Set report_path Oracle9iAS Report Services  on Linux

Hi,
I have a problem.
I'm trying to set Oracle9iAS Report Services on Linux.
I would create an report_path and so I add in <server_name>.conf the following line :
<property name="sourceDir" value="ORACLE_HOME/myReports/rdf"/>
In this mode when I run the report through the URL I must write only
http://.....?report=<report_name>.rdf+........ .
Unfortunately this doesn't happend.
I show this errors :
REP-110: Unable to open file 'xxxxxxx.rdf'.
REP-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'xxxxxxx.rdf'.
But If I run the report this mode
http://.....?report=ORACLE_HOME/myReports/rdf/<report_name>.rdf+........ .
the report works fine.
Can you help me, please ??
Kind Regards
Giordano

Hi
<property name="sourceDir" value="ORACLE_HOME/myReports/rdf"/>
Hope you have not missed out like '$' prefixing to ORACLE_HOME. If you are doubtful you can even give a try with full physical location rather than using environment variables.
Also have you shutdown and restarted the Server in order for the above configuration change to take effect.
Thanks,
Vinod

  • Oracle9iAS Reports Services Engine API

    Hi,
    In Oracle9iAS Reports Service documentation, it mentions that there's an API for creating your own engine called Oracle9iAS Reports Services Engine API. Could anyone tell me where can I find information about this API?
    Thank you in advance,
    Fred

    Hi Fred,
    We are working on publishing the Pluggable Engine sample code and documentation soon on OTN. Meanwhile, if you post your email address, I could send you the sample code.

  • Setting Credentials in Reporting Services

    I am using SSRS 2005 and importing a report that runs fine in Visual Studio 2005 into an existing 3rd party Windows based software, part of which provides reporting functions already in use.  the third party software, as well as VS 2005 are on a Windows Server 2003 machine. After importing to the 3rd party software the error below occurs.
    "An attempt was made to set credentials for a data source 'Manitou' associated with the report. Report data source settings are specified in a way that prevents credentials from being submitted to the report server." 
    One issue that causes this problem is if the XML document I am importing has an entry of "Integrated Security = true"  However, the last three files I have imported trying to get this report to work do not have this entry, but I am still receiving this error. 
    What are some other causes for this error?

    I have solved the error ""An attempt was made to set credentials for a data source 'Manitou' associated with the report. Report data source settings are specified in a way that prevents credentials from being submitted to the report server."
    The problem was that there was a line in the .rdl file like <DataSourceReference>database name here</DataSourceReference>
    This is apparently not sufficient for Report Server authentication.  I found a working existing report that had
    <ConnectionProperties>
            <DataProvider>SQL</DataProvider>
            <ConnectString>Data Source=Server Name Here;Initial Catalog=database naem here</ConnectString>
          </ConnectionProperties>
    in the file.  I added this and removed the   "DataSourceReference" line, imported and it worked.

  • Reports Service failes with 186 error after Disco4i Admin install.

    OS NT 2000
    DB 8.1.7
    9iAS 1.0.2.1
    Disco Admin 4.1.33e
    Everthing was working fine until the install of Disco4i Admin. It would error on the install until I stopped the Reports Service. Post install - The reports service failed to start. NT specific error 186.
    I've performed a TNSPING80.EXE myserver & verified the TNSNames.ora configuration in 806, iSuites, and 8.1.7. Everything looks ok.

    If you have set the TNS_ADMIN environment variable or registry key to an alternate value, Oracle9iAS Reports Services may fail to start with an error 186 or REP-0186. In such a case, you can start Oracle9iAS Reports Services from an MS-DOS command prompt as follows:
    prompt> setenv TNS_ADMIN <IAS_HOME>/6iserver/network/admin
    prompt> <IAS_HOME>/6iserver/reports60_server start
    replacing <IAS_HOME> with the directory where you installed Oracle9i Application Server. This will force Oracle9iAS Reports Services to use the tnsnames.ora file at <IAS_HOME>/6iserver/network/admin.
    Hope this will help

  • EPSI Dashboard problem after moving from reporting services 2005 to 2012

    I have created a Dashboard with Allscripts EPSI with a Reporting Services Report.  After we changed from Micrsosoft Reporting Services 2005 to 2012, the report now gets cut in half.  I turned a ticket in to Allscripts and they said that it had
    nothing to do with their software, that it had something to do with a setting on our Reporting Services server.  Please point me into the right direction.

    Hi Jason,
    Based on my understanding, after you move the report from Reporting Services 2005 to Reporting Services 2012, the report can’t display well.
    In Reporting Services, upgrading a report definition in SQL Server Data Tools is the only way to upgrade the .rdl file. In your scenario, if the .rdl file isn’t upgraded in the new environment, it’s expected that the report won’t display well. So please
    open an .rdl file in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) within the new environment, then the Report Designer will automatically create a backup file and upgrades the report to the current namespace. After a report is upgraded, you might notice
    additional errors, warnings, and messages. This is the result of changes to the internal report object model and processing components, which cause messages to appear when underlying problems in the report are detected.
    Reference:
    Upgrade Reports
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

  • Service Accounts for Reporting Service in SQL Server Failover Cluster setup

    I am setting up 2 Report Services (SSRS) in SQL Failover Clustering (Version: 2012SP1) on Windows 2012, as part of scale out architecture.
    There are 2 options to configure the service account for SSRS:
    Option 1) Using domain accounts, as what I have done for DB Engine and SQL Agent.
    Option 2) accept the default, which is virtual account for SSRS. Per documentation URL:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx
    which is the recommended one? is it option 2?
    There is security note on above URL as well, but does not clearly mention that option 1 is not recommended.
    Security Note:  Always run SQL Server services by using the lowest possible user rights. Use a MSA or  virtual account when possible. When MSA and virtual accounts are not possible, use a specific low-privilege user account or domain account instead
    of a shared account for SQL Server services. Use separate accounts for different SQL Server services. Do not grant additional permissions to the SQL Server service account or the service groups. Permissions will be granted through group membership or granted
    directly to a service SID, where a service SID is supported.
    Thanks very much for your help!

    Hi Luo Donghua,
    In SQL Server Failover Cluster Instance, personally two options can run well. If you use the virtual account for SQL Server Reporting Service. Virtual accounts in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 are managed local accounts that provide the features to
    simplify service administration. The virtual account is auto-managed, and the virtual account can access the network in a domain environment.
    Of cause, you can also use domain accounts in your clustering. 
    Just make sure your service account is set up here, or that it is using a proper built-in account.For more information, see:http://ermahblerg.com/2012/11/08/cluster-ssrs-in-2008/

    2. Created new Report Server database on our instance and reconfigured Reporting Services to this DB.
    3. Un-installed and re-installed Reporting Services role in Configuration Manager
    4. Un-installed and re-installed SSRS on Configuration Manager (dedicated) SQL instance after removing Reporting Services role in CM12.
    I have referred couple of links on forum and none seem to help resolve this issue.
    Let me know if there is anything specific I missed out from my end. Appreciate any assistance.

    It seems that Reporting Services for SCOM and SCCM cannot co-exist on the same server (it sounds like a bad idea anyway)

  • Oracle 9i Report service

    Does anyone have any knowledge of 9i Report Service? Our intention is to provide web based reporting to our users with ability to control their access and remove their dependency of having connected to the network. We want our users to have global access to our data through the report mechanism and be able to connect to the net and view it from any where any time. I have heard, Oracle 9iAS along with 9i Report Service can perform this task.
    Is there anyone who have done similar setup and has used 9iAS. I will be very appreciative, if anyone can share there setbacks and/or transition process. you can send me email directly if possible.

  • How to set a default date as a parameter in Microsoft Reporting Services 2008 to January 1st

    How can I set a default parameter for date for 01/01/yyyy.

    Hi Giss68,
    If I understand correctly, you want to set the first day of current year as a default value of a parameter in Microsoft Reporting Services 2008 report.
    If in this scenario, we can use the expression below as the default value in the parameter:
    =DateAdd("d",-DatePart(DateInterval.DayOfYear,Today,0,0)+1,Today)
    The following document about DateAdd function is for your reference:

  • SQL 2008 Reporting Services: Setting BackgroundRepeat = NoRepeat in SQL 2008

    Good day
    I have an report that has a background image set.  The BackgroundRepeat property = Clip (which is the alternative to 2005 NoRepeat). This background image is only suppose to print on the first page. When the report was still in SQL 2005 it printed fine,
    with the image displaying on the first page but NOT on the second page.  After the conversion to SQL 2008 I noticed that the image is now printing on both pages. 
    Please advise on the way forward.  Is there another property that I need to provide to make the image only print on the first page?
    Your response will be much appresiated.
    Kind Regards
    Ronelle

    Hi Ronelle,
    The
    BackgroundRepeat property indicates how the background image fills the available space. So if set the property to
    Clip in Reporting Services 2008 or NoRepeat in Reporting Services 2005, the background image will not repeat in both horizontal and vertical in current page, but it will be displayed as background in every
    page.
    However, as you mentioned, the background image only print on the first page as you desired in your report in Reporting Services 2005. If you achieve this just by setting the
    BackgroundRepeat property to NoRepeat, could please post the specific version of your Reporting Services 2005 which you can find it in the bottom of your Report Server pages? It will be helpful for us to provide you
    further assistance.
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best Regards,
    Tony Chain

  • Trouble with MSSQL Reporting Services and Oracle: PLS-00553: character set

    First off, Oracle version is 8.1.7.4.0. SQL is 64bit 2005 on Windows 2003 with all the latest patches. We’re using the Oracle 10.2 client on the SQL box.
    A few months ago queries against Oracle stopped working on our MSSQL reporting services server - after a service pack on this same system.
    I ended up having to grant permissions on Oracle directories to eliminate the first error and then renamed the NLS_LANG registry entry (effectively deleting it) to get rid of the second error.
    The second error was: ORA-12705: Cannot access NLS data files or invalid environment specified. I don’t have docs on the first error, but it was a reference to a file access problem. Looking at this error again makes me think that I still have some file access problems.
    The old value for the NLS_LANG registry key was: AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
    Everything has been working fine since then.
    Now we are moving some new reports into production which use Oracle stored procedures and they are getting this error:
    --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
    w3wp!processing!8!7/27/2009-09:26:09:: e ERROR: An exception has occurred in data source 'CSUD3_RPTAPL'. Details: Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Query execution failed for data set 'MYDATASET'. ---> System.Data.OracleClient.OracleException: ORA-06550: line 1, column 57:
    PLS-00553: character set name is not recognized
    ORA-06550: line 0, column 0:
    PL/SQL: Compilation unit analysis terminated
    I've created a test package as below, which has also gotten the same error.
    create or replace
    PACKAGE BODY SQLTEST AS
    PROCEDURE OPEN_CURSOR (ResultCursor OUT T_CURSOR,
    SQLTESTIN IN VARCHAR
    AS
    l_query varchar2(3000);
    BEGIN
    l_query := 'Hi there';
    open ResultCursor for select l_query "field1" from dual;
    END OPEN_CURSOR;
    END SQLTEST;
    I tried setting the NLS_Lang value back to its old value, but it did not fix this problem – and made all the regular oracle queries break again.
    From what I've read, the client should be using the database default if the charset is not specified on the client.
    Can anyone advise on what the problem might be?
    Thanks!
    Sam Greene

    With all due respects I can not think of a worse reporting tool than MS Reporting Services.
    Give serious consideration to getting a real report writing tool from Oracle or SAP (Business Objects / Crystal).
    Reporting Services is one nightmare after another.
