Hi Tim,
Context: R12 France Telecom (FT) migration from 11i
FT Reports are complex and the quantity of data / size of files generated by reports can reach up to 20Go. So I need to convert RDF to DATA Template because RDF can not generate some so big files (limit=2Go in 11i and may be 10Go in 12)
I experience some troubles / issues / limits with reports conversion to XML.
1 - some Data templates are not generated because of error : [052107_102109040][][EXCEPTION] java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index: 0, Size: 0. I sent you 2 mails in the past with error detail but have no answer.
2 - Data Templates are not directly usable because Reports include call to packages stored in PLL files. Pakages definition are well include in XML file generated by Report converter (1st step of conversion) but are not take in account when PL/SQL routine generation (Data template generation).
Can you help me especially for the 1st issue
I'd like to show a XMLP demo to FT using the Data source generator XDODTEXE in GL. I see XDOGLDEMO and GLGENJRNDT concurrent programs but there is no Data Definition / XML Data Template associated. Can you tell me if it exists a Data Template and where it can be retrieved from.

Exporting Queries from Developer Reports .rdf file

Is there a way I can extract the queries from the Developer Reports .rdf file.
We have the reports on a NT File server from where the users access the reports. We do not have the Report tables installed in the database.
We are using Developer Reports 3.0
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chegi Reddy

This isn't possible directly. You could use the conversion utility to convert the rdf files to rex files (textual representations), or XML files with the 9i release, and then parse these files to get the queries. Note that since rex is considered an 'internal' representation there's no documentation on the structure, but it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out where the queries are.
Hope this helps,
Danny

Hi Jude,
Do like this:
1. Create two inbound Service Interface (with the same target Message Type)
2. Create separate Operation mapping with the above service interfaces as target (with the same source service interface)
3. Create Interface Determination and include these two operation mapping (without any condition)
4. Create 2 receiver agreement (with two separate communication channel) for each of the target service Inetrface. In one channel use content conversion and the other one will give you normal XML output

Report 6i rdf's and XML Publisher

I'm trying to decide whether to implement Reports Developer 10g or XML Publishing as our reporting tool. Can I get some feedback from XML Publisher users who have also worked with the Oracle reporting tool Reports 6i? (I'm currently working with 6i)
How difficult is it to convert existing .rdf's into XML douments?
Are the complex queries represented in the 6i data model neatly transferred to the XML document or is there a lot of tweaking involved?
Do you find that you can create complex queries in the XML Publisher tool or is it easier to do it in Reports 6i and transfer the results over to XML?
How many of the Oracle seeded reports that are delivered as .rdf's have you converted to using the XML Publisher?

I got a new macbook air and took my old macs back up and put it on the new macs desktop. How do I put my old files and apps to have this new computer look like my old one?

Help! Please! Thanks so much!!!!!

Well, I don't know how you made the backup nor how you restored the backup. However, you don't put an entire backup on to the Desktop.
I suggest you do the following:
Open Users & Groups preferences. Click ont the lock icon and authenticate with the admin password you are currently using. Click on the Add [-] button and create a new account named "temp" (no quotes) and give the account admin status. Assign any password you want (but assign a password.)
Log out of the account you are using and log into the new, temp, account. Open Users & Groups preferences, click on the lock icon. Authenticate with the password you used for "temp." Select the other user account (not the one named Guest) and click on the Delete [-] button. Select the third removal option and click on the OK button.
Connect your backup drive. Open Migration Assistant in the Utilities folder. Select the option to migrate from another Mac or connected hard drive or select the option to restore from a Time Machine backup if TM was used to back up your old computer. Restore your old Home folder, third-party applications and support files, and system preferences per instructions in Migration Assistant.
After the migration has completed (will take several hours) log out of "temp" and log into your newly migrated account. Open Users & Groups preferences. Click on the lock icon and authenticate with your normal account's password. Select the "temp" account, click on the Delete [-] button. Select the third option and click on the OK button.
You should now have just one user account. The one migrated from your old computer.

How to compile reports Rdf files on Solaris

hi
My report is working fine in the Developer2000 env in report editor but when i put them on solaris
it says that it Contains the Uncompiled pl/sql . i have some pl/sql packages attached as programming unit
to the Report.
2) I have compiled it in D2K AND its working fine , same user/p @service login
3) Does any one knows whats the command line to compile on solaris
whats the Utility.
Regards
Jai

Jai,
The question seems bit vague, I have answered based on my undedrstaing of your question
1. You can compile a report in solaris also by opening it in Reports Builder and by chooing the submenu compile -all
2. You can also run the report in batchmode and give compileall=yes
Please see the commandline arguments section in the publishing reports manual at http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/reports/content.html

How to burst reports in text and XML format using API

Hi there,
I need to be able to burst PDF, Excel etc reports and at the same time, generate XML files containing metadata that will accompany the PDF files to their destination. The reason for this, is that the destination requires metadata to class the documents in the content management system.
My issue is that I just cannot get bursting to XML, text or HTML format right. There is very little documentation available around creating reports in these formats using the API's and perhaps someone who has gotten this right can, once and for all, solve this issue where others can find the solution.
Alright, here is some sample supporting documentation (For the sake of the question, I have removed the bursting to PDF, Excel etc. formats and I am just focusing on the XML output):
In my code for bursting, I make use of the following constructor...
DocumentProcessor dp =
new DocumentProcessor("ControlFile.xml", "TestData.xml", "temp");
The ControlFile.xml looks like this...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xapi:requestset xmlns:xapi="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/xapi">
_<xapi:request select="/DATA/LIST_BRANCH/BRANCH">
___<xapi:delivery>
______<xapi:filesystem id="dst" output="C:\${BRANCH_NAME}.xml"/>
___</xapi:delivery>
___<xapi:document output-type="text" delivery="dst">
______<xapi:template type="xsl-fo" location="Template.xsl"></xapi:template>
___</xapi:document>
_</xapi:request>
</xapi:requestset>
The data in my TestData.xml looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DATA>
___<LIST_BRANCH>
______<BRANCH>
__________<BRANCH_NAME>BRANCH 1</BRANCH_NAME>
______________ OTHER IRRELEVANT DATA
______</BRANCH>
______<BRANCH>
__________<BRANCH_NAME>BRANCH 2</BRANCH_NAME>
______________ OTHER IRRELEVANT DATA
______</BRANCH>
___</LIST_BRANCH>
</DATA>
In my ControlFile.xml, I reference my XSL file called Template.xsl which should do my transformations into XML. That file looks like:
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
__<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes">
__<xsl:template match="/">
____<METADATA>
_______<BRANCH>
___________<xsl:value-of select="BRANCH_NAME"/>
_______</BRANCH>
____</METADATA>
__</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I have tried about forty variations of the ControlFile.xml and Template.xsl and have had no luck. Among the various error messages that the compiler has reported to me, these are the most common:
[101507_055953158][][EXCEPTION] Error while generating the Document...
[101507_055953158][][EXCEPTION] org.xml.sax.SAXException: element metadata is not supported yet.
[101507_061037084][][EXCEPTION] Error while generating the Document...
[101507_061037094][][EXCEPTION] oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLParseException: Start of root element expected.
I have managed in some cases to get the API code to compile, but the outputs are empty 0kb files.
I have also exported an XSL-FO file from word, but the output is always PDF even with tweaking.
I have wasted about 9 hours on this problem and it is driving me mad! If anyone has ideas, tips and/or solutions, they would be very welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

Report acts funny AND xml-export broken

Hi @ all,
1.
My users are experiencing some weird problems: A report is displayed with the pagination showing that there are 59 rows, but the report is empty... only the column headings are shown!
Take a look at the screen shot (2004-07-21_Report-Problem.JPG):
http://marvel.oracle.com/pls/otn/p?n=3444139716751380138
I've seen this only a couple of times and we thought that we had eliminated the problem by installing a newer version of the IExplorer (6.0). My users had some more difficulties with the older version (mostly 5.0).
Creating this page I used the howto 'Build a master-detail application'. And yes, I'm positive, there are Samples associated with Delivery 11.
Has anyone ever experienced such a thing?? How did you get around it? (especially this being such a sometimes-works-sometimes-doesn't-work phenomenon)
2.
Another thing: I tried the XML-export (Data Workshop) here in my installation. When I'm at the very end and click Export Data I just get an error message: ORA-04063: has errors ORA-04063: package body "FLOWS_010404.WWV_FLOW_DATALOAD_XML" has errors ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called. (This happens whether the 'Export as file' -checkbox is checked or not!)
I tried exactly the same thing on marvel.oracle.com and got a nice XML-file. :-)
Has anyone a clue what that program unit is that is not found?
-David-

David,
1. Looks like a pagination problem. Look for threads on resetting pagination on this forum. Your mileage may vary, given the version of HTML DB you are running.
2. I know you don't want to hear this, but it's time to upgrade to the production version of HTML DB. Like you said, it's working on htmldb.oracle.com. It's tough to say what may be wrong with your setup, other than that it's pre-release software.

LAF Configuration File and OHW customization

1) It is not quite clear how to set up my own look and feel without changing the default cabo xss styles. As you show in presentation I have to register XML file (like amazon-laf.xml) that defines custom LAF in uix-config.xml. But I couldn't find the format specification of such configuration file (i mean amazon-laf.xml).
2) Is there any possibility to separate the node image of collapsed and expanded branches in TOCTreeNavigator mode? I'd like to have two difeerent images instead of single tn_chapter.gif.
3) When i change the background color of html pages (topics and/or main header) white region appears between frames and frames are resizable. Is it special feature? Setting "border" attribute value of <html:frameset ...> element to 0 (viewTopic.uix) should remove this region.

I happen to know that LAF customization isn't very well documented in UIX, and that UIX isn't exactly getting a lot of attention within Oracle. So trying to get the exact customization details from the JDev team (the UIX forum isn't active any more) is quite difficult.
For us outside of Oracle, using OHW/OHJ may require us to do customization. If Oracle doesn't plan to document the customization, I understand, but please don't simply pass us on to another group that will understand the question even less.

Create Report with CR4E and XML Data Source

Hi all,
I have a problem when create a report with CR4E that should use a XML data source. It is not possible to choose fields from the field explorer, because ther are no fields from the XML-file. Is there a general problem when using an ODA data source in CR4E? At the moment I can only create reports with a database as data source.
Please help me with a tip.
Thanks
Arnold

Hi,
After Installing CR4E Version 2 the code snippet for creating a XML-report not works as JSP. Has anywhere a hint to resolve the problem or a complete JSP-file?
reportClientDocument = new ReportClientDocument();

Output report to file and Screen

Is there a way to send the output of a report to a file (PDF) and also see the output on the screen? I am trying to use the "Distribution" feature but it is not working or maybe I am doing something wrong. Please help me.

"C:" drive for server is not your PC's "C" drive, but it's own "C" drive. If the servier is on the same network, you need to make your C drive available to the server, and specify the full path to it as seen from the server (Includeing machine name, etc.). Otherwise, you can only save the file to the server.
