Report server engine problem.

Whe i try to run report i get the message "Report backgroung engine encountered the problem and needs to close. Sorry for inconvenicence". after that the appication freeze and then we need to abruptly close the application.

Check log files for error messages.

Oracle Apps Report error "Oracle Reports Server CGI - The Reports Server Engine terminated abnormally."

Hi ,
I have modified layout of one existing custom report.
I have added 3 columns in the report , Now when I execute the report sometimes it gets executed with the newly added columns and sometimes it errors out with below error.
Error: The requested URL was not found, or cannot be served at this time.

Any pointers in this regards will be appreciated.
Thanks

I found there were some srw.message statement ( used for debugging purpose) were there , when I removed those statements. This error was gone.

Report server engine (9.0.2.0.3)

Hi all,
I would like to know whether the Report server Engine is multitasking or not. I installed Oracle application server 9.0.2.03 on a NT2000 environment, and I have two server engine running. If I have 4 or more user requests and if the first report takes long time to retrieve the data from the database, does the server engine attends to another request or does the engine waits for the first report to get over before attending the second request.
Frequently I am getting the following message, while running report with 2 sessions. (even though my report should not take more than 1 min)
Running the report Formatting page 1. Please wait.(report format is PDF)
And to come out of this situation, I need to restart the report server.
If i try to cancel the job, I get a message
'Cannot kill job with Job ID REP-59068:Bad Engine name:null'
Thanks and regards.

hello,
an engine can only process one job at any given time. out of the box the reports server is configured to run one reports engine and one URL engine.
if you want to increase the number of report engines, modify the minEngines and maxEngines parameter in the server configuration file.
a rule-of-thumb is you can have 4x the number of CPUs in your machine. of course you can have less or more than that. but you might run into disadvantages where more engines will actually use up too much resources and result in less performance.

The Reports Server Engine terminated abnormally

Hi,
I created report in Reports 6i. When I used this report on my PC through web, it is ok. When I used this report on the AIX through web, server return this message "Oracle Reports Server CGI - The Reports Server Engine terminated abnormally". Where do I find detailed description about this error.
Thanks
Rene Kana
Enviroment:
9i IAS 1.0.2.2 on AIX 5.1
My PC:
W2k, Reports 6i, ReportServices 6.0.8.11.2

Hi Rene Kana
You can turn on the tracing options in the server configuration file and then look at the tracefile to anlayze the details of the error. This could also be related to printer configuration , please make sure you have a valid printer set up on AIX.

I. Brief summary on the architecture of Reports Server, CGI and Reports Servlet
=================================================================================
In order to understand the causes of the error "Unable to communicate with the
Reports Server", let's first briefly review the Reports Runtime Engines, Reports
Server, the Reports CGI, and Reports Servlet architecture.
There are 4 important layers in Reports Server architecture which should be
understood in order to clearly understand the error "Unable to communicate with
the Reports Server" :
1) The Runtime Engines : This is the main layer where the reports are actually
executed. On unix systems there are "rwrun60" and on NT systems there are
"rwrun60.exe" processes.
2) The Reports Server : The Reports Server recieves the job request and queues
it. When one of its runtime engines becomes available, it sends the
command line to that runtime engine for execution. On Unix systems it is
the "rwmts60" executable and on NT systems it is "rwmts60.exe".
3) The Reports CGI : The Reports Web CGI passes the request to the Reports Server.
The Reports CGI or Servlet converts the request to a command line that can be executed by the Reports Server and
submits it to the specified Reports Server. On Unix platforms this executable
is "rwcgi60" and on NTs it is "rwcgi60.exe.
4) The Reports Servlet : Its functionality and function is just the same as "Reports CGI", but it is
a program written in Java as difference to the CGI program (which is
written in C programming language).
The Reports Server may be running on the same server with the CGI program (or
servlet) OR may reside totally on another machine which does not necessarily have
the same Operating System. For instance CGI may reside in a Windows NT machine
while the Reports server may reside on a Unix box, or any other combination with
Unix-Linux-NT-2000, etc.
The reports are called with a URL similar to below with the CGI :
http://fully.qualified.server.name:PORT/dev60cgi/rwcgi60.exe?server=<REPSERVER>&other_parameters=...........
where fully.qualified.server.name is the name of the server where the Reports CGI
reside, and <REPSERVER> is the name of the server.
II. Sources of errors encountered when running a report with Reports Server
============================================================================
The Reports Web CGI (or the Reports Servlet) makes a call to the Reports Server
and asks it to place the output into some destination (defined by DESTYPE and
DESNAME parameters), then gives back the necessary response to the calling
program. For example if the DESTYPE is "cache", then the Reports server generates
the report to a file in a temporary place and gives it back to CGI and the CGI gives
it back to the calling program. Otherwise, if the DESTYPE is "file", the Reports Server
generates the report output to the requested file and the CGI replies back the
following message : "Report output was successfully written to requested
destination.".
If there is any error in this process, the related error message is returned. The
possible sources of errors can be categorized as follows :
1) The errors that are returned from Reports Server; like the Reports Server can
not find the requested RDF file or the report may be run to file and the
directory where the reports output is asked to be placed does not occur or
similar errors. (Usually the REP-XXXX errors)
2) Another possible cause of error is the errors returned by the RDBMS to the
Reports Server, for example a table not found error or things like that. Of
course from the CGI point of view these errors are again transmitted from the
Reports Server but in fact the error originates from the RDBMS. (Usually the
ORA-XXXX errors)
3) Another possible cause of errors is the CGI itself, for example when the CGI
executable can not connect to the requested Reports Server, then we get the
famous "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server". In this document we will
diagnose the common reasons of this last error.
III. How the CGI (or the Reports Servlet) communicates with the Reports Server
===============================================================================
Having said that "Oracle Reports Server CGI - Unable to communicate with the
Reports Server." error is returned back from the CGI itself, let's discuss the
issue of how the Reports CGI connect to the Reports Server. The name of the
Reports Server given in the URL with "server=....." parameter is, in fact, just
a special tnsnames alias, similar to aliases for database connect strings. As it is
important for the CGI to resolve the alias, the CGI needs to know the HOST name (or the
IP) of the machine where the Reports Server is running and the port on which the
Reports Server is listening. So a typical Reports Server alias is defined as follows :
REP60_<MACHINE>=(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = <MACHINE>)(PORT = <PORT>))
This is defined in tnsnames.ora file, and the sqlnet.ora file is also used in
the name resolving operation.
IV. Possible reasons which lead to "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server" error.
==========================================================================================
The possible reasons for the "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server" error :
1) Reports Server is up and running :
Make sure that the Reports Server is really running on the specified server
and listening on the specified port. For details have a look at above
explanations for tnsnames alias of the reports server. And because of this the
CGI could not establish a connection to the Reports Server.
2) tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora problems :
As described above, the CGI resolves the details for the reports server using
the "tnsnames.ora" and "sqlnet.ora" files. There may be a problem with them,
here are the possible configuration problems :
a) There is no alias in the tnsnames.ora file for this Reports Server
b) The CGI looks into the wrong directory for the "tnsnames.ora" and "sqlnet.ora"
files. By default the CGI checks the $ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin directory for
these scripts, where the $ORACLE_HOME is the home of the Forms & Reports
installation. Please note that in a typical 9iAS 1.0.X installation there
are two ORACLE_HOME's, one is for the iAS and the other is for the tools,
usually the home for the tools is a directory with name "806" on NT and
"6iserver" on unix systems. By defining TNS_ADMIN in the environment, one
can override the search path for these two files.
The TNS_ADMIN variable can be defined in one of the following places :
i) In the environment : On MS Windows platforms check the "Settings
--> Control Panel --> System". On NTs check the environment TAB and in
Win2K systems check the "Environment Variables" button on Advanced tab.
ii) In "6iserver.conf" file. Details are as follows : The main configuration
file for Apache server is "httpd.conf" file which resides in
$IAS_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf directory. In this file there is a line to
include "oracle_apache.conf" and in this "oracle_apache.conf" file
there is a line to include "$ORACLE_HOME/conf/6iserver.conf" file. And
in this file the TNS_ADMIN variable could be defined as follows :
SetEnvIf Request_URI "rwcgi60" TNS_ADMIN=c:\orant\network\ADMIN
Please note that by defining it this way, the TNS_ADMIN will only be defined
for "rwcgi60" calls, so the other parts of the 9iAS will not be affected by
this setting.
c) In sqlnet.ora the "names.default_domain" is set but in tnsnames.ora the
domain is not defined in the alias description. For example if the
"names.default_domain=world" is present and active in "sqlnet.ora" file
then in the "tnsnames.ora" the alias of the reports server should also have
the ".world" extension appended at the end. And another cause is of course
the vice versa for this. If there is no "names.default_domain" is defined
in the "sqlnet.ora" then the alias in "tnsnames.ora" should not have the
domain extension.
Another important point that should be checked is, if TNS_ADMIN is defined
as described above then the search path is as follows, first the directory
defined by TNS_ADMIN is searched, if the "tnsnames.ora" file is not found in
this directory then $ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin is checked. (And on unix systems
/var/opt/oracle is also checked). These directories are only checked if the file
is not present, so if the "tnsnames.ora" file is present in TNS_ADMIN directory
but the alias is not present, then the other directories are not checked at all.
Let us assume that the tnsnames.ora file is present in the TNS_ADMIN directory but
there is no "sqlnet.ora" files here, then the sqlnet.ora file is checked in
$ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin directory, which could cause the same problem if the
"names.default_domain" is defined in this file.
All the above will result in, CGI to unable to resolve the alias in tnsnames.ora
file so it will not be able to establish a connection to the Reports Server.
3) Wrong "ORACLE_HOME" setting :
Wrong ORACLE_HOME setting. This is usually the case for Reports Servlet,
because the environment settings are defined in "jserv.properties" file for the
servlets and the setting here will effect both the Reports Servlet and the
setting for Oracle JSP and other servlets. So the other servlets or Oracle JSP
may need to set ORACLE_HOME to home of HTTP server while the reports server needs
it to be set to the TOOLS_HOME directory. In this case the best alternative is
not to set ORACLE_HOME in this directory and leave it to registry or defined the
ORACLE_HOME in "6iserver.conf" file just like the TNS_ADMIN defined above. For
details please have a look at the following document :
Note 179609.1 "Getting an error Unable to communicate with the Reports Server
using RWSERVLET"
4) Effect of parameter "maxconnect" :
Another common case for this error is that the CGI request reaches the Reports Server but
the Reports Server refuses connection. The main cause for this case is, that the Reports Server
configuration parameter "maxconnect" is defined too low, there are long running reports on the
server or the server is too busy at that time. Usually a second try some
later time results in a successful connection. If this is the case, the end user
may think that the problem is occasional. For details on this case please
have a look at the following document :
Note 125265.1 "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server"
5) Passing very large parameters to reports server :
Another known reason for this error is, if you are passing large parameters
to the Reports Server which exceeds sqlnet transmission blocks then the request may
end up with this error. To test it try with small parameter values. If you hit
this case, the solution is to increase the SDU (Session data unit size) and the TDU
(Transport unit data size) parameters in tnsnames.ora file, for details please
have a look at the following document :
Note 197358.1 "Passing large parameters to Reports show up a Reports Server
error"
6) A case specific to OAS 4.0.8.2 :
If you are using OAS instead of iAS, and the error appeared after
upgrading to 4.0.8.2 then this is caused because the 4.0.8.2 is using RSF
(Required Support Files) version 8.1.6 and the Reports 6i is using 8.0.6 and the
two could not reside in the same ORACLE_HOME directory. So the solution for this
problem is to create a new batch file and use it from which the actual CGI
executable is called. For details please see the following document :
Note 116754.1 "After applying OAS 4.0.8.2 CGI and Cartridge cannot communicate
to report server"
7) A case specific to WEBDB version 2.1.0.9.3 :
Another known case for this error is with WEBDB version 2.1.0.9.3 or less.
If you are using these old versions of WEBDB as HTTP listener, please have a
look at the following document :
Note 95426.1 "URL Not Found When Calling Oracle Developer Report from WebDB Site"

On Windows you can create a Report Services:
rwserver -install server=repserverYou have to choose different names for all servers, like your collegue cannot create a server with the same name. You can start/stop this Report server in Services (control panel). Configuration files can be found under $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf

Report Server Engine freezes for 30 seconds and more

Hi all,
I have problems with Report Server and reports execution.
Customer complains slowness in the execution in many reports that were fast.
Before: 4-5 seconds
Now : 25-30 seconds
I turned on server and engine trace and i saw that no log is written for 25 seconds in a report execution.
My environment:
DB: Oracle 11R2
Report Server: 10.1.2.3.0
I changed some parameters in server.conf:
cacheSize= "200" (from default value 20 - cache dir contains 950files for 150Mb)
initEngine= "1"
maxEngine= "4"
diagnosis value="yes" (to write .dig file)
<trace traceFile="E:\REPORTS\Log\reportServer.trc" traceOpts="trace_all" traceMode="trace_replace" traceModule="all" />
maxConnect="120" (from default value 20)
The SQL query takes 0.2 seconds.
Here the logs:

Custom Paper Size : Migrating from 6i to 10g report server engine

Hi,
pardon my bad english !!
I'm studying to migrate form/reports 6i to 10G. In report 6i we have reports with custom paper size ("A5" format that is half of "A4", 15x21cm).
In report server 6i environment (Win2000 server) we have done this configuration.
- We configure printer; one input tray has "custom" format.
- We create an OS user (es. CustRep);this user has a "default printer" that has input tray with "custom" format as default tray.
- We create a new report server (es. CustRepSrv); this report server start as service with CustRep user credentials.
- Every report (PDF format) generated and printed (destype=printer,desname="My Printer") with CustRepSrv report server get custom format as paper size and so fit with Custom tray definition on the printer.
Can I do the same in report server 10G environment ??
Thanks
Andrea

Report Server service problem

Hi all champions.
I have installed 9iAs R1 on windows 2k.My form server is running well, but there is a problem with Report server and its service is not ruuning (error 186).
What could be the tns entry for folders 806 and iSuites?
Early reply will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Do you have the repository connection configured? This is in the 806_home\report60\server\server_name.ora file with repositoryconn= setting.
If you do, make sure you can connect to that database with the user name/password you have configured. Connect from 806_home\bin\sqlplus to check this.
Are you on the latest patch?
Did you configure the service to not interact with the desktop? If not, you should change it to not interact.

Report Server Installation Problem

hi
we have installed java web server and dev6 server and deployed our application (which
was coded on Forms 5 later converted to 6) it is working fine in the web browser
but we have problem in running developer report server as nt service. we have followed the same steps as stated on oracle documentation.
we have added all the necessary entries in the registry and created an entry at tnsnames.ora, then installed the oracle report server at the command prompt - the service was added. upto this point it was quite okay. when we startup the report service we are getting "Oracle Report Server Service retuned server specfic error 186"
our oracle server runs on diffrent system
whose ip address is 129.1.2.203 and instance name is O8E. the web server and developer server runs on workstation and it got the following entry on the tnsnames.ora:
rserver.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(Host = 129.1.2.201)
(Port = 1521)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = O8E)
we have checke-up all the trouble-shooting tips given in the documentation, but all in vain.
can anybody suggest some tips on this
thanks in advance
regds.,

The tns entry you show for rserver is a DATABASE entry (it has a SID) which would explain why this doesn't work - the reports server entry is shorter.
Please refer to the Reports Server Configuration whitepaper, available on OTN (under the 6.0 collateral) which provides in-depth instructions for setting this up. In Reports 6i the installer does all this for you.

Oracle Report Server wierd problem

Hi All,
I am facing very wierd problem with oracle report server.
I am using Oracle Report Server 10g R1. The problem I am facing is as under:
There is custom parameter form where user enters report filter criteria and press a button to create the report.
The problem is that report is giving output some times and sometimes it gives no output at all. Both the times, the parameters passed by user are same. The report executions are done for both runs one after other. We have tried to look in report server trace file but could not find anything. When report server fails to give any data in the report, at the same time, we have tried to execute the report query on SQL prompt and it did return data.
Can any one give any hint where the problem could be ?
Thanks,
Ramchandra Jetwani

Hi,
When i used to get only one page the options like facing, continuous facing are disabled. And displays only single page.
These options are enabled only when there are multiple pages in pdf.
One more thing i found that it happens when I first view the report as pdf it displays
all the pages, then i change the display format to csv and again when i change
the format to pdf the problem starts.
And when I will restart the report server service, it works fine again until i wont view it in CSV format.

SQL Server 2008 R2 Report Server Credential Problem

All
When our report viewer connects to the remote report server, we got HTTP 401 unauthorized problem.
When we copy the report url into IE, it asks for user name and password. If I typed in the report server's windows credential, I can access the report. I don't want to reveal my server's credential. So I tried to configure the report server to no credential
I found some links talking about configuring SSRS for unattended account
I configured one. It seems that this account must be a valid windows account of the report server.
Then I logged in Report Manager remotely and configured the data source to the following options:
Windows integrated security
Credentials are not required
It does not help.
Does anyone have any suggestion?
What is the right way authenticate client to remote access the report server?
Thanks,
FL

My winforms ReportViwer still failed to connect to the Report server. The server is on a win 2008
server R2.
Both client and server computers are not on any domain, but connected to the same wifi network. I disabled loopback check as MSFT kb suggested (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896861)
Does anyone know how to solve this logon issue?
