JOBTYPE command line keyword

JOBTYPE specifies the type of job to be processed by the server. You can enter any type of job, as long as Reports Server has an engine to process it.

The executables that can use this keyword are:

rwbuilder no
rwrun no
rwclient yes
rwcgi yes
rwserver no
rwservlet yes
rwconverter no

Syntax

JOBTYPE=jobtype

Values

Description

jobtype

A job for which the Reports Server has an engine. For example: report (for rwEng engine) or rwurl (for rwURLEng engine).

Default = report

Usage notes

The database authentication functionality provided in Oracle Reports is available only when JOBTYPE=report. This is the job type of the default engine (rwEng) provided with OracleAS Reports Services. The database authentication functionality is not available when JOBTYPE specifies a different value (for example, for a custom engine that you develop yourself). This is because a custom engine may require a different format for the connect string, while the Oracle Reports database authentication functionality limits the connect string to the Oracle Reports format user/password@dbname used for the default engine.

Examples

Running a report that specifies a URL to be fetched with the URL engine
