The goal of the WebTier is to produce content that a web browser can render
without requiring a proprietary plug-in / ActiveX type of technology that
must be downloaded.
ReportBuilder's output to the web browser consist of… -

Sorry, but the capability to modify the web viewer is currently limited to
what is shown in the demo.

On the Server the NoDataBehaviors settings for ndBlankPage and
ndDisplayDialog are not supported. Instead ndBlankReport is used.
This is necessary because ndBlankPage does not result in any TppPage object
being created. In… -
As mentioned in my post above, the Server is going to force a
NoDataBehaviors setting of ndBlankReport so that the Client always receives
a page back from the server.
You may want to configure the reports with the ndBlankR… -
You are really asking an HTML/HTTP question. HTTP supports types of
requests, HTTP Get and HTTP Post.
1. Here is an example of a Get
in Passing huge string parameters through WebTier app Comment by nardmoseley May 2004 -
You need to use an HTTP Post method rather than a Get method. A Get method
has a length limitation, but a Post does not.
Typically a Post method is used to submit a form.
The WebTier's AutoSearch forms use a Post. He… -
In my testing here I cannot reproduce any issue. My test is to run the main
demo server (RBServer\Demos\Servers\01. Main), the demo WebTier ISAPI
project (RBServer\Demos\Web Tier\ISAPI), and the main client explorer demo
(\RBSer… -
We have recreated the issue here and are researching it...

There can be only one report server .exe registered at a time. You must
include rsServerActiveX in the uses clause of the server .exe. This enables
the server .exe to be registered as a COM application.
There are two ways … -
There is one patch available for RB 7.03 Server. It corrects an issue with
the server treating an ESocketError as a fatal error. Send a request to
support@digital-metaphors.com for the patch.
Our demo server never crashes,… -
That simply means that the socket connection timed out. See my response to
your prior post.
If you are debugging you will almost always receive this exception because
the client times out waiting for the server response an… -
Thanks for your interest in ReportBuilder.
1. The overall feature set is quite comparable. ReportBuilder is superior to
Crystal Reports in that is a native Delphi object class library that can be
tightly integrated into De… -
We have not yet performed any tests with the TeeChart 7.01 beta.
If you try testing with TeeChart 7.01, please post the results here.

in Crash Server 7.04 Build 2 Comment by nardmoseley September 2004 -
There is a known issue with TeeChart using certain types of series, for
example a function series that references another series. TeeChart does not
properly manage object references. This results in exceptions/AV's occurring

Its frustrating I realize that. We have many customers using ADO and SQL
Server successfully to build report servers. If you think you have a bug in
ADO, then try creating an example that uses ADO and MS Access data. You can

The call stack is not really very helpful.
We really need an example that we can run. Or if you can duplicate the issue
with our demo apps.
For debuggins, one option is to run the report server as a Delphi

For anyone following this thread, Larry now has the WebTier working
properly!
The problem was the WebTier configuration settings for WebCachePath and
WebModuleURI. Here is example, taken from the online help, of what these… -
Thanks for the feedback, it is appreciated...
We'll look at adding some clarifications for the next release.

Please zip up your WebTier project and zip up the Cache Directory, including

Larry, sorry if you are frustrated. Sounds like you are very close to having
a fully functional WebTier.
I am assuming that you have an empty frameset displayed in the web browser
and that the ListView and TreeView html pa… -
Use your web browser to to display the page with the empty frames. Then
perform a

ListView.htm. These are generated by the RB WebTier and should corresp… -
Try following the ReadMe.doc information and the example installed to
RBServer\Demos\WebTier\Apache. As explained in the ReadMe you need to use
WebBroker to create an Apache shared module.

That indicates the you have some RAP code in the Global OnCreate event of

Check out the RBServer Custom Parameters demos. There are Server,

1. Check the WebTier.LogSettings and that you have abialble disk space on
the machine.

I researched this and have created a patch file for RB 7.04. The error was
caused by the WebTier not initializing itself properly, prior to some
methods such as GetReportParameters and GetSessionForRequest being called.

1. The WebTier cannot be used to implement a CGI application.
The WebTier is designed to support ISAPI, ASP, or Apache Shared Modules.
Examples are installed to RBServer\Demos\WebTier. Each example includes a

Ok, now I understand why you cannot compile.
