receive the message below but the dataSet works and is available to fill a
report.
org.eclipse.jface.text.Assert$AssertionFailedException occurred
Assertion failed:

-with Data Set linked to an Oracle data source, I receive the message
below and the data set is not operational:

org.eclipse.birt.data.engine.core.DataException occurred
Error Code:DATA_EXCEPTION_odaconsumer.CannotGetResultSetMetaData
Error Code:DATA_EXCEPTION_odaconsumer.CannotGetResultSetMetaData
Error Message:Cannot get the result set metadata.
A JDBC Exception occured: statement handle not executed: getMetaData
statement handle not executed: getMetaData

Do you have any suggestions to make Data Set operational with oracle
datasources ?

Is it reasonnable to continue to test BIRT with Oracle or should I better
wait for a new BIRT release ?

Hi Thierry,

Can you please provide more details about your environment, and how to
reproduce the problem? We tried with an Oracle type 4 JDBC driver, and
could not reproduce it.
Please also provide the following:

1) JDBC Driver info and which jar files are specified in the
odaconfig.xml
2) Query Text
3) Oracle version
4) Do you have any parameters in the query?
5) Which BIRT build are you using?

Please also submit an entry in Buzilla for tracking purpose. Thanks.

Linda
BIRT Data Engine team lead

I had the same problem but then I changed drivers. Looks like this issue
pops up when you use the older classes12.zip driver. I did not have any
connection troubles when I used the new ojdbc14.jar driver.

I downloaded and installed the S20050404 release and now my test queries
on Oracle are OK. I can see my data in the Preview Results panel. Great !

BUT when I preview my report , I don't see any data. the page is filled
with column headings only.

Unfortunately I don't receive any error message during report filling.

The classes12.jar drivers are for use with jdk 1.2 and 1.3 - the ojdbc14.jar
drivers are for use with jdk 1.4.

This is exactly the behaviour that I reported in an earlier message
"Missing data in reports in S20050328".

Unfortuntately, I've got a project deadline coming up so haven't got any
time to spend looking into this till next week. But it looks like the
problem affects PostgreSQL as well as Oracle.

Hi Rich.

Did you copy the jdbc driver jars and the odaconfig.xml into the
eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.birt.report.viewer_0.0.1/birt-vi ewer/WEB-INF/plugins/drivers
folder.
The viewer runs in a separate process as it is a web application under
tomcat.
You will need to make a copy of the files under the viewer as well.

Thanks. I have just had a chance to try this and it works perfectly.

I think that this information really needs to be added to the JDBC
section at the bottom of this page:

http://www.eclipse.org/birt/index.php?page=build/install.htm l

Cheers

Rich & Others,

I tested out the issue of the engine not reporting DB errors. This does
indeed occur. I've asked the development team to implement error reporting
for such cases so we have a bit more info to help track down problems.
