Birt runtime - from http://localhost/birt/
Viewer Version : 2.1.2
Engine Version: 2.1.2
View Example link works fine.
I have 2 .rptdesign files that were previously written for Viewer:
2.1.1/Engine: 2.1.1 these continue to work fine with the newly installed
Viewer: 2.1.2/Engine: 2.1.2.
From the viewer both of these successfully connect to a local MySQL DB
instance, retrieve the data, render the report, convert to .pdf no
problems.
From the viewer customers.rptdesign downloaded from
http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/tutorial/basic/ also runs fine.
So my viewer appears to be working properly.
BUT, after very carefully following the tutuorial (at the link above), the
rptdesign file I end up with works fine from Eclipse using any of the
preview options, but does NOT work from the viewer.
All that's rendered in the browser is the error: The design file
file:/x:/x/x/x/x/./x/birt.war/report/Customers.rptdesign has error and can
not be run.
The ReportEngine_*.log file in BIRT_VIEWER_DEPLOY_BASE\logs contains
nothing after the above error message is rendered in the browser.
I've also created another very simple .rptdesign that again works fine
(connects to local MySQL instance, accepts parameters, generates different
output based on parameters, renders properly) from Eclipse using any of
the preview options, but does NOT work from the viewer.
Again, all that's rendered in the browser is the error: The design file
file:/x:/x/x/x/x/./x/birt.war/report/local_all.rptdesign has error and can
not be run.
Again, the ReportEngine_*.log file in BIRT_VIEWER_DEPLOY_BASE\logs
contains nothing after the above error message is rendered in the browser.
So I appeal to you for help. I have no error logs to go on and don't know
what the problem is.
I would be more than happy to email or copy/paste any of the .rptdesign
files mentioned above, or provide any further information if you have
questions.
I am comparing the 2 versions (one downloaded from the link I mentioned
above, one the result of following the tutorial) of customers.rptdesign in
an attempt to understand why the downloaded one works fine in the viewer
and the tutorial one does not.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated, and I offer my thanks in
advance.

To enable logging set the viewer log level in
<eclipse-install>\plugins\org.eclipse.birt.report.viewer_<version >\birt\WEB-INF\web.xml
to something like WARNING or FINEST. The logging of the viewer is disabled
(OFF) as a default.
web.xml:
....
<!-- Report engine log level -->
<context-param>
<param-name>BIRT_VIEWER_LOG_LEVEL</param-name>
<param-value>WARNING</param-value>
</context-param>
....
Then restart.

Just an update, the problem WAS a version issue.
The viewer version must not exceed the Report Design Framework version.
Hope this helps any other noobs who may have used the Eclipse auto update
feature to update their Birt RDF.
Thanks for the help with the logging!
