Starting the reports server as a servlet

Question

Dear friends, I'm trying to run a JSP Report which was built with JDev and Report Builder, but when I compiled the JSP Report on JDev, the Internet Browser has started with the LOADING... page and nothing happened.
I have Report Services and HTTP Server started, but I can't verify if the Reports Servlet is running.
I've been reading the "Publishing Reports to the Web with Oracle9iAS Reports Services" document at "http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/reports/htdocs/doc_library/getstart/docs/a92102_01.pdf" and it's written that we can start the reports server as a servlet typing :
http://< your_machine_name>:<your_port_num>/reports/rwservlet
In my case :
<your_machine_name> = bicas
<your_port_num> = Is it a HTTP port number? If it is. = 80
Then :
http://bicas:80/reports/rwservlet
But this return a HTTP 404 error, page not found.
I have Oracle9iDS and Oracle9iAS installed on the same machine.
What do I need to do to start the reports server as a servlet?
Do I need to do this to run a JSP Report from the Web?

Answer 1

Try the following:
1) Create a new project in JDev
2) Add a new Reports JSP object into the project from 'File -> new' (this'll setup the project form JSP report execution)
3) Edit the JSP report, or add your own jsp report to the project
4) run the JSP report
To use Reports servlet's in-process server, remove 'server=...' from JSP tag rw:report's 'parameters' attribute, and make sure JVM is set to 'hotspot' in 'Project Setting -> Runner'.
To use standalone Reports server, start the server, and specified the server in rw:report's 'parameters' attribute.
Hope this helps.
