Web Report Server

Generate Adobe PDF reports on the fly over the web.

The Report Manager web server generates PDF files on the fly: it prompts the user for the report name and parameters, runs the report and returns an Adobe PDF file, which can be displayed directly in the browser.

It is a true network and web report server with no license fees and multiprocessor support, available for Windows and Linux (Apache), and ready to run self-hosted in Docker.

Run it self-hosted with Docker

The published image runs repwebexe -selfhosted and serves the web report server on port 8080. Start the service directly with:

docker run -d \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -e REPORTMAN_HTTP_PORT=8080 \
  -v repweb_etc:/usr/local/etc \
  -v repweb_home:/var/lib/reportman \
  -v repweb_logs:/var/log/reportman \
  --name reportman-web \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  tonimartir/reportman-web:latest

Docker pulls the image on the first run. The admin panel is then available at http://localhost:8080/admin/login.

Good to know

Port: set with REPORTMAN_HTTP_PORT (default 8080); publish the same port with -p.
Persistent data (named volumes): repweb_etc → /usr/local/etc (dbxdrivers.conf, dbxconnections.conf), repweb_home → /var/lib/reportman (server configuration), repweb_logs → /var/log/reportman.
Database clients included: PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, Firebird/Interbase, SQLite, MS SQL Server/Sybase (FreeTDS) and ODBC. Proprietary clients (Oracle, Db2) are added in a derived image.
TLS / authentication: place a reverse proxy in front of the container.

Image on Docker Hub: tonimartir/reportman-web.
