Image(chart) not display in HTML report [message #789589]

Fri, 03 February 2012 01:39

Eclipse User

Hi,

I am trying to generate report on server machine, and accessing it through web-service on client machine.

Through web-service I give call to the code which generate and returns report as a file, I save this file on my machine and use it further. When I choose HTML format; report generates HTML file with temp folder for .svg images, when I pull the report file(HTML)on my machine, the temp folder is still on server machine and it tries to find image source on my machine. If I open same HTML report on server it shows the chart.
I am trying to set ImageDirectory and BaseImageURL but its not working.

Please help me resolve the issue.

Thanks,
Deepali.

Are you setting the BaseImageURL to point back to the server where the
image resides?

Hi,

Thanks for your quick reply.

Below is my code that I have used to set image directory and imageURL for HTML report,
I have shared BIRTImages folder on server machine(Linux)

final RenderOption options = getRenderOptions(outputFormat);
if("html".equalsIgnoreCase(outputFormat)) {
((HTMLRenderOption) options).setImageDirectory("\\\\192.168.1.254\BIRTImages");
options.setImageHandler(new HTMLServerImageHandler());
((HTMLRenderOption) options).setBaseImageURL("file://///192.168.1.254/BIRTImages");
}

above code is working fine with windows machine, but when same code I tried on linux machine it's not showing chart image. And gives belows error...

6 Feb, 2012 9:51:17 AM org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.Image writeImage
SEVERE: /192.168.1.254/BIRTImages/customba86ef13550e4e3c31.svg (No such file or directory)
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /192.168.1.254/BIRTImages/customba86ef13550e4e3c31.svg (No such file or directory)

Please suggest me something which will work on both windows and linux machine.

Thanks,
Deepali.

if you open explored on the client machine and put in:
file://///192.168.1.254/BIRTImages
Does it open the share on the linux box? Are you using SAMBA on the
Linux box? Another option would be to setup tomcat on Linux and make
the url in a web context.

Hi,

Thank you very much for quick reply.

I tried to make image URL in tomcat by placing context path in tomcat/conf/server.xml inside the <Host> tag as below
<Context path="/images" docBase="/home/developer/images" />

It gives the error - resource not found /images.

I am using samba on linux machine (server machine).
If I explored file://///192.168.1.254/BIRTImages on client(windows) machine it gives list of images in browser. Same I tried in linux machine it gives me error url not found.

On linux First I mount the share folder and use the URL- file:///home/developer/.gvfs/BIRTImages on 192.168.1.254
It gives the list of images in browser.

Please suggest me something which will work on both windows and linux
As suggest by you I tried to make image url. That doesn't work.
Please tell me where I am going wrong.

Thanks,
Deepali.

If you do this:

I tried to make image URL in tomcat by placing context path in
tomcat/conf/server.xml inside the <Host> tag as below
<Context path="/images" docBase="/home/developer/images" />

and enter a url in a browser to http://server:port/images does it show
the list of images in the browser. If it does change your baseURL to be
http://server:port/images

Hi,

If I enter url http://server:port/images/ in the browser it gives me following error.

HTTP Status 404 - /images/
type Status report
message /images/
description The requested resource (/images/) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/7.0.19

Please guide.

Thanks,
Deepali.

Add the image name to the end of the url ie:
<Context path="/images" docBase="c:/test7/" />
http://localhost:8090/images/cc1.png
If this works you should be able to change the baseURL in the engine and
get it working.

The default xls emitter does not support images. You could look at
using the tribix xls emitter or

Hi,

Thank you very much.
All your suggestion worked for me,
native-excel-plugin also worked fine, similarly is there any plugin for doc and ppt format.

Thanks,
Deepali.

The tribix emitters handle ppt and doc I believe.

Hi,

I have one more problem. On linux machine report in doc and ppt format looks like xml tags. I download tribix jars, but dont know how to use it in the code.

I have gone through this page
http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/635978/?srch=birt+doc#msg_635978
on this page you have suggest to remove following plugins

org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.prototype.excel_2.6.1 .v20100812
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.excel.config_2.6.1.v2 0100812
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.ppt.config_2.6.1.v201 00812
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.ppt_2.6.1.v20100909

I am using jars of 3.7.1 version in that above jars are not available.
Please help me on this topic
When I open report.doc it looks like below,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?mso-application progid="Word.Document"?>
<w:wordDocument xmlns:w="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2003/wordml" xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:w10="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:dt="uuid:C2F41010-65B3-11d1-A29F-00AA00C14882" xmlns:wx="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2003/auxHint" xmlns:aml="http://schemas.microsoft.com/aml/2001/core" xml:space="preserve">
<o:DocumentProperties>

I tested same code on linux fedora and linux mint, on both machine got the same output with xml tags,
Please suggest me something.

Thanks,
Deepali.

They are suppose to be xml. That is the Word XML format. If you want
to use the Tribix emitter in 3.7. take a look at this post:
