Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Error using more than one argument in report.

    I am making a report and I receive the following error when trying to run it in IE.

    XHTTPRequest Error:
    500 Internal Server Error
    Script ErrorError:Scipt:"/_a5runReport.a5w"
    line:186

    a5_xbasic_to_arguments(arguments,args,2pageVar"pageVar"session,__dtfmt)

    Property not found

    a[] not found.
    The report runs with no errors when I use only one argument but if I add another I receive the error. I have similar reports that run fine. I am really stumped as to why this is happening.

    I am running Alpha 5/11.0 Build/3044-4041

    Re: Error using more than one argument in report.

    I use multiple arguments in reports without any issues. Could you be forcing an argument to take an incorrect data type?
    When I get a weird error, I duplicate the component and start removing/simplifying it by deleting parts until it works again. Then I know where to look for the problem. And it could be either my bad or a bug....wouldn't know until you dig deeper.

      I am having the same problem with a different report and I have a similar report with 4 arguments that works fine. Each individual argument works by itself But two or more will cause the error. I have verified data types, removed all references to the arguments, renamed them several times, re-wrote the query. The report preview opens fine in working preview. Just in a browser, Just these two reports.

        Could it be a publishing problem where the AEX files weren't rebuilt?

            Re: Error using more than one argument in report.

            Looked at the code and the page that is called to create the report "__a5runReport.a5w" takes the "arguments" variable and uses stritran(arguments, "||" ,crlf())
            My problem is I have arguments with null values so...

            'sDate|Character|20130101||eDate|Character|20130102||suppId|Character|||status|Numeric|0'

            Becomes

            'sDate|Character|20130101
            eDate|Character|20130102
            suppId|Character
            |status|Numeric|0'

            This is obviously an invalid format for the "arguments" variable. How do I overcome this?

              Re: Error using more than one argument in report.

              I am having the same problem with reports with arguments. I'm in build 3044-4041. No matter how many arguments or whether the argument values are hard-coded or prompted for at run-time, I get the following error:



              I've tried it in two different databases with the same results. I've also tried creating a brand new report in the current build--same problem. Any ideas? Are others having this problem?

                Sam, you could workaround by defining a Before execute event (in javascript). You could check for '|||' in the arguments string and replace with '| ||' for example.
