displaying images in a ColdFusion Report (cfr)

Question

I am playing around with graphs and reports. The requirement
is to be able to produce reports in PDF and/or RTF with graphs
included. Overall cfdocument may be my solution but it does not
have the rtf option.

One solution I was testing was using WebChart3D code to
create the images and then passing the location of the images into
a Cold Fusion Report for display. I did this by creating a simply
query with one column holding the location of the three graphs I
have. All the report does is display a single chart per page.*

This works great on my XP laptop but when I moved it to our
linux box I get an error saying “No such file or
directory”. I have checked both directory and file are there.
And yes it lists the correct directory and file (case matched). So
I am wondering if it is a permissions issue. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Joel

* Yes I know Report Builder allows you to create graphs.
However, we have a requirement for the graphs themselves that so
far I have not been able to meet using the Report Builder graphing
tool even though it is quite good.

Ok, slight change but essentially still the same problem.

I was missing a "/" at the beginning of the path to the image. I corrected that and now I get...

Report data binding error Image not found :

... so I have essentially the same issue. I changed the report to do nothing other than display the image. The path is hard coded into the report.
