Web Analysis Essbase connection

Hi all,
I have an already created Web Analysis Essbase connection and I want to change the Essbase server for the connection. If I go to Workspace->Explore, then Tools->Manage Database Connections, I can only see the Reporting connections in order to edit them. How do I edit the properties of Web Analysis connections?
Thank you!

You can edit them through WA studio, depends on where you saved the db connections, usually in the databases folder, right click the connection and edit.
Cheers

  • Regarding web analysis database connections

    Hi All,
    I have couple of web analysis reports and the issue is i have copied this web analysis server to another server
    where i have the same application. Now iam trying to append those database connection properties of the file to
    point to the new server.
    I have altered by selecting the user>database>select database>rightclick>edit>changed properties
    But when i open the report it popping out with my old server details.
    Does any one have idea about how to change database properties for a report.
    Thanks,
    Ram

    Hi Manoj,
    I have created a DSN but how can i point the report to that DSN and run the same report as of my report running on my old server.
    Thanks,
    Ram

  • Web Analysis - database connection

    <p>Is it possible to see the data base connection a web analysisdocument is using.</p><p> </p><p>I can see the data base it connects to but not the data baseconnection used</p><p> </p><p>Web analysis 9.2</p><p> </p><p>thanks</p>

    Try exporting the Web Analyzer document then open the file in a text editor. It's basically a text document. Then do a search for connection files you maybe using.

  • Using Web Analysis to connect to FDM SQL tables

    Hi,
    I want to know if someone ever use Web Analysis to do reporting ion FDM? Instad of building report in FDM, we I would like to use Web Analysis.
    Thanks

    There really aren't restrictions on the method you expose as a web service. You can make JDBC calls into a database or call an EJB, etc.

  • Bypass the error messages while opening the Web Analysis 9.3.1 Report

    I am using WA 9.3.1 to create a few reports. The login users will have some essbase meta-read security filters to restrict the access into certain regions and entities.
    For example:
    user a has the meta-read and read access of @idescendants (east);
    user b has the meta-read and read access of @idescendants (west);
    user c has all the accesses
    However, in the first start-up page (Web Analysis 9.3.1 dashboard), I have a dashboard which contains all the regions access. When user a login, he shall only see his own dashboard (speedometers, etc.).
    Currently the user login will get some error messages (such as "loading document produce error", etc). I wonder whether we can set the message level in Web Analysis so that there is no such error message while the user is opening the reports.
    Thanks

    Karen,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I have checked my Web Analysis report, and I still have the error message of "Error Occur while opening document. Document ID = {0}" while using the some user id to login.
    In my Web Analysis database connection preference, my setting is "user the user id and password". I have verified this (when I use "user a" to login, and in essbase connection, i can see the session with "user a").
    In the WA report, however, I use the multiple-level combo box, so that it can give me different levels of entities, for example, the top level is all regions, the 2nd level is east/west/south/ ec, and the next level is cities, and so on. And if "user a" login, he will be able to see the all regions and east, and then east cities (of course, if he select all regions, there will be no data available).
    Do you think this multiple level combo boxes can be the cause of this error message?
    Thanks a lot

    Which one is your OS Sun Solaris, IBM AIX , HP- Unix?
    LIBPATH is an OS environment variable which need to be set properly. Library path varies according to OS..
    like in IBM AIX it is LIBPATH and in Solaris LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
    Set LIBPATH, ARBORPATH, PATH os environment variables correctly.
    Hope this helps.

  • Not Possible Create Database Connection to Essbase From Web Analysis Studio

    Hello
    It is not possible to create a database connection to Essbase cluster from Web Analysis (WA) Studio. The following error message is displayed:
    "Unable to retrieve the list of available databases"
    And the detail:
    [1033] Native: 1003 Error: Create connection failed [For input string:
    [ApsServer=, OlapServer=[HOST];]]
    Foundation Services, Agent, Financial Reporting and Web Analysis are enabled.
    As additional information from EAS can seamlessly connect to Essbase server.
    The EPM version is 11.1.2.2
    Please help. thanks
    regards
    Rodrigo

    Hi ,
    For creating a WebAnalysis database connection, please make sure you do the following :
    1. Verify if you have Essbase client installed on the WebAnalysis server.
    2. Check if the path of adm drivers are mentioned in the system environment variable -> PATH entries.
    3. Try giving the Essbase server name instead of the cluster name when attempting to create a connection.
    4. The error 1003 means it doesnt seem to create a connection with the server and while attempting it fails.
    Make sure you have all the parameters mentioned correctly in the server details.
    To get detailed information on what is causing the problem, make sure you stop the WebAnalysis service and start it from console .

  • Could not connect to the OLAP server web analysis hyperion

    I created a document report in Web Analysis with an administrator user then I created a user in the shared services console and granted him access to the report, but entering with this user I can access the report, but receive the following error message: Could not connect to the OLAP server web analysis hyperion.

    Is the user having correct provisioning in Essbase? Which version? (older versions, you'll have to synchronize Essbase with HSS)

  • New Essbase member in Web Analysis

    Hello Gurus,
    I have added a new year "2021" in my Essbase hierarchy.
    Now I am trying to have this 2021 in my Web Analysis document, however, I do not see 2021 when I try to add that year in my column.
    In terms of Financial Reports the member is already there but I do not see it in Web Analysis, Do I need to do anything extra for it to be visible in WA?
    Thanks

    Are you connecting to the same database? Can you try creating a new report and see whether it works?

  • Web Analysis does not drill down (Essbase datasource)

    Hi!
    I have a web analysis document which does not drill down to next level when double clicking on a parent level. In my report I have children of Area dimension selected individually and their parent on rows ( this means I have not used selection where I select only top member and its children; this is because one of the children should not be in the report). This is not an security issue, because I have admin rights to the essbase cube.
    Usually when double-clicking on a member in report it should drill down to next level. This report does not drill down.
    The strange thing is that if I select "Keep Only" for the top member of that dimension and then double-click it then drills down nicely???
    When using a excel add-in and retrieving data there the same kind of report drills down without problems. Any ideas why this drill down does not work properly in Workspace (and also in Web Analysis Stuidio) ?
    kind regards,
    user637777

    Hi!
    I checked out the dimension in question. It seems to have implied shares (parent having only one child). There seems to be implied shares in almost all child hierarchies which might explain the web analysis behaviour.
    We are using V11. The application is an aggregate storage application.

  • Change the data source connection of existing reports in web analysis

    You can edit the Database connection from Web Analysis. Perform the below tasks to edit the database connection..
    1) Login to Web Analysis
    2) Select the Database Connection which needs to be modified.
    3) Right Click then Edit..

  • Connecting to SQLserver 2005 via Web Analysis using a JDBC driver

    We are currently working on a web analysis suite and have been trying to create a SQL spreadsheet data object.
    After downloading and supposedly installing the sqljdbc.jar driver, we are having problems getting a connection to MS SQL server 2005.
    We set the classpath to this driver in the operating system (Windows server 2003) but are unsure exactly how to set this classpath in Tomcat 5.0.28 as recommended by the help file. We have tried editing the catalina.bat and catalina.50.bat in the \Hyperion\common\appServers\Tomcat\5.0.28\bin folder to point to sqljdbc.jar, but to no avail.
    So....does anyone have any experience on setting up the JDBC driver for MSSQLServer 2005 and making a connection in Web Analysis. Could you please give a step by step account of how this is done?

    Hi,
    In the past I have used two methods either updating the registry for the web application or by placing the jar file in the following directory
    \Hyperion\deployments\Tomcat5\WebAnalysis\webapps\WebAnalysis\WEB-INF\lib
    If you do place it in that directory you will need to restart the web analysis web server.
    Then in web analysis studio go to file > new > database connection >Relational
    Select Microsoft SQL Server
    JDBC Driver
    com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
    Connection string
    jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://<servername>:1433;DatabaseName=<dbname>;SelectMethod=cursor
    Enter username/password
    There is always the Merant SQL server connection that can be used as well.

  • Mysql connectivity through web analysis

    Hi ,
    I hv added "mysql-connector-java-5.1.6-bin" @
    C:\Hyperion\deployments\Tomcat5\WebAnalysis\webapps\WebAnalysis\WEB-INF\lib
    bt I am nt getting any mysql driver option in the web analysis, I wanna work with the mysql data please throw some light .
    thanks
    kishore

    Hi kishore,
    You can not use the Mysql in webanalysis as a datasource. WebAnalysis supports only following datasources-
    1)Relational db(Oracle, SQL server, DB2,Teradata)
    2) Essbase/Planning
    3) HFM
    4) SSAS (Micrsosoft product)
    5) SAP BW
    Hope it will help you.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Failed to connect SQL Server from Web Analysis

    Hi,
    I am not able to connect RDBMS-SQL Server 2000 SP3 from Web Analysis 9.3. I have installed JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000 also. Also defined CLASSPATH environmental variable for MSSQLSERVER.jar file. I am creating JDBC drive as: -
    Driver Type: Microsoft SQL Server
    Database Connection String:
    jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://CNOIA258:1433;DatabaseName=biplus;SelectMethod=cursor
    JDBC User: biplus
    JDBC: biplus
    I am getting error "Getting Connection Failed"
    Please suggest any solution to resolve this issue.
    Regards.
    Atul K

    Hi Atul
    I think you need to amend the standard strings as follows:
    hyperion.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
    jdbc:hyperion:sqlserver://CNOIA258:1433;DatabaseName=biplus;SelectMethod=cursor
    This has always worked for me, hope this helps

  • Error connecting to web analysis report from workspace

    Hi,
    There are a number of web analysis reports. There is a link to one in a planning task list. However, when the report is opened an error appears saying
    Required application context analyzer is not available. Please contact your administrator
    The report opens is web analysis. I tried other reports from within workspace by browsing to them from within the folder structure and got the error for all of them.
    Has anyone seen this before?
    Thanks,
    Nathan

    A) restart your services in correct order
    B) be sure that the analyzer.properties (baseurl) is correct and can be reached from the workspace server.
    C) wrong SSL config and certificates produce sometimes suprisingly strange error messages.
