But following are the contents of my ibiweb.cfg
DEVELOPERS=*
ADMINISTRATORS=admin
IBIWFC_AUTHENTICATION=NONE
TRACE_LOCATION=/export/home/a417753/wf764/ibi/WebFOCUS76/logs

Any idea in which scenario this exception is sent by the Reporting server?

This is not a reporting server error; this is a client error. Have you tried turning on a client trace? Have you run the diagnostics available on the client admin console?

I didn't see edaconf on your ibiweb.cfg file.

edaconf = C:\WEBFOC~1\ibi\WEBFOC~1\client71\wfc

You have to specify where your client configuration stored. In my machine it is under C:\Webfocus71\..

Hope this helps,

Sorry for the confusion.

This issue is fixed now.The problem was with the creation of a soft link.The softlink was pointing to a wrong directory and so the file ibiweb.cfg couldnt be located by the class.

Thanks for your replies.
