how could I store a .jpg @ this place: =SHOWPICT("/pr/images/bikersbest_logo_update.jpg")

Just one question: Theres a report in the bikersbest example (Profit & Loss (DynaRange)) which contains a logo file. But it is not directly embedded into the .wss, but referenced using formula =SHOWPICT("/pr/images/bikersbest_logo_update.jpg"). Where resides this /pr/images - path? Do I need to store imagefiles first outside from the Jedox Suite, e.g. via FTP? On the server somewhere? Or could I use the Filemanager or ETL to bring it into my system and reference on it?
I did not really find the file on the example folders, but also no post concerning it here...

Best regards,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

the directory is located here:
/opt/jedox/ps/htdocs/app/docroot (or equivalent depending on your OS)

the "/" at the begining of "/pr/images/bikersbest_logo_update.jpg" represent the root directory (in this case docroot). This docroot is set in the apache configuration : DocumentRoot "/htdocs/app/docroot"

so yes you can connect with an ftp client to the server and upload the files. The other solution if you do not have access to the server, is to ask an administrator to create a shared folder (under docroot), where you would have full access to upload your files

Hi laloune,

thanks for the very fast reply. So I don't need to search further for a on-board resource for that in the websuite.

Best regards,
Stefan
