XL Repoter Error

Hi All,
          When i select saved xl report from XL Organizer which is composed by XL Composer the following error it shows as:
           "A Required COM add-in program for XL Reporter has not been loaded & prohibits Microsoft Excel from running"
            can any body tell me the solution.
Thanks,
Suresh Yerra.

Try the following from an SAP note:
Solution
1. Start Microsoft Excel. If you already have the COM Add-ins command on the Tools menu, go to step 7.
2. In the Tools menu, choose Customize.
This opens the Customize window.
3. Choose the Commands tab and select Tools from the Categories pane on the left.
4. In the Command pane on the right, scroll down to the COM Add-ins command.
5. Select the COM Add-ins command, hold down the mouse button, and drag COM Add-ins from the Commands pane over to the Tools menu on the Microsoft Excel men bar. When the Tools menu commands appear, point to where you want the COM Add-ins command to appear on the menu and release the mouse button.
6. To close the Customize window, choose Close.
7. On the Tools menu, choose the new COM Add-ins option.
This opens the COM Add-ins window.
8. In the window, choose Add to open the Add Add-in window.
9.Select the IXXLReporter.dll file located in the Client directory in the XL Reporter program installation area and choose OK.
10. In the COM Add-ins window, select the XL Reporter checkbox and choose OK.

Hi Raj,
If XLR is working fine before this error and suiddden this error start to come , then it may be due to our set up for XLR is corrupt .
So install again , but before install rn pc cleaner which will delete all corupted exe from registery .
and install again XLR.No need to install MS-Excel again .

Hi Keka
I am assuming that responsibility does in fact exist in the database? If not, you will need to create it.
Also, try putting double quotes around the responsibility name.

Error when including hierarchical column in repot

Hi All,
I am getting following error [nQSError: 42039] Columns in BY clause of REPORT totalling function must be in select list. (HY000) when i include the Hierarchical column, Is it something i should set for it.
Thanks,
Sreekanth

Hi,
Problem was not with hierarchy column, but with another column which i used to sort the entire report on (fiscal_priod_number), and fiscal_period_number column was in excluded section in the pivot, once i dragged the column to pivot section and hide it from colum properties hide property report is functioning normally, This is something intresting behaviour, and this happens only with reports which use hierarchy column.
Thanks,
Sreekanth

Repoting Server Error "NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'".

Hello,
We have windows 2008R2 on all systems. Server A is the reporting server, ServerB is the SQL (DB Server) , Server C is another client the we connect via web to reporting server.
From Server A to B getting reports works fine.
From Server C getting reports we get a error "Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'.
We have done everything that needs to be done when there are two hops....
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sql_protocols/archive/2006/08/10/694657.aspx
But still it is not working. What we dont understand is that when we arrive in the morning it works again. We the reboot the reporting server or restart the service...after that we get the error again....Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'.

"Lock table overflow" error msg when trying to change a repot program

hi ABAP experts,
We are getting the following error msg
"Lock table overflow
Choose 'Display object' or 'Cancel'.".
Click the question mark on the same error msg window, then the detailed error msg would like this:
Message no. MC603
Diagnosis
This table overflowed when trying to enter SAP locks in the lock table.
System Response
The locks could not be set.
Procedure
Contact your system administrator. If this error occurs frequently, change the size of the profile parameter 'enque/table_size'. This parameter defines the size of the lock table in KByte.
What would be the reason and how to resolve this problem?
<REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Apr 2, 2008 1:03 PM

Hi,
This could be bcos the lock table is getting overflowed beyond the allotted space. Check if any other program/BAPI is causing continuous creation of locks.
To analyze choose (SM12) Extras Statistics to display the statistics. These are the statistics that have been compiled since the last time the lock server was restarted.
Check the below link for more information on SAP Lock Concept.

u2022     Error Messages
u2022     Reporting
u2022     XL Reporter
After installing XL Reporter, you may encounter these error messages when attempting to run a report from the SBO menu.
The following error messages occur because XL Reporter does not support .Net 2.0. More than likely you have installed .Net 2.0 for some other software and it is interfering with the execution of the XL Reporter program. SAP indicates that if you copy a certain file to the Excel Folder under your program files, it will correct the problem. Basically the file instructs the system to use .Net 1.1 instead of 2.0.
The SAP Service Note 918188 (SAP "S" number required) states that a file needs to be added to the root of the Excel folder. This folder is normally found under: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\
in a folder called something like EXCEL 10 or Excel 11. I am running two versions of Excel so I had to put the following file under the the following directory: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Excel2003\OFFICE11
If you have access to the service site, then access the note mentioned above, and download the file. Otherwise, you will need to create your own.
Modify the file called "excel.exe.config" lines with the following contents:
supportedRuntime version="v1.1.4322"
supportedRuntime version="v1.0.3705"
requiredRuntime version="v1.0.3705"

Error while browsing RSViewer.aspx in SSRS

Hi,
I am getting the below error while browsing the RsViewer.aspx (Or rdl file). I have moved the rdl file from one environment (where I could browse the rdl file) to another environment. In the new environment, I am getting the below error while browing
the rdl file. Both environments are having the same configuration (SQL server 2008 R2 SP3).
"Type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.PlaceHolder' does not have a public property named 'style' "
Thanks in advance,
Krishna

Hi krish456,
According to your description, after you move SSRS report from one server to another, you got the error message when you preview the repot: Type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.PlaceHolder' does not have a public property named 'style'.
As per my understanding, you are using object of System.Web.UI.WebControls.PlaceHolder while a different type was expected, this different type has style properties, which were needed for the report to run properly. It seems that you should be using System.Web.UI.WebControls.Style.
Reference:
PlaceHolder Class
Style Class
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

What do you think of my Bash Script? What about the error checking?

Well what do you think of this Bash script
It works
I gave it some problems (i.e. unpluged the ethernet, messed up the URL's, uninstaled some programs...) to see if would report errors and stop or just keep going... But it did
I just kind of thought up a way to do some error checking with the commands that I know.....
What is a better way to do error checking?
What do you think I should add/Do to this script?

# Shell script to make a USB Tumb Drive for Flashing BIOS on a Lenovo Ideapad Y510.
# This script needs to be owned and run as ROOT with the "sudo command"
# i.e. sudo usbbiosflasher
# If you have anyideas send me a PM on ubuntufourms.org my user name is HunterThomson
# Name/Rename this script usbbiosflasher and save it to the ~/home directory.
# Then run the command- chown root:root usbbiosflasher
# Then run the command- chmod 755 usbbiosflasher
# Then copy the script to the directory /usr/bin.
# Run this comand to do that- sudo cp ~/usbbiosflasher /usr/bin
# You also must have the program "mbr" installed
# You can install the mbr program by running this comand in the shell on Ubuntu
# sudo apt-get install mbr
# In Arch Linux you have to get it from Aur
# First you will need to know a few things...
# You will also need to know the Mount Point i.e. /media/disk and the /dev path i.e. /dev/sdb1.
# You can find these by using the df -T comand.
# Run df -T in the shell. Then plug in the USB Thumb Drive and run the df -T comand agin.
# The new listing is the USB Thumb Dirve.

Personally..... (this is just how I would have written it - if it works, then it's good enough for me though )
I would change this whole block:
verify="n"
while [ "$verify" != y ]
do
printf "Do you have mbr installed... yes or no?"
read AN1
echo ""
printf "You answered... $AN1 I have installed mbr. Is this correct... y or n?"
read verify
done
echo ""
if [ "$AN1" == "no" ]
then
echo "Install mbr now. Then run this script agin"
exit
else
echo "contunuing script"
fi
To this much shorter code:
MBR='/usr/bin/install-mbr' # Or where ever you expect it to be
if [ ! -x $MBR ] ; then
echo "mbr doesn't appear to be installed."
echo "If it is installed, check it's location, make sure it's executable and then make sure the MBR variable in this script is correct"
exit 1
fi
I wouldn't have used the checkXX variables for each stage:
mkdir ~/usbbiosfiles
if [ $? != 0 ] ; then
#failed
echo "Could not \make directory usbbiosfiles"
echo "look above \for \info"
echo "Fix the problem and run this scrip agin"
exit 1
else
echo "Made directory usbbiosfiles... OK"
fi
There is an issue with the way you do your verifications - the user can never get out unless they answer 'y' or hit CTRL+C. Something like this gives them options:
verify="n"
while [ "$verify" != "y" && "$verify" != "n" ]; do
echo "You need to answer 'y'es or 'n'o"
read verify
echo $verify | tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]" # This converts the answer to lowercase so replies entered in upper case will still work
done
if [ $verify != 'y' ] ; then
exit 1
fi
One last thing I try to do in scripts... Declare all your binaries as variables at the start of the program, then execute the binary program by using the variable. For example:
# Binaries
TAR='/bin/tar'
CP='/bin/cp'
CHMOD='/bin/chmod'
# Execute tar and chmod the created file
$TAR cvzf /tmp/tarfile.tar.gz /etc/*.conf
$CHMOD 400 /etc/*.conf
This way, it's easy to change the path in future without having to hunt through the script if the paths change, and it also ensures you're calling the programs using the full paths to make sure you're not executing some strange variant or alias that someone has setup. If I use `chmod` 30 times in a script, and the path changes in the future or on a different system (`chmod` is a bad example cause it's highly unlikely to change, but you know what I mean), then all you need to do is update the variable at the start of the script, and it all works again without having to script-hunt and change it 30 times.

Hyperion IR : Getting out of memory error while fetching data for whole year through web client (wrokspace)

Hi,
While fetching data though IR wen client from workspace for a year(all 12 months) I am getting error as ("Out of Memory .Advice : Close other applications or windows and try again").
If I am trying same through IR studio it does not give any output and show me same repoting front page.
If i am selecting periods till 8 months it is giving the required data in both IR web client and IR studio.
Could you please suggest how can we resolve this issue.
Thanks,
D.N.Rana

Issue Cause :
Sometimes this is due to excessive data which brings the size of the BQY file up around one gigabyte uncompressed in size (for processing may take twice as actual RAM, plus the memory space space for the plugin, and the typical memory limit on a 32-bit system is 2 gigabytes).
Solution :
To avoid excessive BQY size exceeding memory availability:
Ensure that your computer has at least 2Gb of free RAM before he runs IR Studio.
Put a limit to the number of rows that can be pulled down: Right click on Request label of Query section and put a value in Return First xxx Rows (and check the check box).
Do not pull down more than 750 MB of data (remember it may be duplicated while processing).
Place limits or aggregations in Query section (as opposed to Result section) to limit data entering the BQY.

Error report on itunes

i need help everytime i want to access itunes it does not open but comes up a box saying it has encountered a problem and needs to close and asks you to send a error repot to microsoft. i called the microsoft technical support yet they could not help. what should i do?

Itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close
the first thing that i check for when people report getting that message when they try to launch their itunes is a broken or missing QuickTime. (itunes needs a fully functional QT in order to work properly.)
try to open your QuickTime. does it launch properly? or do you get an error message, or some other peculiar behavior, or find that it isn’t on your PC at all?
if you get an error message (or peculiar behavior, or find that it’s missing), the first thing we'll try is a careful standalone QT 7.1 reinstall.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.1 Installers … get the one that doesn’t mention itunes 6
if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
(if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
