Created attachment 198560 [details] shows error with parameter changed but not updated If report is sent to viewer with __format=HTML on the end, the report will run with the correct parameters once, but if the parameters are changed inside the Viewer by selecting the run report button a second time the newly entered parameters will not be used in running the report. I also discovered that if the parameter is lower case, __format=html rather than __format=HTML it appears to work at least some times. The URL includes a '&' at the end. If the extra '&' is removed from the end of the URL the newly entered parameters will be used. I tried this in 2.6.0 and 2.6.2 with the same problem.
Hi james, Did you use the birt designer to launch the viewer and preview the report file, or did you use the birt runtime? I have tested on birt 2.6.3 and 3.7.0, and these builds are working fine. BTW, what did you mean by "__format=HTML"? During my test the url never comes in with uppercase "HTML", but always with lowercase, and there is no "__format" parameter when previewing in the birt-runtime.
This can be reproduced by deploying the birt runtime and manually adding the "__format=HTML" parameter, which are upper case letters, to the url.
