View Full Version : Report is submitted automatically even though autoSubmit is disabled on biserver 3.6

The Report is being automatically submitted on the publisher console while changing the report parameters even though the autoSubmit check box is unchecked (disabled) on bi-server 3.6.0

I have even tried both
1) Disabling the Master Report autoSubmit attribute on the report using ReportDesigner 3.6
2)Adding the autoSubmit parameter in the plugin.xml for RUN id tag.
With both these the autoSubmit option is not there on the publisher console of the report but the report is being submitted automatically every time when a report parameter is changed and the result preview will not be shown up unless ViewReport button is clicked which makes the report submitted again.

In Biserver 3.5 disabling AutoSubmit option prevents the form from being automatically submitted but there is no option to get rid of the AutoSubmit option completely from the console.

Is there any solution to prevent the report from being submitted automatically and get rid of AutoSubmit option from the publisher console of the report?

Hello swethd,

I have the same problem and I am also reasearching for the solution.
When I found it, I will tell you.

We also have this problem. Any suggestions? It does look to have changed (yet again) in 3.7 so maybe it's fixed there??

I had a bit of wrestle with the whole server side and GWT code and removed a lot of hacks that made the thing so unpredictable. The reporting parameter validation got a complete facelift, not only on the UI level (autosubmit etc) but also on how the parameter are validated.

Explaining and solving the auto-submit problem (http://www.sherito.org/2010/09/bi-server-parameter-input-authoritative.html)
Parameter validation rules (http://www.sherito.org/2010/09/fixed-rules-more-on-parameter.html)

If you are happen to come to Lisbon for the community meeting and feel strongly about parameters or other reporting issue then lets have a session there. I am always desperately seeking real-world feedback to keep me busy in my reporting world.

Thanks for the workaround there - having an unvalidateable parameter, great idea!
I am in Lisbon, i'm sure there's lots of real world feedback I can endeavour to provide :) Thats partly why i raise so many jira's too - you always do say that feedback is useful!

Thanks for this tip. Anybody know how to style the "This is a mandatory parameter" warning into something a little less ominous?
