Scripts Directory and documentXML.aspx

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

I am using numerous hyperlinks to dynamically open up new documents. Our current system is XIr2 sp5 running .Net.

We have installed XIR3.1 on a new system and I am trying to test out the hyperlinks. It seems that the Scripts directory that held the documentXML.aspx was not installed on the new system.

My questions: Can I copy the Scripts folder from XIR2 to XIR3 and keep the documentXML functionality? Is documentXML.aspx even supported anymore.

Thanks -- the info is appreciated.

Hi Rich,

Calling documentXML.aspx directly was never supported in XI r2. In XI 3.x the Web Applications for both Java and dotNet were completely rewritten and the scripts folder as you knew it no longer exists. What you should do now is modify your links to use a URL report method as outlines in Viewing Reports and Documents using URLs: [http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-1_url_reporting_opendocument_en.pdf|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-1_url_reporting_opendocument_en.pdf]

Well.. That answers the question. Now the fun part of coverting the calls begins.

Thanks for your help...
