Run reports through browser on local machine

Hi,
I am trying to run 6i reports through a web browser. I have
installed 6i and the reports server on a local machince. I have
configured the reports server and can get it to start.
In order for me to run reports on my local machine through a web
browser do i need a web server ?
I am in my final year @ university, if i need a web server can i
use personal web server ?
The purpose of running them through a browser is only for a demo
for my final year project.
Oracle team : any chance you could host my report ? LOL
Thanks in advance for ANY help,
Russell.

Hi,
If you have installed the 6i Base Release i.e (6.0.8.8.0) version
then the WEBDB Listener comes with the 6i CD. When you install
it automatically get installed also.
In that case you don't need to have the web server. You can
call the report on web using the following URL:
http://host:port/dev60cgi/rwcgi60?report=<reportname>&otherparame
ters.
Here Host and port specifies that machine name and port number
where your webDB listener is installed.
In your case it will be your local machine. By default the
port on which the WebDB is installed is 80.
You can use any web server also, thing is that web server should
support the CGI implementation.
In case of more info you can update this posting.
Hope this helps
cheers
Arun

Running Reports Through a Browser

Hi,
I am using NT 4 with SP3 and Netscape 4.6. I am trying to run
reports through the URL in my browser, but every time I try to
make a call it asks me to download rwcgi60.exe instead of running
it. The virtual mapping settings work, since I can open other
files through them. I think I may need to set up a MIME type
since I am running this through WebDB but I don't know how set
that up. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,

ERROR WHILE RUNNING REPORT THROUGH FORMS.....!

hi all,
ive designed one form in Forms 9i...I'm tryin to run report through a Push button .....report is running well in paper layout through report builder 9i...The problem I'm facing is dat when i pressed button it is giving me error initially as FRM-41214 cannot run report and after that FRM-40735 When button pressed unhandled exception ora-06502.....What could go wrong??... Ive started OC4J instance ....created report object in object nevigator as well and defined basic properties for diff.parameters HTMLCSS,CACHE..etc.,mentioned report path in complete i.e.c:\reports\genbill.rdf ...Can anybody help me out ??? Thnx.!
-----------------------CODE ON BUTTON----------------------------------
DECLARE
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REPORT5');
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
/*Display report in the browser*/
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('<HOSTNAME>:8889/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=myrepserver','_blank');
ELSE
message('Error when running report');
END IF;
PAUSE;
END;

When a report terminates with an error, REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS returns the value "TERMINATED_WITH_ERROR", which is 21 bytes of data, but rep_status is defined as 20 bytes. The 6502 error is due to the data not fitting the variable.
I recommend wrapping the REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS function with a SUBSTR that limits the data returned to 20 bytes, which will ensure the results fit.
For example:
rep_status := SUBSTR(REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep), 1, 20);

When i run report through OC4J Application i get a exception message

When i run report through OC4J Application i get a exception message saying Server returning invalid xml and the exception number is JBO -29000. The Reports Server is installed on machine having IP 10.191.99.254.
Below is the exception message:
(oracle.jbo.JboException) JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.JboException, msg=JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: java.io.IOException, msg=Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: http://10.191.99.254:8888/reports/rwservlet/showjobidnull
Anybody Please help me out with this issue.....because I am really fed up with this problem....want some urgent help.....
One possible workaround which I could make out is there needs change to be made in the .rdf files in Report Builder and then inside the User Parameters we change the Initial Value to * from % because the Reports Server encodes every value as %Initial_Value% and hence if the initial value for the parameter is % then it does not get a valid value and hence it returns as an invalid xml
But unfortunately it seems this workaround does not work.Please help as soon as possible.

Hi,
you said that some changes were made in the .xml files but i had said that all the files present in Reports Developer or Reports Builder are .rdf files and I had made changes in the .rdf files for this articular report and then compiled it thereitself and then ran a paper layout of the report but the report did not comprise any data.
There was sufficient data also to populate the report. So this may not be a database issue. Please help if you can ASAP.

Running Reports Through Discoverer

Discoverer is a new product to me, I understand it is a ad hoc reporting tool but how does it intergrate with Oracle Reports? Can I run an Oracle Report through discoverer or does the user always have to build their own? I want to be able to make some basic reports available to users and allow them to run thier own as well. Any comments or suggestions would be a great help.
Thanks
Laura

Hey Chris,
currently we are not using any version of discover. We are implementing the banner Finance product from SCT and were hoping that their product Web For finance would solve our need for running reports across the web but it looks like it may not. Currently we don't have an adhoc reporting tool, so I am trying to find out as much info as possible about the product. Right now for us to run oracle Reports we need to use Citrix Server or Terminal server, however with the Reports server and this Discover tool i was hoping to move away from all this and run all of them over the web. I was hoping that I would be able to use some of my prepared Oracle reports inside discover either as templates or have them as options with the discover reports.
Any help would be great! I guess I need someone to point me in the right direction so I can ask more pointed questions =)
Thanks!
laura

Running reports through the web with SSO enabled

Access reports through browser

Hi,
Reports developed through sql developer are accessable through browser

As I said in your other thread: they aren't.
If you have a specific, well thought through request, log it at the SQL Developer Exchange.

Running Reports via MachDetails.asp?Machine=

We are migrating from SCCM 2007 to 2012 R2.
Embedded all over the company are references to SCCM 2007 reports that are coded like this:
http reporting page/MachDetails.asp?Machine=xxx
This MachineDetails.asp page in IIS of course allows for any machine name to be added (programmatically in our case) and results in the machine name being populated for ALL reports visible in one view. e.g. not just the
Hardware - General\Computer information for a specific computer report, but if we click around from this
MachineDetails.asp page to any other report, the machine name is already populated.
I cannot see an equivalent in SCCM 2012. I realise we are now talking SSRS instead of IIS, however I was wondering if anyone else has used SCCM like this before and what their solution was when cutting over to SCCM 2012?
Thanks in advance!
Steve

I have a solution for you. Send me an email, if you are untreated in testing this out.

What to install to run reports through application server!

Dear All,
I have to run reports developed in Oracle 6i windows platform on web.
I have to install this application server on Linux operating system.
Kindly help me what components of application server 10gR2 I need to install to configure reports.
Is there any tutorial available?
Regards,Imran

I am installing forms and reports services standalone on CentOS 5.Well, CentOS is not certified by Oracle, but it's a Red Hat clone, so you shouldn't have problems.
Nevertheless I have to say that I've never used it for Application Server (I normally use Oracle Linux).
is there any tutorial to install report services standalone on CentOS operating system?Follow the Linux Red Hat sections within above link.

Jdev 9I on linux: hw to run jsp on browser in local on PC ????

Hi,
I've installed jdev9I on linux directly on the application server to get a sharable dev environment. However, i have a slight problem when we are testing jsp (tutorial for example):

At least how/where we will setup the browser called by Jdev ?
