Report destype=localfile problem

Question

Hi everybody,
I have the following problem:
When I execute a report in the browser like this:
http://myserver/reports/rwservlet?report=prueba.rdf&userid=a/b@c&destype=file&desformat=pdf&desname=myfile.pdf
everything goes well and the file "myfile.pdf" is generated in "myserver".
When trying to get the file in the client executing like this:
http://myserver/reports/rwservlet?report=prueba.rdf&userid=a/b@c&destype=localfile&desformat=pdf&desname=myfile.pdf
the report finishes well, as indicated in the server's queue, but the file doesn't appear in the client or in the server.
Is there anything I am doing wrong?
Just in case you give me an answer to the problem, if I submit the report from the BBDD, via the SRW package, is the server in which the BBDD the client?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Rodolfo.
First of all thank you for your answer.
Maybe it depends on the version you are working with. I work with Reports Builder 10.
If you look at the Destype System Parameter there are 7 options: screen, file, printer, mail, sysout, cache and localfile.
In the "Help" says for DESTYPE=LOCALFILE:
Valid only for rwservlet, rwclient, and rwcgi. Sends the output to a file on the client machine and forces a synchronous call.
And that is my case because I am using rwservlet.
