Failed to execute with the error Overflow converting from...

I have a query filter for UPC in Webi Report. The report is not working for one UPC (for other UPC's the report is working fine)...it gives error "failed to execute with the error Overflow converting from '6218090010'. (WIS 10901)". The same error is coming when I ran MDX in MDXTEST command in BW. When I take the UPC filter from the query filter the report runs fine and I see this UPC in the report. The data source is Bex and we have recently upgraded to SAP EHP 1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0.

Hi,
Under normal circumstances it should be enough to restart the connection service.
As far as we know there is no formal solution to this problem from SAP yet but restarting the connection service is much less of an interuption compared to restarting the the SIA.
Re-starting the connection service should resolve this issue. since, Connection service is only related to DeskI and Rich Client re-statrng wonu2019t impact other business objects components including java report panel.
All the Best,

  • Premiere elements 11 failed to install with the error about shared technologies

    PRE 11 failed to install with the error "The installation process has encountered an error while installing shared technologies. Please restart your system and try again" all that does is uninstall everything and I have to restart agin with the same error and we go on. So far the only way it is working is at the point of the "error message" I run task manager and stop the installer, I know it's leaving files that should be removed by the installer, but it worked. This information was gained on one of the forums and seems to work. Yesterday was the first time I really used it fully and although I was able to create a project I cannot output it as a file (mpg), it starts to output ok then throws up an error and fails. As PRE 10 was still installed I imported the project (which amazed me) into PRE 10 and outputted as required with no error. All this may be due to something being wrongly installed or not being installed in PRE 11, I don't know. Can anybody help

  • Server Manager fails to load with the error "A device attached to the system is not functioning"

    I'm at a dead end on this.  I can't find anything online that involves this error and the Server Manager and I cannot find anything in the event viewer being generated from this error.

    I am constantly seeing this error at multiple sites on Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 Standard and DataCenter.
    I have counted over 50 different server I manage with services such as   domain controller, hyper-v, file servers, exchange 2013, SQL 2008/2012, and print servers.
    I have seen it happen on machine that have been in production for over 2 years and to machines that were just created last week.
    It is happening on metal, hyper-v and esx vmware servers.
    It is happening when the machine have updates waiting or no updates, or after updates have been applied and awaiting a restart.
    It is happening on Dell PowerEdge server, HP Proliant servers and IBM servers.
    It is happening on servers with Intel and AMD chip-sets.
    It is happening on machines that are a part of a domain or in a workgroup.
    It is happening on machines with AV of Bitdefendor, Trend Micro, Vipre, Microsoft Endpoint, and Symantec Endpoint.
    Only a restart will fix it.
    I have ran process monitor on several of the problem machines and I cannot find anything.
    Since I have only started seeing this about 6 month ago it must be a Windows update causing it.

  • Report and Alert don't executed in the error handler with a JMS proxy service

    Hi,
    I'm working with OSB 11.1.1.4.0 and I'm facing a problem with the error handler of my JMS proxy service.
    My error handler contains two main elements :
    - a Report action
    - an Alert with a JMS destination defined
    When the business service failed the message remain in the queue. It's the expected behavior.
    The problem is :
    - the report is missing
    - the alert is raised but missing in the JMS destination defined in the Alert setting.
    I've noticed if I add a Reply with Failure or Success, Report and Alert are successfully executed.
    Unfortunately the message don't remain in the JMS queue.
    What can I do in order to have my report/alert done and the JMS transaction rollback in order to keep the message in the queue ?
    I've already met this problem in the past with alsb v3 and my solution was to add Service Callout in the error handler in order to externalize these actions.
    This solution is not convenient and I hope another solution is possible.

    Inventorying workgroups can be difficult, especially when it comes to remote access and network security. Because workgroups are not centrally managed, some of the items discussed in this
    wiki article on preparing your workgroup environment may require you to visit each machine individually.
    For non-domain credentials, you do not use the <systemname>\<user> format, you simply enter the user name. Regarding how to enter the credentials, if you have an account that uses the same username and password on all machines and is an administrator
    on all of those machines, then you can enter that in the All computers credentials page of the wizard. You can also do this if they are different user names. However, if some machines have an account with the same user name, such as Administrator,
    but different passwords on each machine, you will need to use the Manually enter computer names discovery method, and then enter the information for each group or each machine.
    As you can tell, workgroup environments can quickly negate any benefit that the agentless inventory nature of MAP provides.

You'll need at least 3x as much drive space as is available on the physical box you're converting. For example, if your physical server has a 72GB disk, you'll need ~200GB of free disk space on the Oracle VM Server.

  • Migration from Exchange 2007 to 2013 gives error "Failed to communicate with the mailbox database'

    I have been trying to migrate several databases from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. The migration started successfully, and many of the mailboxes moved successfully (about 70). The remaining mailboxes, failed. Looking deeper, we found a few issues; The
    two 2013 Mailbox servers were on different versions. The Server had run out of disk space, and the NIC drivers needed to be updated.

  • DISPLAY/PRINT MY EXPENSE REPORTS UNDER TERA FAILS WITH THE ERROR MESSAGE

    Hi Techies,
    When i click on "Display/print" button under my expense report ( Employee --> Travel & expenses --> Manage Expenses (TERA) --> My trip reports), it opens up a new window with the error message "SOAP Framework error: SOAP Runtime Exception: CSoapExceptionTransport : HTTP send failed with exception communication_failure(100,101)."
    This behaviour is noticed in the new upgraded system NW 701 SP7 (portal) and backend ECC 6.0 EHP4; However it works perfectly fine with our non-upgraded system NW 70 SP10 (portal) and backend ECC 6.0.
    When i ran the trace on this functionality, i could notice that in the non-upgraded system, after pulling all the values, it calls the RFC function module "PTRM_WEB_FORM_HTML_GET"; however the upgraded system calls "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET".
    For the "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET", I believe we need to configure the "ADS" rfc pointing to the ADS service on a j2ee server which am not planning for.
    MY QUESTION IS:-
    IS THERE ANY OPTION TO CHANGE THE FORM BEING CALLED FROM "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET" TO "PTRM_WEB_FORM_HTML_GET" WHICH I BELIEVE WILL RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AM FACING?
    Kindly assist with your thoughts!1
    -GK

    Read the steps on note 1032311 on how to achieve it,
    In Web Dynpro, the Parameter for Formula is Defaulted to PDF file. If
    you don't want to use the ADOBE Form in ESS, you have to follow 2 steps:
    Solution
        o  Check the Homepage framework configuration.
      In IMG (transaction SIMGH) go in Travel Management->Employee Self
    Service->Homepages Framework->Ressources
    Delete the URL parameter "sap.xss.tra.UsePdf=true" of the ressource
    "EMPLOYEE_TRAVEL_TRIPFORM_SRV05".
      Check that the field URL for PCD file is filled with
    ROLES://portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.bp_fol
    der/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.roles/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/
    com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.area_trave
    l_expenses/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.tripform
      Normally if it is not filled in your client, the system should use the
    one from client 000, that is the SAP delivered customizing.
        o  Check the Portal PCD configuration
      Logon on to your SAP portal as Administrator.
      In the Content Administration - Portal content, select Content
    provided by SAP->end User Content->Employee Self Service->iViews->Travel
    and Expenses->Display Trip Form
      Right Click on Display Trip Form and Select Object->Open
      In the field Application Parameters, you will find a parameter
                                                                     Page 2
    sap.xss.tra.UsePdf=true . Delete this line completely.
    When this configuration is done, the PDF form is desactivated and the
    HTML form is used.
    This is the issue with ADOBE set up
    Firstly, I would ask you to check the customizing steps from 944221
    to ensure no issue with the ADS configuration for the pdf form.
    to review OSS note 925741 as there can be a issue with the
    platform validity and version.

  • External Drive Disk Erase Failed with the Error Input/Output Error

    I have 2 hard drives in an external FW800 enclosure that I am unable to format. When I go to initialize the drives in Disk Utility, I get the following error message: "Disk Erase failed with the error: Input/output error."
    The drives show up in Disk Utility, but I can't repair them (that option is grayed out). Disk Utility correctly ID's the manufacturer of the drives (Maxtor), their size (200gb each), so it's obviously seeing that the drives are there. But it won't let me format them.
    The drives are new, by the way; they don't have any data/files on them. I have Disk Warrior, but the drives don't show up there to be repaired -- probably because they aren't formatted yet.
    After looking at other posts, I tried switching the jumper settings around on the drives -- from Master/Slave to cable select and back again, but it didn't help. I also tried doing a zero erase (even though the drives are new), zapping the PRAM -- again, no help.
    One question I had is whether this could be a bad FW800 cable? The cable is new -- it came with the enclosure, which is an OWC Dual FW 800 enclosure. Other than that, does anyone have any other thoughts about what's causing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Matthew

    SOLUTION!!!!
    I had the exact same problem. I have the original 20 GB hard drive that came in my Powerbook G4 550MHz and a couple of years ago I traded up for a 60 GB drive and bought a FW/USB enclosure for my original drive to use it to backup my important files. I hadn't backed up in over a year (shame on me!) and I decided maybe I should erase the drive and start from scratch. It was connected via USB.
    At that point DiskUtility gave me the exact same Input/Output error. I tried partitioning the drive into 1 or more partitions but came up with the same error. I couldn't figure out what was wrong so I decided to startup in OS 9.2.2, I did that and let it start up, then plugged in the hard drive and it gave me the standard "This disk is unrecognizable, do you want to eject or erase?" so I clicked Initalize. It worked!
    Just make sure you choose the MacOS Extended option when initializing out of OS 9 (instead of the MacOS Standard option) so it can be read and viewed in OS X.
    If your computer is too new to be able to boot from an OS 9 folder on your drive or an OS 9 CD, then see if a friend or a local library has older computers that are running OS 9 or can boot from it. If not let me know and you can send me your drive and I'll reformat it.
    Kind of crazy...I haven't used the OS 9 partition on my HD in YEARS...was even thinking about erasing it since I don't use any Classic applications anymore...good thing I didn't!

  • Is my HD Dead? Reformat Disk Utility Error: secure disk erase failed with the error could not open disk.

    Hi,
    Fed up with seeing the spinning beach ball I decided to reformat my MacBook Pro...
    After backing up everything on an external hard drive I put in the OSX install DVD, restarted the machine and held down 'C'.
    I followed the install prcedure, clicking next a few times etc...
    I then went into Utilities > Disk Utility. I chose 7-Pass to erase the Macintosh HD and set it off erasing.
    I checked the process an hour in and message on screen read:
    Secure disk erase failed with the error:
    could not open disk
    The internal hard drive no longer exists in the disk utility so I cant retry erasing it.
    The only thing that appears in disk utility is the OSX install DVD.
    I can't even shut down the mac as everything under the apple tab is greyed out!
    I'm guessing this means my hard drive is broken right?
    If anyone has any other ideas of what to try I'd really appreciate that.
    How do I turn the machine off?
    If my hard drive is gone then should I consider getting an SSD drive?
    Any recommendations for such a drive would be great.
    Hope you can help!

    Did you partition the drive?
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

    Hi again OGELTHORPE.
    I've already run two hardware tests. One quick one and one extended one. It was unable to pick anything up.
    It's like everything is running perfectly, but when I go to erase the HDD or partition it, it pops up with the error message. Even when I try to erase and partition using "Terminal", I received the same error message.
    It's beginning to do my head in, but will see if replacing the SATA cable will make any difference. If it doesn't, I'll hazard a guess it could be the Logic Board.
    Thanks again for your suggestions!
