SecurePDF on Hp-UX

I want to generate password-protected pdf files with reports.
Based on a note I downloaded SecurePDFDestination from OTN together with Plop 2.1.
I followed the instructions to install this on HP-UX, but when I run the report
using:
http://server:port/reports/rwservlet?destype=SecurePDF&desformat=pdf&desname="plop;reportname.pdf;"&server=servername&report=reportname.rdf&userid=user/password@database
the pdf file is not created.
(it is created in the cache dir, but not password protected)
The report queue shows following error:
REP-56109:Job xxx is terminated due to connection timeout
I already increased the timeout setting from 15 to 120 in the reports configuration file, but no result
My report server works fine, since following URL works:
http://server:port/reports/rwservlet?destype=file&desformat=pdf&desname="reportname.pdf;"&server=servername&report=reportname.rdf&userid=user/password@database
The version number of reports = 9.0.4.0.29.
When I use the command line tool of plop to password protect the pdf:
plop -user plop -master PLOP -outfile encrypted.pdf -infile test.pdf
this works fine.
I created a SR for this and they asked me to test it on a windows server with 9iDS installed.
I did this and here it works!
The readme file of securepdf says:
- on windows, copy the plop_java.dll file to a directory that is in the system PATH.
- on solaris and linux, copy the libplop_java.so file to ORACLE_HOME/lib.
In my test on the windows system I copied the file plop_java.dll of course.
In my test on the unix system I shouldn't do any of this , but since it didn't work, I copied
libplop_java.sl to ORACLE_HOME/lib. Note, the file is called .sl and not .so
as the readme file says.
Oracle Support just updated the SR and they say:
"I checked the details on this , however couldn't get technical details on this issue .
Please post this request in OTN discussion forum to get assistance ."
Can anyone help me to get SecurePdfDestination at work on HP-UX? Thanks!

I am facing the same problem. If somebody has ever deployed it in HP UX machine, please guide me to overcome the problem.
PLOP is working fine in windows but when in case of HPUX it is not working. In case of windows there is a installation file (PLOP-2.1.0p1-Windows.msi). But in case of HP UX there is no such installation file.

Report Failed with SecurePDF

Hi
Has anyone use the Plop (2.1.0) plugin and SecurePDF with Reports Server (9.0.4)?
We've been getting a REP-56109 every time a report is being executed via: http://Aserver:7778/reports/rwservlet?destype=securePDF&desformat=PDF&desname="
plop;/tmp/junk,pdf;"&report=test.rdf&userid=Auser/Apassword@AnInstance
Increasing the value of idelTimeout parameter from 20 to 120 does not
resolve the issue:
<connection maxConnect="20" idleTimeOut="120">
Would appreciate if anyone would share their successful use of this plugin with us.
Thanks
Boris

You can configure a custom destination (securePDF) to enable PDF security settings.

PDF security..Pls. help

I tried using the PSP SecurePdfDestination (the sample code for secure PDF in the pluggable destination) I don't get the output at all. I tried running the command from the dos prompt, from the url and there is no output. But if I go to the 9ids/reports/cache dir, I can see the temp file. This file doesn't have the permissions that I want to set.
http://<machine.domain>:8888/reports/rwservlet?report=<repna
me>&orientation=LANDSCAPE&DESTYPE=securepdf&DESFORMAT=pdf&DE
SNAME=wel3;D:\myoutput.pdf;noprint:nomodify
dos>rwclient server=<server> userid=<user/pwd@db> REPORT=<repname> orientation=LANDSCAPE destype=securepdf desformat=pdf desname=we13;T:\temp\zzz.pdf;noprint:nomodify
Am I missing something?
I have the jar in the classpath, dll in the system dir, reports conf has the correct destype. Everything that is mentioned in the readme.doc is in the right place.
Any ideas? Pls. help........

Hi,
1. What version of Reports are you using (though it works with both 9i and 10g).
2. Once again make sure that the dll and psp.jar files are present in the respective directories. If you directly extract these files from winzip, then it extracts them in the right folder, however, it extracts them inside some particular path like psp_windows\folder1\folder2...
3. What OS are you on?
By the way, your Q about the cached output - it will not have the required permissions, because the plugin jar takes this cached output and converts this into a secure PDF before putting it in the location specified in DESNAME.
