NetXMS Support Forum

Hi,

Could you please tell me how to configure the reporting server feature?
I'm running 1.2.16. could not find anything in the documentation (yet).

Thanks,
Edward

I'm actually writing this piece of documentation right now. Will be available here later today.

Hi,

I see some documentation coming!!
Where can I download/build the reporting server?

Hello.

It's unfinished yet, I'll try to push complete version today.

Reporting server can be downloaded here  or built from sources (http://git.netxms.org/public/netxms.git/tree/develop:/src/java/nxreporting). I also put sample configuration and report into archive.

I have compiled nxreporting from source (1.2.16), Configured the datasources to use mysql.
So far so good. nxreporting server is started (after creating the QUARTZ table in mysql)
from the client I can see the IP inventory report, but when I click it I get mysql connect errors in the reporting console log.

attached I have the log with debug switched on.

nxreporting.properties is:

# Workspace root. Contains deployed report definitions and output files
nxreporting.workspace=./workspace

# Datasource used by nxReporting itself to store job and schedule details
system.datasource.driverClassName=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
system.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/netxms
system.datasource.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
system.datasource.username=netxms
system.datasource.password=<password>

# Datasource passed to Jasper Reports
report.datasource.driverClassName=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
report.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/netxms
report.datasource.username=netxms
report.datasource.password=<password>

report.datasource2.driverClassName=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
report.datasource2.url=jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/netxms
report.datasource2.username=netxms
report.datasource2.password=<password>

org.quartz.dataSource.myDS.driver = com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
org.quartz.dataSource.myDS.URL = jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/netxms
org.quartz.dataSource.myDS.user = netxms
org.quartz.dataSource.myDS.password = <password>

From Mysql I can see that it is connection, so the URL is correct.
What could be the problem?

Hi!

I see lot of errors like "Access denied for user 'netxms'@'netxms01' (using password: YES)" in your log. Are you sure everything is correct with password and access control for this user?

Best regards,
Victor

username and password are 100% correct.
same username and password as netxmsd is using.
Also same host.
the most strange thing is that the quartz scheduler is accessing the database correct.
looks like the password is not parsed corectly.
is there a way to debug this?

Hello.

For historical reasons (however I'll change that in a future), all password except quartz's, should be encrypted by nxencpasswd:AirAlk:~() $ nxencpasswd netxms netxms1
H02kxYckADXCpgp+8SvHuMKmCn7xK8e4wqYKfvErx7g=

Sample config (login=netxms, password=netxms1):
system.datasource.username = netxms
system.datasource.password = H02kxYckADXCpgp+8SvHuMKmCn7xK8e4wqYKfvErx7g=
report.datasource.username = netxms
report.datasource.password = H02kxYckADXCpgp+8SvHuMKmCn7xK8e4wqYKfvErx7g=
org.quartz.dataSource.myDS.user = netxms
org.quartz.dataSource.myDS.password = netxms1


Much better!!

the only thing is that I'm missing some tables.(reporting_results and report_notification)
In the source I see the scripts for Oracle, but not for mysql.
Could you please add them?
maybe also include the QUARTZ scripts


Regards,
Edward

Any update on the missing tables?

Thanks,
Edward

Hello.

I just pushed schema file into git: http://git.netxms.org/public/netxms.git/blob/develop:/src/java/nxreporting/sql/mysql/nxreporting.sql

Thanks!

I have created these tables and now I can execute a report.
I see results in the tables, but I do not see anything in the console.
I can add a schedule, this is shown in the console correctly.
Even when using the schedule I do not see any results.
Also when adding a notification to my email address I do not receive an email.
I see the actions in the reporting server log as:
Hibernate: insert into reporting_results (executionTime, jobId, reportId, userId) values (?, ?, ?, ?)
Hibernate: select notificati0_.id as id1_0_, notificati0_.attach_format_code as attach_f2_0_, notificati0_.jobid as jobid3_0_, notificati0_.mail as mail4_0_, notificati0_.report_name as report_n5_0_ from report_notification notificati0_ where jobid=?
Hibernate: select notificati0_.id as id1_0_, notificati0_.attach_format_code as attach_f2_0_, notificati0_.jobid as jobid3_0_, notificati0_.mail as mail4_0_, notificati0_.report_name as report_n5_0_ from report_notification notificati0_ where jobid=?
Hibernate: select reportresu0_.id as id1_1_, reportresu0_.executionTime as executio2_1_, reportresu0_.jobId as jobId3_1_, reportresu0_.reportId as reportId4_1_, reportresu0_.userId as userId5_1_ from reporting_results reportresu0_ where reportresu0_.reportId=? order by reportresu0_.executionTime desc

so it is doing something!

Hi Alex,

There seems a problem in the table script with the column reportId.
As I can see from the source that is is an hybernate uuid binary column I think it should be binary(16) instead of binary(255).
I have tried it (recreated the table) and now it is showing up in the console.

Only thing is that I can't render the results. I'm getting the following error in the nxreporting log:
Exception in thread "Thread-9" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: 32768 > 16384
        at java.util.Arrays.copyOfRange(Arrays.java:2549)
        at com.radensolutions.reporting.infrastructure.impl.TcpConnector$SessionWorker.sendFileData(TcpConnector.java:232)
        at com.radensolutions.reporting.infrastructure.impl.TcpConnector$SessionWorker.run(TcpConnector.java:174)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:722)

the iligalArgumentExeption is coming from the Arrays.copyOfRange
Arrays.copyOfRange should have start and end instead of position and length.
After changing this to the following code this works.


private void sendFileData(final long requestId, final byte[] data) throws IOException
{
NXCPMessage msg = new NXCPMessage(NXCPCodes.CMD_FILE_DATA, requestId);
msg.setBinaryMessage(true);

for(int start = 0; start < data.length; start += 16384)
{
int end = start+16384;
if(end>data.length) end=data.length;
msg.setBinaryData(Arrays.copyOfRange(data, start, end));
sendMessage(msg);
}
}




After deploying it I can execute a report and the results are shown in the console.
Now when rendering I do not get any error, but the console is executing the job for a very long time.
After that I get the following error in the console:
Cannot render report IP Inventory (job ID 5277760b-41b4-4520-ac0a-95144c78367b): Input/Output error

Some additional info:
in the nxmc log I have this info:

!ENTRY org.netxms.ui.eclipse.console 4 0 2014-08-27 10:57:26.046
!MESSAGE Exception in ConsoleJob

in my temp folder there is a file created: nxc323266819402099091data
If I rename this file to .pdf I can open the report

Hope this will help finding the issue.

Edward
