Rep-52005 error when running a report from form with parameter form

Question

I am trying to run a report from a web deployed form and this report has a parameter form. I am getting a Rep-52005: The specified key report does not exist in key map file.
I am using Oracle Forms/Reports 10.1.2.0.2. My code is below. The first part works fine where I run a report with no parameter form, but the second part when I have a parameter form gets the about error.
PROCEDURE call_report (
p_report_name VARCHAR2,
p_reportobj_name VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,

END;
My parameter form comes up and I enter the necessary information and hit submit query button. Then I get the Rep-52005: The specified key report does not exist in key map file.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

Your code seems to be implementing metalink note 139546.1 - Using Reports parameter forms with RUN_REPORT_OBJECT on the web.
For what I can see, the P_ACTION parameter should end in ?...
i.e.
P_ACTION=http://<hostname.domain:port>/reports/rwservlet?'
set_report_object_property (
repid,
report_other,
'paramform=yes P_USER_CONNECT='
|| vc_connect
|| ' P_SERVERNAME='
|| v_reportserv
|| ' P_ACTION='
|| v_report_url
|| '/reports/rwservlet?'
);If this does not fix your problem, then to troubleshoot further you would have to post the code in your Before Parameter Form trigger of your report.
Hope this helps,
UPDATE:
If the above does not fix your problem, my guess is that report name is not being generated in the hidden runtime values build by the code in the Before Parameter Form trigger.
i.e.
http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet?report=&destype=cache&desformat=PDF
The above code will throw error REP-52005: The specified key report does not exist in key map file.
