p_servername||'&report='||vc_report_name||'.rep&destype='||:destype||'&desformat='||:desformat||'&userid='||:p_userinfo;
My report has some extra parameters too it expects. So do I have to include the names of those parameters too in the string above?
For example, in my report a user parameter is named 'print_date', which I do see and populate with value in the parameter form, then do I have to build that in the vc_hidden_runtime_values string above.
I am using Report 6.0.8.11.3 on 9iAS.

How to Change the display format of Parameter form in HTML

I have created a parameter form to allow user to choose the parameter values before printing the report. The parameter which will display in the web-browser has its own predefined format. How am i going to change this format? eg. changing the Background color, table background color, put in some pictures, set the alignment of the text and fields....
Now I am able to change the header and footer. I can put in the company logo in the header by changing the report escape - Before form value and the footer in the report escape - after form value. How about the body which all the boilet text and fields will be display here? I need to change the alignment, the table background color and the text style and format also... where should i change this?
Thanks

Reports only provides limited formatting for the parameter form. In your case, you seem to need to take over greater control of the parameter form and you're halfway there.
You've noted that you can control the header & footer values, what you need to do is extend those escapes to render the complete parameter form and remove everything from the actual reports parameter form. ie: Remove the labels/parameter form fields and render these directly in the HTML in the before parameter HTML escape. This allows you to insert any HTML you want - you probably want to start with the Reports generated HTML and move it into Frontpage to edit to your required format.
What you are doing in this case is still using Reports url/submit mechanism and parameter form validation but bypassing Reports rendering of the parameter form.

Report 10g parameter form Error

Hi,
While calling a report I am getting the following error.
REP-546: Warning: The value of restricted LOV parameter TOPROFIT is not among the selectable values.
When I call the same report through another PC it displays parameter form.
I am using Report Builder 10g.
Kindly help in resolving the issue.

Hi,
I need more details.
1- Are you running that report from 2 different machines using Reports Builder? or Reports Server?
2- If running with Reports Builder, is it the same report? or a different version of the report?
Any other details that you think can clarify issue further.
Thanks, Roberto

Reports 10g R2 error using parameter form

I am trying to run some reports that are being called from a form (using REPORT_OBJECT). If I set PARAMFORM=YES, I get a HTML parameter form that look correct. When I click the Submit button, I get a 'HTTP 500 server error'
Are parameter forms supposed to be working in 10g?

Hello,
Yes and it is documented in the PDF :
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/10g/frmrepparamform.pdf
Have you checked the HTML source of the parameter form ?
What is the value of the attribute ACTION in the element FORM ?
Regards
