I today downloaded the birtviewer toolkit, which has been updated since I
last downloaded it.
Hyperlinks to drill through to another report now work OK, but when I run
some reports (that work OK under the birt runtime) it displays the error "
The requested resource (iportal/activePortal/private/new
request/waitforexecution.jsp) is not available."
Waitforexecution.jsp is not in the zip file.

Is there a common scenario in these reports that give this error?

They connect to multiple databases all with the same attributes, connect
the data sets using joint data sets and display a crosstab from a cube
based on a joint data set.
The reports run OK in eclipse, are slow but eventually display in our
run-time 4.3.2 birt.war under jboss with Xmx set to 768. The reports were
originally developed under Helios and have been getting bigger as more
databases are linked.

I notice a difference between Helios and Kepler that datasets may be
evaluated in a different order in the viewer than they are in the eclipse
designer - I saw your note that if the order is important put text fields
in the body.

is the toolkit compatible with Kepler? It would be nice if the toolkit had
a version...

Waitforexecution is listed in the documentation, but I'm not clear what it
does.

Yes, the toolkit was made to work with the latest version when it was released, which was 4.3.2 (Kepler). It should also work with 4.4 with no issues, I would think.

It probably wouldn't be easy to create a report that I can run that gives you this issue so I can see it on my end, is it? Is there a fairly distinct amount of time that it tries to render the report and then this error pops up? Maybe there is a timeout set in the web.xml that will help get around it.

Also, I see this in the Actuate Java Components documentation as a forward page for a "wait". Which documentation did you see this is? Actual BIRT Viewer Toolkit documentation? Can you point me to it. Either way it stands, this appears to be a bug whether it's missing a jsp page or doing a forward that it's not supposed to do.

Let me know if there is a set time, like 20 seconds or something that goes by, then this happens. Thanks.

Unfortunately not.

That's where I saw it.

Yes, the default timeout in the web.xml for EXECUTE_REPORT_WAIT_TIMEOUT is
20 seconds. If I increase it to 120 the error pops up after 2 minutes.
If I increase it to 360 I get the pop-up "Report generation failed. Cause:
{0}"

I will try to optimize the report...
