IBM SPSS Web Report What server is it looking for?

[Art Kendall]

IBM SPSS Web Report

I tried using export to a web report.  Some features require connecting to a
server.
help says
"For information about adding the enhanced controls to your Internet Server,
go to https://developer.ibm.com/predictiveanalytics." but that led me
nowhere.

I am running version 24.0.0.2

I only loaded a 1-user copy of SPSS to my PC although I have a license for 8
seats.

Should I get v 27 as a server version?

I am in the midst of a very messy job on v24.  Can I download v27 as a
server version and leave v24 as is for now.  Disk space is not a problem.

The Server referred to here is not Statistics Server but a special server that, typically, a corporation would maintain for its internal use.  I don't know how that is sold, but it was intended to  handle features that would require code that might not be allowed to run in your browser.

Thank you.

Is this a correct interpretation?

Those features are not for something to hand off to rather naive recipients.
One would have to work on the appearance before sending off to others.

The idea behind the server was that it would give users more of the Viewer functionality, e.g., pivoting tables, however, the web report both local and server apparently were not very popular.  As of V27, this feature has been removed.  It would still work in 24-26 except that the server functionality is gone.

Too bad as it was a nice option.  If users stormed the barricades and demanded it back, I suppose it would be restored, but this seems unlikely.

You can, of course, still do a plain HTML export.

Thank you.

You do so much for the community.

Then I won't bother getting v27 yet.

It would be nice if the <help> were updated to say "no longer available"

A bug has been filed on the doc.  It affects both the OUTPUT EXPORT command and the OMS command, which supported that format.  (I can't file bugs directly, but I can "bug" other people to do that.)
