Reports 10g with Forms 9i

I want to use Reports Server 10g Installed on one machine from Forms Server 9i installed on other machine.
Is it possible and if yes then how?

Frank, wouldn't RUN_REPORT_OBJECT run a 9i report? I would think it would run a report in the same 9iAS home environment as for Forms 9i.
If so, you could skip RUN_REPORT_OBJECT and use web.show_document to run the report in the 10g environment directly, specifying the full URL to run the report instead of just showing the output from cache. Something like this I mean:
web.show_document('http://server:port/reports/rwservlet?server=repserver&report=report.rep&userid=un/pw@db&destype=cache&desformat=PDF');

Reports 10g with forms & PL/SQL lib

Hi,
I have reports that I am calling from Forms 10g. The report contains some pl/sql procedures stored in a library.
When I call the report from forms10g I get an error containing the following:
"REP-1247: Background is deprecated. Reports contain some uncompiled PL/SQL functions or program units"
Eventhough all programs and Libraries were compiled and generated.
If I take the program units from the Library and put them inside the report's program unit, all works fine and the report is generated.
On some other PCs I don't get this error however, the program units of the library are not called.
What is the problem?
Please someone help me it's very urgent.
Thank you,

How to genetare reports(ssrs) with form library's data in sharepoint 2010

Hi,
How to genetare reports (ssrs) with form library's data in sharepoint 2010.I am saving infopath(2010) xml form data in form library.I have 500 and more forms in the form library( more forms can come in future).How to generate reports from this xml data (i
want to make it automate)? Reports should get updated automatically when any changes made to data and if new form entered in the library.
Please suggest possible solutions.I can not go for code base solution.( somthing SSIS, BCS or web service ....etc or anything else will be fine)
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to generate SSRS report with form library in SharePoint 2010.
In order to use the data stored on the InfoPath form, you need to add the controls on the form to be columns in SharePoint(This is the OOTB way without code).
You can add the control during the publish process:
Then when you create the SSRS report using the form library as the data source, you can use the fields just as the fields created in SharePoint.
There is a tool called InfoPath DB in codeplex, you can have a look at it.

Migration Designer 6i to Designer 10g with Forms generation

Has anyone done a migration from 6i Designer to Designer 10g with Forms generation?

There is a newer version of Headstart available, that version (6.5.4.0.1) is also certified for Oracle Developer Suite 10gR2. I can't tell you if it is the latest version.
Headstart is a product of Oracle Consulting. You have to purchase it from Oracle Consulting. Ask for iDevelopment Accelerators Package.

Calling Reports 10g from Forms 10g without an app server

Hi
I have Forms 10g, and for development/testing purposes I am able to run a form in my local machine using the standalone OC4J. I needn't to deploy the form to test it.
I can do the same with Reports 10g -- run a report in my local machine without an app server.
However, I could not manage to call a Report from a Form that way, without an app server. It does not seem possible -- is it? Is there a way to set this up using the standalone OC4J or something like that?
Thanks
Luis

Hi
Sorry for the late reply.
Here's how you start the report server from windows XP machine.
1. Choose a unique name for the report server. Eg. <your_pc_name>_repserver
2. As the report server runs in its own process, it can be started by the following command, accessible from the \ bin directory of the
Oracle Developer Suite or Oracle Application Server 10g installation.
rwserver –install <server_name> . It is now treated as a windows service and hence you can stop/start or restart from the services menu.
3. If you want specific settings for your report server, look for the <rep_server_name>.conf file under <orahome>/reports/conf directory, after starting the server from above command. This file is created by oracle automatically, once the rep server gets started.
For more info on this, please refer to white papers on the Forms and reports integration, found on the otn->Forms.
Hope this helps

Form & reports 10g VS Form & reports 6 ???

Hi All,
We have customers that running Form & reports 10g application and they (must) use IAS 10g for deployment.
But now they are considering to downgrade to Form & Reports 6 (client-server). So they put the Form & Reports to a folder on a server and map the folder to the clients.
Actually what are the benefits of running Form and Reports 10g on IAS and Browser compared to running Form & Reports 6 on client server mode ?
Thank you very much,
xto

Hi Xto,
If you use Forms 10g in web mode, thin clinets can be used and hardware cost can be reduced. Only you need to have good application server.
And you can access the application from browser and no need of installation/setup in client machiens. so maintanance cost also can be reduced.
These are some of benefits while running in web mode.

Discoverer Viewer(4i) to run Discoverer-reports(10g) with Apps(11.5.0)

We are running Discoverer Viewer(4i) to run Discoverer-Workbooks(10g) with Apps(11.5.0) but we are facing error like 'Unable to fetch workbook' .I guess this is b'coz EUL created in 10g not getting compatible with 4i Discoverer Viewer.
If this is the problem what is my next step?
Can anyone plz help me in detail.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
You would need to upgrade everything to the same level if you want to open Discoverer 10g workbooks. This means your EUL will need to be upgraded and you will need to abandon the 4i server and upgrade to the 10g server.
I would encourage you to do so anyway because 10g is much better than 4i.
Best wishes
Michael

Report 10g parameter form Error

Hi,
While calling a report I am getting the following error.
REP-546: Warning: The value of restricted LOV parameter TOPROFIT is not among the selectable values.
When I call the same report through another PC it displays parameter form.
I am using Report Builder 10g.
Kindly help in resolving the issue.
Edited by: babarbaig82 on Sep 26, 2012 4:34 AM

Hi,
I need more details.
1- Are you running that report from 2 different machines using Reports Builder? or Reports Server?
2- If running with Reports Builder, is it the same report? or a different version of the report?
Any other details that you think can clarify issue further.
Thanks, Roberto

Missing points + error when attempting to report them with form

Heya, I made a substantial purchase (multiple appliances) on the website on June 15 and the points aren't showing up in any way (pending or other). When I try to fill in the form for missing points, I get this message "The information entered doesn't match our records. If the purchase was made in the past few hours, please try again later.". And, obviously, the purchase was made many weeks ago, so that's not the problem. Where do I go from here? Thanks.

Good afternoon jblob, and welcome to the Best Buy forum,
After looking over your information using the email address you registered with the forum, I can confirm that the purchase in-question is attached to your My Best Buy account. That is why you have been encountering errors while trying to report it as "missing" on BestBuy.com. You will not see points emerge as pending until after the items you purchased have been shipped or delivered, and once those points are pending, they should officially post within 20 days.
If points have not officially posted to your My Best Buy account 20 days after the final delivery or if you have any additional program related questions, then please do not hesitate to send me a private message and I will see what I can do to help. You can send a private message by clicking on the blue button in my signature that is labeled "Private Message."
Thank you for posting and for being a My Best Buy member.

Oracle Reports 10g with rwclient

Hi All,
I m getting the following error when i try to run the report with rwclient.
REP-0177: Error while running in remote server
Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file.
REP--1870655474:
And i m able to execute the report successfully using rwrun.
All possible solutions or suggestions are welcome.

Looks like this a known problem in 9.0.4 per MetaLink note 280717.1 - Dynamic Destination Using AfterPform Trigger Not Working In 9i. There is no indication of a better workaround in 10g Rel. 2.

Oracle Reports 10g with Weblogic Server 10.3

Hello every body
I have ADF web fusion application in JDeveloper 11, I builded by reports using Oracle Reports 10, also I'm Deploying my project to Weblogic Server 10.3
Now, How could I invoke my Reports from JDeveloper ?
1st: Can I deploy my Reports (JSP Report paper layout) to Weblogic 10.3 and How ?
2nd: How Could I pass parameters from my Application (Builded usingJjDeveloper 11) to my reports ?
Thank you very much

I'm not sure if Reports 10 is certified on WLS 10.3 - you might want to check with the Oracle Reports guys on the Reports forum (or with Oracle support).
That said - when Fusion Middleware 11g will come out you'll have a single platform that will run both your reports and your ADF application on the same server.
In terms of invoking your reports and passing parameters - you can just use the URL way as described in the publishing reports manual to activate the report on the report server.
Link it to your application with a goLink component.

Oracle Portal, Application Express, Oracle Forms/Reports 10g - which one?

Hi,
I have Oracle 10g database and Application Express installed on one linux box.
second linux box has Oracle HTTP server running from where i call the htmldb pages.
3rd linux box has Oracle Application Server 10.1.2 installed along with SSO, Portal 10.1.4 , Forms Server etc.
Now, i see there are 3 ways i can develop web applications
1. using Application Express and http server which is very basic and simple.
2. using Oracle Forms/Reports 10g and forms/reports server
3. Oracle Portal 10.1.4 in Application Server 10.1.2
Can someone guide me, which one of the above 3 is worth sticking on forever for developing web applications. i am really not sure which one of the above is best for Web developement in terms of long term planning. and i believe all 3 of the above can be integrated with Oracle SSO for authentication.
Can someone guide me please to select one of the above and can you explain me why for my better understanding of the different tools?
Thanks,
Philip.

Hi Philip.
If you already have Oracle Portal, I think that portal is the best solution.
Portal can be integrated with others applications using SSO.
Oracle portal have a lot of features that help you to develop web applications.
If portal does not offer what you want, you can develop your own portlets using java or plsql.
Take a look at the default home page of oracle portal.
Look better the features that portal offer to you.

Report with Form Passing date to form from report issue

Hi All ,
I got stuck up in the below issue .Can anyone point out the issue behind it and how to get rid of this.
I have created a report page with form page .The report page have 2 column identified as conjugate primary key.the col1 is varchar2 and col2 is date .
The report page have one link on col1 field which is passing the Item_value for both col1 and col2 to form page .
In the DB level the col2 data type is date (for e.g : 26/07/2007 07:08:56) .But the probem is when we are clicking on the link of col1 it is displaying error like Error like ORA-01403: no data found .
But if the data in DB is only in format of DD/MM/YYYY removing the timestmap the link is working fine and returing data for other fields in the form page .
Could anyone pls pointed out the problem and let us know the issue.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Deba

Hi Deba,
I suppose your problem is due to the : in the time.
You're passing these values with the url I suppose? Have a look how APEX generates/constructs the url, it uses : to separate things.
I'm not sure why you want a date in a Primary Key?
Thanks,
Dimitri
