2007 B Upgrade - Cannot connect to SBO-COMMON db

Hi,
Trying to upgrade SBO 2005B PL43 to SBO 2007B PL07.
The SBO -Common database exist
The SQL Express <TCP and Pipes> enable
In the SBO Common Upgrade, when I enter the correct server name, user, password and press OK, i get the follow error:
"The Connection to the specified server has failed"
"Check your password and the that server exist on the network"
Any idea?
Tanks

Hi Marcio
In 2007 you must specify the server type as SQL or SQL_2005 (Type 1 or Type 4). There are also limitations in 2007 with respect to SQL Express. The best is to check the supported databases on the portal or check with your local SAP office.
Kind regards

2007A Install - Cannot connect to SBO-COMMON db

Towards the end of the Server install, after building the databases, a message displays that the Install is testing the connection to the SBO-COMMON db. It then tells me that it is unable to connect and displays the MSSQL log on screen for me to enter the sa password. When I enter the correct password and press ok I get the "Cannot Connect" message again.
Before running the Install I have made sure that the required MSSQL services are running (MSSQL, Agent and Browser)

Hello Tony,
Please take a look at SAP Note 979081, it may be related.
Hope it helps,

Add-On connection for Journal Entry - Failed to Connect to SBO Common

We have a customer (SAPBO 2005A SP01 PL29) with some specific requirements that required an add-on running in the background to monitor the addition of Goods Receipt PO's to the system. When the GRPO is successfully added, the Add-On will (behind the scenes) create an appropriate Journal Entry through the SAP DI. One of the issues that we encountered during the development of this functionality was that when it was tested by users, they weren't authorized to access the Financials module or the Journal Entry screen. What we ended up doing was creating a secondary connection (vCompany) in the DL pulling the information from the encrypted user information from SAP the Add-On used to connect, but utilizing a management level user ID and password. Once that connection has been made, the Journal Entry is added through the DI and that secondary connection is disconnected.
The problem that we're encountering is this. When the users are logged into SAP Client with an regular user, and the GRPO adds, the secondary connection fails and returns a message of "Failed to Connect to SBO-Common". However, if the user is logged into SAP as an adminitrative level user and the GRPO is added, the secondary connection is successful and the Journal Entry is created. The secondary connection is strictly used for the JE. Here's the code (VS.Net 2005) for the secondary connection:
vCompany = New SAPbobsCOM.Company
vCompany.UseTrusted = True
vCompany.language = SAPbobsCOM.BoSuppLangs.ln_English
vCompany.CompanyDB = oCompany.CompanyDB
vCompany.UserName = "XXXXX"
vCompany.Password = "YYYYY"
vCompany.Server = oCompany.Server
vCompany.DbServerType = SAPbobsCOM.BoDataServerTypes.dst_MSSQL2005
lRetConnect = vCompany.Connect()
Where "XXXXX" would be the appropriate management level SAP User Name and "YYYYY" would be that users password.
Has anyone else had this kind of issue where you needed a secondary connection with management level access behind the scenes to accomplish something in SAP and had problems getting it to connect? Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Dennis,
what you can try is to make a untrusted connection
oCompany.UseTrusted = False
and set the DBUser and Pwd
oCompany.DbUserName = "sa"
oCompany.DbPassword = "insertpwd"

What shall I do?

Hello Thomas,
Make sure that all components of SAP have the same Patch Level to avoid any conflict in the future. If you use SBO2005 PL02, then all the DI API, DI Server etc must also be in PL02. Hope this helps...

Upgrade-Wizzard 8.8, SBO-COMMON und Database nicht selektierbar

Hallo,
kennt jemand das Phänomen, dass beim Upgrade Wizzard von 8.8 (hier PL18, war aber schon bei früheren Patches so) nur die lokal installierten Programme (DI-API, Servertools, ...) upzudaten waren - nicht aber die SBO-COMMON, die HELP usw. Die "Häkchen" sind ausgegraut.
Das ganze passiert auf meinem Laptop, nicht auf einer Kundeninstallation. Ist trotzdem sehr ärgerlich, und bei jedem Update dasselbe.
Problemlösungsversuche: Firewall, UAC, SQL-User, Admin-Rechte.
Vielen Dank für jeden Tipp.
Andreas

Was Vista macht kann ich dir nicht sagen. Es verhält sich in der Regel so, dass der Installer als Prozess eines bestimmten Users ausgeführt wird. Wenn dieser Prozess nun versucht auf einen Anderen zuzugreifen, dieser aber ein Prozess eines Users mit höheren Recht ist, schlägt die Installation fehl oder der Zugriff auf bestimmte Resourcen wird verweigert.
Es ist nur eine Vermutung - und wie gesagt Vista habe ich nie wirklich genutzt - aber versuch dich mal als richtiger Administrator einzuloggen und dann die Installation zu starten. Es scheint mir, so jedenfalls uner Win7 mit UAC, noch einen Unterschied zu geben, zwischen "ausführen als Administrator" und wirklichen Admin User.

After OS4 upgrade cannot connect to iTunes Store???

Hey guys,
I upgraded my 3GS software to OS4 and since then I am unable to connect to the itunes store from my phone. I can connect to the internet using Safari and i can access the store when I connect my phone to my laptop. But when i try to connect to itunes store just from my phone through wireless, it just says "Cannot connect to itunes store".
My internet connection/Wifi is super, there are no problems there.
Pls help me out with this glitch. Its annoying!
Thanks a ton!

I think this might have something to do with using 2 iPhones on 1 computer. My boyfriend and I each bought an iPhone 4 yesterday - mine works fine (I was the first to connect to iTunes). My boyfriend connected his to iTunes after me, then when he disconnected from the computer and tried to access the iTunes store through wifi it came up with the "cannot connect to iTunes store" message on his iPhone.
I created a new user on our laptop and downloaded iTunes again. I connected my boyfriend's iPhone and restored to factory settings and this seemed to do the trick!!!! Hope this helps!

You are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

After upgrade cannot connect to router- Cisco Connect advises "unsupported operating system"

With the upgrade I am unable to connect to my Linksys E1200 Router.

When you try to login at http://192.168.1.1, what happens? What do you see on your browser? Does it say invalid password, or does it not give you a login prompt at all? And I'm not sure if you're problem is the wireless computer or the wired one...you say you have one wired computer, then you're saying that you use the same wire with the other one, and use the term "cables" so it's confusing what you're trying to do. Do you have two wired computers, one working on the internet and the other not? Or ???
Also, you can reset the router password to factory defaults by using the reset button on the back (press it for about 30 seconds, then release). This will also set all your configuration back to factory defaults, too, so you'll have to re-enter all your settings, but it is possible that you changed the password somewhere along the way and forgot what it is.

Hi,
Two "Maybe"'s:
1. DbPassword = "sa"; - please verify this info is correct in your DB.
2. CompanyDB="SBODemo_US"; - please note that it might be SBODemoUS (without the "_" char).

After upgrading, cannot connect to the internet an...

I start to use BT Total Broadband Option 1 last monday and until last Thursday I got notified by email that the usage had been 7GB already after just a few days (out of the 10GB limit under option 1). Then I called on Saturday to upgrade the plan to option 2 which allows 40GB limit.
On Sunday midnight the original plan was cancelled. There were no internet from then on. Then on Monday night I got a text saying the changes requested to my service are now completed. However I failed to connect to the Broadband at home. The Home Hub's broadband signal keeps red in colour.
I have called on Tuesday night to ask for help. They will be contacting me again on Friday night after checks about the line.
May I ask if anyone have come across this problem ?? Are there any ways to get connected again ? because obviously the wireless network is there but it's just that I couldn't get connected to it. I suspect it's because the change of plan makes the login details different ?? It says that on http://bthomehub.home/ => Settings/Internet I should be able to connect without typing password if I'm an existing customer. However that doesn't work. I tried thousand times and am already very frustrated.
Hope someone can help me. Thanks a lot !

Hi Vinc_bath,
Thanks for the posts and welcome to the forum.
I am sorry for the problem you are facing. DS is correct, changing your BT broadband options will not disconnect your service altogether. I will need to look into this for you to see what is going on.
Can you please drop me an email to [email protected], include your BT account details and the link to this thread.
Cheers

Sbo common error - test connection

Hello, Im trying to connect the B1DI in SBO common, but I can't:
This error appears:
XCE001 Nested exception: java.rmi.RemoteException: com.sap.b1i.xcellerator.XcelleratorException: XCE001 Nested exception: java.net.MalformedURLException: invalid authority: rmi://license_server_name:2099/DiaAdapterProxy_XXX
If I write the IP address, is another error: -8012... I checked the note "Troubleshooting on B1ic Version 8.81" but the patch level are correct...
Can somebody help me??
Thank you!
Sorry for my english!!
Paulina

Hi Paulina,
You cannot successfully connect to SBO-Common via the B1DI test connection since its actually not like a normal Business One database. Therefore you should only test connections to normal B1 databases. If they do not exists in the SLD then you can create one.
Cheers,
Lisa

Can anyone help?

Cannot connect to database using the Upgrade Simulation Tool

I have installed the Upgrade Simulation Tool on my system and when I try to run the tool my system works in the for awhile in the background and creates the _Simulation mdf and ldf files and a .bck file. After 3 or 4 minutes it gives me an error "Cannot connect to the database".
It looks to me like it is connecting to the database because it is creating the files in the SQL Data folder. I have tried to run it on several databases and get the same results.
Thank you, Jeff

Hi,
You may not have the ability to upgrade it directly.
He does have the ability.
When downloading Pl 42, it is cleary marked as "Upgrader", which means it can be used for upgrade (in this case simulation) from a lower version than 2007A
Patchlevel which are marked as "patch" are suitable only for updating the PL within the very same version of SAP Business One.
This tool should run under 2007 system I believe.
The Upgrade Simulation tool was designed in orderto test an upgrade, therefore it can run at a machine where 2005 version is installed. Technically speaking it creates a second SBO-common, which can be used only with the special designed (read only) client of the tool.
Jeff, you should check access rights of your SQL Data folder.Maybe grant user "Everyone" modifying rights to that folder. In addition you could try to detach a DB and move the related *.mdf and *.ldf to another folder where no access denied rights were applied.
If using MSSQL 2005 create via ODBC a Native Client connection to the Server, although you might just working locally only.
Regards
Mario
