Greetings,
I cannot seem to get the 9ias Report Server to return the PDF file to my
browser when my Form runs a report form its menu. If I just send the server
the request
(http://mydomain:7777/reports/rwservlet?report=d:\path\report.rdf&userid=me/
pw_at_servertnsname&destype=cache&desformat=PDF) in the browser, it works fine;
but when I use the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT built_in from a Form (menu) to do (I
thought) the same thing, resulting PDF does not return to the browser.
Ideally, it should spawn a new browser window containing the displayed PDF.
The report properties in the calling form are FILENAME (d:\path\report.rdf),
BATCH, ASYNCHRONOUS, CACHE, REP_SERV_NAME, and USER_ID=me/pw_at_servertnsname
in Other Parameters. I know the report is executing properly because I have
examined the report server queue, and the completed job is listed. How to I
tell it to shoot the PDF back over the web to my browser?
This process was similar in the old client/server days when the destination
was PREVIEW, and RUNFORM took care of the data, but for the moment I am
baffled.
