I installed BIRT with tomcat and trying to test the default reports provided. In IE8 it is giving me error at attached. In Firefox, it is not displaying any report, instead the blank is appearing.

What port do you have tomcat running on? Port 80?
Can you try it on a different port like 8080?

Yeah its on 80.
I'll try to run it on 8080 but what may be the reasons for this issue...

The viewer uses AJAX and web services to update the frameset. I am
wondering if there is a port conflict. You could try using the preview
mapping instead of the frameset as well. I also noticed in the
screenshot that the image is trying to get to port 8086.

Thanks Jason for your quick tips,

As of now tomcat 6 is running behind Apache 2, can this be the reason? What changes will be required in Apache in this case?

You may need to change the base_url property. Take a look at:
http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t81144.html

You can also add it to the viewer.properties file I believe.
try something like
base_url=yoururltoapache/birt

Thanks Jason,

It is working fine with the changes but only in "preview". Frameset still shows same error.

Can you open a bugzilla entry for this? This should work by changing
the base url.

Now when we have removed Apache and using the tomcat directly, the same issue appears with frameset. Same as in attached file. Preview is fine. OS is RedHat.

Not exactly, first page doesn't load. After long time it starts loading with same result as attached in this post. Images don't come and with the shown script error. Firefox also keeps on loading, but never shows the report. Same issue in "run" mode as well. "Preveiw mode is fine".
This error is reproducible using the test report also as shown in attached image.

I do not have IE8, but it works fine on my FireFox. I wonder if this is
a permission error.

What type of permission you are mentioning? If its working with "preview", permission should be there, right?

Yes you are correct. The only real difference between the two /preview
and /frameset is that the frameset uses the AJAX framework that calls a
web service on the web app.

Security manager. Is the site secured? Or is this on your desktop?
Any chance you could try a clean download and a new deploy? If you use
firebug in firefox you should be able to verify that the base href has
the correct value.

It is secured. I'll try to deploy again. Can you give any reference of documentation on this, with mention of security steps. It has to be done on redhat.

I was referring to this bug:

I am not certain this is the same issue.
