BIRT Viewer 2.5.1 ISSUE [message #629924] Thu, 30 September 2010 00:53 Go to next message

I'm new in BIRT. I created a couple of reports running fine from ECLIPSE (Helios)

When I try to run the same projects using BIRT VIEWER 2.5.1 on Apache/Tomcat 5.5.30 doesn`t work. I tested the BIRT VIEWER installation with the sample and runs fine. However, my own reports just display the popup window with the message "Processsing, please wait..." and never ends.

I don't know what kind of logs to check or how to troubleshoot the issue. One of the reports is a simple list with 5 columns an less than 200 records.

Thanks.

Helios contains BIRT 2.6. Can you download the 2.6 runtime and deploy
the viewer it contains to tomcat and give it a try?

Hi Jason,

Thank you very much for your answer.

I tried with the version 2.6 of the runtime and I have the same symptom. Actually, it happens even with the test example.

I don't know if my issue is related to my OS. I am using Windows 7- 64 bits. Should I try a different Apache/Tomcat version?

Thanks again.

Juan Diego

Did you use the 2.6. or 2.6.1 runtime. I just tried the 2.6.1 runtime
with tomcat 5.5.20 with no issue. I have the same OS as you.

I tried 2.6.1. Should I try Apache 5.5.20?

Thanks a lot, again!

Are you getting anything in the \webapps\WebViewer\logs
directory?

I just tried tomcat 6.0.20 and had no issues.

The file ReportEngine_2010_09_30_13_27_30.log shows:

2010-09-30 13:29:23 org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.RenderTask render
GRAVE: There is insufficient memory to execute this report.

It seems that this is the problem. How do I increase the available memory for BIRT?

Thanks.

Look in the catalina.bat file and edit the JAV_OPTS like below.

if not exist "%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\tomcat-juli.jar" goto noJuli
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
:noJuli

Hi Jason,

I just looked at your last suggestion now. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the file catalilna.bat. Is it because my Apache is running as a service?

Thanks.

There should be a tomcat5w.exe in the tomcat bin.
Run it and select the java tab and enter
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
in the Java Options box.

Hi Jason,

Thanks. I found the .exe file but when I try to execute it I get "access denied" (or something like that, it is in French), "unable to open the service 'tomcat5'".

I tried stopping the service or having it up and didn't work. I am suppose to be the Administrator for the machine.

Sorry for bothering so much. I am a newby on Apache/Tomcat too.

Thanks again.

Juan Diego

Juan,

It sounds like you do not have admin rights on the machine. You could
always download tomcat zip file instead of service and run the bat file
to start it up.

Hi Jason,

Solved. Tomcat 5.5.31 installed just as a folder and starting thourg startup.bat. Modified catalina.bat according to your instructions.

I really appreciate your help. Thanks.
