BI Publisher Reports and No Data Found

tfaFeb 25 2008 — edited Jul 12 2011
Hi,

My app has a page that submits a BI Publisher report (APEX Advanced Reporting). It is possible for a user to submit a report with a combination of item values (parameters) that does not return any data. Rather then showing an error or information message of "no data found" a generic message is shown to the users. The message is confusing to the users and does not communicate the issue.

The bogus error message reads: "Adobe Reader could not open 'myreport.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (form example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

Has anyone else encounter this issue? How did you work around it?

Thanks,
Todd
