Problem calling a report (9i) from forms (9i)

I keep getting the errors when I try to run a report from a form:
REP-0110: Unable to Open File '~aads' (there is always garbage in this field)
REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document
In my form I have:
DECLARE
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('MYREP');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
END;
I have the report MYREP created under the Report Node in the Object Navigator as follows:
Name: MYREP
Filename: f:\rep_version44.rdf
Execution Mode: Runtime
Communication Mode: Synchronous
Report Destination Type: Screen
Everything else is blank. I have no idea what to put in for Report Server name or if I need one at all.
Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Hi,
is Filename: f:\rep_version44.rdf a n etwork drive ? If yes then this is the problem if not having assigned the HTTP process a network username with teh required privileges.
Btw.: Your should sue the Reports Server to run Reports as explained in the Whitepaper on otn.oracle.com/products/forms

Problem calling XML Report Publisher from Oracle Reports

Hi,
I'm facing a problem in calling XML Report Publisher from Oracle Reports.
Basically, I'm trying to customise Dunning Letter program. The program which is submitted calls another program. I have customised the second program and added a call to a stored procedure which in turn calls XML Report Publisher.I have created a template and attached it to the second program as well.
The procedure code is as follows.
v_request_id := FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST(application => 'AR'
,program => 'ARDLP_NON_SRS'
,description => 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate'
,sub_request => FALSE
l_status := fnd_concurrent.WAIT_FOR_REQUEST
( REQUEST_ID => v_request_id,
INTERVAL => 15,
MAX_WAIT => 180,
PHASE => l_phase,
STATUS => l_status_code,
DEV_PHASE => l_dev_phase,
DEV_STATUS => l_dev_status,
MESSAGE => l_message );
v_xml_req_id := FND_REQUEST.submit_request(application => 'XDO',
program => 'XDOREPPB',
          argument1 => v_request_id,
argument2 => 'FLS DE AR Dunning Letter Print - German',
argument3 => 603, -- changed 665 -- was 551,
argument4     => NULL,
argument5 => 'N',
argument6     => 'RTF',
          argument7     => 'PDF');
Now, there are two problems I'm facing...
1. when the second program('Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate') gets called it executes this procedure ... logically the 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate' should get called twice ... second time from the procedure. Its getting called multiple times .. as many as 15 - 20 times.
2. The Xml Report Publisher program ultimately gets called but its erroring out with the following error:
java.sql.SQLException: No corresponding LOB data found :SELECT L.FILE_DATA FILE_DATA, DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(L.FILE_DATA) FILE_LENGTH, L.LANGUAGE LANGUAGE, L.TERRITORY TERRITORY, B.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE DEFAULT_LANGUAGE, B.DEFAULT_TERRITORY DEFAULT_TERRITORY,B.TEMPLATE_TYPE_CODE TEMPLATE_TYPE_CODE, B.USE_ALIAS_TABLE USE_ALIAS_TABLE, B.START_DATE START_DATE, B.END_DATE END_DATE, B.TEMPLATE_STATUS TEMPLATE_STATUS, B.USE_ALIAS_TABLE USE_ALIAS_TABLE, B.DS_APP_SHORT_NAME DS_APP_SHORT_NAME, B.DATA_SOURCE_CODE DATA_SOURCE_CODE, L.LOB_TYPE LOB_TYPE FROM XDO_LOBS L, XDO_TEMPLATES_B B WHERE (L.LOB_TYPE = 'TEMPLATE' OR L.LOB_TYPE = 'MLS_TEMPLATE') AND L.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME= :1 AND L.LOB_CODE = :2 AND L.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME = B.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME AND L.LOB_CODE = B.TEMPLATE_CODE AND ( (L.LANGUAGE = :3 AND L.TERRITORY = :4 ) OR (L.LANGUAGE = :5 AND L.TERRITORY = :6) OR (L.LANGUAGE= B.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE AND L.TERRITORY= B.DEFAULT_TERRITORY ) )
I have checked from database that the XDO_LOBS/ XDO_TEMPLATES_B table has corresponding registration data.
I don't know what's creating the problem.
If anyone has customised the Dunning Letter program before or having any idea about this problem, please help me out ..
Thanks

Accessing clustered report servers from Forms

Hi
The "Oracle Fusion Middleware Publishing Reports to the Web with Oracle Reports Services 11g R2 (11.1.2)" manual in Section 2.5 talks about setting up a High Availability environment for Reports.
It discusses how to set the cluster configuration and how to create a reports job repository in the database. It says that you need to have a unique name for each report server, finally it says that you should use Oracle Web Cache to load balance for the reports cluster.
If you are calling the report server from Forms with a run_report_object then you don't go via the web cache, so I am confused how you send your report request to the reports cluster in a load balanced fashion.
Has anyone done this or can explain how this works for Forms?
TIA
Tony

I know that this is an old thread, but I've taken the liberty to bump it up, as I have the same question.
The Reports documentation describes quite succinctly how to configure the report servers to be clustered - no problem there.
The issue is that when you run a report from forms using run_report_object, you are required to specify a report server name. The Reports docs specify that all of the server names must be unique, so this seems to indicate that you cannot use a clustered report server environment from Forms, or am I missing something somewhere? Oh, wait - an insight coming here - Can you (I'll test this, but it would be good to know) specify a cluster name instead of an actual report server name? Google to the rescue:
Using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT: If the call specifies a Reports Server cluster name instead of a Reports Server name, the reports_servermap environment variable must be set in the Oracle Forms Services default.env file. If your Oracle Forms application uses multiple Reports Server cluster names, you can map each of those cluster names to a different Reports Server using reports_servermap in rwservlet.properties, as follows:
There's the answer. Sometimes writing the question down helps figure out the answer :)

John

Are we talking web or C/S ?
In C/S discoverer has a command line interface that you can use to pass parameters such as workbook name and call it with host from Forms.
On the Web you can call the workbook with URL and parameters by using web.show_document in forms.

Problems calling context-sensitive AIRHelp from Adobe Flex App

Hi everyone...
I´m having problems calling context-sesitive AIRHelp from Flex.
I can launch the help from flex using the following code (flex), but allways starts on the default topic.
private function invocarAirHelp(tema:String):void {
      var appID:String = "pc1";
      var pubID:String = "8C47FDE4638CAF7F210634E52A5F8318D893A57C.1";
      var mgr:ProductManager = new ProductManager("airappinstaller");
      mgr.launch("-launch " + appID + " " + pubID);
the launch method can recive parameters after the publisherID, but i dont know the parameters that i should give to the method to start the AIRHelp on an specific topic.
I tryed using the parameters as the call was on the command line, ex:
mgr.launch("-launch " + appID + " " + pubID + " -csh mapnumber 12");
but i can get any results... with those parameters the help application doesn´t even start
Anyone have an idea to make this works?
Thanks in advance, Sabin

Hi Sabin,
The only supported way to launch AIR applications from the browser is the air "browser API": http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=distributing_apps_3.html#1035834
The browser API uses ProductManager internally and exposes higher-level browser API so that we change the implementation if necessary someday. The browser API will stay the same, even if the interactions through ProductManager (or something else) change.
The browser API (air.swf) has other features that make it the preferred way to launch apps. For instance, it provides accurate information about which platforms support AIR, and can therefore manage install of new apps and of the runtime itself.
Also, if the application is not installed then Browser API will return Error to the flex application, but that does not happen in case of ProductManager.
That said, you can probably use "--" to separate arguments intended for airappinstaller from arguments that should be passed through to the app itself.
mgr.launch("-launch " + appID + " " + pubID + " -- -csh mapnumber 12");

Problem n Calling Report 6i from Forms 6i

i have a problem with calling any report ( Report 6i ).
the problem is when i call any report from the Form 6i sometime its hang ,and the message from the Windowx XP will shown when any application is not responding , and the Form hangs also and need End Task to close it.
there is no sequence of hanging , sometimes third calling of the report ,sometimes forth and sometimes from the first calling of any report.
is it that Report 6i not compatible with the windows XP or 2000 and need some file or is it the problem from my code..???
i used this code:
DECLARE
pl_id ParamList;
begin
pl_id := Get_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
IF NOT Id_Null(pl_id) THEN
Destroy_Parameter_List( pl_id );
END IF;
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
add_Parameter(pl_id,'Q',text_PARAMETER,' and PA_M_HUMAN_SRL = '||:PA_M_HUMAN_SRL||' and ee_t_exit_entry_no = '||:EE_T_EXIT_ENTRY_NO);
Add_Parameter(pl_id, 'PARAMFORM', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'NO');
Run_Product(REPORTS, 'C:\HRS\PROSYS\REP\r_exit_per_rp.rep', SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id, NULL);
...

Abdulla,
2 things
1) Make sure you are on a recent patch that as a minimum is path 13 for XP support (I think it was patch 13)
2. Try
Run_Product(REPORTS, 'C:\HRS\PROSYS\REP\r_exit_per_rp.rep', ASYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id, NULL);
to run it asynchronously to eventually see an error message displayed

:control.lst_clase returns a char, so i convert that char to a number, and that's the parameter passed from Forms.
