List parameter iPortal problem
amit5094
Hi,
I have a report with some parameters. The parameter page has one dynamic List based parameter which has values populated from a DataSet.
The report runs fine in eclipse BIRT viewer. But when I deploy the report on iPortal, the List parameter is shown as text box parameter.
We are using Actuate 9 Service Pack 3 Fix 3 (Build 90F080320).
Thanks in advance,
Amit.

Hi Amit:
What version of eclipse BIRT did you use to create the report? Could you attach a sample design(using the classic models sample database) that I could use to recreate the issue at my end?
Thanks,
Ashwini

Ashwini,
We are using the Eclipse BIRT Designer Version 2.2.2.r222_v20071226 Build <2.2.2.v20080317-0630>
I tried to create a similar report (ClassicSampleReportDesign.rptdesign) on the classic database. And it works fine(even in iPortal) with that.
However when i try with my report(TestVendorResponses.rptdesign) it still shows as textbox in the iPortal.
ClassicSampleReport design - I pass productCode as a hidden parameter, and create a list parameter for all those customers who have ever order for those products and then when the user will select the customers, he will get a list of orders for those customers.
TestVendorResponses - Similar report the above just with different tables.
Thanks,
Amit

HI Ashwini,<br />
<br />
Kind of figured out the problem (still looking for solution). This is actually related to the ConnProfileURL parameter. Since i am using dynamic connection profile method to connect. I pass the connection profile as a parameter. The connection profile xml file is stored at E:/Actuate/ConnectionProfile.xml on iPortal server. The value i pass to the parameter is "E:/Actuate/ConnectionProfile.xml" from my application i get the following exception<br />
Nov 11, 2008 2:08:24 PM org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda.profile.provider.ProfilePropertyProviderImpl getProfileStoreFile<br />
WARNING: getProfileStoreFile( String ): java.net.MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: d<br />

WARNING: getProfileStoreFile( Properties ): Ignoring the PROFILE_STORE_FILE_PATH_PROP_KEY value in connection properties. The specified path does not exist in file system<br />
<br />
I tried a few others to URL file://E:/Actuate/ConnectionProfile.xml and so on but none of them work. <br />
<br />
Can we get the path based on the installed directory of Actuate using scripts.<br />
<br />
I saw the following post but i don't want it relative to the report<br />

Hi Amit,<br />
<br />
The problem is resolved in the new release(version 10) of iPortal. I was able to specify the absolute path of the connection profile<br />
You can download it from here:<br />
