Integrating Remote Logi Report Server With WebLogic 12c (12.2.1.3.0) by a WAR File

Here is an example illustrating the case of using JSPs based on Remote Server APIs to integrate with WebLogic 12c (12.2.1.3.0).

It is assumed that:

• WebLogic is installed in C:\bea in computer A.
• Logi Report Server is installed in C:\LogiReport\Server in computer B. The computer IP is 127.0.0.1.

The procedure for integrating remote Logi Report Server with WebLogic contains the following major steps:

1. Generate the WAR file
2. Configure Logi Report Server
3. Deploy the WAR file

Step 1: Generating the WAR file

1. In computer B, use the tool makewar.bat to build the Logi Report Server WAR file as defined by makewar.xml for remote integration. Both makewar.bat and makewar.xml are located in C:\LogiReport\Server\bin. Run the following commands in DOS window and the generated WAR file remote.war will be saved to the directory C:\LogiReport\Server\bin\distribute.

   makewar.bat buildRemoteWar -Djrs.remote.host=127.0.0.1 -Djrs.remote.rmiport=1129 -Djrs.rmi.auth_file=C:\LogiReport\Server\bin\rmi.auth

2. Copy the rmi.auth file from C:\LogiReport\Server\bin in computer B to C:\LogiReport\Server\bin in computer A.

Step 2: Configuring Logi Report Server

1. Make sure Logi Report Server has been started once so that the server.properties file is generated.
2. Change server.properties file in C:\LogiReport\Server\bin as follows:

   server.rmiserver.enable=true
server.rmiadminservice.enable=true

Step 3: Deploying the WAR file

1. If you have not already created a WebLogic Domain for Logi Report Server you must create one before starting the integration.
2. In computer A, start WebLogic by running startWeblogic.sh in C:\bea\user_projects\domains\domain_name\bin.
3. In computer B, access the WebLogic Administrative Console using the URL http://hostname:7001/console/, where the hostname is computer A's host name or IP address, and 7001 is the port number.
4. After your successful login, in the Domain Structure panel on the left, select Deployments node.
5. In the Summary of Deployments panel, select Install.
6. In the Install Application Assistant panel, select the upload your file(s) link.
7. In the Deployment Archive section, select Browse to select the remote.war file in C:\LogiReport\Server\bin\distribute, and then select Next.
8. Keep selecting Next until the Finish button is enabled, and then select Finish.
9. Start Logi Report Server in computer B. Then go to computer A and access Logi Report Server using the following URL:

   http://localhost:7001/remote/
