bogdom and gaben,
I belong to your club too it seems. Though in my case the compilation was required on each database. Report used to work in the only that database in which they were compiled. Connecting to other database used to give this string error. Moreover this problem existed only for those reports in which i had used PL/SQL code in the formula columns. One way to avoid this is by writing all PL/SQL code in a library and call it in the formula column calculations.

REP-0002: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file;

Hi,
I've a custom report in which i need to display a large string, of more than 4000 characters. To cater to this requirement i've written a formula column which displays string upto 4k characters and for a string of size beyond 4k i am calling a procedure which uses a temp table having a clob field.
For a small string the report runs fine but whenever a large string requirement comes into the picture, said procedure gets triggered and i get REP-0002: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file.
OPP log for the same gives an output as under:

Report Builder 10g

Searched for the same on metalink and found Article ID 862644.1, other than applying patch and upgrading version of BI Publisher is there any other workaround to display a comma seperated string as long as 60k characters, If any please suggest.
Thanks,

XML Report completes with error due to REP-271504897: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file.

We are in the middle of testing our R12 Upgrade. I am getting this error from the invoice XML-based report that we are using in R12. (based on log). Only for a specific invoice number that this error is appearing. The trace is not showing me anything. I don't know how to proceed on how to debug where the error is coming from and how to fix this. I found a patch 8339196 that shows exactly the same error number but however, I have to reproduce the error in another test instance before we apply the patch. I created exactly the same order and interface to AR and it doesnt generate an error. I even copied the order and interface to AR and it doesn't complete with error. It is only for this particular invoice that is having an issue and I need to get the root cause as to why. Please help. I appreciate what you all can contribute to identify and fix our issue. We have not faced this issue in R11i that we are maintaining right now for the same program which has been running for sometime. However, after the upgrade for this particular data that the user has created, it is throwing this error REP-271504897.

Hi,
Check on this note also : Purchasing Reports Fail When Changing Output To XML REP-0002 REP-271504897 REP-57054 (Doc ID 1452608.1)
If you cant reproduce the issue on other instance, apply the patch on the test instance and verify all the funcionality related to the patch works OK. Then move the patch to production. Or you can clone the prod environment to test the patch.

Connecting to db2 from report builder via odbc

Hi!
Some manuals said, it is possible to connect to DB2 from Oracle SQL*Plus (we have version 8.0.6.0.0)
and from Oracle Report Builder.(6.0.8.11.3)
User must install OCA (Oracle Open Client Adapter for ODBC (6.0.5.29.0)) and make ODBC entry.
I did it.
run with: plus80 db2user/db2pass@odbc:db2test
SQL*Plus made the connection, but with errors:
SQL*Plus: Release 8.0.6.0.0 - Production on Fri Oct 17 16:12:56 2003

The error refers PUPBLD.SQL, but I think it is Oracle specific, don't help.
Worse, that it can't connect from Report Builder, it just throws error.
If I set OCA_DEBUG=TRUE in registry, I have bonus messages:
oca-30053 unsupported network call (oracle code: 3115)
oca-30002 ubofssw function not supported (1010)
I tried to connect to MsAcces too, but I got same errors.
Have you any idea, how can I solve this?
Thanks

Why is printing report different from report builder and app server

I created a report and when ran from report builder it looks fine.
And when i moved the report to server and ran the report in the browser using this url
http://192.1.1.8:7778/reports/rwservlet?userid=esp/esp_dev1@wdev&report=FMMA_VOUCHER.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=pdf
and print it the report shrinks, the fonts become small and the margins change. I am having hard time how to figure out a way to correlate the formatting in the report builder and when i run on the server using pdf format.
Is there any way to set the server so that the pdf output matches with the report builder.
Thanks.
Sree

How to remove Built-in-Fields from Report builder report

I have create SSRS report which is sending email to recipient but at the bottom of report email I am also getting
report accessible address. I don’t want to send that address to recipient. How should I remove from report builder?

You have to change the report subscription, and untick the checkbox that says to also send it as a link.

Subject in Email is always "Report sent from Report Builder"

We run Forms 6.08 in C/S - architecture.
Forms calls reports:
ADD_PARAMETER(pl_id, 'SUBJECT',TEXT_PARAMETER, 'Please read appending pdf' );
add_Parameter(pl_id,'DESTYPE',TEXT_PARAMETER, 'Mail');
Run_Product(reports, 'MY_Report', SYNCHRONOUS, BATCH, Filesystem, pl_id);
This works: Lotus pops up and a Email is initialized with a pdf appended.
But the subject isn't filled in properly. There is always a constant text: "Report sent from Report Builder"
How can I control the subject?
Is it possible to fill in some text into the Email-body?
Wolfram

Hi,
Please find my comments below :
1. Subject is coming properly in EN but for DE taking the subject from standard task , BASIC DATA tab, Abbrevatio or Name ...
which i am not able to rectify. i am not required to translate in DE , have to send email as it is in EN. but subject is only missing
and everything is working fine. Can you please suggest me here ?
Ans. Your problem here is not clear...Is this a Work Item or mail ?.. Is your subject missing with Work Item in DE ?...
2. For the (sent) From email address instead of email something like WF_USER , i have to display like below :
densapwfadmin
Ans. Are you using talking about Extended notification here?... or just about mail step in your workflow?...

Showing Japanese characters from Report Builder

Hi , We've some problem showing the Japanese characters using Oracle Report builder 6i (6.0.8.17.0).
Our database version is Oracle9i-9.0.1.4.0 and
we'r using the DB character set as US7ASCII and National charecter set as UTF8 (Tried with AL16UTF16 but it's supported as per Oracle-metalink). We'r using Solaris 9 (OS 5.9) to invoke the Report Builder.
Japanese characters are able to insert and select from SQL prompt using Japanese Terminal..
But from the Report builder when we run the Report, we'r seeing some junk characters. Please help if anybody has worked on showing the Japanese characters from Report builder.
Thanks

Generate PDF from App. Srv. Produces Larger File than from Reports Builder

Good Day,
I have a the below issue , and need your help please.
When generating a PDF report from the application server, the PDF size is large (200 MB) while
same report is generated from the builder with smaller size 10MB.
- Report Builder 9.0.2.0.3
- The report contain only TEXT no Image , and contain arround 4000 pages ...
The steps done from Application server in command line :
- First I tested with several values for the parameter OUTPUTIMAGEFORMAT : file size stays the same or increases.
- Second I tested with parameter PDFCOMP (for PDF compression) with varying values from 0 to 9 : file size stays the same.
Kindly help ...

From report builder :
I open only the .rdf and generate the output to a PDF file.
The number of page is from the PDf generated from Report builder , for the other one I Cant open it with PDF reader...
Thx.

Help! Print OLE object from report builder.

Dear OTN Members,
I would like to know how to print out a OLE object from
report builder, because currently I face problem to print out
the whole contain of the winword document file, because when I
display the OLE on the form it will only display according the
size I declare for it, it seems that it will not automatic
extend the size itself. i.e. if I drag the size to one page in
fact the maximum is one page, then when it display, it will only
display maximum one page eventhough the document file maybe
contain 10 page inside it. So when I print out the report it
will only show me one page, so if you have any solution, pls
share with me, thank you.

As far as I know you have to use OLE Item to work with the information. Unfortunately there is not any standart way to extract a source document from OLE. Some applications such as Word, Excel support OLE Automation, so you could use OLE2 package to save the document as a file, that is the easest way. But others don't, so you may have to use an undocumented way to extract a document.
Take a look at the following thread:
Subj: 6i to 9i Ole to LOB translations, How do you know the App. server?
Re: 6i to 9i Ole to LOB translations, How do you know the App. server?
P.S. If you can't extract some types of your documents, please let me khow.
P.P.S. To extract a document through OLE2 package you could use something like the following. /I'm not sure the code is correct/:
DECLARE
handle ole2.obj_type;
BEGIN
ACTIVATE_SERVER('OLE1');
handle := forms_ole.get_interface_pointer('OLE1');
BEGIN
-- Save a document to disk
Args :=OLE2.CREATE_ARGLIST;
OLE2.ADD_ARG(Args, 'C:\test.doc'); -- file name
OLE2.INVOKE(handle, 'SaveAs', Args);
OLE2.DESTROY_ARGLIST(Args);
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
Message('Error');
END;
-- OLE2.RELEASE_OBJ(handle);
END;

Graph wizard does not work from report builder

Hi,
I am again an agian posting the same question because still i am unable to run a graph wizard from my reports builder. When i run this i get a program error "rwbld60.exe has generated an error ...." This shuts down the entire report builder and i need to restart my report builder.
I have reports 6i on win 2000 with SP2.
Also i applied 6i latest patch 4.
I can see dr. watson log generated.
my machine virtual memory is 893756.
I am really getting a hard time with this.
Thanks in adv.,
shailesh

Thanks guys for all your support.
I have this working now. I did a
fresh install for oracle reports and it worked for me.
For sure its working now i can't gurantee
in future. I will conclude this after testing this for couple of days.
Anyway thanks once agian,
shailesh
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Niranjan Ramakrishnan:
I would strongly suggest that the reports development team's idea to contact Support on this is a flawed one. I had very similar issues with my reports builder except that the Dr. Watson happened every where (even while just invoking reports builder) - opening the layout editor when graphics were involved, running the report, using the chart wizard, etc.
I opened a TAR on this with Support. Their response? We can't reproduce it on our computer so bad luck and good bye.
All I ask is that the reports team give us something to be able to provide some kind of function call trace information when the Dr. Watson does occur.
I use patchset 5a. Also, btw, I tried to run a report with graphics on Solaris from the builder and guess what? It core-dumped. Any way to send you guys trace files from there atleast?
Calling support is not an acceptable solution.
