I call the report(.rdf) from my form passing through..
(http://host:port/reports/rwservlet?report=myrep.rdf).

I want to call the report using only (report=repname.rdf).
Because a lot of developers are working with forms and reports and we have 4 Application servers and one database Server.

Is there any option in formsweb.cfg or related file where i define rep_server=http://host:port/reports/rwservlet? parameter and it visible in every form.....
Or any other solution.

Hi,

Is there any reason why you are not using run_report_object to run the report?

If you want the URL to be used by all the forms why not store it in the DB?

Either you do load balancing with the OAS Reports.

Or you create a system-information-specific table that holds
information on what report server to use.

I kinda miss the &server parameter or what it is called. The parameter that tells what report server to run upon.

When you invoke the reports URL from forms, which forms package/command are you using?

When I do web.show_document("/url/webpage.html") it prefixes the AS specific "http://host:port" address to it. This way you don't have to worry about picking your AS.

currently I am using run_report_object.
The procedure that is given on this forum.
But I have to get data within variable from a database table
For example I have a table in DB app_param. which have column(rep_server_path,rep_server)
having data ( http://apps:7778/reports/rwservlet?,rep_apps)
It is specified only one server. I want to run the same forms application from another AS i.e. apps2.

Now how I can do it.

No. The procedure 'given on this forum' is 'wed.show_document'. Use it and save yourself a world of pain.

I have come to know we can use report server name in cgicmd.dat file. Just define a key for all reports. This key have rep_server=server name.

But how to fix the address....

Have you solved your problem? Have you researched load balancing in the 'Application Server' forum? Have you discussed your problem with your application server manager and have they told you how load balancing works and how a single server address can access multiple servers?
