Hi.

[Quoted] [Quoted] I've installed iAS9i, version 1.0.2.2.0 in a RedHat Linux 7.2 box , and as a part of this installation, I've installed and configured Developer 6i, which has been upgraded to patchset 13.

I'm running Forms6i and Reports6i server. I've successfully tested Forms6i, but can't get Reports to work. In $ORACLE_HOME/6iserver/reports60_server I've added (as suggested in Metalink)

REPORTS60_NO_DUMMY_PRINTER=YES; export REPORTS60_NO_DUMMY_PRINTER PRINTER=echo; export PRINTER
TK6_PRINTER=echo; export TK6_PRINTER
TK6_PRINT_STATUS=echo %n is valid; export TK6_PRINT_STATUS TK_PRINTER=echo; export TK_PRINTER
TK_PRINT_STATUS=echo %n is valid; export TK_PRINT_STATUS

The X Server is correctly configured (I'm sure of it)

And in uiprint.txt file ($ORACLE_HOME/6iserver/guicommon6/tk60/admin/uiprint.txt) I've added the "echo" dummy printer as:

echo:ASCII:1:Configure your uiprint.txt file:none:

If I run lpstat -p echo, obviously I don't get nothing.

My idea is, again, obviously, not to use a printer for this Web Reports.

My problem is that, if I run:

$ORACLE_HOME/6iserver/bin/rwcli60 server=Rep60_server report=test.rdf destype=cacheserver desformat=echo desname=test.rep batch=yes userid=scott/tiger_at_db

Always get:

REP-0177: Error while running in remote server REP-0713: Invalid printer name specified 'echo'

and if I run the Web Report Tester provived by the iAS, I get

Oracle Reports Server CGI - The Reports Server Engine terminated abnormally

Can anybody give a pointer to a solution? I've browsed through all the Metalink without an answer, I've relinked the reports executables, but all fails in the same way. Does anybody knows how to setup the reports server without a printer attached to the server?

Thanks a lot for your help and patience.
