Webi 4.1: Hyperlink from Excel back to a Webi report produces JRE error

Hi,

Hope someone can shed some light on this issue.

I have implementation of BO Platform 4.1 (no service packs). Installed IE 8. Installed MS Office 2013.

I have installed Oracle JRE 6 Update 43 installed and my BO platform works normally.

What I'm trying to test is opening of a Webi report via hyperlink within another Excel exported report.

I've done following:

1. Created Webi "Report 1" with a hypelink to Webi "Report 2"

2. Tested hyperlink to Report 2 from within the Launchpad - works, opens the Report 2, no probs.

Here's my hyperlink URL:

http://localhost:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=AfywhdAPWxRAmE9jORP5TrE&sIDType=CUID

3. Exported Report 1 to Excel via "Save As"

4. Log off BO platform

5. Open exported Report 1 in Excel and click on hyperlink to Report 2

6. I get prompted for BO credentials, after my entering them, it opens Launchpad and then when target Webi is supposed to be displayed I get below error:

"Cannot launch Java Report Panel, please make sure you have installed a Java virtual machine"

Any idea as to the cause of this problem?

Many thanks for your input.

Kind Regards,
