Hi,

BIRT 2.6.1
IE 8
Tomcat 6 and Websphere 6
URL https://localhost:8443/spear/frameset/admin?__showtitle=fals e&__locale=en_AU&__report=admin/organisationSummary. rptdesign

When I generate a report using the above URL, it renders fine, however I notice the following exceptoin in the logs. Doesn't happen if I'm using Chrome. Any ideas?

Thanks, Josh.

Josh,

Are you using a modified version of the Viewer?
admin is not a servlet mapping in the viewer.

Hi Jason,

Yes, it is a *slightly* modified version of the viewer application. The reports are secured via standard web.xml <security-constraint> entries, hence the url relating to 'admin'. The reports there are for admin only.

Having now put in some more logging, I can see the errors are due to the browser (IE) calling back (after the initial call) for the *.js resources, as per:-
https://localhost:8443/spear/frameset/birt/ajax/ui/dialog/Bi rtSimpleExportDataDialog.js

Because the 'frameset' is in those URL's, the ViewServlet gets invoked and it goes off looking for report parameters in the URL, which it can't find.

The interesting thing is that the callbacks are not shown in my logging when using Chrome, which explains the difference.

All that said, I'm still at a loss as to (a)how to get rid of these errors, and (b)why the behavior if different between browsers.

Thanks. Josh.

The AJAX framework is using web service calls back to the viewer servlet
to get the parameter data. I believe the chrome issue may have already
been reported:

I was aware of that Chrome bug, however I don't think it's related to this issue. In fact, as mentioned, Chrome is working fine, it's actually IE that's reporting the errors.

I've found that if I add the following to org.eclipse.birt.report.servlet.ViewerServlet, the errors are no longer reported:-

	@Override
	public void service(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException
	{
		if (!((HttpServletRequest)req).getRequestURL().toString().endsWith(".js"))
		{
			super.service(req, res);
		}
	}

Is this something you might like committed?

Can you open a bugzilla entry and suggest this mod?
