Problem in displaying PDF report

Environment : WEB
AS : Oracle 9i As
Dev : Oracle 9i Developer Suite
Db : Oracle 9i DB
when we call a report(pdf format) from form, It opens up the acrobat reader then,it gives the following error " There was an Error Processing a Page. There was a problem in Reading this document(135)"
What is the reason for this error? how can solve it?

our setting with destype=cache, desformat=pdf, paramform=NO.
report job status returns success. the call web.show_document() uses jobid to display the output. It launchs the pdf program, and then browser returns "PDF error 135" error.
the actual cache is created in ora_home\midtier\reports\cache\ as #######.pdf, when manually opening it, it returns "PDF error 135".
Usually when this issue occur, jobs queue are growing then shortly after, rweng will crash. Only way to recover is by restarting the server box.
any ideas? Thank you in advance!

Welcome to the Forums!
What version of Adobe Reader are you trying to install? I have 8.1.2 and it runs fine, although I don't usually use it, nor do I have it set as the default browser pdf viewer.
Not sure what the issues are with Adobe Reader, but is Preview (Apple's viewer application, which displays pdfs) inadequate for some reason?

Display Pdf report on Frame using iText library

Hi,
I am able to generate pdf reports using iText library. but i want to display these generated pdf into frame. can u please help for this.
this is web based application. Through servlet i am generating the pdf report using iText library. I am waiting for your reply ....

Does this PDF file absolutely need to be displayed within a JFrame? You say you are generating this document on the server side, so if this is a web application, what I might do is place the generated document on directory accessible through http, then on the client browser side open a pop-up browser window with a URL to the PDF document.
Most browsers have a PDF viewer plugin of some kind.
If this is a swing application then you can do the same thing but instead of redirecting the browser to the PDF file you can use iText to convert the PDF document to an RTF document and use an RTFEditorKit within a JEditorPane to display the same document in RTF format.

Problem with deleting PDF report in "Vew Log / Trace" Section

Hello everyone I just hired as a peoplesoft programmer :)
I have a question when I try to code a report generating program
I need to delete the PDF file (report) in "View Log/Trace"Section after the AE program executed.
(Actually I just want to hide it at "View Log/Trace" Section, so that user will not be able to see it).
The following program is my code
&xmlStr = &inXMLDoc.GenXmlString();
&strFilePath = %FilePath | "PAYSLIP_" | ZH_GPR068_AET.CAL_RUN_ID | "__" | ZH_GPR068_AET.PROCESS_INSTANCE | ".xml";
&FileCS = GetFile(%FilePath | "PAYSLIP_" | ZH_GPR068_AET.CAL_RUN_ID | "__" | ZH_GPR068_AET.PROCESS_INSTANCE | ".xml", "W", "UTF8", %FilePath_Absolute);
sRptDefn = "GPR0688_B";
&oRptDefn = create PSXP_RPTDEFNMANAGER:ReportDefn(&sRptDefn);
&oRptDefn.Get();
&oRptDefn.UseBurstValueAsOutputFileName = True;
&oRptDefn.SetRuntimeDataXMLFile(&strFilePath);
&ftp = GetURL(URL.ZH_GPR068_PAYSLIP);
&oRptDefn.ProcessReport("", &sLangCd, &AsOfDate, &sFileExt);
&oRptDefn.ZHPrintOutput(%FilePath);
&Return_Value = PutAttachment(GetURL(URL.ZH_GPR068_PAYSLIP), &sss | ".pdf", %FilePath | &sss | ".pdf");
&conFileLog.WriteLine("PutAttachment Return Value:" | &Return_Value);
If &Return_Value = 0 Then
Local Record &ZH_PSLP_EE;
&ZH_PSLP_EE = CreateRecord(Record.ZH_PSLP_EE_DATA);
&ZH_PSLP_EE.EMPLID.Value = ZH_GPR068_AET.EMPLID;
&ZH_PSLP_EE.CAL_RUN_ID.Value = ZH_GPR068_AET.CAL_RUN_ID;
&ZH_PSLP_EE.ATTACHSYSFILENAME.Value = &ATTACHSYSFILENAME;
&ZH_PSLP_EE.ATTACHUSERFILE.Value = &ATTACHUSERFILE;
&ZH_PSLP_EE.Insert();
End-If;
/*Delete(hide) the report file*/
Local JavaObject &javaFile;
&javaFile = CreateJavaObject("java.io.File", %FilePath);
&javaFile.delete();
&tmpfile1 = GetFile(%FilePath | &ATTACHSYSFILENAME, "W", "UTF8", %FilePath_Absolute);
&tmpfile1.Delete();*
/*Delete(hide) the report file*/
After the program executed, the pdf report still exist and not being removed in "View Log/Trace" Section
&ATTACHSYSFILENAME already contain the PDF extension.
I am hoping someone can help me to find out what's wrong with my program results in cannot delete the PDF file in the "Vew Log / Trace" Section
Thank you so much

Maybe there's something I don't get very well, but that's quite strange to make a user able to run a process without making him able to see the report, or at least the log.
Anyway, I think it should be better to solve it through the config rather than changing code.
Have a look to the red-paper below, page 57 :
http://download.oracle.com/peopletools/documents/Securing_PSFT_App_Environment_May2010%20v4.pdf
I may be wrong, but I'd tend to have a look first on the process definition, "Process Security", or on permission list (process monitor)...

Have a problem with display PDF Files!!!!

When I open a PDF file that takes up to 20 minutes and leaves taken in open AcroRd32.exe process which can not close until you open the requested file, anyone know why this happens?
** system Windows XP Pro, Service Pack3, PentiumD 3Ghz, 2GB Ram, 40Gb Disk Free, Acrobat Reader 9.1.0.

I'm presumably having a similar problem with pdf's in ibook. It seemed to work fine until about two updates ago. We're using ipad II's with ibook (latest version as of today) for our board of director's reports. These are sometimes several hundred pages and password protected pdf's. Now the more whiney members of the board are *******' at me, so I need to find a solution relatively quickly. Is there a way to back off the updates?
What it does.
When a PDF is chosen to open from the library, ibook open a "blank" file -- showing only the ibook background.
One can try closing and re-opening the PDF and after three or four times it'll open -- seems to be random.
These PDFs are created in Adobe Acrobat 9.

Problem with displaying a report in browser

its the same as used in the doc at otn.
I have included the report in forms developer and passed its id to the function with the reports server name (in my case its 'rep')
Can any body help me?

Hammad,
your code does hardcode a "4" as the first digut of all jobids. This seems to be a relict of a harcoded testing
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid4'|| vjob_id||'?server=' || vc_reportserver,'_blank');
Remove it and all should be fine.

Authorization problem when displaying icons in BW Report

Hi All
I have the following problem when display BW Report as iView: The report data itself is displayed perfectly but to display the icons (like DrillDown arrows, Hierarhy level open arrows) the Windows login message "Connect to <my BW server.com>:8000" appears and I have to enter BW user name and password explicitly. The system for BW is defined, the user is mapped, UIDPW method is used. Again, the report data itself is displayed, the problem is only with icons. I can see that the path to icons is like:
http://<my BW server>.com:8000/sap/bw/Mime/BEx/Icons/s_b_up.gif
How could I rid of this authorization request?

Thanks! I already did this and it helped for most of icons. But for five remaining icons i still get authorization request althoug these icons are in the same path. The icons are:
http://<server>.com/sap/bw/Mime/BEx/Icons/cascading.gif
http://<server>.com/sap/bw/Mime/BEx/Icons/checked.gif
http://<server>.com/sap/bw/Mime/BEx/Icons/separator.gif

Internal error when try to display Interactive Report

Hello Gurus
I'm facing problem with displaying Interactive Reports in Web GUI (CRM 2007). When I try to open existing report or new created one, I see on the display area error "Load failed, Internal error" (no other system errors)
I think all configuration is done well, I have checked it by reports: Z_OLTP_CONFIG_CHECK and Z_OLTP_CONFIG_CHECK_BI, and except error DataSource /CRMBW/BOOL_TEXT is not active, everything is ok.
By the way - how can active this data source, while I can't find it anywhere, even in repository (RSA5)?
I thought maybe problem is with my browser or Flash player, but other functionalities uses flash work good (ie. key figures).
Any hints?
Best regards
Lukasz

Should Display PDF in Browser be able to be checked & unchecked in Preferences

I no longer can download Safari documents, like credit card statements, as PDF files. I went into Preferences/Internet and found that the "Display PDF in Browser" is not an option that can be check or unchecked. Is that the problem?

"Display PDF in Browser" is greyed out in Adobe Reader 10.1.2. This is by design.
Also, There are known compatibility issues between Safari and Adobe Reader. Please see
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/908/cpsid_90885.html
the page also includes link to an plug-in on Adobe Labs that is under development.
You can try downloading the pdf on your computer and then open it with Adobe Reader desktop application

Displaying both Hindi and Arabic numerals in Oracle 10g PDF report

Hi….
Oracle experts told us to ask “In how many ways we can do it in oracle?” instead of asking “Can we do it in Oracle?” , I need ONE way to solve the following problem, it toke to much time and I don’t know if it can be solved !
The problem:
Can we print in - Oracle 10g reports - a PDF report with BOTH Hindi and Arabic numerals?
Well, at design time everything is fine, you can use right-to-left, left-to-right and the print preview is showing BOTH Hindi/Arabic numerals fine, but when I tried to produce it as a PDF, unfortunately its not, means its either all Hindi or all Arabic numerals !
I tried everything possible, environment variables: NLS_LANG, REPORTS_BIDI_ALGORITHM, and REPORTS_ARABIC_NUMERLS, setting Digit substitution to Context in windows regional settings, uifont.ali is modified properly according to metalink note, but nothing solved this issue!
I noticed something, when I used the DESTYPE=printer and DESNAME=PDF995 (one of the PDF printers) , it worked fine , means the problem could be in the generic PDF generator of the Oracle reports server,
But even with PDF995 you still need to feed the file name, which is not suitable for multi-user environment that need the report to be displayed via web browser.
Does anybody face this before?

CANNOT DISPLAY A WORD/EXCEL DOC IN BLOB FIELD INTO A PDF REPORT

We created a report that should display several kinds of documents at one time.
These documents are stored in BLOB columns in database. We had no problem to
display txt, gif or jpeg, but we could not display doc, xls, pdf or html
documents.
In this report we set three different fields in which display different kinds
of documents depending on mimetype. The first field has FileFormat property set
to 'Text' in order to display 'text/plain' and 'text/html' mimetype documents.
The second field has it set to 'Image', which allow to display 'image/bmp',
'image/gif', 'image/x-png', 'image/pjpeg' mimetypes. The third field has this
property set to 'OLE2', and here is where we would like to display other
mimetype documents as 'application/msword', 'application/vnd.ms-excel',
'application/pdf'.
We run the report on the web using:
http://<server>:<port>/dev60cgi/rwcgi60
?server=<report_server>
&report=<rdf_name>
&destype=localfile
&desname=<report_name.pdf>
&userid=<user>/<password>@orcl9i
&desformat=pdf
<6meters>
I have already read a lot of notes in Metalink but I could not find any
solution. Is there any way to display a Word/Excel document from database in a
report?
We tried to convert Word/Excel docs to html format, but when we tried to
display an HTML document in the report, we found that Oracle Reports displays
the source code instead of the HTML format document. So, this did not work.
What can we do?
We also read somewhere that a possible solution would be to convert Word/Excel
documents to a common format like GIF, JEPD or PDF. If processed as gif or jped
the file could be displayed in the report. If processed as pdf the document
could be linked in the report.
I tried to display a PDF in the report but a blank box is displayed. How can I
do this too?
Any solutions?

Hi,
I have the same problem. I need to show up a BLOB, word file(.doc), in a custom report. I made a simple query, extracting file_date( the column having the blog (.doc) file) from the database, in the report and placed it on a layout by assigning it to a field "F_1". I addressed the file format as OLE2.
But when I run the Report in APPS, it shows up an error "REP-1814: Report cannot be formatted. Object 'horizontally and vertically' can never fit within 'F_1'.". I also played with the layout by changing its size but the response had no change.
I am using Reports6i and the output format of the report is PDF. Is there a way to resolve the issue? Please share the solution if you have any for this.

PDF report printing is displaying '?' mark instead of thai characters

Hi All,
When trying to print PDF report I am getting question mark "?" for thai characters.
In browser it is showing properly.The problem is happening only when I open pdf file.It is showing "?" mark instead of thai characters.
I tried developing simple application in apex.oracle.com and I could reproduce the problem.It is showing "?" mark.
Below is the link:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=40394:1:1102169243398303
username: thai
paswd: thai123
Thai characters are displaying properly outside Apex.So there is no problem with BI Publisher.
I also tried the suggestion given in below link but no luck
Re: Cannot print out Chinese , show as '?' in pdf report
When I try the same thing in apex.oraclecorp.com it is working fine .I could clearly see thai characters.It is working fine
My Adobe version is 8.x
Is there any difference compared to apex.oraclecorp.com and apex.oracle.com settings for BI publisher?
nls_language on server = 'THAI_THAILAND.TH8TISASCII and' 'PlSqlLanguage = AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8'
System Locale is set to thai and also the browser encoding set to thai windows
Thanks in advance for your inputs.
Kind Regards,
Anwar

Hello Mark,
I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
