RUN_PRODUCT help

Hi,
We currently use the RUN_PRODUCT(FORMS ... to start up a second MDI window. All is well with this code on versions of forms up to 9i. Using forms 11 this command has become obsolete can anybody please advise me of a workaround as I can not think of one to dynamically start a second oracle instance.

It is not for web forms unfortunately and using the call_form built in will only open the form within the current MDI window.
I have found a solution by using the Win_API_Shell.WinExec package from the D2KUTIL library.

FORMS60_MAPPING (virtual directory, must exist as a virtual
directory in your web-server configuration)

Help me in using RUN_PRODUCT to call a report from form

Hi GURUs
I am trying to call a report from a form.
I enter hiredate as input parameter in the form and click the 'run report' button.
The hiredate value will be sent to report via pl_id, TEXT_PARAMETER,:CTL.TXT_DT as shown below in when button pressed trigger
DECLARE
pl_id ParamList;
BEGIN
pl_id := Create_Parameter_List('tmpdata');
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'HRDATE',TEXT_PARAMETER,:CTL.TXT_DT);
Run_Product(REPORTS, 'C:\empreport.RDF', SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl_id, NULL);
END;
Coming to report side its a simple query select * from emp where trunc(hiredate) > trunc(:hrdate);
I created 'hrdate' user parameter in the report
The problem is when I run the form it calls report and shows the report parameter form with the carried value. now I have to run report again.
How do I supress this paramenter form because when I am sending value from form I dont have to see the parameter form at the report.
I dont know how to use paramform = no with RUN_PRODUCT
Please tell me what to do it....
Thanks

Looking at the Forms documentation it specifies, "To run a report from within a form, you must use the dedicated report integration built-in RUN_REPORT_OBJECT." The RUN_PRODUCT built-in is used to run the Graphics product. I suggest you give RUN_REPORT_OBJECT a try. This is how we call a report from a form.
Hope this helps.

We have at a lot application witch work in client/server mode using forms/Reports 6i.With these applications we haven't problem to print report on printer using RUN_PRODUCT.Now we want to migrate on Forms/Reports 9i.When we use Run_Report_Object to print report on network print, we are encountring problems, the following errors occurs:
REP-713: Printer name '\DT_C2_0_8102\LaserJet1100' is wrong in the parameter DESNAME.
LaserJet1100 is a network printer install on the machine witch have DT_C2_0_8102 in the network.
I would like to know, if there an other way for naming printer? Secondly, i would like to if i add a network printer on my machin and define it as my default printer.

Run_report_object error in 6i, help!

hi,
original code used to run the report:
Run_Product(REPORTS, report_name, SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl_id, NULL);
changed to:
repid := find_report_object('report_name');
set_report_object_property(repid,report_comm_mode,SYNCHRONOUS);
set_report_object_property(repid,report_execution_mode,RUNTIME);
     set_report_object_property(repid,report_desname,'NULL');
     set_report_object_property(repid,report_desformat,'HTML');
     set_report_object_property(repid,report_destype,'SCREEN');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid,pl_id);
When I run the report, I get this message "Cannot find report: Invalid ID", followed by another message "argument 1 to built-in Run_report_object can not be null". Can anyone help me??

The Report Object you create in Forms Builder has no link yet to the actual rep file. In the Report Object properties you can set the filename, which is the name of the actual rep file you are going to run.
However, you can leave this property blank and specify it in your trigger. This way you can use the Report Object to run more than one rep file. In the next example I have created a Report Object test, and in the trigger I specify that I want to run rep file test1 (assuming it's in the reports60_path):
declare
repid report_object;
v_rep varchar2(100);
begin
repid := find_report_object('test');
set_report_object_property(repid,report_filename,'test1');
set_report_object_property(repid,report_other,'dept_id=10');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
end;

Hi Heidi
I have already tried printername := 'I.T Printer'; but result is same.
This is also my default printer and I tried to add / remove the following coding
Add_Parameter(pl_id, 'DESNAME', TEXT_PARAMETER, PRINTER);
but in both cased I received the same error.
I also tried to print thru HOST command as follows
the_username := Get_Application_Property(USERNAME);
     the_password := Get_Application_Property(PASSWORD);
     the_connect := Get_Application_Property(CONNECT_STRING);
the_command := 'rwrun60 report=c:\wegt001r.rdf userid= '||the_username||'/'||the_password||'@'||the_connect||' DESTYPE=Printer BACKGROUND=NO BATCH=YES ERRFILE=c:\reports\error.log LOGFILE=c:\reports\joblog.log p_eq_nbr='''||'TESTMKI'''||' p_wt_gkey=118306';
Host( the_command );
Host command displays correctly but no printing.
I then change my command as follows
the_command := 'rwrun60 report=c:\wegt001r.rdf userid=test/test@test DESTYPE=Printer BACKGROUND=NO BATCH=YES ERRFILE=c:\reports\error.log LOGFILE=c:\reports\joblog.log p_eq_nbr='''||'TESTMKI'''||' p_wt_gkey=118306'; and now report prints on printer.
But I cannot hard coded the username, password and connect.
Thanks,
Hassan

RUN_REPORT_OBJECT -Please Help

Hi,
I have been in touch with Oracle Reports Team on Reports forum for last 10 days.Finally they have referred me here as they say my problem will be better addressed here. So here I am.
Problem background first.
We are telecom software company and in process of upgrading our Oracle Based product to Oracle 9iAS.
We are trying to integrate reports9i with forms9i by replacing run_product with run_report_object.
Platforms: Server-Solaris with Oracle9iAS rel 2 serving as middle tier,Windows 2000 as client with Oracle 9iDS Release 2 installed.
Problem Description
I have a report server named 'repserver2' running on the server.
I run form from Windows 2000 using local f90servlet and it connects to report server on Solaris through run_report_object and the report runs successfully.
When I run the same form (compiled on server ofcourse) on Solaris using server's f90servlet through client browser on windows 2000 and try connecting the same report server on Solaris ...it gives a blank screen.
Things Done already
Forms and reports are already running in non-secure mode.I had made changes to rwserlet.properties for parameter SINGLESIGNON=FALSE.and repserver2.conf where security_Id=rWSec was removed.These changes were done long before according to Integration document frm9isrw9i.pdf
2.I was able to run rwclient/rwservlet on server.Though rwclient command does not show the report output.But I can still see the report successfully run in the report server's queue.
3.Report server's trace and logs do not show any entry.
4.The application log from file <ORACLE_HOME>/j2ee/OC4J_BI_Forms/application-deployments/forms90app/OC4J_BI_Forms_default_island_1/application.log, when I try to invoke report from form on the server shows this :
8/26/03 4:06 PM forms90web: Forms session <2> aborted: unable to communicate with runtime process.
8/26/03 4:06 PM forms90web: Forms session <2> exception stack trace:

Kindly help as this is very urgent as we are expecting business on this platform soon.
Thanx in advance.
Please Refer My messages posted on Reports forum for more case history (if required).

Ankush,
I am from Oracle. However, this forum is not a replacement for customer support which means that we can help as good as we can. If for some reason the problem needs more attention then this is what customer support is for. Taking it from the description of your problem, I think that the best way to track down the issue is to work with a test case of your Forms and Reports module (especially because it works on one platform but doesn't on another).

Plz help in calling of reports from Form in browser

Hi!
I am using 9iAS(1.0.2.2.1) + 8.1.7 database on the same machine with Win NT4.When i invoke report from my system's main form(oracle form6i) using parameter list as Run_Product(reports,'..\iReports\glrxx13.rep',synchronous,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id,null); against a when-button-pressed trigger error raised
"Error:0110 Unable to open the report '..\iReports\glrxx13.rep"
"Error:...Error while opening or saving a ducument '..\iReports\glrxx13.rep".
My Reports are in folder "iReports" which i put in the 9iAS's report60 folder & also in the report60 folder too. I dont know more about virtual dirves mapping & environment variables setting i.e what & where these should be put.
Kindly help!
Many thanks

hello,
their are only two ways of passing the report-name: only the name or the complete path (where path is the PHYSICAL path of the file).
the easiest way is, if you add all directories where you have RDFs in that you want to run, to the REPORTS60_PATH of your server environment. then you can simply use REPx.RDF and it will be run as long as it is somewhere along the reports path.
regards,
the oracle reports team

Hi
It is probable that you should configure the route of your reports the the file 6iserver located in
<ORACLE HOME>\806\CONF.
Example: 6iServer
SetEnvIf Request_URI "rwcgi60" ORACLE_HOME=D:\ORACLE\806
SetEnvIf Request_URI "rwcgi60" RW60=E:\reports\

Help on FRM-41211 Integration error: SSL failure running another product.

Am getting the above error, whenever I run my interface form calling a Report module.
What's baffling though is - this only happens during the initial call to the RUN_PRODUCT built-in. That is, after acknowledging the Form error, the Reports Background Engine is displayed, then everything would seem to be work after that.
Could this be a bug or is there a run-around to this?
Thanks a lot for your ideas and help.

We were getting this error on windows98 machines if someone had opened wordpad or some other unrelated application before running a report after they booted the machine. We solved the problem by forcing the reports backgroup engine to run at startup to prevent this error.

Forms Migration to 11g, RUN_PRODUCT must be declared

Hi All,
I'm performing forms migration from 10g to 11g,
I used Forms Migration Assistant to Migrate forms, But if a form is calling reports then those forms are
not getting compiled and giving the error RUN_PRODUCT must be declared. I know that RUN_PRODUCT
is not supported in 11g, but is there any way to configure Forms Migration Assistant so that it replaces this
code with appropriate code. Forms Migration Assistant program asks for Report server name, Servlet Virtual Directory information for the forms that are calling reports. I don't know what to specify in virtual directory field
and report servlet field.
Please help me with this.
Thanks

You are replying to an old thread, but it looks like you didn't read it properly. It is stated that
when migrating from 6i to 10g we have used the wizard to replace RUN_PRODUCT with rp2rro.rp2rro_run_product (rp2rro.pll).So, you also need to use rp2rro.pll if you still want to make use of RUN_PRODUCT. Even in 10g RUN_PRODUCT by itself won't work. As Christian already said:
you probably could simply remove the call to run_product as in 10g the built-in was available but simply didn't do anything. Did you try that yet?

Reports are not called from form in browser plz help

Hi,
I have installed 9iAS+8.1.7 database on the same machine with NT4 server.My system's forms(.fmx) are running well but my reports are not running from my main form.i call reports from the
from as,
Run_Product(reports,'..\iReports\xglrxx12.rep',synchronous,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id,null);
Actually want to know the report's setting when calling from the from in a browser(environment variables,virtual paths etc.).
My database is installed in drive E:\8idb_home\ and 9iAS is on
G:\9iAS_home\.My systems .fmx & .rep files are in "iforms" and "ireports" folder respectively.
Plz help!
Many thanks!

Hi,
First of all thanks to Vincent Botteman for solving the prob.
Yes when i changed my call of run_product by excluding the path i have specified when calling from form it then makes a result.
Also specified the entry of your reports .rep files by giving path in reports60_path registery variable as,
Run regedit-->Hkey_Local_Machine-->Software-->Oracle here give the full path of your .rep files as an first entry in reports60_path variable.And finally not mention the path when calling reports from form as,
Run_Product(reports,'xglrxx13.rep',synchronous,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id,null);<--- Correct way.
Run_Product(reports,'..\iReports\xglrxx13.rep',synchronous,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pl_id,null);<--- Wrong way.
Regards!
