Hello,

Please suggest deployment options available for BIRT. I would like to access reports from android based mobile.

Hello.

1) Download the All-in-one package http://download.eclipse.org/birt/downloads/ or the RCP Designer.
Both can be used to design your reports or adapt the example reports provided with WinCC OA.

2) You could use the built-in Jetty Webserver from the All-in-one package but there are better options.
Tomcat (or any other J2EE Server like JBoss) is one of them, have a look at our product help or http://www.eclipse.org/birt/documentati ... -setup.php
Reportserver.net (https://reportserver.net/en/) is also a good & free choice since it additionally offers scheduling/dashboarding/user management etc

To access your report (from any device) you just have to access the birt viewer engine on your webserver(e.g. http://192.168.1.1:8080/birt-viewer/fra ... .rptdesign).

Best regards

Hello,

Please let me know whether changing target namespace from urn:Siemens.OA to ABC in Reporting.wsdl is allowed or not?

Hello.

Changing the namespace is allowed and doesnt have an impact on the functionality of the reporting manager.

Hello Robert,

xmlns:tns="urn:ABC"

and additionally modified:

Hello,

Is there any setting related with "Access Control Allow Origin"? I am trying to access information from Reporting manager and getting error:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://10.7.15.160/. (Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing).

Please suggest if Access-Control-Allow-Origin can be configured in WinCC OA Reporting manager.

Best Regards,

Hello.

Changing the name spaces works fine, pls see the atteched/modified wsdl.file (change it from .txt to .wsdl)
Changing the method names is not allowed.

Are you using the reportserver.net environement?

The error describes, that you cant get Data from another domain, which is the default/secure way.

There is no option for this in reporting manager, you might need to set it in the webserver(?) config
e.g. https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-do ... ORS_Filter https://www.winccoa.com/fileadmin/image ... orting.txt

Thanks Robert! I am not using Tomcat, I am trying to access information without web server using some custom reporting pages and facing issue related with CROS. Any workaround to handle this issue?

Hello.

Sorry, i have no idea what your custom reporting pages are or where they are located in your system environment.
Please provide more information on what your setup is and what you are trying to achieve.

Best regards,
