Yes, I have replace the userid with scott/tiger@orcl with i6menu/i6menu@vbs and also replace the OAS server's name as you have suggested.
declare
REP_URL varchar2(2000);
begin
REP_URL:= '/reports/rwservlet?userid=i6menu/i6menu@vbs&report=testrep_10g.rdf&desformat=pdf&destype=cache&paramform=no';
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT(REP_URL,'_BLANK');
end;
I had the 2nd code also but both r not working on my machine ......... !!
I have made the following setting on my machine:
1. Registry -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE-> ORACLE-> KEY_DevSuiteHome1->FORMS_PATH ->
Values is : D:\vision_soft\VSS\exe
2. Registry -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE-> ORACLE-> KEY_DevSuiteHome1->REPORTS_PATH ->
Values is : D:\vision_soft\VSS\exe
3. Entry made in the DevSuiteHome_1\forms\server ->default.env
FORMS_PATH=D:\vision_soft\VSS\exe
4. Entry made in the DevSuiteHome_1\reports\confr ->rwservlet.properties
#SERVER= rep10
As my forms is working well & but the report are not able to call.
Could you please let me know is there is any other mandatory setting required for the report 10g.

How do I find the report server name, and then run paper report from forms?

How do I find the report server name, and then run paper report from forms?
I am having a problem running report 9i from forms 9i (see below thread). How do I find out the name of the report server? I checked my C:\ids\reports\conf directory but don't see anything that gives me the name of the reports server. I also don't have a iashome directory.
Also, I just want to run the paper report (not the web version).
Thanks.

Hi,
please read teh Forms / Reports integration paper in teh Collateral section for Oracle9i Forms at otn.oracle.com/products/forms
In summary, you have to create an external Reports Service that you can then give a name.

Error running 9i reports from forms.

Hi folks,
i am having problems running 9i reports from a form.
i have installed Oracle 9iDS on a Win XP machine with 256 MB RAM and a Pentium 1.4Ghz processor.
i also have a local Oracle 9i database. i have created several reports that i am trying to run from some forms but all efforts to date have failed.
below is some sample code.
declare
v_rid report_object;
v_rjob varchar2(100);
v_rptstatus varchar2(100);
v_jobid varchar2(100);
BEGIN
/*get handle to report object itself*/
v_rid := find_report_object('pbranchlist');
set_report_object_property(v_rid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
set_report_object_property(v_rid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'htmlcss');
set_report_object_property(v_rid,REPORT_DESTYPE,'CACHE');
set_report_object_property(v_rid,REPORT_SERVER,'repsrv');
set_report_object_property(v_rid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,synchronous);
v_rjob := run_report_object(v_rid);
v_rptstatus := report_object_status(v_rjob);
while v_rptstatus in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') loop
     v_rptstatus := report_object_status(v_rjob);
     message(v_rptstatus);
end loop;
if v_rptstatus = 'FINISHED' then
     /*display report in browser*/
--      web.show_document('http://steve:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
--      substr(v_rptsvrjob,instr(v_rptsvrjob,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repsrv','_blank');
web.show_document('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rjob,instr(v_rjob,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repsrv','_blank');
else
     message('error running Report');
end if;
end;
pbranchlist is defined in the form,
repsrv is a report server i installed and explicitly started.
on clicking the button to run the above code, i get a message on the browser status bar as follows
opening http://steve:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid11?server=repsrv...
that's it. it stays like that forever and a progress bar showing the status of the operation gets to the halfway mark and stays there for up to 15 minutes.
I eventually halted the operation by clicking the stop button of the browser. The form then becomes totally non-responsive with the mouse indicator changing to the hour-glass shape and a small vertical bar moving rapidly back and forth at the bottom of the form window.
My only recourse then is to explicitly close the browser window.
I have already configured Reports to run in non single sign-on mode by setting SINGLESIGNON=NO in the rwservlet.properties file.
Is there anything i have not done properly?
Thanks in advance.

Steve,
can you check the Reports cache directory if the Reports file got created? I would assume yes, but better check.

Rep-52005 error when running a report from form with parameter form

Shellie Bricker

Your code seems to be implementing metalink note 139546.1 - Using Reports parameter forms with RUN_REPORT_OBJECT on the web.
For what I can see, the P_ACTION parameter should end in ?...
i.e.
P_ACTION=http://<hostname.domain:port>/reports/rwservlet?'
set_report_object_property (
repid,
report_other,
'paramform=yes P_USER_CONNECT='
|| vc_connect
|| ' P_SERVERNAME='
|| v_reportserv
|| ' P_ACTION='
|| v_report_url
|| '/reports/rwservlet?'
);If this does not fix your problem, then to troubleshoot further you would have to post the code in your Before Parameter Form trigger of your report.
Hope this helps,
UPDATE:
If the above does not fix your problem, my guess is that report name is not being generated in the hidden runtime values build by the code in the Before Parameter Form trigger.
i.e.
http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet?report=&destype=cache&desformat=PDF
The above code will throw error REP-52005: The specified key report does not exist in key map file.

Error running the report from Form

Hi,
I am try to run the report from the form by using these code of line
DECLARE
RPT_OBJECT REPORT_OBJECT;
RPT_RUN VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
RPT_OBJECT := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REPORT7');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(RPT_OBJECT, REPORT_COMM_MODE, SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(RPT_OBJECT, REPORT_DESTYPE, CACHE);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(RPT_OBJECT, REPORT_OTHER,'P_CITYCODE'||:CITYCODE||'PARAMFORM = YES');
RPT_RUN := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(RPT_OBJECT);
END;
but i m not using any Form server and Report Server i m completly using Oracle9iDS
It gives the error rep-0110 file not found and
rep-1070 error while opening and saving the file
please give me the solution
Shehzad

Shehzad,
this means that Reports Server cannot access the Reports module. You can test this assumption by copying your Reports module into <Oracle Home>\reports\samples\demo. The demo directory is out of the box accessible fro Reports.
If this allows you to run the Report, then all you need to do is to specify the Reports_Path to include the reports modules.
btw.: An other reason can be that your Reports contains uncompiled PLSQL, so you may want to check this too.

Application hangs while running a report from Forms

Hi all,
I am getting a problem regarding running reports from Oracle forms application for printing in a shared printer at client system. There is no problem when I set the DESTYPE to HTMLCSS or FILE. But when I set it to PRINTER then the application hangs and report server gets busy. Once this problem occurs other reports from other client systems are not generating even if this is a HTMLCSS or FILE type.
The thing is the application has ran successfully for two months. Suddenly from last few days the problem is arising.
Few things that I have noticed:
1) When the application hangs I cheked the Task manager, where the process rwlpr.exe is running. If I manually ends the process there the application comes back with a message 'unable to run report'.
2) I have checked few log files, where I have found few log files whose names end with a job number. The file generates from a succesfully running report shows few steps tht end s with closing the printer. But the file that is generated from an unsuccessfull job stops at the step 'Opening Printer //<machine name>/<printer share name>'.
3) Then finally I have changed the DESTYPE to file and using the HOST command printing the text file to shared printer in dos mode. Its working fine. But often the first problem arises again.
What are the possible resons that may cause this problem.
Looking for your positive response.
Thanks and regards
Sandy

From dos prompt I have used the type commad.
From server machine in dos prompt I have used,
type d:\rep.txt > \\<client machine name>\<printer shared name that is connected to client printer>
from Server machine I have opened a Notepad doc, File >Print >Selected the printer that is in client machine.
This works fine.
Now my code to print a report directly to printer,
V_PRINTERNAME := '\\mmondal\mmondalprn'; -- shared Printer name at Client machine
repid := find_report_object('REP_BANK_MST');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,PRINTER);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'dflt');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESNAME,V_PRINTERNAME);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'kt30');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no P_ISPOSTED='||:CHK_ISPOSTED);
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
LOOP
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
END LOOP;
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=kt30','_blank');
ELSE
message('Error when running report');
END IF;
exception when others then
     message(to_char(sqlcode));
This hngs the application. And other requests enqued in job queue does not process. If I cancel the stucked job then other reports complete sucessfully.

Run Crystal Report From Forms

Dear all,
Can i run a crystal report from forms10g ? if i yes then how can i do it
Thanks in advance

I have to be honest I don't know much about crystal reports.
In addition to the suggestion of Francois, if you can access/run it via a URL you could use the web.show_document procedure with the url containing all your required parameters, which is similar to some of the method available to run oracle reports.
eg. web.show_document(http://ServerNameDetails?parameter1=1&parameter2=hello,'_blank');

Running report from forms

hi,
I am having problems in running report from form.
I am using oracle 9i on windows 2000 server and no 9iAS at the moment. On client side, i have windows xp and 9iDS installed. I want to run report from forms in 9iDS testing environment.
my forms are running ok but now i need to run report. so what i have done is that i have created a report object in form and following are enteries present in it at the moment.

i have installed report server with following command
rwserver -install 9irep
i have changed entry in rwservlet.properties like
SINGLESIGNON=NO and i have removed the following entire block of 9irep.conf, which i have read from some documentation

i get the following error message when i run my form
frm-41214 Unable to run report
and then next message is
frm-41217 unable to get report job status
i debugged the report id and it is
9irep_0
returned by Report_Job_Id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(Report_Id);
When I checked the Report Queue Manager
it is showing status like
(9irep)Terminated with error
and detail it shows is
Unable to connect to the specified database.
Now I am wondering what to do next.
any suggestions???????

Hello,
From your description, it seems like the report is faling due to a database authentication problem. When you run your report from Forms, Forms internally passes the its database connection information to Reports automatically. So ensure that you are connected to a valid database in Forms, before the report is called.
Please verify whether a simple report which does not require a database connection, for example, a report containing only a boilerplate text object, is running correctly. Also, in the trigger code that you have specified, you should add the following:
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id, REPORT_DESTYPE, CACHE);
so that the report output gets generated to the server cache, and can be retrieved using rwservlet/getjobid.

FRM-41214 unable to run report from forms with parameters

Hi all,
I am unable to run a report from forms if I pass parameters. Report is running fine in reports builder and in url if I access the report straightly.
I used set_report_object_property to pass the parameters.
Any clues to solve this problem?

Hi Jeneesh,
Code is below:

Invalid Id when i run reports from forms

Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Hello fadi,
if you are still getting the problem, even when every thing is fine, just do this one, you replace with full absolute path in the place of report name when passing arguments to the run_product, i have the same problem initially but now its working hope this works, if still your problem exists, just try to build new report with default settings, it might be vauge, just try out some things work out in this way only.
have a nice day.

Candace,
I am running my reports in a Client server environment. I tried both RUN_REPORT_OBJECT and RUN_PRODUCT and I am getting the same error in each method.
And Yes, My reports run fine when I run it directly.
Thanks

I have entries in my keymap file and I can call my reports via

a report by clicking on a button of a form on the web. The
RUN_PRODUCT built-in does not work (at leas it seems like this)
If any one has expiriense with it, please, give me a hint.
