Integrating Remote Report Server With WebLogic 14.1.1 by a WAR File

This topic describes an example of using JSPs based on Remote Server APIs to integrate with WebLogic 14.1.1.

Assume that:

  • You installed WebLogic in C:\bea on computer A.
  • You installed Report Server in C:\LogiReport\Server on computer B. The computer IP is 127.0.0.1.

The procedure for integrating remote Report Server with WebLogic contains the following major steps:

  1. Generate the WAR file
  2. Configure Report Server
  3. Deploy the WAR file

Step 1: Generate the WAR file

  1. On computer B, use the tool makewar.bat to build the Report Server WAR file as defined by makewar.xml for remote integration. Both makewar.bat and makewar.xml are in C:\LogiReport\Server\bin. Run the following commands in DOS window and Server saves the generated WAR file remote.war to the directory C:\LogiReport\Server\bin\distribute.

    makewar.bat buildRemoteWar -Djrs.remote.host=127.0.0.1 -Djrs.remote.rmiport=1129 -Djrs.rmi.auth_file=C:\LogiReport\Server\bin\rmi.auth

  2. Copy the rmi.auth file from C:\LogiReport\Server\bin on computer B to C:\LogiReport\Server\bin on computer A.

Step 2: Configure Report Server

  1. Make sure you have started Report Server at least once so that Server generated the server.properties file.
  2. Change the server.properties file in C:\LogiReport\Server\bin:

    server.rmiserver.enable=true
    server.rmiadminservice.enable=true

Step 3: Deploy the WAR file

  1. If you have not already created a WebLogic Domain for Report Server, you must create one before starting the integration.
  2. On computer A, start WebLogic by running startWeblogic.sh in C:\bea\user_projects\domains\domain_name\bin.
  3. On computer B, access the WebLogic Administrative Console using the URL http://hostname:7001/console/, where hostname is computer A's host name or IP address, and 7001 is the port number.
  4. After you sign in, in the Domain Structure panel on the left, select Deployments node.
  5. In the Summary of Deployments panel, select Install.
  6. In the Install Application Assistant panel, select the upload your file(s) link.
  7. In the Deployment Archive section, select Browse to select the remote.war file in C:\LogiReport\Server\bin\distribute, and then select Next.
  8. Keep selecting Next until the Finish button is enabled, and then select Finish.
  9. Start Report Server on computer B.
  10. Go to computer A and access Report Server using the following URL:

    http://localhost:7001/remote/
