1. Have you worked thru the tutorials in the Developers Guide and examined
the demos such as the RBServer\Demos\Servers\Explorer Databases\Interbase.
2. From your description it sounds like you have the Database connection

You can access the parameters using the aEventParams object that is passed

If Grid pack and Waler work together in a standard RB application then they

As a test, comment out all event-handler code associated with the report.
Make sure that you do not have any event-handler code that manipulates the

I think if you run the report in a standard application you will see the
same behavior. This is not related to the server.
You need to use the TppVariable component and its OnCalc event to perform

1. I provide you a downloadable example that shows how to extract the TdaSQL

Based on your description I think you want to use SessionParameters to

A server application can only listen to a single port.
A server can contain multiple report volumes. Perhaps you can define a

Thanks for your interest in ReportBuilder Server.
You are encountering a limitation of the trial version. The trial version is

This is a tough one for me to diagnose. There has to be a difference between

Do you get a page not found error? or just empy pages.
An empty page would indicate that no report volumes are registered with the

This sounds like a timing issue that we discovered recently. It is possible
for the WebTier methods to be called before the WebTier has initialized
itself. There is a patch available for RB 7.04. I just emailed you the
patch.
Thanks for the feedback. You are correct, there is currently no way to
internactively monitor server or webtier activity.
There is a Server log file and there is a WebTier log file. In the case of
the webtier there is a Lo…

This message has been handled in the general newsgroup. Please do not cross
post messages.
The focus of this server newsgroup is questions about building report server
solutions using ReportBuilder Server Edition.
