Error viewing html report
« on: October 28, 2020, 02:07:12 am »
I just get a page with the text "loading" when I go to the html report URL.
I tried in Firefox, Chrome and Edge. Anyone know what the problem is?

Your browser refuses to load scripts from local files.

You can either publish it via a webserver, or startup chrome with the "allow local file access" flag.

Is there a solution for Firefox and Safari users?

The only "real" solution is to publish it on a webserver.
The others are merely workarounds that disable a valid security feature in browsers, exposing you to the risk this feature is trying to protect you from.

Yes and no. The behavior is because a script could potentially guess names in the downloaded files for an email application. Opening an Enterprise Architect report doesn't expose you to that risk unless you disable the function permanently.

The best solution is to use WebEA or Prolaborate to display your model in a browser. Both are direct views into the model instead of a point of time export and allow functions like searches that aren't otherwise available in the straight html report.
