Saving report output on client machine
Hi All,
I'm using reports 6i. I'm running a report on the web which runs 5 reports inside it and it should save the outputs of these five reports in PDF format to the client machine. I can not give mime type as i don't want to show it in the acro. reader. What i want is, silently all these 5 outputs should get saved on the client machine and the main reports should say something like 'The reports generated and saved in c:\...... '. Can somebody help
TIA
Manish
hello,
what you can do, is to run the reports to file on the server in a directory, that is available as virtual path and then use e.g. javascript to fetch these reports.
hope this helps,

Error while opening a report in FRstudio client machine.
Hi,I'm getting below error while opening a report in FRstudio client machine. please help me if any of you resolved this issue earlier.
client laptop: 64bit windows7
hyperion version: 11.1.2.2
error msg:

thanksI've seen umarshalling error when there is a difference between the client and server version. Is there a patch applied? I would recommend to uninstall the existing one and install if from Workspace. (this will ensure that you've the correct client version)

Running reports runtime on client machine
hi,i have an ERP installed on a host machine but anytime i try to view reports from a client with forms and reports6i runtime installed,i get the error FRM 41211:SSL FAILURE RUNNING ANOTHER PRODUCT or something like that.how can I resolve this?
thanksWithout any information provided regarding your operation system and the Forms version, I can only guess that you are on Forms 6i (6.0.8) and XP. The problem most likely is a compatibility issue with the shortcut definition on XP.
If you have access to http://metalink.oracle.com then get Note 261038.1. If you don't, get help from customer support.

Saving report output in default path
Hi,
We are using the 6i reports server. We want to save the report output as a file in a default path. We are making the report requests through URL call from within a PL/SQL block. When we give just the filename(this will dynamically be generated for each request) in the DESNAME parameter, it is saving directly into the path where we started the reports server. We don't want to hardcode the required path in the PL/SQL block.
Can't we set the default path for saving the report output during the configuration of the reports server?
Is there any alternative to achieve this, like storing the path(without filename) in any configuration file similar to <servername>.conf in 9i reports server?
Regards,
Milton.Hi Milton
Try these suggestion and see if they work...
Add ORACLE_HOME/bin in your system PATH and run Reports Server from the folder where you want your output file to be generated.
You could also be storing the "default" path in a config file and use IO packages to read it.
Create a user parameter of character type and do the following in any of the Reports trigger:
:desname := :p_1 || :desname;
You may pass the "default" path on the URL.

Thanks & Regards
Sivaramakrishnan VHi,
If you have any issues with Crystal reports .Net SDK's then please post your questions in [Crystal Reports .NET SDK forum|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio;.
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all .NET SDK queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thank you for your understanding,
In order to run the reports on the server where Crystal Reports is not installed, you need to install the runtimes of the Crystal Reports on the server.
Runtimes of Crystal Reports contains all the requiered dlls of CR to run the reports where CR in not installed.
Link to download CR runtimes - click [here|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm]
The Wiki [here|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsforVisualStudio.NETRuntimeDistribution-Versions9.1to12.0] is currently the best resource for CR.NET Runtime information.
Hope this will help!!

Hello,
I remember Portal(first version and WebDB prior to that)
perfectly saving a Report as File even if the Report output
spans multiple pages.
Now I am using the latest version of Portal and I am unable
to save the Report to file when the Report output paginates to
several pages.
It always saves the First Page of Report.
Please throw light through any form of Solution.
Thanks a million

Saving reports output in PDF or Excel

a form with parameters passed. I am also having a problem whem the output is shown in htlm it is wrapped. Is there away to stop this data wrapping process from happening?
Thanks,
MorrisHi Ratheesh,
In a previuos posted message I've suggested to Carla close exactly the same you did after. And also did'nt worked.Anyway, just for your info.
Dear Carlangas (as we say in Mexico, with no offense)
Here is a workaround for you...
As I'm not a JSP expert developer in my case I will do next
It seems we are facing a problem with the DESFORMAT=PDF and report out parameter for your jsp report and requiere a jsp/reports experienced developer help or further investigation. I'm not saying it's not possible to generate a PDF output from a jsp report, but for the moment nobody has said how to.
I believe you saved your report in jsp format because you need your users review the report previuosly they may print it.
I also suppose you have a form with a magic button from where you launch your report.
Well I will call your existing button PREVIUOS or will add a nice gif icon and will create another one called PRINT or with a pretty printer .gif icon. This new button will call a RDF version of your report. As you have read is very easy to create PDF format/output report in RDF format.
Also your will need negotiate presentation with your customer. As you must know reports output in a Paper report, PDF, jsp formats are not always exactly the same because they are not simply the same.
Hope this help you. In the meantime you will save time for your investigation for a future release of your report. -
Reports output to local machine
Im using destype=file desformat=DELIMITED DELIMITER=, desname=c:\temp\temp.csv in my cgicmd.dat file but the resulting .CSV file is generated on the C drive of the server and not the machine I ran the report from (which is where I wanted it)
Is there any way of making the output save to the client or displaying the standard Save As dialog box ?This behavior depends of the Browser you using.
The downloaded file has mime type application/octet-stream
IE will try to read this stream into the browser,but Netscape will open the Save as box.
This is from Microsoft product support:
"Internet Explorer 5 May Display Downloaded File in Browser Window Instead of the "Save As" Dialog Box
The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5 for Windows NT 4.0
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5 for Windows 98
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5 for Windows 95
SYMPTOMS
The contents of a downloaded file may be displayed in the browser window instead of the Save As dialog box in Internet Explorer 5.
CAUSE
Internet Explorer attempts to detect when the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) type of the downloading file is set to application/octet stream, which is the correct behavior according to Request for Comments (RFC). However, other browsers may not try to do anything with this MIME type, so the Save As dialog box is displayed for all downloaded files.
STATUS
This behavior is by design. "

Saving report output to a file on the server.
Hi,
We are using BI Publisher Standalone version 10.1.3.3.1.
Is it possible to schedule a report to output to a file on the server?
I want the whole report to be saved as a file on the server.
This is somewhat similar to bursting to a file system, but, I don't want to split the output.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
NandaYes, use the scheduler and schedule the report,
do the bursting into FTP or
schedule the report to run and run it into FTP as a single FILE.
First option, you need to provide the query , with FTP server name, username, password etcccc. -
Issue with display of Barcode in the report output from different Machines
Hi ,
I have developed a BI Publisher report to print barcode on the output.
I have configured the necessary setup in XML Publisher Responsibility
by following the steps
1) Home --> Administration
a) Create Font Files
Uploaded the ttf file
2. Create Font Mapping Set
"Special Fonts"
3.Created font Mapping under the Mapping set of type "Special Fonts"
4.Provided the Value of Font Mapping Set to ‘FO Processing ‘ under Configuration
Font Mapping Set : Special Fonts
The above configuration works fine and I am able to view the Barcode in the output.
Issue : When I try to run the same concurrent porgram from a different PC ,and if I view the output, I am not able to see the barcode.
Please let me know if anyone has faced issue of such kind.
I guess the above cannot be system specific and please let me know where it is going wrong.
Thanks,
SeshuHello again
I have the font file and I already put it into C:/Windows/Font folder. I just don't have the option to "Create Font Files".
I try to use this code in a xdo.cfg file:
<config version="1.0.0" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/config/">
<fonts>
<font family="Free 3 of 9 Extended" style="normal" weight="normal">
<truetype path="FRE3OF9X.ttf"/>
</font>
</fonts>
</config>
but i just can't make the bar code appear in PDF.
Thanks a lot

Default name for saving report output
Hi,
I created an Oracle Report that is run via the rwservlet. Users will be prompted to view/save the output when destype=cache and desformat=pdf, spreadsheet, or delimiteddata. When they try to save the output, the default file name is rwservlet.pdf (or rwservlet.xls). Is there a way to specify a different default file name? Setting the desname and/or jobname parameter (e.g. desname=temp.pdf) doesn't have any effect. Has anyone found a solution to this?
Thanks,
