[SOLVED] Agents crash when opening xls,xls-f,csv formats
I'm getting this error when I attempt to open a report in XLS, XLS-F, CSV. HTML runs as expected.

Unknown error occurred. Agent on reporting server EDASERVE may have crashed. Please investigate reporting server log.

I have a compund report with 2 fex's. Could the error be regarding this line. Although I use this in other reports.


-SET &REPORT_OUT = IF &IN_OUTFORMAT EQ 'HTML' THEN 'ON TABLE HOLD AS SECTION1 FORMAT HTMTABLE ' ELSE
-'ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT &IN_OUTFORMAT.EVAL';

What version are you on ?

The later version of WebFOCUS will crash more easily before returning an error.

There are a couple of things that you could to to determine the issue.

1. Check the server log, as specified in the error. This may also require turning on tracing on the server.

2. Try commenting ouy bits of the report until it works. This will eventually lead you tio the offending code.

3. Post your code. Someone on the forum may spot something.
