WebFocus server might be invalid or expired
Hi All,

Thanks for giving best support to my previous posts.

Here, I have come up with another issue which am facing.

Am getting below error message when i run webfocus report from J2EE home page.

"The WebFocus server might be down or the Persistent Cookie associated with request to communicate with WebFocus server might be invalid or expired: null".

and issue is exists only in QA environment not in DEV. Any needful advice for the issue?

Thanks,
Mathan.S

Got it from techsupport...

Go to IE Tools-> Intenet Options,then go to Privacy Tab. Click on Advanced tab.
Then click on "Overide automatic cookie handling". Then you can specify
prompting for cookies. You should see the cookies displayed and in some
cases the values of the cookies are encrypted and in other cases they are
not.

Basic troubleshooting is to restart all the services and clear the caches etc..

No idea what you mean there; what do you call the J2EE home page?

My guess is that your report runs with ERROROUT = ON and that you're tripping an error that isn't handled well by the WF server. Try SET ERROROUT = OFF and inserting some -EXIT statements into your code until you don't get that error any more.

Hi Virtuoso,
J2EE home page means, report (launch or parameter or dashboard) page was not developed in WebFocus, it was developed in Java. Just we are linking the WebFocus reports into that.
My WebFocus report doen't has ERROROUT=ON command.
