Reports Server in 9IAS

HI
I've installed 9ias,
I have the infrastructure in a Home,and the forms&reports in another.
I've executed a rwserver -install ,the service is showing in the NT services list,but,when trying to start it,it's crashing,I don't know why....I haven't installed any patchsets,can this be a reason?
Thanks

Never mind,
Seems to me that I've made some updates to the conf file that where crashing the server.
Reinstalled a new one,and enbled tracing..the server is still blocking when is starting up,even if one engine is succesfully started..
Here is the output from the server.trc file:

Unable to connect to the report server 9iAS

I have a similar problem to the FRM-41213 when trying to initiate a Report_Job_Id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(Report_Id, pl_id) through a form.
I have tested everything on my LOCAL 9iDS environment which goes through a LOCAL report server (rwserver -install myserver) and it works.
Now, I am trying to deploy it to the 9iAS server on a Windows 2000 server. When I call my form everything appears to be working fine, however, I never get a connection to the report server and the applet hangs.
Any one have any idea what I should check to insure that I have my 9iAS server setup to run Reports though 9iAS or what this problem might be?
Thanks
Hyman

Check if the reports server on 9ias is up and running. You might check out metalink note 212551.1 if it is not. The "Second Solution for Issue 1" solved the problem for me.
Begin quotation:
"This can be accomplished by removing the <security> tagging from the <repserver>.conf file, where <repserver> represents the reports server name. This file is found in the Developer ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf directory."
End quotation.
Hope this helps

How can I keep a newly created reports server running?

I have had to create a second reports server under 9ias Rel.2. This server is in addition to the out-of-the-box server installed with 9ias Rel. 2. I created the new server logged on to a Solaris session using the command rwserver.sh server=<new name>. The creation went just fine. I am able to use the new server just fine, EXCEPT if I log off the Solaris session used for the startup of the new server.
I know this sounds similar to the problem of the default server going down if the unix session is logged off. However, I solved that problem by installed XVFB, using a DISPLAY of other than 0, and changing the opmn.xml file. All that works great. But, it does not seem to have an effect on the new reports server I created.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get around this issue for reports servers other than the default?

I had similar prob. but with vnc instead of xvfb.(similar product)
I put the startup of vnc in the same script as the start of the rwserver.. it looks like :
export DISPLAY=servername:12.0
vncserver startup
wait 5 secs
set oracle homes etc..
rwserver.sh server=myrepserver
I start this script using the unix nohup command :
nohup startrepserver.sh &
the vnc server starts and the reports server starts..
I use a different port (12, 13,..) for reports/discoverer/forms compilation

IASR2 BI Report Server's Servlet Version?

Hi,
We are planning to implement Filters in Report Server (to filter rwservlet) which is available from version 2.3.
What is the Servlet Specification version in the BI Report Server? Is it same as of AppServer?
Is there any other alternative to filter (secure) the access to rwservlet? What is RWSecurity class?
thanks
VB

Hi Vijay,
What is the Servlet Specification version in the BI Report Server?9iAS Rel 2 uses Servlet 2.3
Is there any other alternative to filter (secure) the access to rwservlet?You can use the default security implementation shipped with Oracle9iAS. Use Portal to define the users and their authentication information (username/passwd). Register your reports in Portal, and allow access to only authorized users. All users will be asked their username/passwd, and only the authorized users will be granted access - whether they try to access the report published on a portal page, or directly using an rwservlet URL.
Find more information in "Publishing reports" Ch 5 - Controlling User Access:
http://otn.oracle.com/documentation/reports.html
Also the Reports:Portal intgration viewlets:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/index.html
What is RWSecurity class?This is the class that implements the above logic (default security mechanism using Portal and SSO).

Create and configure reports server in Oracle 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2 on solaris 10

Hi All,
I have installed Oracle 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2 on Solaris 10. I want to create and configure a new reports server.
Please help as I can't see anything on metalink.
Thanks/Regards
Dirish

In fact when installing 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2, the default report server name looks like this REP60_TEST.INTNET.MU.
My original tnsnames.ora was like this
REP60_TEST.INTNET.MU =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = test.intnet.mu)(PORT = 1950))
I added an alias to the tnsnames.ora file
now my tnsnames.ora is like this
REP60TEST,REP60_TEST.INTNET.MU =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = test.intnet.mu)(PORT = 1950))
This is working fine
Thanks

Reports Server, 9iAS R2, Redhat 7.3

Hello,
My installation of 9iAS R2 proceeded fine after I installed the openmotif21 compatibilty rpm, but post installation I am still unable to start the reports server successfully.
When I run the command 'rwserver.sh server=rep_oradev' the server dialog box comes up with the message server starting up, but it never does. There is no error message or log entry either?
IF I edit the file $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf/rep_oradev.conf so it only has the entry for the 'URLEngine', it will successfully start this server by itself, however it fails when I put the old entry for 'Engine' back in.
Has anyone successfully got the reports server running on RH7.3 and if so did they need to do anything in particular.
Regards,
James Ousby

Here's a note from our Sotware developers -
"SPS 2.1 (just started beta) will be officially supported on rh 7.3"
This was posted last June, so if you have the 2.1 release of the SPS then you should be OK.

9ias v2 - reports server failed, all else worked, how to fix?

My install went fine with the one exception of the reports server. It generated an error but all else kept on working.
A couple of answers if anybody knows though would be great.
1. How do you install ONLY the reports server.
2. I can't find the Discoverer Plus or Viewer html start files.
Could this have been caused by the reports server not installing?
3. I've installed 9i database v2, 9ias v2, 9ids, etc. Where is the documentation
to now get Portals up?
Thx. for the help.

It looks like the error indeed has to do with the rwaddpag.sql problem.
Here's the message below:

The answer is as you suggested in the Reports release notes. However,
the notes say to "Log on to the Oracle Internet Directory and obtain
the Oracle9iAS Portal user database password".
1. What the heck is that and how do I log on to it?
2. If I 'log on' to it, it'll show the Portal user database password?
Inquiring minds (mine) want to know!
Thanks for any assistance.
Russ I recieved this advice :
Start up the Oracle Internet Directory administration tool:
Start > Programs > (9iAS Instance) > Oracle Internet Directory > Oracle Directory Manager
Log into the oidadmin tool using the OID administrator account
(cn=orcladmin) for the Infrastructure installation.
Username: cn=orcladmin
Password: administrator_password (note this is the one you set during install)
Server : host running Oracle Internet Directory and port number where
Oracle Internet Directory is listening (this may be 4032)
Navigate the administration tool.
=> Entry Management
=> cn=OracleContext
=> cn=Products
=> cn=IAS
=> cn=Infrastructure Databases
=> orclReferenceName=Single Sign-On database SID:Single Sign-On Server
hostname
(for example: orclReferenceName=iasdb:infra.acme.com)
=> orclResourceName=PORTAL
Click the above entry and look for the orclpasswordattribute attribute
value on the right panel. This value is the Oracle9iAS Portal user
database password

Migrating from 9IAS to 9IASR2 : report server troubleshooting

Hello
9IAS application server and report server were installed (OS : windows NT4).
We installed 9IASR2 instead of 9IAS (also installed following patches : 299.5671 infrastructure patch, 270.3110 Core patch, 251.7300 BD patch). Then, we have problem with web applications which launch reports (with acrobate 5.0) : the reports are correct, except accentued caracters or monay symbols which are no more correctly displayed.
We already tried to change NLS_LANG in base register (FRENCH_FRANCE.WE8MSWIN1252 -> WE8I808859P15), but it doesn't seem to have an impact.
I greatly thank any help

Hi Florian
The installer should have automatically updated the correct NLS_LANG variables. For French, it should be set to FRENCH_FRANCE.WE8ISO8859P1
You can also set DEVELOPER_NLS_LANG (for Reports Builder) and USER_NLS_LANG (for Reports runtime) to the same value.
For more information, you can read the online docs for NLS. See http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/A97329_01/bi.902/a92102/pbr_nls.htm#1005629.
If this is still occurring let me know and I can liase with the iAS team.
cheers

Error While Running Oracle Reports Server(9iAS) on Red Hat Linux6.2

I have installed Oracle9iAS on Redhat Linux6.2 I have successfully started the Reports Server. While running any rdf files I m getting the error message "rwrun60: error in loading shared libraries: libXm.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". I don't have this libXm.so.2 file in my system. How to get this file?
Pls help me in this regard as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance.
Manoj

You probably need to install Open Motif (2.1.30), which you can download from:
http://www.opengroup.org/openmotif
Be sure to include /usr/X11R6/lib in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PATH.
You may also need to relink:
make -f ins_reports60.mk install
after you install Open Motif.
Hope this helps.

Publishing content from reports server to a portal page

I have a system with Forms/Reports 6i in a client/server implementation. I have 6i reports server from this on the server tier. I have added 9iAS (minimal install) to get Portal and HTTP server. I have completed the configuration and I can have the portal page submit jobs to the reports server and they are displayed properly.
But I also wish to run reports from the application. This app submits jobs to the reports server via RWCLI60. I was hoping I could use 'File' as the destype and drop off content into a directory the web server knows about and then have a portal page that will generate links to the files. These could be pdf or html output.
Can anyone tell me if this is possible and provide a short list of steps to configure it? Thanks.

there is an example of this on dev2dev, see sample code, "redirect" example

In a webflow how is it possible to redirect to a portal page from a input
processor.
The situation I have is as follows. I have a homepage that has a login
portlet.
The user enters the username and password and after performing the validation
and authentication I need to redirect to another portal page that is
available
only to logged users.
Any help will be creatly appreciated

Reports Server/running reports on the web.

I am trying to configure my web server to run reports on the web. I have followed the instructions provided by Oracle, but some is not clear. When i try to run report on the browser, i get the following error:
CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:
Oracle documentaion say the following about the steps to configure the web server:
1-Start your Web server by entering the following:
2-Start your browser.
3-Create a listener.
4-Configure your Web server mapping and note the physical and virtual directories. For example:
I have done all the steps above except creating a listener. The documentation doesnt explain that step at all.
I have created a cgi-bin directory and made it excetable and copied the rwcgi60.exe from reports server machine to the web server machine. I also copied the TNSNAMES entry for the web server from the reports server machine to the web server machine.
Here is the command i use(just trying to make sure that web CGI is responding, but it doesnt work)
http://web_server/scm/cgi-bin/rwcgi60.exe
Other question: On the server machine, i have 3 oracle directories: ORA81, ISUITES, 806, which one should be the home directory for the reports to work on the web??
I am using oracle 8.1.7 with 9iAS release 1.
Thanks

Please note that our CGI servlet is only used as a migration point for
people with legacy CGI. It is not intended to support people with new
development to -- we encourage you to use JSP and servlets.

Does Web logic Support CGI ?
Need to connect the Web Server with the Oracle Reports Server running
on
a
separate machine.
Which is to be referred to as CGI_Virtual Directory?
Thanks ,
