REP-1920 Error Message

Our project has reports that fail with the following error message:
REP-1920: Character mode runtime incompatible with
DESFORMAT of PDF, HTML, HTMLCSS, or RTF.
It is not always the same reports that receive the above message, it appears to be random in nature. Indeed, the vast majority of time these reports run with no errors at all. All of a sudden, out of the blue, certain reports (no pattern, it could be any of our reports) will fail with the REP-1920 error message.
To make matters worse, NONE of our reports are in CHARACTER mode. All have an initial value of DEFAULT (i.e. BITMAP). Now we do have one report that generates a CHARACTER report dynamically, by passing a paramter at runtime, but that report (the .rdf) has a DEFAULT mode as well, and is run off of a different report server than all the other reports.
I have scoured the NET and have not found anything that can tell me why we are receiving these error messages. Anybody?
Note: We are running Report Server 6i Patch 10 (6.0.8.19.0) on a Windows 2000 box. Dev Tools are Patch 10 as well.
Thanks

Hi James,
We have never heard of this issue before. We can undeerstand the REP error if there is some contradiction in Report request between deformat and the mode. But since you told this happens once in a while, that too randomly, it seems, wrong message is being displayed. I suggest you get in contact with Oracle support on this issue. This need to be looked into.
Thanks,
Rohit

REP-1814 error message

Hi,
Can someone tell me why I am getting this error while runing a report?. the error message is REP-1814: Report cannot be formatted. Object 'vertically' can never fit within 'B_272'.
I don't have any object called 'Vertically' in my report. B_272 is just a text field.
Thanks alot
Kavita.

never mind, I figured out that the 'print object on' property of the frame above the current frame is causing this error.

REP-3000 Error Message

I have install Web Reports Server 6i on Solaris 2.8 x_86 platform and i hav configure its above documentation. I can start it under OAS 4.0.7 web listener. Then, if i want to create the test report on the web, i receive an error message:
REP-3000: Internal error starting Oracle Toolkit.
Tell me please, what can i do.

You may be right. But in this case i don't know another plase, there nls-support (*.nlb) files are may be installd. In my $ORACLE_HOME there are no directory, naming like datad2k. I think, that Developer 2k use nls-support files from base nls directory, because i install if after RDBMS, but after installation of Developer 2k in the list of installed products i so, that it content the 8.0.6 NLS-Support Files and Libraris. I in the firm belief that it is not RDBMS files, becouse the version of RDBMS is 8.0.5.
It meens, that the cause of REP-3000 error is other. If you know some more about it, tell me please.

Rep=2103 error message in oracle 10g

Hi After migrating from 6i to 10g I am getting the following msg when I try to generate a report:
rep-2103: column 'cf_street_address' : pl/sql formula returned invalid value or no value
I have the following code in my function:
function CF_street_addressFormula return VARCHAR2 is
begin
return(:address_line_1||' '||:address_line_2||' '||:address_line_3||' '||:address_line_4);
end;
Please help.

I'm using Reports 9.0.4.0.19 and I recreated the scenario without any issues. I'm just wondering what would happen if you wrapped the :address_lines in nvl's in case 10g cares.
return(nvl(:address_line_1,' ')||' '||nvl(:address_line_2,' ')||' '||nvl(:address_line_3,' ')||' '||nvl(:address_line_4,' '));
Sorry, I could reproduce the problem.

Imported image error - REP-6106: Error in XML Report Definition

Any ideas?

What may have happened is an error and a kernel panic, filling up the logfiles.
What I recommend is first to find a way to backup your data without booting the hard drive directly if it isn't already backed up, and then get Alsoft Disk Warrior to repair the hard drive.    You'll probably want an external drive from http://www.macsales.com/
And you'll want to go into Hard drive -> Library -> Logs, System -> Library -> Logs, and Users -> yourname -> Library -> Logs to remove whatever you find there.
If after booting it fills up again, start by removing all startup items in your System Preferences for your user, and rebooting in safe mode with the shift key held down. If the hard drive is over 85% full after removing the logfiles, you may want to look at what were the last applications you installed.
Peer2peer software if installed can be as bad as a virus, because it enables others to access your computer. Insecure wireless networks are just as bad, if they are WEP or no encryption and someone is within 1500 feet of your computer.
If no such software is installed, your RAM probably has failed.    Run the hardware test that came with your computer, by booting with the 'D' key.
If nothing shows up there, it can still be the RAM.   Especially if you've seen any 4 language screens telling you to restart.
Here's more on kernel panics:

REP-56071: Security check failed with error message: Error code30009 - Generic access check failed..
Hello,
I am also receiving the above error - these reports are deployed on our Portal - to which all registered SSO users should have access to.
one more thing...
We obtain the error only when execute under some "load", example: 15 reports running simultaneously.
Tx,
Diego.

I am also facing this problem - I've deployed the reports on the Portal and authenticated users can access the reports.
The problem is that when any authenticated user tries to access the report, on his very first access this error is shown.
REP-56071: Security check failed with error message: Error code30009 - Generic access check failed..
But after the user click on the Personalize link of the portlet and specify the parameters values(which are empty initially) then report runs fine.
Plz let me know the solution as no user will like to see this error message for the first time he opens the report.

Hello:
I am very much a novice with Final Cut. I am trying to import some video files from my desktop but keep getting an error message that says, "File error 1 file recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown". The file type is .mov, 35MB, 1920 x 1080, Codec MPEG-2 video linear PCM timecode, color profile HD (1+1+1). Can someone help? Thanks, Paul

You can't import MPEG-2 files directly to FCP X.
Can you play this file in Quicktime Player? If so, then you can use the free program MPEG Streamclip to convert this to Quicktime. Use the ProRes codec.

Error Message: REP-0606

Hi,
I got a error message in Report 6i:
REP-0606: unable to read link file 'I:\0\ABC.JPG'. check link file format.
How do I check the link file format?
Thanks.
Jun

Hi Jun,
This error doesn't come for all JPGs.
You can try the following :
1) Use an Image Editor/Converter to save the file.
In this case, use some Image Editor, and SAVE the file AS the same/or different filename. This should mostly resolve your problem.
2)Load image into OLE item.
Thanks,
Vinod

Hi!
We have an Oracle 9iAS R2 v9.0.2.2 installation on Linux (Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1). We have installed PatchSet 2703110, 2581587 and 2842923.
Oracle9i Reports version is: 9.0.2.2.0

Found on Metalink the following Note: 216847.1
This recommends to comment out the security and destination tags in ORACLE_MIDDLETIER_HOME/report/conf/<repserver>.conf file
After commenting them out reports works fine.
BUT
at the end of the note there is a note which states that "Commenting out the security tag removes the integration of the reports server and portal."
We need reports integration with Portal. We need SSO as well.
Could you give any workaround for this problem?

Hi Jeff,
Q(1): Yes.
(Report Name and Servers tab)
Report Server: REP_DKIPCIAS
Oracle Reports File Name: test.jsp
Execute: as JSP
(Other tabs)
Default values. Unchanged.
Q(2): (Acces Tab of Report Component)
Publish to Portal = checked
Inherit Privileges from Portal DB Provider = checked
(Acces Tab of Report Server Component)
Inherit Privileges from Portal DB Provider = checked
(SSO User)
The user I try to run the report with has the following group assignments:
Privilege Group
PORTAL_ADMINISTRATORS
PORTAL_DEVELOPERS
DBA
PORTLET_PUBLISHERS
Additional Info:
To be more specific: The mentioned security check failure exists outside of Portal as well. Eg. when we try to run the default portal test examples (test.jsp, test.rdf) from the iAS home page Demonstartions tab.
Thank You in advance,

Unable to render video in PSCS4 - Error Messages- QT DLL Issue??

I started this thread in the Adobe Forums for PhotshopCS4, but the consensus there was that my issue is a QuickTime issue, perhaps with a DLL and iTunes. I have included a few of those suggestions at the end of the post. I have tried uninstalling QT Pro, cleaning and reinstalling with no improvement. I have not removed iTunes and reinstalled.
`````````````````
I am unable to render video it seems in Photoshop CS4 Extended. Despite having the latest QuickTime Pro installed and all updates to Vista 32 bit and to CS4 Design Premium, I get the following error message:
"The procedure entry point CFCreateApplicationRepositoryPath could not be located in the data link library CoreFoundation.dll"
This happens when, for example, I load 100 medium resolution JPEGs as an image sequence and choose File >Export > Render Video.
If I OK through the error a couple of times I get a screen with output options, but usually some are greyed out. When I CAN put in QuickTime settings and choose export I get the following error:
"Could not complete the Render Video Command because of a program error."
When I have opened a support case with Adobe it has regularly been closed after being told to get QuickTime 7.2 or higher. GGGrrrr. I have QT 7.6.5 Pro installed.
Any help much appreciated....I do have Premiere Elements 7 installed as well FYI.

Was your QT properly installed with correct privileges? As Mr. Cox said, it seems there is an issue with your QT install. also, in the QT system control panle, enable the Allow Encoding using Legacy CoDecs option. this often fixes the weirdest issues (as it also catches a number of other legacy calls to QT components)...
Mylenium
Thanks guys- the QT install SEEMS fine....? I will try allowing legacy CODECs and if that doesnt ehlp I will totally uninstall QT Pro, clean the registry, reboot and install QT from the top. Will let you know how I get on with this.
Phil
I have enabled using legacy CODECs and restarted, same error message.
I have completely uninstalled QuickTime(Pro), run CCleaner to clear files and the registry...I have then rebooted, reinstalled Quicktime(Pro) 7.6.5, rebooted. I get the very same error message at that time.
Any further suggestions appreciated.
All the google searches point directly at Apple like Chris pointed out. I noticed that there were a lot of Apple product hits but the most standing out was itunes. Did you happen to install itunes software (or some other Apple product) and maybe itunes over-wrote the .DLL? Other then that thought I don't have any other input.
I agree this is an issue with an Apple DLL. The error you're getting suggests that the wrong version of the DLL is being used. It means that the thing that is rendering the video is expecting the CoreFoundation DLL to have a particular function called CFCreateRepositoryPath but it's not there.
What could be happening is that there are multiple instances of this DLL on the computer and the PATH is leading to the wrong one.
You might search your entire hard-drive and find where the CoreFoundation DLL exists and what version each is. If there is only one version, then perhaps your version of QuickTime is actually too new. Photoshop 11.0.1 came out a long time ago, and the version of QuickTime referred to in the support-ticket-closure response is also pretty old, so maybe the newest QuickTime is using a newer version of the DLL that Photoshop knows how to deal with.
Searching my system for CoreFoundation. there is one smaller version of the DLL in Apple Application Support dated in November and then several larger ones in directories dealing with mobile phones like the iPhone, which I don't have one of, dated a few months earlier.
I'm guessing the iPhone stuff came with iTunes, which I do have installed, though I don't really use it.
Thanks for looking, really hoping for some help here.

"The procedure entry point CFCreateApplicationRepositoryPath could not be located in the data link library CoreFoundation.dll"
Thanks for all the detailed information, pw. It's very helpful.
Okay, the most recent versions of QuickTime require a fully functional Apple Application Support in order to run properly. You're getting a problem with one of the Apple Application Support dlls. So the best thing to do first would be to uninstall both Apple Application Support and QuickTime, and then reinstalling QuickTime (which should reinstall a fresh version of Apple Application Support).
There's 7/Vista 32-bit instructions for doing that in the following post:
