Business Objects 4.0 SP6 Version management error

$
0
0

I recently installed Business Objects 4.0 SP6 and everything seems to be running fine except Promotion management and Version management. When I log onto the CMC and go to Promotion management the following error shows up:

 

Sorry, Promotion management application is unable to process your request.: Please check you have sufficient rights to perform this operations.

 

All the servers are up and running and when I go to the CMC / Applications / Version Management settings / Test VMS / I get a successful response.

 

Any ideas why this feature is not working or how I need to configure?

The number of values returned for this LOV exceeds the configured maximum

This message

 

"the number of values returned for this LOV exceeds the configured maximum"

 

occurs in Crystal Enterprise, BI4 SP6 Patch 0, off of a BEx query...where is the maximum configured for enterprise?

 

I believe in previous versions of crystal (2008, 2011) I recall setting a MaxRecords string entry in the registry.

 

Should this work the same for Crystal Enterprise?  I did the same but it doesn't seem to be working (created key, restarted SIA)

 

Also - what are the best practices...ex. we have 100,000 customers returned, but it takes forever.  The user really just wants to enter customer ID and hit go.

 

Thanks,
Matt

SSO - Service Account

$

Hello Experts,

 

We have XIR 3.1 SP4 on Windows Server with Tomcat 5.5, the domain controller is on windows server 2008.

 

As a part of the Windows AD authentication and Single sigle on implementation, the XIR3.1 guide and other posts (blogs) says that the service account is needed to be created and this service account should be a part of local administrator's group on the Business Objects server. Also this service account should have appropriate right "Act as a Part of the Operating System" on the server.

 

Now, we don't have either of the above settings configured, but still the windows authentication is working and even single sign on? Does anyone know how?

 

Is it not mandatory that the service account should be added to the local administrators group with proper rights?

 

Thanks in advance,

Hello

 

I'm trying to set up SSO for a BO4 install.

 

I have SSO for client tools working.

I have silent SSO through working for WebI while I have -Dcom.wedgetail.idm.sso.password=<PASSWORD> in the java settings.

 

When I add the keytab, change the global.properties file to include idm.keytab and remove the wedgetail from the java silent SSO stops working.

 

I've followed the instructions to the letter.#

 

Any clues?

Universe workflow question

$
0
0

Hello,

 

Please could someone advise me on the correct workflow for moving a Universe (.unx) from a development to a QA / production environment.

We’re using BO 4.0 SP5 Patch 2 and trying to use a Universe to audit BO usage. I’ve used one of the sample audit universes for Oracle to achieve this in development.

 

How should I now move this to QA / Production to audit the relevant QA and Production BO databases?

 

I've tried couple of things:

 

  • Use Promotion Management to move the Connection, Universe and WEBI reports from Dev to QA. However then I’m not sure at which point I need to change the connection to point at the QA audit database. If I try to edit the connection in QA from IDT and change the settings I get an error “[Data Federator Driver] Unexpected exception: com.crystaldecisions.thirdparty.org.omg.CORBA.UNKNOWN: null”

 

  • Create a new connection in IDT on the QA server point to the QA audit database and then use this as a source this the existing Data Foundation and Business Layer and then publish the Universe.  However then it seems the WEBI reports would need to be redeveloped in QA as the Universe would have a different CUID?

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction please.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi experts,

 

I have created a report in Crystal Enterprise 4.0 on the top of SAP BEx query. When i tried to execute the report in Crystal Enterprise and i am having the Java heap space error but when i execute the same query in BEx designer and in the BI-4 Launchpad it's running fine. I looked on several threads regarding the issue and found one OSS Note: 1674114 suggested by one of the experts. We implemented the note but still having the same symptom.

Could anyone of you add some light on that issue?

 

Thanks for your help in advance.

Has anybody installed Business Objects XI (11) on Windows 2008 (64 or 32 bit)?

Has anybody installed Business Objects on Windows 2008 (64 or 32 bit)?

Long story short... we have to get off of Windows 2000. We have a need for version 11 (XI) and I am unable to get the IIS option to not be grayed out.

Even when IIS and ASP.net roles are installed.

I can select the Tomcat and MSDE options at install but then the services fail to start at the end of the install.

 

If anybody has any insight on this please share if you can.

 

thanks a ton.

I could not find any good articles explaining how to track down where the resources are going. Can someone point me in the right direction

Embed CR reports into Email

$

Hi,

 

I want to embed a CR into Outlook's email while keeping all the formatting so I can send scheduled emails periodically. (I do not want this as an attachment.)

 

I have tried it in 2 ways:

 

- using Publication tool in BOE via mHTML format. It shows the charts/graphs but loses the formatting really quickly for everything else and does not support colours

 

- using LiveOffice to bring in CR elements into emails but I cannot find a way to schedule the emails periodically, also I cannot bring in manually drawn elements (ie: fake tables)

 

Is there another option I can consider? I can dive into the CR SDK if needed but I prefer not to.

 

Thanks.
