Reporting Service

1.5.2.1 Populate the Reports

Inside Etere, Reports are populated through the software EtereUpdate, just:

- check "Reports Birt" options
- set the repository path


The important prerequisite is the accessibility of that path from Etere Update. If birt reports is on linux side, a possible configuration could be:


sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf

_________________ place this configuration on botton of the smb.conf file

[BirtReports]
    comment = Birt folder
    path = /var/lib/tomcat10/webapps/birt/
    read only = no
    browsable = yes
    guest ok = yes
    force guest = yes
    create mask = 0777
    directory mask = 0777

__________________

sudo chown -R nobody:nogroup /var/lib/tomcat10/webapps/birt/
sudo chmod -R 777 /var/lib/tomcat10/webapps/birt/

note: this configuration would allow public access (guest user = ok and permissions 777 so read , write and execute for all). If you need to manage accesses you can act towards samba permissions (guest ok = no and valid users = user1, user2 for example) and/or system side by changing owner and permissions of the folder, but the requisite to be accessible from EtereUpdate remains.
