Hi,

I have developed a empty birt report that calls the initialize event handler for the report. This event handler dynamically creates the DataSource, Dataset and Report contents. I am currently testing on a Tomcat server using the Birt Runtime 2.6. I ran a batch file to call my report 40 times one right after another and all of the reports were created successfully. If I try to load 8 files asynchronisly I get random errors like "Can not load the report query: 372. Errors occurred when generating the report document for the report element with ID 372. ", "Page hint could not be loaded", and blank pages are just a few. Sometimes all of the reports are created successfully. I am confused why these errors are happening. Has anyone had simular issues with Birt? Thanks in advance with any suggestions that you may offer.

Thanks,

Marc

Marc,

Any chance you could move the event handler to the beforeFactory instead
of initialize? beforeFactory is only called once per report. Depending
on how you are rendering initialize can be called many times.

Jason,

I moved my code to the BeforeFactory of the Report and I still see the same random errors with no rhyme or reason. Thanks in advance for any suggestions that you may be able to offer.

Thanks,

Marc

Marc,

How are you running the reports?

Jason,

I have the report inside a report folder inside of a Birt runtime running in Tomcat. My report has one event handler for the report level (BeforeFactory). The BeforeFactory method calls the BuildReport method below:

private void buildReport(IReportContext reportContext) throws IOException,
SemanticException {
ReportDesignHandle rd = null;
String vname = "";
String vtype = "";
String vnumber = "";
//logger.error("buildReport: ");
try {
elementFactory = reportContext.getReportRunnable()
.getDesignHandle().getElementFactory();
rd = (ReportDesignHandle) reportContext.getReportRunnable()
.getDesignHandle();

rd = buildDataSource(rd);

vname = reportContext.getParameterDisplayText("VendorName");
vnumber = reportContext.getParameterDisplayText("VendorNumber");
vtype = reportContext.getParameterDisplayText("ServiceType");
rd = buildDataSet(rd, vname, vnumber, vtype);

// get a reference to the ElementFactory
LabelHandle label;
label = getLabelHeader();

TableHandle table = elementFactory.newTableItem("table",
cols.length);

table = setTableSettings(table);

table.setWidth("100%");

table.setDataSet(rd.findDataSet("ds"));

table = buildExpressions(table);

// table header
table = buildTableHeaders(table);

// table detail
table = buildRowData(table);

rd.getBody().add(label);
rd.getBody().add(table);

} catch (Exception e) {
logger.error(new StringBuffer("buildReport method error: ")
.append(e.toString()));

}

}

This code is placed in my WEB-INF classes folder. Please let me know if you need more information. Thanks for your help.

Thanks,

Marc

Marc,

What version of BIRT are you using and are you using the viewer?
Do you get the same set of errors if you do not use an event handler?

Jason,

I am using Tomcat 6.0.32 and Birt Runtime 2.6.2. I use http://localhost:8080/birt-viewer/frameset?__report=report/Dynamic_Vendor.rptdesign to call my report. It appears that some times my code is never executed. I placed a logger statement at the beginning of my event handler and sometimes I never see the log statement. I removed my Event handler from my report and ran the same test. Most of the time it renders the empty report. One time I ran it said that it could not render the report "Failed to open report". This is one of the error that keep popping up.

Thanks,

Marc

Marc,

Any chance you could open a bugzilla entry for this? Give the details
on what package or method you are using to stress test it.

Jason,

I sure will I will do it first thing in the morning. Do you think this is a bug in BIRT that is causing me issues? Thanks for your help.

Thanks,

Marc

Marc,

I am not certain this is a bug but if we can reproduce it we will be
able to find out.

Jason,

Thanks for your help. I opened a ticket with bugzilla last night with the information that I have talked to you about.

Thanks,

Marc Marshall
