you can search with "Preview a PDF Report In Word BI Publisher Add-in Results In Error: java.util.EmptyStackException" on oracle support.

Solution given in doc:

If the sub-templates are not available to BI Publisher in Word then you will get the error that you are seeing. As a basic check you can take out the sub-template calls and the template should run and preview without error.

If you need to modify the template and do not need the sub-templates for the editing, takeout the sub-template lines. Make the changes you need then restore the sub-template lines before uploading the changed template to the BIP server.

If the sub-templates are needed for the editing, the sub-templates must be downloaded to the local machine. After Editing is complete, the sub-template calls that worked on the server need to be restored back into the Template file.

Hi Shiva,

Sorry for disturbing you, as I am new to BIP I am finding it difficult to understand the solution presented by you.

Could you please elaborate this line.

"If you need to modify the template and do not need the sub-templates for the editing, take out the sub-template lines. Make the changes you need then restore the sub-template lines before uploading the changed template to the BIP server."

I have tried to remove the calling line from the template and then if I try to generate PDF I am able to do so. But still, I am not able to understand why the former approach is throwing EmptyStackException

<?import:file:D:///PMAR2/cover_rst.rtf?>

<?start:body?>

Page 1<?call@inlines:cover?>

<?end call?>

<?end body?>

The template that I am trying to call "cover" is declared in cover_rst present at \PMAR2(Local Machine Address). We have installed the BIP Desktop on my local Machine.
