Report background engine not generated
Hi Friends,
I have installed Developer 6i -Forms and Reports.
When I try to run a report in an aplication after giving parameters in the paraform it gives an error illegal operation for rwbe60 it doesn't generate the background engine and so the report in not run.
If i run the same report through report builder it runs but no report background engine is generated.
Pls give a solution uf anyone can.
Thanks in advance
Manoj
Hi,
Add the following:
add_parameter(pl_id, 'ORACLE_SHUTDOWN', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'Yes');
Note, the 'Yes' is case sensitive. The 'y' must be upper case followed by lower case 'es'.
run_product(REPORTS, '<repname>', SYNCHRONUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl_id);

Closing Reports Background Engine from VB
I have a Visual Basic 6 application that runs Reports 6 reports with the ActiveX control Rwsxa60.ocx. When you close the application, the Reports background engine is still open. Is there a way to close the engine through VB? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
you can not close the RBE from reports as it would require a report to be executed ... i guess you get the problem.
the only way to close the RBE is from forms.
thanks,

hi
i am using reports6i. every time i run a report, the report background engine appears in my task bar. By closing the report, it still persists in the task bar, and i have to close it manually.
Is there any way that by closing the report, the report background engine shuts down automatically.

Lahore, Pakistan.You can try to add this parameter to the call of report
"oracle_shutdown=yes"
Sorry, but i am not sure of the name of the parameter and i cannot find the reference anywhere. If i find it i will post an update. -

Report Background Engine Memory Increasing on Reports 6i
Hi... we recently upgraded our ERP system from Developer 2000 to 6i. Some of our functions require many reports to print at once (labels, invoices, pick tickets, etc).. What we've noticed is that when we do this, the report background engine increases in memory significantly and does not release the memory when finished.... and can cripple the work station.
We know we can issue the Oracle_shutdown parameter to close the RBE after each report, but are there any other options as we feel this may slow down our printing?
Thanks,
ScottIf you use "dynamic" ref cursor, your package specification must have "dynamic" ref cursor type for (dynamic) query
(from 9i we can use predefined SYS_REFCURSOR built-in data type) and "static" ref cursor type for Report Layout.
SELECT statement in "dynamic" ref cursor must have the same number and type of columns as "static" ref cursor type.
And, of course, your package must be stored (=database) package, because PL/SQL engine in Reports 6i is v.8.0
but "dynamic" ref cursor is a new feature of PL/SQL v.8.1.

Report Background Engine Crashes
I have a problem with Report Background Engine. When I try running a report through forms, the Report Background Engine and the Forms Runtime hangs. And If I End Task the Forms Runtime, the forms runtime closes and the background engine shows the report properly. Now I am not able to run reports properly from the Forms.
In my coding I use RUN_PRODUCT for calling the report from the forms. The O/s is Windows 98.
Please provide me with a solution asap.Please apply latest 6i patchset and try. (Yours is very old. Latest is 6.0.8.0.24. So many bug fixes have gone in since your patchset)

How to display the output of report(9i) using Report Background Engine
Hi,
We are converting the forms and reports from 6i to 9i.
we could run the report in the browser from form using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT built-in, but we are not able to display the report output from form using the Report Background Engine.Let us know if you have any solution for this.
Regards,
Pramila.Pramila,
you have to use Reports Server called from RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(). Please see the Reports Integration whitepaper on otn.oracle.com/products/forms. You can either look it up in the Forms 10g collateral seciton or the Forms 9i collateral section.

CAN NO LONGER SHUT DOWN REPORTS BACKGROUND ENGINE
Hello all...
We are in the process of upgrading our apps to Developer 6.0.
Come to find out that the old method of shutting down the Reports
Background Engine programmatically no longer works. (i.e.
ORACLE_SHUTDOWN=Yes).
Any info would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
nullThe mDNSResponser error has been reported as a problem with "Back To My Mac" and sometimes with Bonjour. There are probably other causes as well, but that's a place to start. You could make sure those services are disabled and check the logs to see if the errors go away.
I suppose that activity like this could stall a shutdown also, but I usually see the shutdown problem with devices not behaving and allowing the system to do an orderly shutdown.
Another test method that could point you directly to the OS or a 3rd party application would be to create another user on your machine and see if that user has the same issues.
Just because something worked before doesn't mean that a recent update or other change hasn't caused a problem. Are you using a wireless connection or hardwired? If you are wireless then you could also stop or turn off the wireless connection before trying to shutdown to see if it could be part of the problem.
The trick to begin troubleshooting a problem is to remove the variables, see if something changes, and then decide what to do about it or look for help with that particular system or sub-system. -
How to close the report background engine programatically in developer 6.0?
Friends,
We have developed our application using Oracle Developer 6.0 as front end and Oracle 9iR2 as a back end.
whenever the user is opening the application one session is creating after that if he runs any report the report background engine is started and that engine also creating one session. So, unnecessarily two sessions are opening for a single application.
So, how can we close the report background engine programatically after the report displays all the records?
Moreover, when the user close the application, the report background engine is still open. the user has to close the report background engine manually.
so how can we solve this issue?
Thanks
Sathyguyi got this while searching but its not working.....
Problem Description
Starting reports using a RUN_PRODUCT on Windows platforms starts a
Reports Background Engine (RBE). After leaving the forms application the
background engine is still running and must be terminated by the user.
Solution Description
This is intendet behaviour.
To close the Background Engine programmatically use the Reports Runtime parameter
ORACLE_SHUTDOWN. E.g.
Perform the following actions to stop the RBE when closing the Forms
application:
1) Create a dummy report which only does e.g. a SELECT * FROM DUAL
This report has a DESTYPE=FILE and a DESNAME to e.g. C:\TEMP\DUMMY.OUT
2) In the POST-FORMS trigger add the following code:
DECLARE
pl_id ParamList;
BEGIN
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('dummy');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'ORACLE_SHUTDOWN',TEXT_PARAMETER,'Yes');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'PARAMFORM',TEXT_PARAMETER,'NO');
Run_product(REPORTS,'<<name dummy rapport>>',SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME,
FILESYSTEM,pl_id,NULL);
END;
Explanation
The Report Background Engine runs separately from the Forms application and
there is no direct relation between these processes. The Forms should signal
the RBE that is being closed.
When the Form is closed the POST-FORM triggers sends a dummy report to
the RBE. Since the ORACLE_SHUTDOWN=Yes parameter is used after running the
report the RBE is terminated.
A small side-effect of the solution is that a small file (5Kb) is created on
the file-system contaning the output of the dummy report. -
Reports Background Engine caused error and had to be closed
"Reports Background Engine caused error and had to be closed"
we are encountering this error when trying to run any report on some machines.with windows 2000.
we tried to login (on the machines having problems) using another windows user,
sometimes it works and sometimes not.
we also tried to reinstall the reports runtime and it never worked.
we have developer 6i, Oracle database 10g express edition.
Does anyone have a solution to this random problem ?
Thanksdear all
you can pass parameter from form to report to close report server after close report
add_parameter(pl_id, 'oracle_shutdown',text_parameter, 'Yes');
then it will be ok
good luck

Reports Background Engine in taskbar?
How do I start the Reports background engine in the taskbar. Currently i have a .bat program launching it. The user has to minimize it and close it when done. I would like to put it in the taskbar. Any help is appreciated.
Use the D2KWUTIL.PLL, attach this library to the form, if you are calling the report form the Form and then use the following in the PRE-FORM trigger
win_api_shell.winexec('d:\orant\bin\r30rbe32',WIN_API.SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE) ;
You can also check whether this is running or not using WIN_API_SESSION.Find3rdPartyApp function from the d2kwutil package -
How avoid multi reports background engine (D2K6I + patch7 C/S)
after Developer tools migrate from D2K60 to D2k6i (with patch7), if call multi reports with ASYNCHRONOUS comm mode from forms, these will have multi reports background engine will startup, so need more session will connect to database, this is my need.
So I need have method to avoid startup multi reports background engine.
Not suggest me with SYNCHRONOUS comm mode or automatic close report background engine. the above two methods are difficulty to carry through for me.
Thanks & test regards!Before developer tools migration, When run a set of reports with ASYNCHRONOUS comm mode, only one reports background engine startup, and all report as queue requests in the reports background engine, this is my need. I don't want any change because developer tools migration
Please give me your idea, Thanks again.
