The report works fine until I set up the following in web.xml:

<context-param>
<param-name>DB_URL</param-name>
<param-value>jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1/db</param-value>
</context-param>

I placed $DB_URL in rep.rptdesign:

<oda-data-source extensionID="org.eclipse.birt.report.data.oda.jdbc"
name="server">
<property name="odaDriverClass">org.postgresql.Driver</property>

<property name="odaURL">$DB_URL</property>

<property name="odaUser"><value-of>user</value-of></property>
<encrypted-property name="odaPassword">psw</encrypted-property>
</oda-data-source>

Felipe,
Have you tried something like this?
Put this code in the beforeOpen script in the data source.

dburltest = Packages.java.lang.System.getenv("DB_URL");
extensionProperties.odaURL = dburltest + "";

This will not read it from the context, but if you set it in the system
environment variables it should read it.
