Problem to display image on report

Hi,
I have an image on a differnt server owned by different group. And I need to bring that image and display it on the report. Is this possible? Can some one hlep me how to do this?
It was working fine in reports 2.5 but we migrated to 10g and it stopped working.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
you can embed the image in your oracle report when you give the image item the URL of the image.
The image item in your report MUST NOT be horizontally or vertically flexible it must have a fixed height and width.

Problem with displaying image

Hello!
Sorry, I'm a beginner in APEX and have some problems with displaying images in my application. I have read the same topic but unfortunately didnt find the solution.
So.. I have the interactive report
table test (
NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(4000)
ID NUMBER
BLOB_CONTENT BLOB
MIME_TYPE VARCHAR2(4000))
I need to display the column blob_content.
Thnks a lot.

When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.

Problem in displaying images one by one in JList

I have a problem in displaying images one by one in Jlist. I want to show 100 images as a thumbnailview in jlist but it is talking too much time to show all the images after scalling 100 images to thumbnail view and making it into ImageIcon. So, i thought that it would be better way to show one by one after scaling it into thumnailview. But my renderer is getting calling after 100 images scaled down and setting into list. I have posted my code 2 days back but there is no reply.
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=789943
I donno where i am missing in this code.
Plz suggest me some solution for it.

Where is the scaling done? In the ListCellRenderer? Regardless of where that is being done, I assume you are caching the scaled images after you scale them, right? If not, consider adding some sort of caching.
This should do the trick...
Rework your ListCellRenderer to check to see if a scaled version of the image is available. If not, start a thread to do the scaling and create an ImageIcon. In the meantime, while that thread is running, have the renderer return some sort of stock icon, like a little generic image icon. When the scaling thread completes, make a call to repaint() on the JList so the cell renderer gets re-asked for the icons. This time around, the renderer should notice that a scaled version (the ImageIcon) is available. Return that. So, this method doesn't guarantee that the images will be produced in order, 1...2...3..., but it will return images as they become available, and the overall JList rendering won't wait until all 100 are ready. If you want them returned in order, just do all of the scaling in a single thread and queue up the images to be scaled, in order.
I hoped this helps. (If it does, please throw me some Duke Dollars.)

Problem in displaying images

Dear JSP/Servlet experts,
I have problem in displaying images on a JSP page. I stored all the images names in a database and
try to retrieve them based on the user selection. When the JSP page is load for the first time the
following error occur but the images are displayed correctly:
2002-08-07 04:40:15 - Ctx( /simple ): IOException in: R( /simple + /images/cover150.jpg + null) Connection aborted by peer: socket write error

Here is the code to display the images(the getCover() method will return cover150.jpg, cover151.jpg.... )
and the images are stored in /simple/images folder

No data found when display image in report

Hi,
I have a table with a blob field in it which I use to store some image (gif),
I tried to display the image in report but follow the guideline in http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21674/advnc_blob.htm#BCGBCHBD
but when I run the report, error
"report error:
ORA-01403: no data found"
prompt, I do not have MIME,FILENAME column in the table, so I define only
IMAGE,Table Name,Column containing BLOB,Primary Key Column 1 and Primary Key Column 2 in the report column.
Anyone has also this problem?
Thanks
Pek

Hi,
I found that the problem is there when I select the option
"Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" in the report.
Is this a bug?

Display Image on report through Field Definitions Only File.

Hi all,
I have a report where I work with Field Definitions Only files (ttx).
These files are mapped to classes in code behind (csharp).
In code behind I make lists of these classes. Each list is set as the datasource of a subreport.
This works great!
My new goal:
Now I tried adding a picture to my report.
In the TTX file I added a BLOB field.
In the code-behind class I added a System.Drawing.Image.
My actual problem:
The class gets filled with the image, but the image is NOT displayed on the report
Does anyone know why this is happening?
How can I fix this? (should I use another Type in my class for the picture?) (should I format the picture in the report? ....)
Kind regards,
Wim

Hi AG,
Thanks for your response.
This is my TTX field:
Signature BLOB
I can't see the image in the report because I create the image in code-behind.
I think the problem doesn't occur in CrystalReports but in the conversion from my StrokeCollection (I use an InkCanvas [WPF] to capture a signature) to a ByteArray.
I am already one step closer to the solution. You can't just assign an object of type Image to the BLOB field of the report but it has to be a Byte-Array.
The problem I am facing now is that the picture is black after a conversion. (I see this when I export to disk and open the file in MSPaint).
The good thing is that CR shows me a black image so I guess CR is doing its job!
Kind regards,
Wim

Problem with displaying images exported to PS

This is slightly different than the post about TIFF files not displaying properly.
In Aperture 1.2, when I exported an image to PS and did extensive work on it, and then saved back to Aperture, it would appear in Aperture just as it looked in PS when I saved it.
However, in 1.5, that does not happen. After I save the image, and then go back to Aperture, all of the changes I made in PS don't appear! However, if I again open the image in PS a second time, it will change to the PS version even before the image gets to PS (I can see it change right when I click "open with external editor").
Is this a difference with how 1.2 and 1.5 handle the files? I'm guessing it has something to do with image previews, because I chose not to have Aperture generate previews when I installed 1.5 due to the slow-down issues I saw reported here.
I'm starting to wonder what the point of upgrading to 1.5 was for me... if I can't take advantage of previews (accessing my Aperture library from other apps like Keynote, etc) and if the PS files I work on don't display properly, I'd rather go back to 1.2. This is a major problem in my workflow, since I often spend a lot of time working on images in PS, and I need to be able to see them that way when I return to Aperture.
I'm hoping there's some setting somewhere I can use to fix this. Is there?

David,
I really appreciate your offer to help. However, I have the problem with all images in my library in all projects, so I'm not sure how useful it would be for you to work with a single image I upload to a server.
I'm having the same problem on my MacBook too, though for some unknown reason there are certain projects on my MacBook that the process works fine with. I cannot tell any difference between those projects (that work) and those that don't.
What's even more strange... if I quit Aperture, and re-open it, and then go through the process (open a file in PS2, save, return to Aperture) - it works fine! But ONLY ONE TIME. If I try the same process again, on that same image, or any other image in my library, it will not work. It only works the FIRST TIME I do it after opening Aperture. I tested this several times and got the same result.
I am completely stumped here. I've tried generating previews for a project and turning all of the preview options on, but that doesn't solve the problem either.
Anyone out there have a clue what might be happening? This is more than a minor inconvenience... if my image management system can't display the image as it should appear, it's unusable.

Display Image in Report

Hi,
I want to display image link in one of the columns in report.
ex: if i click that image it should go to google maps.
I stored the image in /res/s_protal/image.jpg and also in oc4j.
I know to fmap to show it only once.
but i want to reflect it in all the rows of a column.
Things i tried:
Stored in the same machine took the ip addres and prot and given as below it was working.
But if i move it to other machines then it getting failed so again i want to update the machine ip.
http://225.225.225.225:9704/analytics/res/s_proact/images/images.jpg
Is there any possible way to give some common syntax so that the corresponding machine ip will be pointed once the
report moved to different machines.
Thanks,
satheesh

Hi Santeesh,
I just saw your post and I thought I'd ask you with my query:
I want to add some pop-up info on some of the data when the user hover on it. have you
got a clue what do I need to do for that?

Displaying image in report DESFORMAT ='SPREADSHEET' (Excel)

Hi,
I want to display a logo in Excel report. I have created one formula column with function
function CF_4Formula return Char is
begin
return('/report/xls/gelogo_new.bmp');
end;
I have placed the image in the above path. When I execute the report image is not appearing in it.
What could be the issue?
Below is the code in After Parameter form Trigger.
:DESTYPE = 'FILE'
:DESNAME := '/report/stg/'||:p_report_name||'_'||:p_calendar_month||:p_calendar_year||'.xls';
:DESFORMAT: 'SPREADSHEET'
Also please tell me how to set/see the default directory of REPORTS_PATH in Unix server.
Can anyone please help me out with this issue.
Thanks,
Kishore.

Thanks for the response. Sadly yes, the path is correct. I've
tried both the relative path and the full path (e.g.
../images/theimage.jpg and
http://mysite.com/images/theimage.jpg)
. Putting either address into a browser will return the correct
image if I'm in the right location.
So, I can get this expression: IIf(query.image NEQ "",
DE("../images/smProds/" & query.image), DE("None")) to display
the correct path, but what I really need is the image located at
that spot to display in the report. What is happening is that
report builder is returning the string, but not the image. When I
looked at the tutorial it implied that the image would be displayed
rather than the string.
Is there something in report builder that determines whether
the actual image is displayed? A property setting that I'm missing?
Or maybe the expression iteself is wrong i.e. it is doing exactly
what it should (display the string) and a different expression
format is required to get the image iteself. For example, flagging
some text as a hyperlink to the image? Not sure how you would pass
the image name value in that case.
Appreciate your suggestions.

Displaying image in report

I'm new to CF Report Builder and having trouble determining
how to get a dynamic image to display in the detail band. The query
for the report correctly returns the image file name, but the
following expression doesn't display the image although the path is
correct.
IIf(query.image NEQ "", DE("../images/smProds/" &
query.image), DE("None"))
When I run the report, I get just .. in the space where the
image should display if one is available and the text "None" if the
field is empty. I found a tutorial on Report Builder that suggested
using similar code, but it didn't provide an actual example. Using
their code produced the same lack of results.
I've tried various versions of this with no success yet. Am I
missing something about how to include an image in the report? A
static image in the report uses the same basic path information. Of
course that image name and path aren't being generated from an
expression, it is just an inserted image and it shows up in the
header and footer bands as expected.
Thanks for any guidance.

Problem in displaying images stored in Blob variable

Hi all,
I have a requirement where i need to retrieve the image stored in Blob variable in DB and display the image in JSP page.
I have written the below code to achieve this, it works fine
In JSP, I am calling a action in the <img tag
<img src='downloadPhoto.page?method=getPhotoInBytes&accessoryModelPictures.id.accessoryNumber=${photo.id.accessoryNumber}/> In my controller class
InputStream inputStream=accessoryPicturesLOB.getPicture().getBinaryStream();
byte[] theBytes = new byte[inputStream.available()];
inputStream.read(theBytes);
response.setContentType("image/jpg");
response.getOutputStream().write(theBytes);But the problem is, *if i right click on the image and select save picture as option i get a error saying "The system cannot find the specified file "*
Can you please tell me what is wrong in my approach/code
Is there any better approach to display image that is store in Blob variable ?
Please help on this.
Thanks in advance.

You need at least to set the filename in the content disposition header.

Problem for displaying image in jsp

I like to retrieve and display image from database in jsp file. Now, image has been retrieved and store in session. But it cannot be displayed in jsp. Who can help me? Thanks a lot!
Codes like below:
<%
byte[] b = (byte[])session.getAttribute("sessionName");
System.out.println(b.length); //the length can be printed at console successfully
if(b != null) {
response.setContentType("image/*");
OutputStream toClient=response.getOutputStream();
toClient.write(b);
toClient.flush();
toClient.close();
%>

JSP is designed to return text/html documents.
As such it automatically calls getWriter() to return a character stream. (places it in the implicit variable "out"
Seeing as you want to return bytes, instead of character data, the JSP technology is not applicable
Calling getOutputStream after getWriter has been called results in an IllegalStateException
So calling getOutputStream in a JSP will ALWAYS throw an exception.

Error: "file not found" when try to display image on report

Dear All
I have a problem when running my report.
My Table emp_info Stores all data about employees in addition to the employee image path.
I made a report that display employee information including its photo.
I run my report passing the parameter p_emp_id to display the desired emploree information.
I made a field on the report to display the employee image
and i set its property READ FROM FILE = YES and FILE FORMAT=IMAGE
But the following error occurs
"File '\\iai3\iaigc\ALL\emp_images\51.JPG' not found. "
I'm sure that the path is correct
But i do not know why the report stops and can not read the image path.
My platform is:
Oracle application server installed on linux
and oracle report builder installed on widows for development

Dear aweiden
thanks for replaying
I belive you are right . I think the problem is in the path.
But there is something that i did not mentioned to you. I work on two different servers.
1- "iai2" : Linux server which contains oracle application server.
2- "iai3" Windows 2003 server which contained oracle database 10g and the folder "aigc\ALL\emp_images" which contains Employees images
I think that the problem is that Linux server can not understand the path "\\iai3\iaigc\ALL\emp_images\51.JPG".
Do you have any idea how the path should be changed so that Linux can recognizes it.
Thanks in advance
