I want to place my company logo on the BI launch Pad.

 

I have copied the Logo under the folder BOINSTALL\SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB -INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView\web\images

 

Updated the file SAP_logo_reg.png with the company logo.

 

But the issue is - the company logo is been cutoff.

 

How can i resize the space where the current SAP logo is, in order to fit my company logo??

Crystal Reports Enterprise - Direct DB conn throwing error when exporting to BI4.1

Hi,

 

I have created a report in Crystal Enterprise. for the connection, I created using "Connection by Vendor" option using the below driver:

Oracle --> Oracle 11 --> Oracle OCI

I'm able to get data in the report but when I try to export it to the BI Server, I get the below error:

"This report contains a data source connection that cannot be saved to SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence (BI) Platform."

 

so my question is how can I save the connection which I created to the repository. Do I have to depend only on the Relational connections created using Universe designer? If yes, then what is the purpose of this option in the Crystal Enterprise?

 

we are on BI4.1 SP1

 

Thanks,

Ravi

Auditing Universe Activity

Hello,

 

I am attempting to audit universe activity as some developers are changing joins and other things that are causing issues for everyone else that reports to that universe.  No one is sure who is doing what within the universe so I am trying to use the auditing universe to aduit....well, universes.  I'm able to audit reports within all of the universes but I'm unable to figure out how to audit the universe activities themselves.

 

Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be greatly greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

BOXI XI 3.1 SP7 & Oracle Java 6 Issues?

$

Hello,

 

We are currently running BusinessObjects  Enterprise XI 3.1 SP4 and intend to upgrade to 3.1 SP7 due to Internet Explorer 11 being rolled out at our organisation.

 

Our client computers will remain using Oracle Java 6 with Internet Explorer 11. In the document "SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP7 for Windows – Supported Platforms" the Support Browsers section only lists Oracle Java 7 as a supported JVM.

 

Is anyone aware of what the issues are with using Oracle Java 6 and BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP7?

 

Thanks

Unable to open a Crystal Report through CMC or Launchpad. It throws the below error

 

"The viewer could not process an event.  Failed to open the connection - Error code:0 [CRWEB00000119]"

 

Tried updating the 14 character length long password for the Database user but once i say update the encrypted password length reduced to 10 character.

 

So, i am not sure whether the correct password getting updated or not? Do we have any length limitations here? Could you please help.

 

Other reports created on top of the same database is running fine.

ODBC 32bit and 64 bit DSN is configured for MS SQL server. Not sure what's going wrong.

I see many of them like me faced this issue. Is it a product bug. If not, why many customers like us are getting this issue. Why SAP is not doing a permanent fix to it.

We are using BO 4.0 SP6.

 

Thanks!!

Data Access Differencein Enterprise and SAP Account

$

Hi Experts,

 

 

I just wanted to inquire this issue experienced by our users belonging to a specific user group.  The users are getting "Failed to connect to the OLAP source " whenever they are refreshing the data.  I've checked and found that the user group has enough privilege in both Folders and OLAP Connection.

 

These users are accessing Launchpad using their SAP Account; and they are experiencing the issue here.  However, when they their Enterprise account, it works just fine.

 

We have users with 1 Enterprise account having the SAP alias and other users with separate entries for the Enterprise and SAP account in CMC.  But all of them are still getting the error when they use their SAP account to access the Launchpad.

 

Regards,

Mark

I can log in to the CMC with AD authentication just fine as can several others but we have a few users with the same AD setup and my own and they can not login. I also had one user who coudl log in fine at 3 and then an hour later they could not.

 

And ideas on where to troubleshoot. It seems that everything I find is related to setting up SSO and new installation. But we have been up and running without any problems for some time.

Webi Variable Challenge

BI 4.1 Enterprise Webi.

 

Guys,

 

In the below table (expand the picture to see it all), we wish to insert a field called "Operator Name" (yellow).


This Operator Name value will come from the table on the left hand side and should be a variable. Basically we need to do some sort of look up to check if there was an operator logged into the machine at the time that the "Alarm" (right hand table) occured.

 

i.e. Alarm occurred at 07:15, which operator was logged on? Answer= Joe. Alarm occurred at 08:33, which operator was logged on? Answer=unknown

 

Is this possible using a Web-i variable?

BO Webi Export to CSV Text Qualifier opt xir3 sp5 Full build vs Upgrade path

$
0
0

Hi, can anybody tell me how I can get the 3 option (space) as a Text Qualifier when saving a Webi doc as a CSV. In Prod we have upgraded to SP5 thru the modify path on the install media and do not have this option. In Dev we did a fresh install of SP5 using the same media disc and there we get a 3rd option when saving to csv. both versions are XIR3 sp5 but show different builds via the CMC. Is this option controlled by an xml property file on the app server? Refreshing the Prod instance with a new BO install is not a good option - too many obstacles. This is the only difference I've noted and one that is causing an extra step to strip off double quotes from scheduled Webi docs delivered as CSV files to a file share in Prod.

 

Dev: Build Date:  2012/02/17:02:04:34

Build Number:  1265

Product Version:  12.5.0.1265

 

Prod: Build Date:  2011/11/29:21:00:17

Build Number:  1190

Product Version:  12.5.0.1190


I've attached the screen shots illustrating the issue. Bottom line is that I need the Space option as a Text Qualifier. Any ideas how to acquire this 3rd option? Thanks.

I created alerts in Crystal reports 2011 and CRe and saved them to BI platform, scheduled both reports and am able to view the alerts in the history of both reports. So far good, but I don't see 'Subscribe' option in right context menu.

 

-> I am using Admin account and have full control also (Subscribe to Alerts and view this Object in the CMC) granted

-> CMC/ Applications/Manage/ Alerting Application/ Manage Properties - checked 'Enable My Alerts' & 'Enable Email'

-> BI 4.0 SP7 Patch2

-> CR2011 & CRe 4.0 SP7P2

 

 

SAP DOC shows 'subscribe' option, but not for us, am I missing something??

is there any easy way to extract the installs from EXE? Multipart rar files gets extracted first before the install. But updates & patches extracts to %temp% folder and starts the install automatically. After the install the files are deleted automatically. I would like to extract upfront to save sometime. I tried some commandline options but no go. I understand I can get some 3rd party tools to extract the exe's but its not an option in our case due to various security reasons. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks!

Data Services not supporting extended character set

We are running Data Services 14.1.2 using Oracle as the source and destination databases.  The source database is using Character Set WE8ISO8859P15, the destination database is WE8MSWIN1252.  The source columns are defined as CHAR and the destination columns are VARCHAR2.  The source table has a value of Z2BÂTIMENTS when looking at the data through SQL Developer.  Data Services is converting it to Z2BATIMENTS even when looking at the data using the "View Data" option on the input table.  I've changed the "Code page" and Server code page" settings in the data store trying many options.  Nothing corrects the problem.  How do I configure Data Services to use the extended character set?

Hi,

 

I almost find no information how to set up a SQL Server connection using ODBC on a unix platform.

 

This is what I get when I try to refresh my crystal report on my BO Server (4.1):

 

"The viewer could not process an event. Error in file XXX.rpt:

Error loading database information"

 

.) is the port number really separated from the server by comma? (http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir4/en/xi4sp10_data_acs_en.pdf)

 

.) where is the right place to speficy the SQL Server isntance name (SQLInstanceA in this case)? I didn't find any information about that?

 

[MYDB]

Driver=/opt/BOBJ/xir4/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/aix_rs6000/odbc/lib/CRsqls24.so

(for 64bit: Driver=/opt/BOBJ/xir4/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/aix_rs6000_64/odbc/lib/CRsqls24.so)

BI Launchpad - Missing Tabs (Home/Documents/Preferences) - IE 10

$
0
0

Hello,

 

The BI Launchpad is embedded as a tab in our SAP portal. When I open the BI Launchpad via the portal I briefly can see the top bar containing the Home/Documents tabs, Preferences link etc, then about 1/2 a second later it disappears completely dropping me into the Documents tab, albeit missing the tabs bar on the top of the screen.  When I open the BI Launchpad via the direct link I have no problem seeing the Home/Documents tabs, preferences etc. I am on IE 10, Windows 7 SP1, and BI 4.1 SP02 (Version: 14.1.2.1121). According to the PAM documents for 4.1 this shouldn't be a problem as it is supported.  I tested this with the latest version of firefox and it does not have the same problem, so that rules out security.


Anyone have an idea as to why this might be happening?


Thanks for looking,

Gary
