Reports runs faster throuth Discoverer Server than through Application

I try to run a report directly from the discoverer server. The report executed fine and in few seconds i get the results.
When i try to call the same report from the BI Application through a link the report needs a lot more time to be executed. I am waitting about 10 minutes and still don't get any results.
I am using the Discoverer 4i.
Can anybody knows why this happens?

Discoverer is available and ships as a component of Oracle Application Server. Oracle Application Server via Oracle HTTP Server provides a proxy capability to support other web servers such as Netscape iPlanet and Microsoft IIS. The proxy capability will enable client applications to directly route requests to their native web server and these then get routed to Oracle Application Server and the Oracle HTTP Server. For detailed information on support for these web servers please refer to Oracle Application Server documentation.

Does the .rep report run faster than the same program in .rdf format

Hello,
We have some reports timing out because they take too
long to bring back results. If we used the .rep file instead of
the .rdf file, will the reports run faster? Does it take very
long to compile or is it most likely the SQL needs to be tuned
for better performance?
Thanks in Advance..
Pmoore31

No, the report will not run faster. It is most likely that you
need to fine tune the SQL.

CS5 Design Premium: Will it run faster in Snow Leopard than Lepoard?

I was wondering If CS5 PS will run more quickly in Snow Leopard than it does in Leopards? Is the difference noticeable?

Yes, it can run faster in Snow Leopard, especially in 64 bit.

Connect a single Discoverer server to multiple applications?

I am using a standalone Discoverer server, originally configured to connect to a test database/eBusiness application. I would now like to connect it to another database/eBusiness application.
Is this possible to have 1 Discoverer server configured to attach to these 2 applications simultaneously?

Hi,
Yes, that is possible. You just need to configure the second database into the the tnsnames file of the apps server and copy across the .dbc file. You should then be able to select the second database when making a connection.

A scheduled Desktop Intelligence report runs indefinitely on the server...

If we delete the report through InfoView or Instance Manager, the report still appears in the Desktop Intelligence Job Server metrics. We tried pausing it first before deleting it but it does not pause the report in "running" state. The only way we are able to remove it from the Desktop Intelligence Job Server is to restart the Desktop Intelligence Job Server and CMS.
Is there a different way for this? Perhaps have the report time out or something?
FYI, I've noticed that the connection server pooling timeout setting is set to no timeout. Would setting this to a certain number solve our problem?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Voltaire Pagador

Hi Gina,
I would assume you are after the Desktop Intelligence Processing Server - new term in XI 3.1 - formerly known as DeskI report server in R2. Feel free to let me know if this is not correct.
Steps on adding a new server in CMC are all contained in XI 3.1 Administrator's guide page 170.
The document can be found in our SMP product guide area.
In addition, it has the steps on cloning a server and deleting a server for your reference.
Hope this helps.

Queries run faster under Administrator account than from "regular" users

We have OBIEE 10g used as a reporting tool against E-Business R11i. When OBI reports are run from the Administrator account, they complete in about 15 secs. When the same report , with same parameters is run from a non-administrator account, completion takes 5 mins. In this latter case, the E-Business DBA can clearly see the "expensive" query running in the E-Business database (module=nqsserver@<obi application server host>). In both cases, the results of the query are the same.
What can account for the difference in performance when the user account is changed?
TIA

Hi SVS,
Not too sure what you mean but I do know that,
1. Authentication for end-users is through MS Active Directory (to login to OBI, they enter the same password as for the Windows Domain login to their PC's).
2. Authorization is via responsibilities granted to their corresponding accounts in R11i E-Business Suite, ie the reports that they can run in OBIEE are determined by responsibilities in E-Business.
Thanks,

How data flow when SSIS packages are run on a different server than the DB server

The scenario is that i have a dedicated SQL SErver 2014 SSIS machine that executes the packages.
The database server is a separate machine with SQL Server 2008R2.
1) Running SSIS packages that transfer data within SQL Server 2008R2 (same machine)
2) Running SSIS packages that transfer data between 2 separate SQL Server servers.
How the data flow in these two cases and what resource is being used where? (cpu,disk,ram,network)
Elias

When you have a dedicated SSIS server, all data read flows to that server, is processed using the resources of that ETL server and then sent back over the network to the destination server.
It doesn't matter if source and destination are the same server. If you use a data flow, all data flows over the network twice.
The only exception is when you don't use a data flow, but only SQL statements. In that case, data flows only between source and destination.

Opening multiple reports in Crystal Reports for VS causes database connect limit to be reached. Seems to be no way to force Crystal Reports to close database connection (other than exiting application)

I am working on upgrading an application that has been in use for many years. The application is written in VB6 and I have been tasked with upgrading the current application to Crystal Reports for Visual Studio. I am using Crystal Reports for VS Version 13.0.12.1494. The system's database is a Sybase SQL Anywhere 16 database with an ODBC connection using integrated login. Each of the reports has the database connection set up from within the report. There is only once database server, so each of the reports are pointing to the same DB. The database server is currently installed as a "Personal Server" with a limit of 10 connections.
I have implemented the CR viewer as part of a COM-callable wrapper that exposes a COM interface for VB6 to interact with. Inside of my viewer component is a Winform that embeds the Crystal's Report viewer. The COM interface basically maps the basic Crystal apis to methods that the VB6 can call (i.e., Load Report, Set Field Text, Update SQL Query, etc). This architecture is working as designed and the reports are displaying correctly and responding correctly to changes in queries, etc.
The issue is that after I open 9 reports, the tenth one will respond with an error indicating that the database connection limit has been reached. The database connections used by the reports aren't released until after the application is closed. The application is designed for a secure environment that prohibits the non-administrative user from accessing the systems desktop, so asking the user tor restart the application after 10 reports isn't a viable option.
I have checked and database connection pooling is turned off for the SQL Anywhere 16 driver.
I have been digging on this for a few days and have tried adding code in the FormClosed event to close and dispose of the Report Document as follows:
ReportDocument reportDoc= (ReportDocument) crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource;
reportDoc.Close();
reportDoc.Dispose();
GC.Collect();       // Force garbage collection on disposed items
I have also tried the following (as well as maybe 20 or so other permutations) trying to fix the issue with no success.
ReportDocument reportDoc= (ReportDocument) crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource;
foreach (Table table in reportDoc.Database.Tables)
     table.Dispose();
crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = null;
reportDoc.Database.Dispose();
reportDoc.Close();
reportDoc.Dispose();
reportDoc = (ReportDocument)crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource;
GC.Collect();       // Force garabe collection on disposed items
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have been pulling my hair out on this one!

Hi Ludek,
Thanks so much for the quick reply. Unfortunately I did not have time to work on the reporting project Friday afternoon, but did a quick test this morning with some interesting results. I'm hoping if I describe what I'm doing, you can show me the error of my ways. This is really my first major undertaking with Crystal Reports.
If I simply load the report, then close and dispose, I don't hit the limit of 10 files. Note that I do not logon manually in my code as the logon parameters are all defined within the reports themselves. The logon happens when you actually view the report. Loading the report doesn't seem to actually log in to the DB.
What I did was create a very simple form with a single button that creates the WinForm class which contains the Crystal Viewer. It then loads the report, sets the ReportSource property on the CrystalReportsViewer object contained in the WInForm and shows the report. The report does show correctly, until the 10 reports limit is reached.
The relevant code is shown below. More than I wanted to post, but i want to be as complete and unambiguous as possible.
This code displays the same behavior as my earlier post (after 10 reports we are unable to create another connection to the DB).
// Initial Form that simply has a button
public partial class SlectReport : form
        public SelectReport()
            InitializeComponent();
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            ReportDocument rd = new ReportDocument();
            ReportForm report = new ReportForm();
            try
                rd.Load(@"Test.rpt");
                report.ReportSource = rd;
                report.Show();
         catch (Exception ex)
              MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
// The WinForm containing the Crystal Reports Viewer
    public partial class ReportForm : Form
        public ReportForm()
            InitializeComponent();
        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
            this.crystalReportViewer1.RefreshReport();
            this.FormClosed += new FormClosedEventHandler(ReportForm_FormClosed);
        void ReportForm_FormClosed(object sender, FormClosedEventArgs e)
            ReportDocument rd;
            rd = (ReportDocument)crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource;
            rd.Close();
            rd.Dispose();
        public object ReportSource
            set { crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = value; }
Again, any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Access Jboss server.log through application

Dear all,
i am using jboss application server.
In my implementation place, no permission to see the application server pc,
So, if i want to see the jboss server.log file,
is there any option to see server.log file through web application.
Plz suggest.
Thanx,.
Rams.

Use java.io.File in combination with ServletContext#getRealPath().
There is no guarantee that it will work, you're dependent on the disk file system level read permissions for Java. If it is disallowed, you will get an 'Access denied' IOException during read.

Financial Reporting batch reports run slow at random

FR reports version: 11.1.2.1
This is a summary of our environment:
-Linux server where Hyperion batch reports run
-Linux (SLES-11) server where Essbase resides
-Windows 2008 server where Hyperion Print Service and GhostScript reside
This is what we observed this morning:
Batch reports are executed serially by a master shell script.
One of these reports takes 30+ minutes to complete. The exact same report usually completes in less than 3 minutes.
This problem occurs 3 to 5 times each morning, and not necessarily on the same report.
While the report shows ‘Running’ in the Hyperion Batch Scheduler, there is no process present on reports server. There is no active session on Essbase. There is no active print process on the print server.
Eventually, the report completes successfully and the pdf file is present on reports server.
We haven’t been able to determine where the process is during the period that it appears to be stuck. The best we can do is to look at the status on the Batch Scheduler. It is not a practical option for us to schedule everything using the Batch Scheduler on a daily basis.(this is what Oracle is suggesting, by the way).
Has anybody experienced similar FR batch reports slowness?
Thanks.

XServe fans running fast and loud

Good morning
I have searched the information base and tried a few suggestions without success. Hoping for another solution here.
I have an Intel based XServe (2008) (OS 10.6.8) whose fans are running faster (and therefore louder) than they have previously. This follows on the heels of a power outage (two of them actually) here at school, though the server is behind a UPS. The system identifier light is also blinking in a particular pattern - 4 flashes and a pause repeating.
The server is up and running, teachers are connecting to it just fine, the RAID is intact and online, the drives all look good according to Disk Utility. So, functionally, everything looks OK - the fans are just running faster and louder than before - noticibly louder than the other Intel XServe in the rack. The server is at the top of the enclosed rack with a space below it as it has been for the last 4 years.
This summer I took all the XServes out of the rack, opened them up, and blew the dust out of them (including a moth - truly a bug in the system), so the all the airways are clean and clear.
I have tried the suggestions I could find on this forum:
     restarted a bunch of times
     shut down and disconnect everything (including power) for a period of time
     reset the PMU/SMC or whatever it is called doing the front panel buttons with the blue lights on the lower row
     reset the PMU/SMC or whatever it is called by holding down the power button while disconnected from power
I have installed iStat Pro and the temperatures are averaging around mid- to upper- 30°C and the fans are running around 3000 RPM . The temperatures aren't signifcantly different that the other XServe, but the fans are running about twice the speed.
I had to reformat the RAID earlier this weekend and copy over the data files from backup and reassign permissions, but the server was running quietly after that was all finished. It seems to be post-powerbump that the fans became noisy.
Sorry for the long post, but I tried to include all the pertinent information. I would have tossed in photos and videos if I could have!
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
TIA
Greg

Did a little more searching about setting up LOM on the XServe and I think I have it figured out now.
I assigned a unique (different) IP address to Network 1 in the LOM dialogue box in Configure Server menu of Server Monitor since I only have Ethernet 1 enabled and linked to a switch using a unique (different) IP address for network traffic between the XServe and my clients.
I can now see (via Server Monitor remotely) that I have a dead blower in my fan array which, upon closer inspection, is also evident in the iStatPro display (one fan running at 18 RPM). Hence the blinking system identifier light and the other fans running faster and harder (and noisier).
Oddly enough, I have a replacement fan array in a box of XServe spare parts. I now have a weekend task.
Thanks for all the information to be found and the people participating in this forum. Love it.

Crystal report run from ASP code significantly slower than when run in CRS

We have CRS XI R2. I developed a report that contains several on-demand sub-reports. The report and sub-reports are very fast when run directly from CRS. However, when I run from ASP (users run a link from the intranet), it takes 4 times longer (1 second on CRS, vs. 5-10 seconds on intranet). The report takes longer, bringing up a sub-report takes longer and paging through sub-reports take longer. What can be done to improve the speed of the report that is using the ASP code? I used a sample program provided at this support site to develop the report and it is pretty basic code. The only time I have a problem is when I have many sub-reports. Since they are on-demand, I do not know why this would matter.

This has been created as an incident with SAP support. Things that you will want to check is making sure that you handle the postback to the code as you do not need to run your entire code on every postback. This will help performance after the original load.
One other thing is to compare performance with the viewer within Infoview that uses the same backend server as your application, ie PSReportFactory uses the page server, so you'll want to test with the DHTML viewer. RAS code (reportclientdocument) uses the Report Application Server so you will want to test with the Advanced DHTML viewer.

SSRS report running very slow but query is very fast in SSMS

I am running a very basic report. I am just retrieving some data from a table and I am using a parameter in the Where clause of the query. The query runs fast (in less than 5 secs) if I hardcode the parameter in the SSRS query but if it's left as a dynamically
chosen parameter the query takes over 5 minutes to render. I have read a little about "Parameter Sniffing" but I am not sure if that applies to my case since I am only using a TSQL query and not a SP.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
PS: My query looks like below:
Select Col1, Count(*)
From Tbl1
Where Col2 = @Para1
Group By Col1
KK

Hi Kk,
Is your data retrieval takes time or report rendering takes time? Run this query in your report server database to get the above two. Select * From Executionlog2
Check the timings data retrieval time, processing time, and report rendering time.
If data retrieval takes time,
Give some default values to filters (parameters).
If parameter rendering takes time
Choose different options for parameter selection. Instead of multiselction of parameter, use like etc.
Let me know which causing this problem after running the SQL profiler or executionlog query so that I can help you more. Or you can use SQL profiler to check what query takes more time.
Hope this helps.

Strange problem... Query runs faster, but report runs slow...

Hi Gurus,
We are using Report 10g on 10g Application server and solaris. we created a report on a table which has 10,000 rows. The report has 25 columns. when we run this query in Toad it took 12 sec for fetching all these 10,000 rows
But when we run the report with Destype = 'FILE' and Desformat = 'DELIMITEDDDATA', it is taking 5 to 8 minutes
to open in excel ( we concatenated mimetype=vnd-msexcel at the end of the url if the Destype=FILE). We removed the layout in the report as it is taking 10 to 15 mins to run to Screen with Desformat=HTML/PDF(formating pages taking more time). We are wondering why DELIMITEDDATA format is taking long time as it runs only query.
Does RWSERVLET take more time of writing the data to the Physical file in the cache dir? Our cache size is 1 GB. we have 2 report servers clustered. Tracing is off.
Please advise me if there are any report server settings to boost the performance.
Thanks alot,
Ram.

SSRS Report loads faster on the reporting server compared to user's browser

If I run the same report from the same URL for my SSRS report it runs faster on the reporting server's IE compared to the user's IE.
If I run it in the reporting server's IE it takes 3 seconds and in my browser it takes 10 secs.
Is there a way to speed up loading the report on my IE?

Hi curiousnoob,
As per my understanding, when we run a report outside the report server, it spends more time compare to the report server can be caused by the following reasons:
We should connect to report server, then retrieve data from data sources for the report. This should spend some time when we run a report outside the report server.
The different IE browsers on those two servers.
Net Speed can also cause this issue.
So if we want to speed up loading the report, we can refer to the last two reasons.
Hope this helps.
