Hi,

Embedded images in the rptdesign are not getting displayed after 4.2.2 upgrade from birt 3.7.0
Environment:

Windows XP
Weblogic 11g
Oracle 11g
Birt runtime - 4.2.2

Options that we tried :-

1.We have tried with setting URI to the image from javascript , this is working for PDF but not working for HTML

2.We have placed the image in webcontent but still not working

3.We have placed the image in defacult image dir ${birt_home}/report/image - still issue persist

Please suggest the way forward.


Thanks

So, this is just with the web viewer? You don't see the issue in the designer, correct?

I'm having this same issue. I have three images in my report. All are specified by including a full public URL in the URI specification in the designer. All show just fine in Report Designer and in preview in Report Designer. All three show in webviewer html mode using 'preview', but only two of the three show using any pdf output mode, or in webviewer frameset mode.

Can anyone help me solve this? TIA.

Eclipse Juno, Win7, BIRT 4.2.2 release, tomcat 6, complete newbie.

All images show fine when I call the report through Chrome, but if I try with IE, the PDF doesn't show URI images. I get, "The resource of this report item is not reachable". Is this what you're seeing? Let me know.

No, this is not what I'm seeing. I'm experiencing this in Chrome. When I use the web viewer and 'frameset' mode, there isn't even an image tag in the place where the third image is supposed to be in HTML output. The image is not there for pdf in either frameset or preview mode, but is there in html preview mode or in the report designer preview mode. It's not there in report designer run -> view as pdf

Can you create a report that I can run where you're seeing this and attach it, along with the image if needed. Thanks.

Hi Williams,

Issue is with web viewer not with designer.
Also PDF is working fine with embedded image issue is with respect to HTML view.

Note:We are not using HTMLRenderOption ,We are using default viewer to view html output.

Can one of you attach a report that's failing for them that I can run? I've not seen the same with any tests I've done besides what I noted above in IE. Thanks.

I've not seen a problem with this as of yet. If you can provide a sample report that will show me the issue, I might be able to help.

Hi Williams

Embedded image is not working for Birt 4.3 also.

Issue 1 : We are using weblogic 11 to deploy the reporting application and once the rptdocument gets generated with Birt 4.2.2 and we are using Birt 4.2.2 viewer to view the report from the application but we are unable to view the embedded images in newly created report (with 4.2.2)

Issue 2 : We are also facing issue with old reports which are generated with BIRT 3.7 and these reports are uploaded to the database as rptdocuments.
So, when we try to view these old reports with birt 4.2.2 viewer , the embedde image is not getting displayed

Note : Even if we use dynamic image we will face the same issue with old reports that are stored in DB with embedded image.


Observations :

1.Looks like it is not issue with Weblogic why because initially we have upgraded Weblogic to 11g without upgrading BIRT and tested all reports everything is fine.We have encountered this issue only after upgrading BIRT to 4.2.2

2.This is happening for any sample report we create using BIRT4.2.2.

3.We also tried birt 4.3 viewer , we are facing similar issue with latest 4.3 version.

Please find the attached sample report created using birt 3.7

Steps to reproduce :

1.Use this sample rptdesign and generate rptdocument using birt 3.7
2.Try to view the rptdocument with birt 4.2.2 and birt 4.3

example :
http://localhost:7001/reportViewer/run?__document = sample_embedded_image.rptdocument

if you use Birt 4.2.2 or Birt 4.3 viewer you will not be able to view the the embedded image

Created Bugzilla entry for this :

A high level summary to the issue.

We were in weblogic 11g/BIRT 3.7 earlier. We have some rptdocuments stored.
Now we would like to upgrade to BIRT 4.2.2. In DEV env we upgrade BIRT to 4.2.2. Now when we are trying to view older reports (generated in BIRT 3.7) but using BIRT 4.2.2 Viewer to view it, this issue pops up

if the birt report design file's XML source contains the image data, then below article may work.
What 's needed is a custom image handler to render the in-line image

http://www.first8.nl/using-image-with-pojo-birt-runtime/ 

 private void setupImageHandler(final HTMLRenderOption options) {
        options.setImageHandler(new HTMLServerImageHandler() {
            @Override
            protected String handleImage(IImage image, Object context, String prefix, boolean needMap) {
                String embeddedImage = Base64.encode(image.getImageData(), false);
                return "data:" + image.getMimeType() + ";base64," + embeddedImage;
            }
        });
    }

I know this is old, but just in case anyone else is looking for a solution. I experienced this issue with 4.5.0, and found it to be a permissions issue. Tomcat needs write access to the images directory because writes temp images for charts, etc. on the fly.
