What is the error message? Or is it something like multiple browser windows opening up?

I am sorry guys.I was in very worst schedule all these days and came back to old issues today.
Parent Report  and Child (Target) Report Both are  in PDF format.I choosed the parameters exactly whatever I created in the Child(Target) report.I executed the parent report and it ran well in pdf format but when I clicked on Hyperlinks( in this example OrderID ) , not running anything.I am seeing HTTP 404 error. this is happening only for PDF to PDF out purt.Any ideas , please share.
Thanks ,
