Hi,

 

Am facing a error while installing LCM SP5, before we have installed LCM SP3 version. Since our BOE is SP5 we are planning to upgrade the LCM version.

But when i try to install the SP5 am facing the following error

 

"You are trying to install to a directory where a current or newer version of BusinessObjects LifeCycle Manager is already installed. Please choose another directory."

 

 

I have also tried installing the SP5 in different directory, if i do am getting the following error

 

"There is no valid BOE installation at :/opt/location"

 

 

What should i do to complete the installation, Should i uninstall the present SP3 to install the SP5..

 

 

 

 

Thanks

AdaptiveProcessingServer status problem

Hi everyone,

 

I have problem with AdaptiveProcessingServer status (fail) which appears regularly.

 

After servers restart all servers works fine. Next, I remove logs from $SAP_SETUP/logging dir to increase free disk space .

Finally, AdaptiveProcessingServer comes to failed status.

 

 

Analysis of logs in $SAP_SETUP/logging have not proved any error or warning for this server.

Error reading the shared secret from the trusted principal configuration file

Hi,

 

I am trying to connect to BO using Trusted Authentication.

 

  1. Updated the Authentication settings on BO CMS, and then downloaded a TrustedPrincipal.conf
  2. Placed this file in D:\Test
  3. The problem is with the generated TrustedPrincipal.conf file, it seems to have a linefeed and carriage-return as part of the SharedSecret property

 

SharedSecret=

100

Below is the code in the decompiled TrustedPrincipal.class :

        byte[] content = new byte[avail];

        fis.read(content);

 

        String contentStr = new String(content, "UTF-8");

        int carrigeReturnIndex = contentStr.indexOf("\r");

        String line = null;

        if (carrigeReturnIndex != -1) {

          line = contentStr.substring(0, carrigeReturnIndex);

        }

        else {

          int lineFeedIndex = contentStr.indexOf("\n");

          if (lineFeedIndex != -1)

            line = contentStr.substring(0, lineFeedIndex);

          else {

            line = contentStr;

          }

        }

        int equalSignIndex = line.indexOf("=");

        if (equalSignIndex != -1)

          m_sharedSecret = line.substring(equalSignIndex + 1);

        else {

          m_sharedSecret = line;

        }

 

 

Below is the code I am using to connect:

     public static void main(String args[]){  

          try{

            System.setProperty("bobj.trustedauth.home", "D:\\test");

            ISessionMgr sessionMgr = CrystalEnterprise.getSessionMgr();

            ITrustedPrincipal trustedPrincipal = sessionMgr.createTrustedPrincipal("someid", "cmshost:port");

            IEnterpriseSession enterpriseSession = sessionMgr.logon(trustedPrincipal);

            System.out.println(enterpriseSession.getSerializedSession());           

          } catch (SDKException e) {

            System.out.println(e.getDetailMessage());

          }

     }

 

Error Message:There was an error reading the shared secret from the trusted principal configuration file. (FWM 02045)

 

I have seen many examples online nobody seems to mention anything about the special characters in the 'SharedSecret'

 

Thanks,

Running batch files from BO CMC

Hello,

 

We need to run a batch file from BO CMC but always get the message “The Program Object reported an error while running, but no error code was provided.”.

 

We’re using BO XIR3, tried running with local or domain OS users, addressed server policies “Replace Process Level Token Policy”, “Log on as a batch job”, “Adjust memory quotas for a process” and “Access this computer from the network” to OS users, set Program Rights in CMC but still have the error.

 

Does anyone have a clue for what might be needed?

BO 4.0: Crystal reports not visible in BI Lauchpad folder

Crystal Report for Enterprise

 

Hi all,

 

I have created a Crystal Report for Enterprise report on our BO dev system and I have saved it under a folder in our BO dev system.

 

Now it is the first time that I transport the report from BO dev to BO quality using Promotion Management. The log of the promotion show a status 'Success'.

 

But when I check the BO dev Lauchpad I can not find the transported report, under the specified folder. I do see the transported folder. When I use the Crystal Report development client, I can also see the report on the BO dev system under the specified folder. So the transport is passed correctly to the BO qual server, but i just can not see the report using Lauchpad on the BO qual server. I guess there must somewhere be an access level that must be changed on the BO qual server? But I do not find immediately differences between BO DEV and QUAL.

 

Anybody any idea where I have to look ?

 

Kind regards,

Guy Verschueren

Update password for Crystal Report in XI3.1 Enterprise

I am using Crystal Reports 2008 and Edge 3.1 SP%.  We had a major server crash and I am rebuilding everything and I a running across a problem I didn't have previously.

 

I have a report locally that I save up to the Enterprise.  I then open the CMC and right click on that report and choose Database Configuration.I am wanting to set the password from the original uid/pwd from the report.  The UID is correct and stays there but when I update the password and save and then reopen the Database Configuration another password is there.  It is the Administrator password that I use to log into the CMC.  Again, I never had this problem for two years prior to this but every report I add and then try to save the sql password always gets reverted back to the CMC logon password.

 

Thanks for any help in this matter.

I am about to install Crystal Server 2011 and I am confused about the product key. I have received all of my license information from SAP but it seems as if the license key is for 1 named user license and the 5 cal license that we purchased. Am I missing something still, or am I to use of the key's that I was given for the user license?

 

Thank you

I've recently installed 4.0 SP02 in a test environment.

I didn't configure SAP Solution Manager Diagnostics (SMD) during the installation process, and I need change the placeholders that are used to specify the path. Is there any way to edit the placeholder? The CMC does not appear to allow the update of placeholders in CMS.

Hi guys

 

System details:

Crystal Reports for enterprise 4.0

Business Objects SP4 patch 4

 

I am faced up with an reports layout issue on BI launchpad. My Crystal Reports (columns) are neat and well aligned if reports are open from a local machine but columns get misaligned when the same reports are executed on BI launchpad.

 

I have saved the reports directly onto the server and still encounter the same issue.

 

The client is presenting these reports for their Financial Year End through BI Launchpad.

 

Kindly assist if you have any idea of the cause.

CPU based License

$
0
0

I have few questions about SAP BO4.0 Licensing.

We have CPU based License in our Environment. Max we can have 16 CPU’s.

Hence we have used 2 servers which each server is having 8 CPU.

Where servers are running with tomcat and all the BO services. Where all 3 tiers are in both the 2 servers.

  1. Web Tier (Tomcat)
  2. Processing tier
  3. Intelligent tier

Now I would like to remove web server (tomat) in these 2 servers and install it in the new servers.

Tomcat will be installed in 4 CPU servers.

Will the no of CPU count will be increased if we install webi tier particular on dedicated nodes.

Ex:

D1 is one server with 8 CPU ( Tomcat + Intelligence + Processing Tiers)

D2 is the second server with 8 CPU ( Tomcat + Intelligence + Processing Tiers)

Now it has reached the maximum CPU s ( max 16)

Now I would like to remove/Stop Tomcat in D1 and D2 servers and install Webi Tier(Tomcat) in D3 and D4 servers (D3,D4 are new server with 4 CPU Each)

Will the no of CPU will be increased by adding Tomcat in D3 and D4? Will it exceeds the License limit?

Could you please share your expertise on this.
