Oracle R12 Reports are failing with Rep 3000 error on IBM AIX
Issue :
In R12 on IBM AIX Reports are failing with Rep 3000 error
Description:
We all know that there is no concept of Display for generating reports in R12, there is…..:) but only on IBM AIX.
We need to set the display in IBM AIX for R12 to generate the reports output without error.
Solution ;
a) Go to CM(Admin) Node
b) Login in as Application User
c) Find the display from CONTEXT_FILE
Ex :
-bash-3.2$ grep -i display $CONTEXT_FILE
oratestdev:0.0
Here the display is 0.0
d) export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
e) /usr/lpp/X11/bin/xinit /usr/lpp/X11/bin/mwm — :0 -vfb -force -x abx -x dbe -x GLX &
f) xhost +
g) Login as root
h) export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
i) xhost +
Thanks,
Sam.



Thanks Sam
You did a terrific job putting this in blog. It did help and solved the AIX report display error REP- 3000. Earlier I had display setting but not configured properly.
Thanks again
