Setting up BIRT Viewer to work with a local instance of (say) Tomcat, using a workspace that Tomcat can access, etc., is not quite the simple solution I was hoping for.
We do use BIRT Viewer to render our reports in our application - and we use the Ant "sync" task to update reports (from an Eclipse workspace to a Tomcat webapps context) during development, which is a good workaround for when a BIRT report is already wired into an application that can (in turn) be used to invoke the report. (You do not even have to re-start Tomcat to see the changes, which is cool.)
What I was hoping for was a standalone solution whereby a developer does not need to be running Tomcat (or any other Servlet container) with BIRT Viewer deployed, etc.
I am sure that at one time the BIRT Viewer feature worked out-of-the-box, but I could be wrong about that.

What is more, with Java 7 the "Preview" function now fails - nothing is displayed.
I had the "Preview" function working with Java 8 after setting the following two properties in the "eclipse.ini" file:

The problem I have is with Eclipse running on its own.
It should be possible to select "Run -> View Report -> In Web Viewer" and see a BIRT Viewer rendition of the report currently open in Eclipse.
I seem to recall that - a good while back - this used to work .
With Java 7 it *almost* works - the BIRT Viewer "window" (header, buttons, etc.) renders, but the report fails to display.
Am I correct in thinking that selecting "Run -> View Report -> In Web Viewer" should display my report - with Eclipse running on its own, and default settings?

Yes, you should be able to run the web viewer using the method you say above. You'll probably need to go to the Preferences -> Report Design -> Preview and select to use external browser for it to work properly with Java 7. Let me know.]]>Michael Williams2014-06-05T15:08:05-00:00Re: View Report in Web Viewer Error

When I tried this with Java 8, I get the same error message as I originally posted:
HTTP ERROR: 500
Problem accessing /viewer/frameset. Reason:
Server Error

So I guess it is back to Java 7 for us

This is Rajat...
I also faced this problem and got a resolved it by below steps :
1) Lower down your browser setting by going in to "internet option" in 'Security'
lower down the level of 'internet' and 'trusted sites' to medium/low.
2) In eclipse go into 'Windows' - > 'Perferences' -> 'Report Design' - > 'Preview' - > 'Preview Server' and type 'localhost' in first tab (Host name) and click apply.
Please try this...
It got working for me... ]]>Rajat Khedekar2015-07-02T07:07:30-00:00Re: View Report in Web Viewer Error

also
Go to Eclipse - > Windows - > Preferences - > Report Design - >Preview - >Preview Server and type 'localhost' in first tab (host name)
or
else install latest internet explorer 11]]>Rajat Khedekar2015-07-02T09:49:33-00:00
