Subscribing BIRT report from an asp .net application

$
0
0
Hi,

So this is what i am trying to do. We have an application in asp.net. It currently uses SSRS for reporting purpose. I am trying to replace SSRS with iServer and BIRT. I am able to render BIRT report from iServer using JSAPI. I am now trying to implement the scheduler functionality from my .net application using IDAPI. I am using the submitjob class in IDAPI. I am able to submit a job and get email to the user whose credential is used for submitting the job.

I am able to send email to users who have been created in the iServer. The problem is that i want to send email to users and groups of users who are not there in iServer (external users). My application will have many users and groups and they get added everyday, so i cant keep creating users in the server every time. The below is what should happen from my app:

The user logs in to the .net app ( he is not a user in the iServer), goes to the report page, clicks on the report to view it ( report is rendered from iServer). He clicks on subscription, provides necessary details and mentions a group of users who will receive the email notification. This user will not be present in the iServer. This user, and other users and groups is present in my application DB which is a SQL server2008.

The IDAPI submitjob class and other classes in IDAPI are sending emails to users that are created in iServer. How can i send emails to users who are not in iServer?

Avinash.

Hi,

In this example, I put 3 buttons with script to make appears/disappears some tables in a report. This report is running good in the embedded viewer (rcp_report designer : webviewer or html viever) but when I put it on my website running the same version of webviewer, the 3 buttons aren't active.
The url to run the report is :
http://.........:8080/Projet_Metro/run?__report=report/mobile/show_hide_button_vk_260.rptdesign

Have I forget something ??

Thanks in advance for your answer

Hello All,

I have a requirement to develop a report which shows a table with dynamically changing columns based on the SQL query dataset resultset, which have to be analyzed to create required columns.

I read some previous posts about dynamic column addition, but couldn't find any in which dataset result set is analyzed to add columns in the existing table in the report.

Please recommend most efficient approach for this problem!

thanks

BIRT is connected to DB but does not pull data when I preview

$

I use the Troux Enterprise Architecture tool and its analytics are built from BIRT reports. The back end database for Troux is SQL Server 2005. I just got the BIRT data source to connect to the SQL DB. My next move was to open a report that is already made and working in Troux and open it in BIRT. I saved the rptdesign file and opened it up in BIRT. It opens with the Troux theme like it should, but when I preview the report it times out and says there is no connection with the database, but when I go to the data source and test the connection it says it is working. I am really confused by this and unsure of my next steps.

I can provide more details and/or screens if need be. Please help. Thanks!

Increase memory usage with birt 4.2.2?

Hi,
I've got some Birt-Application I would like to update from Birt 3.7.0 to 4.2.2.
But while testing with Birt 4.2.2 I got some Memory Heap Size Errors. After increasing the memory size for my Tomcat, I had a look how much Memory my Tomcat now needs I was a little scared. The attached pic shows what i mean. With Birt 3.7.2 it takes me like 280mb, with Birt 4.2.2 nearly 900mb.
I just change the Birt libs nothing else, what could be the problem or I am doing something completely wrong?

Perhaps some useful information. I'm using Tomcat 7.0.19 and Oracle 11g Database.

Hi all,

I have a problem with the value of bar chart when I make a export pdf in the birt viewer in my prod server, while in dev server it is displayed correctly.

In my server dev I have a Ubuntu :

Viewer Version : 4.2.1

Engine Version: 4.2.1

JRE version: 1.7.0_17

In server prod a Debian :

Viewer Version : 4.2.1

Engine Version: 4.2.1

JRE version: 1.6.0_18

I think it comes from the Java version, but in Debian by default and the stable version of java is 6.

how can I solve this problem ?

Thank you in advance.

Deploying to BIRT 4.2 Viewer Web App

$

I am new to BIRT and I am having a hair-pulling time of it getting the report to execute in the BIRT Viewer running on Tomcat.

To begin, I have performed the following tasks:

  • installed BIRT 4.2.1 to Tomcat 6.32 running on an iSeries machine
  • developed the design file using Eclipse, Version: Juno Service Release 1 Build id: 20120920-0800.
  • deployed the design file to Tomcat's webapps\BIRT421\reportDesignFiles directory which has been configured using the web.xml file via:
    <context-param>
    <param-name>BIRT_VIEWER_WORKING_FOLDER</param-name>
    <param-value>/reportDesignFiles</param-value>
    </context-param>

  • placed the .jar-file containing the project's DAO and VO class files into Tomcat's
    WEB-INF directory or,(never and)
    WEB-INF/lib directory
    depending on the execution at the time, while trying to get this to work


The report design uses a scripted data source which runs like a charm inside Eclipse using the Preview tab. It executes the DAO which registers the JDBC driver, constructs the SQL using the parms passed to the report, and executes the statement without error. It then iterates through the resultSet, placing each record's values into a Value Object (VO) which is then returned to the report's javascript which called the DAO and the report results are displayed.

The trouble is, when I deploy the design-file and the project's class files in its jar to the BIRT Viewer app in Tomcat, no matter what is tried in terms of the location of the .jar-file or variation of importPackage syntax I have seen out there on the web, I always get this error:

TypeError: [JavaPackage DocumentRequestListDAO] is not a function, it is object.




Here are the details of the javascript call. Note that the importPackage statements have been commented as a consequence of the last test run which issued the error.

paramArray.add( params["PARAM_UNIQUEID02"] );

paramArray.add( params["PARAM_UNIQUEID04"] );

documentRequestListDAO.process(paramArray);

                :
                :
                :



Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? And can someone please point me to relevant documentation for BIRT 4.2.1. Just about everything I see 'out there' relates to BIRT 2.n or 3.n.

Thanks in advance,
Ben

Hi everyone,

I have a problem when I generate a report with Maximo in Excel format, the format generated is not Excel but XML and the size of the file is higher than 100 Mb and when I save it as an Excel document the size become 5 Mb.

The problem is I try to send a daily mail from Maximo with that report but because of the file size I always get this error message ­{Message size exceeds fixed maximum message size}

is it possible to generate this report in Excel format and not in XML?

Thanks

Hi,

I want to create a computed column in a data set, which is the ratio of 2 output columns
I wrote an expression to change possible NaN result due to division by 0, but I still have NaN as a result.

Here is my expression :

value = new Number(row["C1"]/(row["C2"])*100);
if(value == Number.NaN)
{
value = 100;
}
value;

Any solution ?

Pie Chart Aggregation

Greetings community:

What I'm looking to do is to configure my pie chart to only display the top 6 fields. The remaining fields should be aggregated into one section and labeled as "Other". I've tried playing with the "Minimum Slice" functionality but due to the dynamic nature of the data, it won't work as a permanent solution (image attached).

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
