can't create xml data template for openerp 7

[rjay lopez]

When I go to jasper report > create data template > select model, gave a depth and click save as to download a xml date template.
It doesn't work for me, In other words its not downloading anything.

Hi Dear rjay,

Actually im facing the same issue here, and i cannot find how to resolve this, in the OpenERP logs there is nothing, i think i should debug the java part. i don't really know how i can debug this.

Do you have more details about this bug ??

Hi Dear rjay,

Actually, i was looking to the wizard that create the file, and i have seen why the file is not poping up.

But im so pressed for now, so i will not fix the download of the file right now.

But we have some alternatives, right now i came to Raise the content of the file directly in a box, from the wizard, you can change the 'action_create_xml' function in "/jasper_reports/wizard/jasper_create_data_template.py" like this to raise the content:

""""
    def action_create_xml(self, cr, uid, ids, context=None):
        for data in self.read(cr, uid, ids, context=context):
            model = self.pool.get('ir.model').browse(cr, uid, data['model'][0], context=context)
            xml = self.pool.get('ir.actions.report.xml').create_xml(cr, uid, model.model, data['depth'], context)
            self.write(cr,uid,ids,{
                'data' : base64.encodestring( xml ),
                'filename': 'template.xml'
            })
            raise osv.except_osv((''),("%s") % (base64.encodestring( xml )))

        return True
""""

Or maybe you can open a file inside the server, and save the content of the XML file.

i hope this may help, i will come back when have time to fix this, i think i can do that.

Regards dear,

Hello Scribder,

Thank you for your response. I try the first option about changing the 'action_create_xml' function in "/jasper_reports/wizard/jasper_create_data_template.py". But I get this error from my logs

actually the scrambled letters and number is too long so I just represent it with several dot :)

I'm looking forward to try your second option. I might just need your help for more specific steps or details how to get in to the server, and save the content of the xml file.

Thank you and more power,

Hi Dear rjay,

Yes exact, actually sorry i didn't tell you that you are not forced to encode the file, just popup the "XML" var instead of poping up the encoded one...and do the same by saving the xml content in a file somewhere.

And i will return after this weekend and see how to fix that properly.

i hope you are not blocked for now,

Good luck dear,
