  • Troubles reinstalling SBOP BI PLATFORM 4.0

    Hello, I struggled to reinstall SBOP BI PLATFORM 4.0, and that does not install the database (SQL SERVER 2008) and hence the SIA service becomes available I tried to erase everything and reinstall but the error persists, then uninstall everything and used a registry cleaner (RegSeeker) but Reintal the error continues, if there is any way to solve this I would appreciate your response.
    Greetings!

    Hi Carmen
    When one refers to reinstalling the SAP BO BI Platform 4.0, there is 2 scenarios applicable:
    1. Reinstall the software including the OS. This rarely has issues since one essentially rebuilds the server
    2. Uninstalling and reinstalling only the SAP BO BI Platform (OS is not reinstalled).
    For point 2 above, there is a few steps one should take note of.
    a. Before uninstalling the BI software, ensure that only 1 SIA exists (delete all others via the CCM - otherwise you will have to later delete them from the Windows Services since these become orphans)
    b.Uninstall the BI platform performing in reverse the installation if you have support packages loaded:
    uninstall sequence:
    1. SBOP BI Explorer 4.0 SP02 patch 8
    2. SBOP BI Platform 4.0 SP02 patch 8
    3. SBOP BI Explorer 4.0 SP02 patch 7
    4. SBOP BI Platform 4.0 SP02 patch 7
    5. SBOP BI Explorer 4.0 SP02 patch 6
    6. SBOP BI Platform 4.0 SP02 patch 6
    7. SBOP BI Explorer 4.0 SP02
    8. SBOP BI Platform 4.0 SP02
    c. Uninstall the Microsoft SQL server software (otherwise conflicts may occur with the reinstallation, also check that the relevant directories are removed)
    d. delete the SAP BusinessObjects directory where it was installed into originally
    e. delete the ".businessobjects" directory
    Then one can start reinstalling (install) the BI software.

  • Patch apply on Windows platforms which bundle one-off patches sets.

    Dear All,
    I need help from urgent basis, If you have document for patch apply on Windows platforms which bundle one-off patches sets.
    For example 10.2.0.3 to Oracle Client patch (7117709) 10.2.0.4 .
    Thanks for all

    Each patch/patchset has a readme file. This file describes how to apply a patch.

  • Servers are rebooting after patch syncronization

    After approving MS-patches through WSUS  all of a sudden servers are getting patched and rebooting. This is happening even after deadline has set. I have got a info like Microsoft re-published patches with same KB name, and it might have already approved
    in some month back so no deadline setting will take effect. If this is the case how we can tackle this.  Appreciate help on this....

    Hi Sankar,
    Are these servers stuck into a rebooting loop? If yes, please enter the safe mode, then remove the update in control panel.
    >>I have got a info like Microsoft re-published patches with same KB name, and it might have already approved in some month back so no deadline setting will take effect.
    Could you please povide the detailed information about this update? I will check if this update has been re-released in my lab.
    Normally, even if two updates have the same KB number, the second update will not inherit the approval from the first one. They are two updates.
    To prevent the server which has downloaded this update from installing it, please follow the steps below:
    Click Start, click Run,  type cmd in the
    Open box,  and then click OK.
    At the command prompt, type  services.msc.
    Right-click Automatic Updates, and then click Stop.
    Rename the C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download folder as follows:
    C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download.old
    In the Services snap-in, right-click   Automatic Updates, and then click
    Start.
    Besides, before deploy the update in production environment, it is recommended that test the update in a test group.

  • Start failed for VM SBOP BI Platform 4.1 due to Amazon Web Services Issue

    Hi Experts,
    I'm having an issue creating an ERP foundation extension instance which interestingly enough I was able to do last week.
    I was having a similar issue to the one in this recent thread: CAL - Connect to an instance of SAP ERP Foundation Extension powered by SAP HANA
    I could create an instance successfully but was not able to connect.  As of now though, I am unable to create an instance and see the attached error message.  There haven't been any changes on the AWS side so I'm wondering if something else changed in the solution update 23 that may be causing this issue.
    Thanks,
    -Brett

    Hi Brett,
    can you please try again to deactivate and activate the solution.
    This operation shares a clean copy with your AWS accounts.
    Does it work afterwards?

    The installation of 'SBOP BI Platform Servers 4.0 SP02 Patch 5' didn't affect this problem, it still has the same error.
    BusinessObjects XI 3.1 is running without problems on that server.
    Any help would be very appreciated!
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello together,
    I could fix this issue without any reinstalling of tomcat. I had the same problem after installtion of Patch 9 of SP2 for BOE 4.0.
    Directly after the installation  I changed the session-timeout parameter in some web.xml's because it was requested by our customer. Because I wanted to have a good documentation of those changes in the web.xml's I created a bigger comment in these files.
    First I got 404 errors after that - to solve this I followed Knowledgebase article [1639813|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap/support/notes/1639813] but first it didn't help.
    So the before mentioned bigger comments seemed to be a problem (or maybe the special characters in there) because after shortening these comments and restarting SIA and Tomcat the 404 error disappeared and suddenly the above described 500 error occured.
    After that I changed the Tomcat's localhost directory to localhost.old during downtime of Tomcat (as recommended by Lukas Kostrab). localhost was newly created but it didn't help either.
    So last but not least I redeployed tomcat following article [1639813|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap/support/notes/1639813] (wdeploy.bat tomcat6 u2013DAPP=BOE deploy) and started Tomcat and SIA again. I decided to wait a little bit longer with trying to start CMC - maybe 15min - and suddenly it worked.
    So in conclusion I would say:
    - check any changes you made in any config-files (like e.g. web.xml) and shorten them or remove special characters
    - stop SIA and Tomcat
    - rename localhost directory (or copy and remove) so it will be recreated at startup of Tomcat
    - if that doesn't help check tomcat config according to article [1639813|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap/support/notes/1639813] and redeploy tomcat as mentioned in that arcitle and be a little bit patient
    Hope this might help some of you.
    Best wishes

  • NeedOfContexts error message?

    I am struggling to define the details of the issue I am having.  I'll try; maybe I can add more details soon.
    First of all, we were running 4.1 SP01 Patch 2.  On March 7, 2014 I upgraded our environment to 4.1 SP01 Patch 6.  Things seem to be working fine, but there is no way I can run every single report in our system.  So I cannot say for sure if the problem we are having now was happening immediately after the upgrade or not.  I do know it was not happening before the upgrade.
    Just yesterday a user reported getting the following error...
    This report isn't used regularly, so I believe this was probably the first attempt to run it since the upgrade.  This report is built on a UNX universe on top of a SQL Server 2008 R2 database.
    Now for more background information which may or may not be pertinent.  There are 8 other reports that are based on this same universe.  Only one other report is having issues (same errors).  The thing that the two reports having issues have in common is that they both prompt for a context.  That isn't all that surprising given the error messages.  However, Google and SAP xSearch yield exactly zero results.  Well, I am about to change that with this post.
    The user that was getting this issue also has the Rich Desktop Client installed.  She tried to run the problematic report there and got the same error.  I received the same error when running the report through the browser, but not in Rich Desktop Client on my machine.  However, I have not had the opportunity to update the client tools on my machine to 4.1 SP01 Patch 6, but my user that reported the issue has upgraded.  So all of that together makes me suspicious that the upgrade is the issue.
    We cannot go back.  We need a work around.  Perhaps I need to update my client tools and rebuild and redeploy the universe.
    Has anyone else seen this?  Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Noel

    SAP have confirmed the following :
    ADAPT01720958 is fixed for 4.1 SP2.6.  This patch level is expected to
    be released in June.
    This is the release dates of previous SP2 patches so I'm assuming a similar time of 3rd/4th week of month for release we are still approx. 7 weeks away from getting this.

  • Upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1

    I am looking at upgrading from 4.0 sp4 patch 9 to 4.1
    if download and run anything like SBOP BI Platform Servers 4.1 SP02 Patch5 - Update  i get an error that i don't have the correct version of bi platform installed. What do i have to download to update from 4.0 to 4.1.
    should i download and install
    SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform Servers 4.1 SP02 - Update  (just the Update without a patch)
    and then add patches?
    also:
    I am assuming that as long as i don't need the added functionality provided I can skip the steps below correct?
    http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-48364
    the main feature we are looking to add is smart view from  BI4.0 SP05 and i just want to make sure that will be avialable without having to remove the origional install.

    Hi,
    When you are going from 4.0 to 4.1 you need to download the "patch" update to the Support Pack (SP) you are going to in 4.1
    That is to say, the downloads are broken into Full Installs and Patches / updates. Additionally we have Patches to those SPs.
    So if you are going from BI 4.0 SP 04 Patch 4.9 to BI 4.1 SP 02 Patch 2.5 then you have to first install the 4.1 SP02 patch update to 4.0 and then apply Patch 2.5 update to the platform.
    One thing to note - what DB are you currently using? If it's the one provided with the product, this DB has changed between these versions. 4.0 pre SP05 had DB2 on Unix and MSSQL on Windows. As of SP05 we've moved the SAP SQLAnywhere.
    This can cause problems if you "repair" the installation - something support will recommend for a lot of different reasons and when it does this, it will remove the DB2 or MSSQL installation. The repair basically un-installs and re-installs the application. During the install part of the repair it will install SQLAnywhere once again, but the repository will be in your old DB (which isn't installed anymore) and that can give problems.
    My recommendation IF you are running the provided DB is that AFTER you install the upgrade you migrate the data and connection of the CMS Repository from the old CMS repository database, to the new database provided. You can do this with the CCM DB copy functionality. Once you do this you will be on the SQLAnywhere DB and you won't run into the issue with the repair.
    if you are running any OTHER DB - that is to say, you are not using the one installed with the product and you have a separate installation of the DB then you will NOT be affected by this issue. So if you're running DB2, Oracle, SQLAnywhere, HANA, MSSQL, etc from a separate source of installation, you are not going to be affected by running a repair.

  • How to find out the support package level applied in BusinessObjects

    Hello experts,
    I recently installed SBOP 4.0 BI on mi linux server. Can somebody tell me how to know what is the latest SP (support package or Service package??) installed on my Server.
    I know the current SP available is SBOP BI Platform Servers 4.0 SP01 Patch 2, but I don't know whether it is installed or not on my server
    thank you for your help
    regards

    Dear,
    I had a double check and you are right at least as far I can see the Software Inventory toll came only with WIN installation while you are running your BO on Linux.
    What the Software Inventory Tool does it checks files version.
    Now I'm not very smart with Linux but can you check file version in Linux?that could be an option (In WIN i check CMC.DLL)
    Hope it is an useful info.
    Ciao,
    Massimo

  • Error when trying to connect on universe .UNX with Query Panel

    Software :
    Windows 2008 Server Standard Edition 64bits
    Dashboard Design 4.0 SP02 Patch 12
    SBOP BI Platform Edge 4.0 SP02 Patch 12
    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to connect my Dashboard using Dashboard Design 4.0 to an universe with extension .UNX with the query panel.
    I can log on the CMS with an administrator user and I can choose the universe "My_Universe.unx" on the select panel but I try to go to the next step I'm facing of this issue :
    Universe <CUID> not found (XLS 000006)
    The DataSource cannot be generated for the specified dataSource name "<Mydatasource>".
    The integrity of my universe is OK, I use an ODBC 32 bits driver to connect to my dataSource which is a PostGreSQL 8 database.
    I look for a quick answer because this kind of problem is very painful.
    If you want more informations, i'm watching the thread carefully.
    Regards,

    Hi,
    That was already done, that's the first thing I've done but the same error occurs. No matter the CUID of my universe I still get this error.
    I still try to find an answer on forums or sap notes but at the moment, nothing.

  • Can we transport patches to differrent servers ?

    Hi,
       In one of our servers,I have upgraded  patches to highest level.
    In order to avoide repetitive work,is there a way I can transport my patches to all the servers or suggest the easiest way to upgrade it to all servers.
    Regards,
    Rachel
    Edited by: Rachel on Oct 16, 2008 12:01 PM

    Hi rachel,
                It all depends on how your landscape is designed.
               if your DEV, QAS and PRD shares a common TRANSPORT DIRECTORY then it is enough to just transport.
               but if you have a diff transport directories in that case you have to import in all the servers seperately.

  • Crystal Reports for Enterprise connection error to BI 4.0 Platform

    Hi All
    We are trying to connect Crystal Reports for Enterprise to our BI 4.0 Platform, however we are getting the following error: "Failed to establish a connection. The cause was: Cannot connect to SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise at this time. Please try again later".
    System Information:
    - SAP BI Platform 4.0 SP02 patch 6
    - Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit
    - Tomcat 6.0.24
    We have also installed the following client software:
    - SAP BI Platform Client Tools 4.0 SP02
    - SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.0 SP02
    - SAP BI Platform Client Tools 4.0 SP02 Patch 6
    - SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.0 SP02 Patch 6
    Our deployment of the BI Platform is a distributed system where
    - Server 1 hosts the BI Platform Services and
    - Server 2 hosts the web application server
    We have reviewed the following OSS Notes below from SAP first to determine if there is a technical issue :
    - 1598906 - Crystal Reports for Enterprise gives Cannot Connect to SAP Business Objects Enterprise at this time. Please try again later.
    We have adjusted the "dsws.properties" as mentioned in the OSS note 1598906 above to contain the correct CMS and CMS port number (for Server 1).
    - 1602024 - Error - Failed to establish a connection. The cause was - Cannot Connect to SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise at this time.
    We have entered the server context as "/dswsbobje" mentioned in the OSS note 1602024 above in the connection details for CR for Enterprise connections
    - 1636862 - Login for Crystal Reports fail on BO Server Cannot Connect to SAP Business Objects Enterprise at this time.
    We have checked the proxy settings of Internet Explorer and adjusted it to have the following exceptions defined:
    - Server 1.<domain_name>
    - Server 2.<domain.name>
    In the CMC, we also checked in the applications section for the web service option's access URL andchanged it from http://localhost:8080/dswsbobje to http://server2:8080/dswsbobje
    We restarted the tomcat service and tried to access the CR for Enterprise from the BI Launch Pad as well as starting it directly from Windows, howevere we still get the same error.

    Hi Anna-Marie
    I apologise for only responding now back.
    I have managed to logon successfully from Crystal Reports for Enterprise 2011 to the BI 4.0 Platform now, where we can create a report and save the report back to the BI Platform.
    As we have a distributed system, where the BI Platform is on one server (Server1) and the WebAs on another server (Server2). We had to adjust thefollowing settings on the WebAs system.
    1. On the WebAs server (Server 2), in the directory <install drive>:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\dswsbobje\WEB-INF we changed the file: web.xml by entering the default CMS.
        <context-param>
            <param-name>cms.default</param-name>
            <param-value>Server2:6400</param-value>
        </context-param>
    2.Then also in the directory <install drive>:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\dswsbobje\WEB-INF\classes we changed the file: dsws.properties where the section for domain=Server2 to domain=Server1 (example below from the file)
    #default host for CMS and will be replaced during installationdomain=Server1:6400
    3. In internet explorer's proxy exceptions, we set the following:
    server1.<domain>*
    server2.<domain>*
    4. In the local Intranet setting, we also set the site as:
    http://*.<domain>
    Now for my laptop the connection works with no issues, but another developer's does not work - so we are busy investigating what is different between my laptop and his laptop.
    Update:
    We found that a setting inside the Crystal Reports for Enterprise 2011 in the network settings had to also be adjusted.
    5. Use the menu path: Edit > Preferences > Network settings
    6. Switch from "use system proxy configuration (if available)" to "Manual proxy configuration"
    Enter the HTTP proxy address: proxy_server
    Enter the Port: 80 (example)
    Enter the list of servers to bypass: Server1;Server2
    Check the checkbox "Enable proxy authentication"
    Enter a username
    Enter a password
    Click on the OK button.
    7. Afterward change the setting from "Manual proxy configuration" to  "use system proxy configuration (if available)"
    Then Crystal Reports for Enterprise 2011 works correctly.
    What we found was that Crystal Reports for Enterprise 2011 must authenticate against the proxy server first otherwise one has issues.
