Simple Javascript file not accessed on iServer

millvall

I don't if this a bug or I am not placing my .js file in the correct directory on the server.

SYNOPSIS:
Using an HTML Button which calls a function in an external .js file.
** Works great in BRDPro 10sp1 ** Fails when deployed to iServer.
simple.js is accessed from client side, not during report gen/rendering.

simple.js deployed as follows:
On BRDPro box:
C:Program FilesActuate10BRDProeclipsepluginscom.actuate.birt.report.viewer_2.3.2.v20081204iportal
On iServer
C:Program FilesActuate10iServerservletcontaineriportaljs
(Same place I have deployed other js files with successful access from BIRT reports.)

Am I deploying simple.js to the correct folder in iServer? Or is it different when using JSAPI?
Ultra simple report design and JS attached.

Thanks
Milt.

Note:
* See HTML Button, onClick method.
* Text element ensure simple.js is loaded/

Hi Milt,
You should add the .js file to your BIRT design as a resource. (Property Editor -> Resources -> Javascript files). You should not require to place your .js file to:
C:Program FilesActuate10BRDProeclipsepluginscom.actuate.birt.report.viewer_2.3.2.v20081204iportal

When you deploy your BIRT report to iServer then upload your .js file to resources folder of your encylopedia volume (generally /Resources) and make sure you give the right previleges to it.

I am attaching a sample BIRT report that uses a scripted datasource to create a dataset. Scripts are defined in a separate .js file that is added as a resource to the design. Hope this helps.
