Actuate 7 Error exporting as an excel spreadsheet

From: bob_blakely (2011-08-30 20:23)

We are running Maximo 5.2/Weblogic/Actuate7. We moved to a different server and now get an error when exporting an excel spreadsheet.
The error is:

NAME: viewpage.xls
Type: Microsoft office excelj97-2003 Worksheet
THE FILE YOU ARE DOWNLOADING CANNOT BE OPENED BY THE DEFAULT PROGRAM. IT IS EITHER CORRUPTED OR IT HAS AN INCORRECT FILE TYPE. AS A SECURITY PRECAUTION, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CANCEL THE DOWNLOAD.
When I try to open the viewpage.xls I get this message.
"Office File Validation detected a problem while trying to open this file. Opening it may be dangerous."
So is there some patch I am missing? Is it because Microsoft keeps updating our servers with various patches. Very strange.
Any help or direction you can give me would be appreciated!
