BI publisher report : why "Database Usage Tracking Summary"  repport is empty ?

Hi everyone,
I'me using BI publisher intergated to Grid Control12c (R3), trying to get "Database Usage Tracking Summary" report folowing Oracle documentation (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e24473/usage_reports.htm#EMADM13568)
And I have 2 problems :
1) FTPburst delivery is not working, sftp is configured but still have the folowing error
Echec de la distribution.
[INSTANCE_ID=gs00slli052.occ.lan.1424277393149] [OUTPUT_ID=1973]
Echec de distribution du document
[INSTANCE_ID=gs00slli052.occ.lan.1424277393149] [DELIVERY_ID=1974]Error deliver document to FTP::Exception happened when calling deliver API::Error deliver document to FTP::FILE=[::Exception happened when calling deliver API::oracle.xdo.delivery.ssh2.SshException: Error in writing data Broken pipeoracle.xdo.service.delivery.DeliveryException: oracle.xdo.delivery.ssh2.SshException: Error in writing data Broken pipe
at oracle.xdo.service.delivery.impl.DeliveryServiceI
2) Since FTPburst delivery is not working, i decide to try mail delivery. The delivery itself is working but the report is empty (see Sortie1.xls in attachements)
So i don't know why is it empty.
Can someone   guide me  ?

Hi,
Thank You for your quick reply. The table permission was alright.
Its very strange that, we configure usage tracking in obiee 11.1.1.6.0 using enterprise manager and that how all document says. And then it should automatically update the "NQSCONFIG.INI". But it was not updated there. So we need to change all configuration settings in both "Enterprise Manager" and also in the "NQSCONFIG.INI". Then it works fine!!
Thanks,
BK.

  • Usage Tracking  for BI Publisher

    We need to track Oracle BI EE Suite user's activity. There is Usage Tracking option in exSiebel products making possible to track what and when user did. It's needed to do similar audit for BI Publisher.
    It's works "by itself" for Publisher reports built on top of BI Server infrastructure. Usage Tracking does all the job. But what should we do to audit reports using direct sql requests to the database?
    PS
    We have sucurity model integrated with Oracle BI EE Server

    Here is an interview with Kurt Wolff, which is one of the original OBIEE developers from the nQuire days:
    http://obibb.wordpress.com/2010/08/23/obibb-%E2%80%93-interviews-kurt-wolff/
    This is particularly relevant of how I feel about OBIEE 11g so far...
    "I don’t really know if there are any new features that are important to me in my current work or not. There may be features that help Oracle sell more product, but that’s different.
    Over two years ago I submitted a list of 20 “little” enhancements that, as someone who on a daily basis worked developing analytic apps with OBIEE, I thought would be really beneficial. They were “little” in the sense that I thought the dev team could knock them all out in less than three weeks’ time. Seriously big impact with seriously little work.
    Instead, we’re getting what appears to be a major re-write of the product, which raises questions in my mind about compatibility, unlearning, and new bugs. What I know about new features – well, they’re not so compelling. Sure, if you have a need to integrate Essbase with your other data, that’s good. But in my present situation, it’s irrelevant, and I’m planning on taking a lot of time to evaluate the new release before moving ahead with it."

  • Store XML Publisher report in the database

    Hi all,
    Is is possible to generate an XML Publisher report in the background and store the report as a blob in the database. I have an APEX application that needs to generate the report when the user clicks an 'Update' button. This report can then be accessed at a later date (via a hyper-link on another page) and will show the report that was stored on that date. Basically the report needs to be point in time.
    Thanks
    Grant

    Hi,
    you might have your reasons to want to store the entire report in the db as an object ... But wouldn't it be simpler to just add an extra DATE column to filter, and generate the report at runtime?
    What if the data changes in the meantime?
    Just, an idea ...
    Grtz.

  • Write to the database from a BI Publisher report

    I have a requirement to setup a BI Publisher report that writes a snapshot of data to a database table whenever the report is run.
    Putting aside whether doing this is a good idea or not (I'd prefer not to do it for security reasons) if I were to do it in SQL server (that i'm more familiar with) I'd write a stored procedure that does this and enter "exec storedprocedurename" as the report query.
    From searching through this board I see that I'm supposed to use a pipelined function instead of a stored procedure but I'm unclear if once I have setup the pipelined function that I'll be able to achieve my objective of both returning the data to the report as well as writing it to a snapshot table, is this possible? If so then I have some questions as I don't really understand the syntax with my limited pl/sql knowledge.
    create type numset_t as table of number; --where does this go, it doesn't appear to be part of the function?
    create function f1(x number) return numset_t pipelined is
    begin
    for i in 1..x loop
    pipe row(i);
    end loop; -- do I need to do a looP? i just want to do select *...
    return;
    end;
    select * from table(f1(3)); -- again this appears to be outside the function, where does it go?
    Thanks
    Bruce

    Jorge:
    I was looking into something similar some time ago. The suggested solution may or may not work for you, depending on what it is you want to write to the tables. I was trying to write audit information - who ran what report when. Through BI Publisher template variables I could get the who and the when, but not what report was being run, so the report trigger option wasn't of any use to me.
    In the end, I opted to change the attributes of the report so that the "show controls" checkbox is unchecked and make users run all reports through BI Publisher Scheduler. It turns out that reports run via the scheduler have all of that data saved off and you can see it from the Schedules/History display.
    Good luck,

  • Database view initialization in BP Publisher report

    Hi,
    I am novice to BI Publisher and trying to create some sample report in BI Publisher. The data source for my report is database, hence i have written a query based on view from APPS database. when i try to run the report, it does not show any data coz i did not make org id initialization for view. Can anyone suggest me how can i initialize the view in BI publisher.
    Thanks for your help,
    Regards,
    AS
    Edited by: user9959418 on Nov 4, 2008 9:35 PM

    I am sorry if my question was not clear. I meant to say is, when you develop a report in Oracle reports 6i that time in case multi-org env, if we use views in our query then in before report trigger we use :
    begin
    dbms_application_info.set_client_info('ORG_ID);
    end;
    Is there any provision to use the same in case of BI publisher?
    I hope i am clear with my question.
    Thanks,

    could not enable any relevant MIME types, so I guess it is not possible, right?
    or can I enable FR MIME types somehow?

  • Publishing reports to Enterprise - Remote database access.

    Enterprise newbie.
    I can publish a report that accesses a database residing on the same server as Crystal Enterprise. Under the CMC, report process, database, I'm using the default report DB connections option. It runs fine in the user mode.
    The Problem
    Attempting to publish a report accessing a database not located on the same server as Crystal Enterprise, I get theis error: " There was an error retrieving data from the server: The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect. "
    I've tried a number of variations on the process database setup and have established user accouts on the remote server, using that accout as the report user and pw under process - database. 
    Both reports created on my desktop with ODBC conections.
    I think I am missing some page or cache server set-up.  Any suggestions appriciated.
    Paul

    Hi,
    If the ODBC connection is set up properly then make sure the servers  in the CCM are running on the domain administrator account.
    Please revert in case of any queries

  • Can UPK Usage Tracking Database be on Linux

    Gurus,
    Can we have UPK tracking database created on linux or only windows is supported.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Currently the Usage Tracking server application requires IIS. However, the database associated with the Usage Tracking application server can be installed on a Linux machine assuming the database software itself supports Linux. Please refer to the [UPK Technical Specifications|http://www.oracle.com/applications/tutor/upk-technical-specification-data-sheet.pdf] for a list of support database software.

  • Do we have any option to track the number of downloaded reports from the OBIEE dashboard or Analysis by the user using usage tracking.

    Do we have any option to track the number of downloaded reports from the OBIEE dashboard or Analysis by the user using usage tracking.

    I'll ask the question of our onsite Microsoft consulting guys, but it's my understanding that as enterprise admins, we have no controls over it. This is an outcome of putting the end-users in charge of their own destiny.
    We can revoke a user's entitlement to Office365ProPlus in the portal and via scripts, but AFAIK only the user controls the allocation of their entitlement.
    Revoking an assignment/allocation, when logged in as the user, doesn't require access to the assigned/allocated computer, but if the information about the assigned/allocated computers in the portal is vague or ambiguous, it's easy to revoke the "wrong" one.
    There's not much here in this forum about the hosted/cloudy aspects, since this forum is mainly about the client-side bits (the client applications, setup and configuration of those) - so in here, I usually refer people off to the O365 community for the
    portal and hosted stuff.
    (we have MS onsite at the moment for a big planning piece, around O365 and also Win8.1 and VDI. I'm not usually this lucky to have those guys on tap ;)

  • ORA-09100 specified length too long for its datatype with Usage Tracking.

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm getting an (ORA-09100 specified length too long for its datatype) (a sample error is provided below) when viewing the "Long-Running Queries" from the default Usage Tracking Dashboard. I've isolated the problem to the logical column "Logical SQL" corresponding to the physical column "QUERY_TEXT" in the table S_NQ_ACCT. Everything else is working correctly. The logical column "Logical SQL" is configured as a VARCHAR of length 1024 and the physical column "QUERY_TEXT" is configured as a VARCHAR2 of length 1024 bytes in an Oracle 11g database. Both are the default configurations and were not changed.
    In the the table S_NQ_ACCT we do have record entries in the field "QUERY_TEXT" that are of length 1024 characters. I've tried various configuration such as increasing the the number of bytes or removing any special character but without any sucess. Currently, my only possible workaround is reducing the "Query_Text" data entries to roughly 700 characters. This makes the error go away. Additional point my character set to WE8ISO8859P15.
    - Any suggestions?
    - Has anyone else ever had this problem?
    - Is this potentially an issue with the ODBC drive? If so, why would ODBC not truncate the field length?
    - What is the maximum length supported by BI, ODBC?
    Thanks in advance for everyones help.

    I beleieve I have found the issue for at least one report.
    We have views in our production environment that call materialized views on another database via db link. They are generated nightly to reduce load for day-old reporting purposes on the Production server.
    I have found that the report in question uses a view with PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION. In the remote database, this is a VARCHAR2(1995 Bytes) column. However, when we create a view in our Production environment that simply calls this materialized view, it moves the length to VARCHAR2(4000).
    The oddest thing is that the longest string stored in the MV for that column is 71 characters long.
    I may be missing something here.... But the view that Discoverer created on the APPS side also has a column length for the PRODUCT_DESCRIPTION column of VARCHAR2(4000) and running the report manually returns results less than that - is this a possible bug?

  • Really weird problem with Usage Tracking!

    Hi guys
    We are running OBIEE 11.1.1.6.5 on Exalytics and allmost all is fine and dandy. We have though one weird problem. When we first enabled usage tracking, we sudddenly got some errors on some of our dashboards, saying that we didn't have the privilegies to create temporary tables. Allright we got our user (which is a shared user) the privilegies to create temporary tables, and the reports with the problems started working again! Awesome! But low and behold - then Usage Tracking stopped working, not a single mentioning in the logfiles about it. Maybe an error or, the acknowledgement that Usage Tracking has started, which is the normal.
    So basically we are running without Usage Tracking because the reports that gives us the problems are deemed more important... which they might be, but thats different story...
    Any ideas to what is going on here? We have collected Usage Tracking data, while the reports were broke, so im quite confident that the setup is correct. But why would it stop, when giving "create table" privilege to our shared user?
    Best regards, Jacob

    Have you tried chaging the output to file instead of database?

  • Problem with data size in XML Publisher report

    Hi Experts,
    I am working on EBS11i and database 9i. I working on XML Publisher reports, i have one XML Publisher report with generating output in EXCEL format. If i submit the report, if the data is huge (like 2.3 million records), it's ending up with warning, but if data is less, it's completing normal. Could somebody help me why it's behaving like this, is it because the report is XML Report, the xml file it's generating not have enough memory in server side if the data is huge.
    Could somebody help me how to solve this issue.
    Note: I need output in EXCEL format only.

    Pl identify the version of XMLP you are using.
    Pl post the complete warning message from the concurrent log file. Are there any additional error messages in the Output Post Processor log file ? Have you specified enough temp space using the XML Publisher Administrator responsibility ?
