Any help appreciated. Thx.

Hi Stefan,
Many of the customers are located in hungary and they have created the userid using their keyboard. Hence for now I already have a userid with that hungarian characters, in the SAP system.
Only I would request for the help on how to interface these characters in SAP Business connector to call RFC.
Thanks,

Export Database With Password Containing Special Characters

Hi,
I'm doing a database export using the command:
exp userid=user/pass@instance parfile=exp_parms.dat
The problem is that the password contains special characters so the command fails with a syntax error. The command works perfectly fine when I run it without the password and just type it in when prompted, but I need to include the password in the command because I am running it in a batch file. I've tried using the escape character (\), but this results in a username-password mismatch.
Is there some way of declaring a password containing special characters in the 'exp' command?
...Thanks in advanced!

Hi,
I'm using linux and this is how I did it.
I created a user named ddg with a password ddg)ddg
I did my expdp command like:
expdp ddg/"ddg\)ddg" directory=dpump_dir dumpfile=ddg.dmp
Put the password in double quotes and escape the funny character with a \
Hope this helps.

Entering passwords containing special characters in Terminal

Whenever I enter a shell command that requires me to verify my password (such as becoming root), my password is never accepted as valid because it contains special characters, such as "é" (I'm assuming that's why, at least). I've tried many times and am positive I'm not typing it incorrectly.
Does anyone know a way around this, or do I have to just create a less exotic password?

Characters typed with the Option key may not translate properly between different encodings; the exact character expected may be a different one, or may not map to anything at all. You shouldn't use Option-keyed characters in a Mac OS X account password.

Akula,
the Reports Server name doesn't need to be mentioned in teh TNSNAMES file anymore. This was required in Reports6i and before. Since Reports9i the architecture has changed and a Report Server can be accessed by its name in teh network. The problem that is reported can be due to uncompiled PLSQL in teh Reports rdf file. If you check the Reports queuemanager (on Windows) or using the Servlet command then you see the detailed error message. If you don't see any error message in teh queuemanager then the Reports module file wasn't found. Make sure that the Reports9i Server has access to this. The Reports9i Server Reports_Path is not set in the registry (as far as I know) but in one of its configuration files.
As a quick test - look for the Reports sample files and add your file to the same directory.

Calling Report From JSP

Hello,
I would like to know whether it is possible to call Oracle Reports (Version 2.5/3.0) from JSP?.
Early reply is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Sekhar

Hi Kalyan,
I am assuming that your report itself is saved as a JSP. If you want to run the web layout inside your report (the JSP code in your report), you will have to deploy it to run it. If you want to run the paper layout of your report, you don't need to deploy it, but can call it by a URL in which you specify the report location.

How to call reports from JSP/HTML application

Hi,
We have a web application developed in JSP, I'd like to use Oracle Reports writer to generate reports (Since our back office application is developed using Oracle forms and Reports - 6i).
I don't know how to place a request to Oracle Reports server and view the output. Can someone please help me with this.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Karthik

Hello Karthik,
You have a web application developed in JSP. In that you are calling Reports though URL through your JSP.
User views the source of the HTML page, in browser which is the result of execution of JSP. So Client will see the
HTML output, but not the real JSP.
Still if you donot want to hard code the user/password in file, have a form and ask client to enter user/password.
Or you can combine your JSP with other Java components , like Java bean or Servlets to get user/password at run time.
With Regards
Sachin

Create an InitialContext with a password containing special characters?

Hi there,
I' trying to run the InitialContextExample with WLS 5.1. It works fine as long
as I use my userId
and a password that contains no special characters. If I try to run the example
with another userId and a password
that contains any special characters the server returns that I have entered a
wrong username or password.
I'm trying to get this done by th following command:
java examples.jndi.InitialContextExample t3://localhost:7001 max $test$
My weblogic.properties file looks like this:
# CORE SECURITY-RELATED PROPERTIES
# Read important information about security at:
# http://www.weblogic.com/docs51/admindocs/properties.html
# REQUIRED: The system password MUST be set in order to start the
# WebLogic Server. This password is case-sensitive, at least 8 characters.
# The username for the privileged user is ALWAYS "system".
# This username and password also includes httpd access (see
# HTTPD properties below).
weblogic.password.rme=mypass
weblogic.password.max=$test$
Propaby I have to escape this special characters, but how do I have to do this?
I did not find anything in the examples!
Thanks for your help.
Ralf

Oops. I was in fact entering the wrong password! It does work.

Hide UserID, Password, and Report Path when call Report from Report

Hi,
I have been able to call Report from Report using the hyperlink.
I put these code in my Field on the Report caller.
function F_3FormatTrigger return boolean is
temp varchar2(2000);
begin
temp := 'http://<computer_name>:8889/reports/rwservlet?';
temp := temp || 'server=repsrv' || '&' ||
                     'report=C:\MyReport\rep_detail.jsp' || '&' ||
                     'userid=scott/tiger@orcl' || '&' ||
                     'desformat=htmlcss' || '&' ||
                     'destype=cache' || '&' ||
                     'P_1=' || :ItemID || '&' ||
                     'P_2=' || :ItemName;
SRW.Set_Hyperlink(temp);
return (TRUE);
end;The hyperlink showed, and I can see the rep_detail.jsp showed in the same browser after I clicked the hyperlink.
The problem is, the hyperlink has to include the reports path and also userid and password.
If I did not put the userid and password, it will showed in another browse that
"The report has uncompiled PL/SQL"
How can I hide those userid, password, and the reports path?
BTW, Is there anyway to show the report callee in different page (precisely, open another IE) from the report caller?
Any help would be grateful.
Many thanks,
Buntoro

Hi,
Thanks for the answers.
Yet, I am still doubt about using cgicmd.dat.
I have looked around in this forum saying that it is not secure to use cgicmd.dat. Because all report request does not use authentication (the client can directly open report without login).
In Form, I can use the On-Logon to do the Oracle Form login (to do logon to the database), and then I use my own custom user login to restrict the menu for each user.
I do this since I want to restrict the user,
i.e user A can only view the sales form as well as sales report,
user B can only view the purchasing form as well as purchasing report.
Well, I am not so fond about the SSO itself.
It comes to my mind, since I don't have to re-login (to the database) each time I call another form (login database is only once at the first Form, On-Logon). It also goes to when calling the report caller.
What is RAD?
How can we use it?
Is OID = Oracle Internet Directory?
If true, maybe, I won't use it since I don't understand about it also.
Why we don't have to specify the userid and password when Form calls Report1 (using Run_Report_Object and Web.Show_Document())?
But we have to specify the userid and password when Report1 calls Report2.
Any help is appreciated.
Many thanks,
Buntoro

How to call RDF report from JSP page

Dear all,
I want to call a RDF report from JSP page. I am creating the JSP page using j developer 10G.
Can anyone help me out in this case. Is there any tag or procedure or any other way by of that i can perform this work.
please help and send the reply on [email protected],[email protected]
thanks
Ashok

Hi Ashok,
You can use rwservlet - nothing really to do with JDeveloper. Once you have report server up and running (hint: read http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/bi.1012/b14048/toc.htm), you can call a report like this:
http://server:port/rwservlet?report=my_report.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=html&p_my_parameter=xxx etcHope this helps,

I never really had much luck with this approach.
Mind you I was using Crystal Reports 10, and as far as I recall it didn't allow setting/changing of database at this level.
Things to check
- can you create a database connection on your page with this URL/username/password?
- what server are you using? Tomcat? WebLogic?
I found this in your other post:
Connection Information: {Server Name=ee6rpt, Connection String=DSN=s(ee6rpt);User ID=s(ee62test);Password=;UseDSNProperties=b(false), Database Name=, Database DLL=crdb_odbc.dll}That would indicate it is using odbc to connect to the database (crdb_odbc.dll). ODBC is a bad idea with java.
The way I have got it to work for me (after much trial and error) was to in Crystal Reports to connect using the Oracle Driver, and specifying a tnsname - eg define REPORT_DS in tnsnames.ora.
When running through the JRC, it looked for a JNDI datasource under that same name "REPORT_DS".
Don't know if that will help you or not.
Good luck,
