WebElements: configuring pass-through html on server

[Former Member]

We ran into a problem trying to deploy the pass-through html setting on BusinessObjects XI.  We followed the instructions in the webElements User Guide 2.47.  For Java based environment.

Added a context-param to web.xml in <BOE install dir>\Tomcat55\webapps\Crystal Reports\WEB--INF.  Then, we tried to redeploy BOE web application: wdeploy tomcat55 -DAPP=BOE deployonly

This failed with "APP property not set" in /deployment/wcommon.xml:66.  Apparently, there is no BOE.properties file, so we may have used the wrong APP setting in wdeploy.

Looking again at the guide, it could be that a .war file needs to be redeployed as an application from the deployment console (I didn't have access to this).

I also saw "instructions" searching the community where CrystalReports.properties would also have to be appended with pass-through html, after stopping tomcat.

We'd appreciate your help!

Thanks

hi Roger,

for xi & xir2 you have to use the 2.46 version. once you download that version check the JavaParams.txt file on setting the context parameter for pass-through in the appropriate web.xml file.

Download webElements for Crystal Reports XI & Crystal Reports XI Release 2
