check, whether the Use SSL option is selected or not.
Known issues
DescriptionItem
Internet Explorer has a limit of 2048 characters. Firefox (browser) has 65,536
character limit. Apache produces a "413 Entity Too Large" error after 4000 characters.
The message "Unrecognized data
report" can be generated by Internet
Explorer when a URL is very long.
Workaround:
Break the query into a smaller size (especially for PD/LD reports).
Excel 2003 has the row limit set at 65,536. Excel 2007 has a maximum limit of
1,048,576 rows. If the data being retrieved from the database exceeds these limits,
an overflow error occurs.
An overflow message can be
generated by the Build Report Menu

number of objects (such as LD

System Reporter requires that the database user in Oracle and MySQL have a
password.
System Reporter does not work
correctly if a database user account
is created without a password.
Workaround:
Ensure that the database user has a password.
The speed of extraction depends on the speed of the database. Also, the current
version of the extraction utility is a single threaded application where the IO speed
depends on the speed of the destination disks.
The extraction utility can take a long
time to perform the extraction
process when working with large
databases.
Workaround:
Extract smaller chunks of data at a time.
