PRD : number formatting not applied when report is generated via PDI

May 30, 2013, 1:30 pm
$

0
Hello,
I have a PRD report (.prpt), where i have applied a format like #,##0 for number fields, so that i have the thousand separator ','.
When this report is published to console, i see that comma for large values.
But when the same report is generated via PDI (using the pentaho reporting output) - accessing the prpt from the published location, there is no comma !
Why is that ?


Here are the details of the problem :


  • Number field in prpt file, with formatting applied like $#,#0.00
  • Preview this report in xls, or export to xls from PRD - desired formatting is visible.
  • Publish this same prpt to the Pentaho console and view it there - desired formatting is visible.
  • Use PDI to generate report (pentaho reporting output step) and save it on a local location - desired formatting is NOT visible.
  • Use PDI to generate report and then use Mail step to email the same report as attachment - desired formatting is NOT visible.


PDI version 4.4.1
PRD version 3.9.1-GA.16112

I'm really hoping the solution is as simple as a setting some attribute !


Thanks a lot !

Hi,
In my diagram at a certain point, I have a filter rows. If the result is TRUE I would like to do a SELECT otherwise (FALSE) another kind of select. I did it with two table input objects.
Actually, after the filter rows, both the two tableinput are executed may be because are initialized at the start. I've also tried with the SQL script but it seems to has the same behavior.

How Can I do that?
Thanks

Hi,

I have customers that receive a given service for a current time. An exceprt of the fact table would be

Code:
customer_id INT,
service_id INT,
start_date INT,
end_date INT,
I have a Time dimension. I'd like to know how should I design my cube, so for a given date I could know whcih service and which customers are concerned.

If I tight it to either start_date, or end_date it would give me the customer that have a start date being in the current selection, but not during.

Thank you,

Bullet Chart - setting x-axis start value.

Hello

Im making a CCC Bullet Chart, and i have mainly values between 99 and 100, becouse they are measurements in percentage. In this case, indicator bars are nearly "full", and my chart is not good as it could be, if x-axis first value would be 80 instead of 0 (zero).

So, now x-axis ticks are between 0 and 100, but my values are mainly 99.x . I want my chart to indicate values only between 80 and 100, so 99.x values would be shown better. -> differencies between bar values would be better shown.

Cheers

Unable to create reusable Job similar to reusable transformation ...End less loop err

May 31, 2013, 5:15 am

Hi,
We are implementing restartability from point of failure by creating touch files.
But as these steps are repeating I thought of creating a common wrapper job which accepts
job/transorfmation path name,job/transformation name as paramters and carrying out the
if then else with the files.
Assume that I have a master job J1 and it calls a child job J2 which has two child jobs J3 and J4
and I am calling J2,J3 and J4 using this wrapper job. But the problem is
I am getting endless loop error when I run master job as it says the say wrapper job is calling
itself.
Is it possible to use a reusable job just as we use transformation.
Please let me know it...
Creating if then else file exist condition for each of the job is tedious so I thought to create a single
job and call it.
The reason to create a single wrapper job was that it could check the file existance and also it call the transformations
or job from it
Please help...

Regards,
Pramod.

I would like to display the difference between two date columns belonging to the database table contained in a data source, which I have created with the Pentaho User Console. Unfortunately, the Console does not seem to let you create Measure Expressions or Calculated Members.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

I have 21K odd records in DB. My report has 30 fields and header to display. It takes almost 8 to 10 mins to display report in excel.

I am using SQL server as DB. Data is getting retrieved from a stored proc. DB returns same data in around 26-30 secs. I am using JNDI connection at pentaho side.

Why is it taking so long? Is there any way to make it faster?

xAxisLabel_text

Hi,
I have set xAxisLabel_text = function(d){return'$ '+ sprintf('%d',d/1000)+'k'} but not seem to work.
The same code works with yAxisLabel_text :confused: ($NaNk it's ok). Exists some parameters than can influence this extension point?
My graph is a bar graph with only default parameters. The x axys contain integer values, y axys contain text values.

My first objective is to resize the text at the y-axys, i need to see only the first 10 characters of the value.
This code don't work function(d){return d.substr(0,9)} and if i try function(d){return d} into the graph appear the text "Visual.cartesianAxysTickScene" :confused:
Is it normal?

Thanks

Execution order of Scheduled reports

Hi

I was searching for this in the forum, but I didn't find any post related, sorry if it's already answered.

Question is the following:

We are preparing to enabling report distribution by email in PUC, linked to a Public Schedule. We'd like to check if there's any limitation in the number of reports that can be added to a given schedule.
Is there a risk to the server stability in case that let's say there are 100 reports added to the same schedule?
Will Pentaho try to execute all of them simulatenously, or one by one, or they will be executed in batches of 5, 10 or other predefined parameter?
Can that execution behaviour be controlled via parameters?

Thanks in advance

I'm guessing Slawo will be the best to solve this one =p

Whole transformation runs normal, without any problems at all... it ends on a sort rows, followed by Excel Writer. If I disable this final hop and try to preview on Sort Rows, I get an error without any messages. If I just run, final hop still disabled, no errors. If I enable the final hop and try to run, Excel Writer gives me this error:

Mysql JDBC/ODBC connection error(s)

Hi i know this is a common issue that it saves putting the 'mysql-connector-java-5.1.25-bin.jar' driver into 'C:\Archivos de programa\pentaho\design-tools\data-integration\libext\JDBC'.
But in my case this doesn't solves it. I tried so many variants, put it on 'libext', 'lib'... always the error message was:

Exception while loading class
org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver

I think this error became of missing path or something...

I tried too to make a new database connection vía ODBC, and this way was succesfull. And then I tried to make a Catalog connection via ODBC, but new error message appears:
Error connecting to database: (using class sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver)
[Microsoft][Administrador de controladores ODBC] The name of the data source is too long

I'm using Kettle SpoonStable release 4.4.0 on windows XP, my dsn odbc name is 'pordsn'. Mysql version is 5.1.41.
Environment: CLASSPATH=.;C:\Archivos de programa\Java\jdk1.7.0_05;C:\Archivos de programa\pentaho\design-tools\data-integration\libext\JDBC
