Hi,

We have a problem when we run a report by using a schedule in ReportCaster. We got the message (FOC295) A VALUE IS MISSING FOR: &IBIWF_language
But if we run the same report from WebFOCUS console, it run normally.

And what we do not understand, we have this problem only in our QA environement.
In Dev we don't have this problem.

We compared all the settings DEV vs QA and we don't see any difference.

If somebody can help us on this ?

Thanks

René Bisson

Do you have an entry in your site.wfs that looks like this?

language = &IBIWF_language
  <set> language (pass)


Also check to see if you add:

-SET &IBIWF_language = fr;


To the beginning of the report, will Rep Caster still give you an error.

Also, take a look at Tools/Report Caster Console/Configuration and click Code Page and see if there are any values set to them. I think Caster needs it's own language settings.

We compare Code Page of DEV and QA and it the same.

I put a SET &IBIWF_language=en; into the main fex and the result have not the error message but a message no report to distribute.

It should be -SET not SET.

You should also -SET &ECHO=ALL; and look at the code in the Rep Caster Log to see what it's doing that causes there to be nothing to distribute.

Site.wfs is not executed by ReportCaster. There is second option "Universal profile" or something like that where WebFOCUS configuration goes.

WebFOCUS Administration Console/Report Caster/Configuration --Dserver Codepage and Webserver Codepage. See if those two settings are the same in both environments.

Universal Profile is in:
WebFOCUS Admin Console/Client Setting - General. Click the ? next to it for the description of how it's used.

The other question is, does RC or the report need &IBIWF_language ?

Hi,

I work with René,
we used the &IBIWF_language variable to determine some label for Report Titles,Header,Footer and Messages
EX:

-SET &nodata_selection=IF &IBIWF_language EQ 'en' THEN 'There are no results matching your criteria.' ELSE 'Aucun résultat ne correspond à vos critères.';
