By default, the ClearQuest® Client
attempts to run reports created with Crystal Reports locally by using
an embedded API.
Before you begin
Running data-pull reports remotely from the ClearQuest Client, requires that these
reporting components have been installed and configured in your ClearQuest environment:
- ClearQuest Report
Server for Crystal Reports
- Report Launcher for ClearQuest
- Crystal Reports Java™ Runtime
Component (JRC)
For more information, see
Configuring the Crystal Reports Designer for ClearQuest reporting.
Procedure
To run Crystal Reports from the ClearQuest Report Server for Crystal Reports
with the Report Launcher for ClearQuest,
perform the following steps:
- Open the ClearQuest Reporting
preferences page by clicking .
- Select the Enable remote reporting check
box.
- In the ClearQuest Report Server
for Crystal Report field, specify the remote reporting
host for the Report Launcher for ClearQuest based
on the following URL template:
http://server-name:<port>/cqwebreport/CRInvoker
Where <port> is
the port defined in the profile used to deploy the application. The
default ClearQuest profile
uses port 12080. The default Websphere Application Server profile
uses port 9080.
What to do next
After making these changes, the ClearQuest Client runs reports from the ClearQuest Report Launcher
using the ClearQuest Report
Server for Crystal Reports.
