Enabling the Siebel Reports Server with the Siebel Dedicated Web Client

This section describes how to modify configuration files, such as siebel.cfg, on the Dedicated Web Client to enable the Siebel Reports Server.

To configure the Siebel Application Object Manager files

1. Navigate to the BIN\language subdirectory of your Siebel eBusiness Applications installation directory.

   where:

   language = The Siebel code for the Language Pack you installed; for example, ENU for U.S. English.

2. Locate and open the appropriate configuration (CFG) file.
3. Using your default text editor, edit the following parameters in the [ActuateReports] sections.

   [ActuateReports]

   EnableReportServer = TRUE

   ReportServerHost = Valid formats for this parameter are:

   • If using an IP Address to refer to the Reports Server Host, then you need to include the Encyclopedia volume name for this parameter.

   IP Address:Port Number/Encyclopedia volume name (example: 1.160.10.240:8000/volume1)

   • If the Reports Server Host name is different from the Encyclopedia volume name, then the Encyclopedia volume name must be included for this parameter.

   ReportsServerHost:Port Number/Encyclopedia volume name (example: server1:8000/volume1)

   • If the Reports Server Host name and the Encyclopedia volume name are the same, then the Encyclopedia volume name does not need to be included for this parameter.

   ReportsServerHost:Port Number (example: server1:8000)

   NOTE:  By default, if the Encyclopedia volume name is not specified, it is assumed to be the same as the ReportServerHost.

   ProtocolName = Name of protocol to use for viewing reports (example: HTTP)

   RoxDir = /Siebel Reports/

   ConnectString = Connect string for an Application Object Manager (where load balancing is not deployed) is:

   siebel.TCPIP.none.none://SiebelServerHost:SCBPort/EnterpriseServerName/XXXObjMgr_language

   where:

   • siebel.TCPIP = Networking protocol
   • none.none = The encryption type and compression type
   • SiebelServerHost = Name of the machine on which the Siebel Server is installed
   • SCBPort = Listening port number for the SCBroker component (default is 2321)
   • EnterpriseServerName = Name of your Siebel Enterprise Server
   • XXXObjMgr_language = Type of Object Manager and Language Pack for the Siebel eBusiness application you are installing, for example:
     • SCCObjMgr_enu for U.S. English Siebel Call Center Object Manager
     • SSEObjMgr_enu for U.S. English Siebel Sales Object Manager

       NOTE:  Setting the Actuate Report Cast Domain and Actuate Server Report Cast Host parameters is no longer required.
