Error description

  • A CAF error occurs when trying to hit the default action URL for
    a PowerPlay Studio report in 10.1.1. The error displayed to the
    user is:??"DPR-ERR-2079 Firewall Security Rejection. Your
    request was rejected by the security firewall.  ?CAF rejection
    details are available in the log. Please contact your
    administrator." ???This issue seems to be specific to PowerPlay
    studio. Default action URLs to reports created in other studios
    such as report studio do not see this issue. ?A fiddler trace
    shows that default action URLs for PowerPlay Studio reports do
    not setup the session cookies (cam_passport, caf,
    usersessionid...) that are setup when hitting a default action
    URL for reports created in other studios.
