[CASE-OPENED] How to do I use the same HTML Report in different servers?
I wanted to know if there is any way of using the same HTML Report created using
HTML Composer in different servers.

I have a HTML which has 4 graphs which are referencing to the existing
procedures.

When I try to copy the HTML from one server to the other ,it gives me an error
like "Host not found in wfscom.xml".How to create an HTML which is portable
accross servers without making any changes to the report which has the same directory structure.

Appreciate all your help.

Appreciate all your time and help with this

Regards,
Puja

I don't know if you're talking about an HTML launch page or a procedure that produces a report in HTML format. In either case, they are made to run from the server where the WF Client resides (same as yoour application server. They are NOT portable across different server. The components that are used to produce WF reports cannot be run on just any server. If you have licenses for multiple clients then you might be able to run them from a different licensed server.

You CAN take the actual HTML report (after it is displayed in the browser) and save it an move it somewhere else, but functionality such as drill downs, links, images, and such would not be available.
