Hello,
i'm evaluating Pentaho BI Server to consider it for a client we have to address in our near future;
I have installed both the Pentaho bi-server 2.0 and the BI-Platform 1.7.0.1062 in my Linux machine, to evaluate stability, performance, and functionality of them both.
I am experimenting some problem while trying to schedule a Report with some customizable parameters(Daily, Monthly, date, et all...)
With bi-server 2.0, after having published my metadata models and views with success, i have also created via web-frontend, some effective reports, with measures and aggregation field; BUT anytime i try to schedule one of them, i am experimenting some error message, most of the time they don't show any message, to undarstand any cause of the problem...the result is that i cannot see any of my report scheduled in the workspace, and that's not good :-(

With bi-platform 1.7.0.1062, when i try to open the Subscription administration page, it doesn't show the command button i expected, as documented in the wiki, but it simply show a message error like this:
"Use this page to create and manage subscriptions, subscription schedules and scheduled jobs
Required parameters were not provided, missing -
Building the admin page -
could not execute query
"
That doesn't let me try any other test, with the scheduling a report feature for both the versions. I feel like it is a resolveble problem, but haven't understood how to procede.
Could you please give me some precious suggestion to continue my evaluation of the Pentaho potential?
Thank you very much for your help,
i'll wait for some answers,
best regards,
Marco L.
