Excel Report JSP Exception
395671Jun 13 2003 — edited Jun 20 2003Hello All,
I am unsuccessfully following the "Output to Excel with Oracle9i Report" tutorial found at http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/index.html to create a web-based JSP report that automatically opens in Excel within the browser. I created the template using Excel, saved this as a web page, opened this in Reports Builder, etc. Once I complete the report in Reports Builder and save it as a Reports JSP, I can successfully run this within Reports Builder using the "Run Web Layout" feature. The problem is when I try to run this JSP within my web-application in JDeveloper using the in-line reports server. The browser launches Excel, but then the ReportsTag.doStartTag() method throws a JspException (see below). Anyone seen this problem or been successful achieving this? I have a normal web-based JSP report that is running fine within JDeveloper using the reports in-line server. Also, the only way I could get my web/paper-based report to be generated in PDF format and Paginated HTML was to start a separate reports server and submit my report to the rwservlet of this server. Shouldn't I be able to use the in-line server in JDeveloper? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
