HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found

I am getting this message HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found when I try to set up the RDS connection for Report builder that is installed on the Production Server. Everything works fine on the development. I just uploaded the pages, the .cfr. I have another report for a separate website on the same machine that functions. This one is being passed URL.Variables to the query. I would appreciate any help on setting up the RDS. I did read the one tech note on enableing RDS and followed that.

Thanks,

Mike

CF8 Report Builder duplicates subreport parameters

October 2, 2007, 7:22 am

I am experiencing this problem running Report Builder under Windows XP:

1. Create a report.
2. Create a subreport that has input parameters.
3. Add the subreport to the primary report and define subreport parameters.
4. Save and close both files.
5. Reopen the primary report file.
6. Look at the list of subreport parameters for the linked subreport

I routinely find that in this scenario, any subreport parameter that I originally defined has been duplicated, such that if I started with:

varOne - #query.foo#
varTwo - #query.bar#

Upon reopening the primary report and insepcting the subreport paramaters list I will see:

varOne - #query.foo#
varTwo - #query.bar#
varOne - #query.foo#
varTwo - #query.bar#

Which causes errors when I attempt to run the report.

What's the patch schedule for report builder?

Bug with CF Report Builder 8

Hi,

I'm currently testing the CF Report Builder 8, and I've created a query in the Advanced Query window. e.g. myQry.

In the "Variable containing query object" field, I've also typed myQry.

This, of course, when I click on Save, prompts me to create the fields manually in the report design.

Now, after creating the query fields manually, I try to run the query and nothing displays.

When I click on Report Query (Report -> Report Query), it loads the Simple Query window by default and when I click on the Advanced Query window, I SEE NOTHING!!!

I've tried to paste all the codes again inside this window and then saved it, but each time I go back to the Advanced Query window, all the codes have disappeared!!!

Is it some kind of bug with the Report Builder or what???

Please advise.

Thanks and regards,

displaying images in a ColdFusion Report (cfr)

July 5, 2006, 7:02 am

I am playing around with graphs and reports. The requirement is to be able to produce reports in PDF and/or RTF with graphs included. Overall cfdocument may be my solution but it does not have the rtf option.

One solution I was testing was using WebChart3D code to create the images and then passing the location of the images into a Cold Fusion Report for display. I did this by creating a simply query with one column holding the location of the three graphs I have. All the report does is display a single chart per page.*

This works great on my XP laptop but when I moved it to our linux box I get an error saying “No such file or directory”. I have checked both directory and file are there. And yes it lists the correct directory and file (case matched). So I am wondering if it is a permissions issue. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Joel

* Yes I know Report Builder allows you to create graphs. However, we have a requirement for the graphs themselves that so far I have not been able to meet using the Report Builder graphing tool even though it is quite good.

Multi Page Report

I am creating a report with report builder.

I have a report header.

This report is 3 pages long. After I get the content for the first
page, I add a page break.

2 problems. Once the detail band is longer than a page, the report
header is forced to page 1 by itself, like a page break magically
appears after the report header.

Also, At a certain point I am given an error:

Report design not valid : 1. The detail section, the page and column
headers and footers and the margins do not fit the page height.

How do I create a report that is 3 pages long, with specifically
placed page breaks, and a report header. The detail band should start
immediately after the report header(no page break after report
header).

TIA,

Report Builder Grid Size

I have some reports that I'm updating that were originally designed with the CF7 related builds of Report Builder. Those builds had an option to change the grid spacing. The CF8 related build doesn't seem to have that option and none of my report objects are aligning to the default 1/10 inch setting. This is pretty annoying becuase I can't easily line everything up anymore and the default grid/snap is too large for my needs. I recall the old spacing setting didn't really make much sense, but at least you could find a setting that gave you a space smaller than 1/10 of an inch.

Another thing I noticed, if you have 1 inch with 10 grid divisions, shouldn't the grid snap set objects at 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, ..., 1.9 inches? It is setting objects to 1.0, 1.0972, 1.1944, 1.2917, 1.3889, 1.5, 1.5972, 1.6944, 1.7917, 1.889, 2.0.

Ideally, I'd like to snap to 1/16 of an inch. In the older version, I think I used to set the spacing value to "3", whatever that meant.

Any way to have report prompt for parameters

June 19, 2006, 9:15 am
$

We have a simple web page that uses cfdirectory to list all of the .cfr files in a folder. Users can just click on the report that they want and then using an "<a href>" tag, the corresponding .cfr file is invoked and the user gets their report.

Reports that have input parameters are not working, though. They get "Error executing database query" and the query looks like this:

SELECT AgentType, AgentCode FROM dbo.Agent WHERE AgentType = param.AgentType ORDER BY AgentType, AgentCode

Is there any way that a user can link to a .cfr file that requires a parameter and have the .cfr prompt the user for the required parameter? My goal is to make a very simple report menu using cfdirectory where users can select from any .cfr file in a folder and then invoke the report even if that report needs input parameters.

Thank you

two CFREPORT tags in a template? in a loop?

Initially i wanted my CFREPORT block to be in a loop. I'm using RTF format. Only the first one runs.
So, I removed the loop and, for fun, put the CFREPORT blocks one after the other. Still, only the first one comes up.

Is this by design? Here's a simplified example of my blocks.

<!--- first --->
<CFREPORT format="RTF" query="#my_query#" template="rep.cfr" overwrite="no">
<CFREPORTPARAM name="rattyname" value="FIRST">
</CFREPORT>

<!--- second call immediately after --->
<CFREPORT format="RTF" query="#my_query#" template="rep.cfr" overwrite="no">
<CFREPORTPARAM name="rattyname" value="SECOND">
</CFREPORT>

Thanks!

Creating a function and passing query value

May 4, 2007, 9:59 pm

I have what I thought was a pretty easy to resolve situation: I want to concatenate two query fields, if the 2nd one isn't empty.

I created a function:

<cfargument name="q1" value='#query.q1#' />
<cfargument name="q1a" value='#query.q1a#' />

<CFSET variables.myPunct = ": ">
<cfset variables.ResultVar="">

<cfif Trim(arguments.q1) NEQ "">
<cfset variables.ResultVar='#arguments.q1#'>
</cfif>

<cfif Trim(arguments.q1a) NEQ "">
<cfif variables.ResultVar NEQ "">
<cfset variables.ResultVar='#variables.ResultVar & variables.myPunct#'>
</cfif>
<cfset variables.ResultVar='#variables.ResultVar & arguments.q1a#'>
</cfif>
<cfreturn variables.ResultVar>

This is basically just the example they provide in the online instruction, with the names changed.

In the detail band of my report, I have an expression builder field containing: report.mytestfunction()

When I run this, I get: Element Q1 is undefined in ARGUMENTS.

I've tried this ninety different ways (literally). It seems very clear to me that the query.q1 (for that matter, any of the query results) are NOT getting passed to the function. I have tried making the expression: report.mytestfunction(query.q1). I have tried creating an input parameter.

The documentation on this is ridiculously limited, considering that the ability to implement conditional logic depends entirely on the "function", as far as I can tell. I can in no way get the function to interface with the query results. If is set fixed values in the function, as opposed to trying to use the query variables, it outputs fine.

Any ideas?

cfdocument pdf word wrap and missing text

Why when I create a cfdocument PDF with a line of unbroken text do I end up with smaller text - see the below text and slap it into a cfdocument (for even worse results, see with format="flashpaper" ) Additionally, if I have reasonable text, but in a large quantites, which flows onto several pages, at the page break, I can have a variety of text missing behind the header and footer of the page break (works fine in FlashPaper) - is this a bug or is there some subtle way of wrapping this text appropriately?

FROM call_type, code_city, area_code, call_reason, cform, call_outcome, outcome_reason

I have verified all fields to make sure they match and when I try to test it CFR crashes...any idea as to why this may be happening? Thanks!

Alternative to Report Buidler

Anyone know of an alternative to Report Builder? I have some very complex documents and RB just doesn't seem to get the job done. It's excellent for basic reports but when it comes to rotated text, and complex grids I'm having lots of problems getting the output to look polished. I think RB is a huge step in the right direction but it seems that Adobe has left us stranded as far as support and updates.

Printing Crystal report from web

I am using crystal report 8.5 and Coldfusion MX 6.1
I open my report in a blank page. Everything show up properly.
However, in my report, I have 12 pages. When I print it it only show up as 1-2 pages. I notice that on screen, when I click next ( to go to the next page of the report ), the url show up as whatever my path is and the word "report" + the page -1 + htm

eg. If I am on page 2 of the report, my url would be
\\localhost\mywebfolder\report1.htm

Anyone have the same problem? Any solution?

* I am thinking of taking off the grouping in the report, see if that make any different!

cfreport tag issue

Hello all:

The online document says " * Run a predefined Crystal Reports report. Applies only to Windows systems. "
Does this mean if CF was installed on Unix-like OS then there would be no way to access rpt files from CFML pages?

And another question I encountered.
When attribute "report" is used in cfreport tag, cfreport seems not working at all.
So does CFMX 8 support Crystal Report v2008?

thanks in advance.

cfreport and large number of records

August 8, 2008, 7:36 am

Hi,

i try to use reporting over a large database and when the query returns a too large number of rows i get a 500 null error message

for example, i have a report that's supposed to display values for about 20 fields for 350 000 records
when i put a cfabort just before the cfreport tag, i can see that the query is executed in about 35 seconds (join query over 5 tables. One having over a million records) (the request timeout is set to 3600 seconds)
the error appears when cf tries to put the 350 000 records in the report (memory full, error 500 null and i need to restart coldfusion service)

does anyone have an idea about how to solve my problem?

(CFMX7, SQL SERVER 2005, 4GB of memory, intel xeon 3.4GHZ processor)

Thanks in advance

-------------------------------------------

Salut a tous,

j'essaie d'implementer des reports sur une grosse base de données
et quand le nombre de records est trop important je recois une erreur 500 et la memoire du serveur sature

exemple j'ai un report qui devrait me permettre d'afficher une 20aine de champs pour plus de 350 000 records (requete croisée sur 5 tables dont une table avec 1million de records)

si je mets un <cfabort> avant le <cfreport> je vois bien l'execution de la requete qui va bien rechercher mes 350.000 records (temps moyen d'execution 35 secondes)
c'est donc uniquement le chargement de ces 350.000 records dans le report que ca plante mais je n'ai aucune idée de ce que je pourrais faire pour eviter l'erreur 500 null en sachant que le requesttimeout est a 3600 secondes

si quelqu'un a une idée merci d'avance

"option has been disabled due to Coldfusion/Jrun4 has been detected on this system."
But I could not find any Coldfusion or Jrun4 installed on this system.
I tried couple of times on different AIX m/c still getting the same problem.
Can you please provide workaround for this.
