I am currently trying to set up a BROS server, and without detailed instructions anywhere, am pretty much guessing what I need to do.
I have two applications in the same server... one for Maximo UI, and the second application using the same database is intended to run only reports.
I tried setting up the URL for the BROS in Maximo, but when I try to run any report, I just get the login screen for my BROS application server, and the report does not actually run.
If you have instructions of how to set up the BROS server that would be very helpful.
best regards,
Stephen Hume
