Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
SYMPTOM(s):
Report Builder installed with NETSETUP from a Shared Network Installation
Reports are executed with the Report Engine Interface PRINTRB (aderb/_printrb)
Only one Report Status File is ever created, RBRUN.OUT, regardless of how many different clients execute a report
Each client shortcut used to launch the Report Engine Application points to the same server "Start in:" directory.
CAUSE:
The PRINTRB Interface writes the Report Status File, RBRUN.OUT, to the current directory. The file is overwritten because all the clients are configured with the same current directory ("Start in:") on the network
FIX:
It is not possible to configure a unique name or location for the Report Status File from the Report Engine Interface PRINTRB.
To workaround this limitation, use the PRNTRB2 (aderb/_prntrb2) interface and its RB-STATUS-FILE parameter.
For detailed information on how to configure unique name and locations for the Report Status File, see solution P119916.
