I have created a .fex procedure that was started in designer...

[Carter Henderson]

I have created a .fex procedure that was started in designer but then was modified a lot outside of designer. It runs great when I test it from within the text editor. It also works while Im creating/editing the page. However when I run the webpage, my filters spin and never populate. see the attached pics.

I have many hold files within the procedure so I imagine there is something screwy in there that is causing the problem. Has anyone experienced this and what are some typical causes of something like this

This is in the editing

This is when the page is run

 

Thanks

That may not resolve the problem, but sharing your code may help us giving you a solution or something to look at.

When you run the webpage, have you tried using F12 (Debugger tool) to see if you have any errors displayed

Thanks for your response @MartinY. I have not used F12 and wouldnt know what to do if I found an issue.

I also use designer for building my webpage so I really cant edit the code on the back end for the webpage.

[Martin Yergeau]

Using the F12 may help you figure where is the issue.

Running from the webpage (client) may react differently since the Reporting Server and Client may be invoked/react differently for the same code for severals reasons that I wouldnt be able to explain.

Sometime more validation (code tightening) are performed when running from client.

But what I saw is that you have several places where, from what I see, It should have a -* and its only a - (dash) and where it should not have any dash and have one or two (lines 61, 62, 78, 79, 95, 96, 141, 153, 212).

Also, you have several WHERE clause that are defined as auto-prompting. This may slow down a lot the client (filter spinning) since it has to retreive any possible value for all auto-prompt WHERE clause. And if you have large table, it may be very long to perform.

Finally, you you post sample or code, please use the code tag from the ribbon that looks like </> or type as below (without spaces after & before brackets)

[ code ]

paste your code here

[ /code ]

Try running one part at the time from the client and see where it hang

[SATHEESH B]

In HTML Filter we can use custom fex to load the dropdown. But the page designer always depends on the Reports where condition. I had similar issues when I use dynamic parameter and load the values from the same table. Example Product ID from the details table. instead of using the same details table i always use the master table. it will always have less records and it will load fast. Can you try to change the where condition parameter as Dynamic and edit the parameter and choose the VALUE and DISPLAY value from master table

Also Make sure there is no error in the browser console. run the page and press F12 and check for errors in the console and network for any script error or 404 errors. and turn off the usage analytics in the admin console . it will be enabled by default and send data to ibi server if that server down there will be performance issue
