Advanced Analysis MS Office: Not able to authenticate

Hi All,
I am using BO 4.0 Analysis, Edition MS Office for reporting. We have version 1.1 installed on the client machine. When I try to launch Analysis Excel on my system, it brings up the BOBJ authentication screen. Even after giving all the details, the OK option is greyed out.
If I select Skip (BOBJ authentication), it brings up the BW system and from here I can work without any problem. Its only the first step where the OK option is greyed out and not able to do anything except to skip that option.
Has anyone come across this issue ? I don't think it is a problem with the version of Business Objects as we are on the latest version.
Please help !
Thanks,
Prasad

Hi Daniel,
The Analysis Office BIP Add-On is quite new. It was recently released with AO 1.4 SP4, so there are some "missing functionalities" that are already on the backlog for future releases. As a workaround, you can use the CMC's Instance Manager to check the executed jobs.
You can refer to the chapter 10 of the "User Guide for AO" for more information and details regarding the scheduling functionality. You can download the User Guide by visiting the link below:

    Hello Mikhail,
    I heard at TechED Las Vegas this past week that 1.2 ramp-up will be starting later this year; the focus of this release we heard was going to be about Prompts.
    I will go back to my notes and try to post a blog if I have enough information.

    We are using WebLogic Server 10.3 Default Authenticator as Authentication Provider.
    I found few change requests related to multi-byte from the link: http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs103/issues/known_resolved.html
    Am I missing some configuration? Has anyone else tried authenticate multibyte username?
    Thanks,
    Anuj

    Can you provide more information on the use case?
    1. Is this using Basic or Form authentication?
    2. If the user logs on from a web-based client, do you get the same failure with Internet Explorer as with other browsers?
    3. On which operating system is the WebLogic AdminServer running?
    With WebLogic Server 10.3, I am able to authenticate with multi-byte (French and Japanese) usernames. (My environment: form auth, Firefox 3.0.5, WLS runs on Linux RHEL 4.0.)

  • Advanced Analysis workbook does not open from infoview - only addin opens

    I have saved an advanced analysis office workbook in bo enterprise and it is subsequently shown in a folder on infoview. But when I want to open the workbook from there excel opens with the aa addin opened but no workbook appears.

  • BOBJ Advanced Analysis for Office patch SP10

    I imported the analysis product into my existing SAP Installation Server.  When I import patch 5 or patch 8, no problem.  But when I import patch 10 and then check server, it says I'm missing 12 files.  If I try to install to a workstation I see the same errors (11 files).  If you just apply patch 10 directly to a workstation without using the installation server, it gives no errors.  It seems that the install script for the server is just wrong.  Some of the files it is looking for are actually missing.  Others are there in the AAO folder, but they're not in the subfolders that it's looking in.  Has anyone else seen this and is there a solution?  Thanks.
    It's not pretty, but here's a paste of the text from the sapsetuperrors xml file.

    Hello Jurg,
    First, try to uninstall what you have and restart the workstation installed. Download the latest version of the Analysis Office, for the 1.0 is the SP12 and for the 1.1 is the SP4. After install it and check how it will work.
    Pay attention if your are trying to install the 1.1. We have 2 files, the 32 and 64 bit.
    Thanks

  • Need workflow for Advanced Analysis for Office for Sizing

    Hi,
    I am in the process of sizing for BO solution .
    Part of that exercise is to find out how much cpu and memory are required for AAO?
    So i thought trace the AAO workflow and understand which BO services/servers it requires.
    If anyone any idea about it workflow, please share.
    Thanks,
    Srikar

    Hi Srikar,
    Analysis for office goes directly to SAP BW / SAP HANA for data retrieval, so there is no need to consider it as part of your sizing exercise.
    There is a note though about client Hardware and Software requirements:
    1466118 - Hardware & Software requirements for Advanced Analysis
    The only exception here is the new scheduling capability of Analysis for Office in the BI Platform, in that case the Adaptive Job Server is used.
    Best regards,
    Victor

  • Advanced Analysis for Office 1.1 - default workbook location

    Is there a registry setting for the default workbook location?  We are deploying Analysis for Office via Citrix and would like all users to use the same default workbook.  By default, that setting is pointing to a location specific to the current user.
    Anyone else deploying this way?
    Thanks.

    This setting is not managed by a registry key but by a file setting. You will find an xml file in the following folder after installing Analysis for Office:
    C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\SAP AG\SAP BusinessObjects Advanced Analysis\Settings\Document
    So to publish a global workbook template you would have to - as part of your rollout - push a global workbook template (excel file) into the users install directory + push an updated version of the xml file from the above file directory into the users Appdata... folder refering to that workbook template file.
    Best regards,

  • Users not able to authenticate via short names

    First it was VPN and now it's happening to my radius server. Users aren't able to authenticate via their short names/usernames. The only way they are able to authenticate to these two services is by using their full name as entered in the LDAP directory. Previously "jsmith" would work, but now you have to enter "John Smith" This is very frustrating. Other services like calendar, mail, addressbook, webdav are unaffected by this issue. Any reccomendations? Thanks

    Hi JFWX5,
    I recently experienced a very similar problem myself, all services was running fine with no problem with authentication except for the calendar service; namely the webcal.
    Throug the Server Admin tool (not the Server app) I checked the log for Open Directory server and then explicitly for Kerberos which was comlaining that it didn't find the database for looking up users trying to authenicate themselfs.
    I found this article in the Apple knowledge base discussing a similiar problem: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2938
    By executing that terminal command Open Directory and Kerboros was up and running for my webcal.
    PS: REALM_NAME should be in all caps and it is the DNS hostname for your server ex. SERVER.EXAMPLE.COM.

  • Gateway server not able to authenticate

    Hello SCOMMers :)
    I have a issue with my SCOM 2012 R2 system that i just can't get my head around.
    We just purchased a brand new SCOM server that I have migrated our environment to, moved the databases, reporting server and finally i got things up and running after some issues with the DB move.
    So i now have 2 SCOM management servers in my environment and four gateway servers, the gateway servers are communicating to the old SCOM server and i want to move them over to the new SCOM server. 
    I ran the powershell commands from this technet article and thought everything was under
    control. But none of the GW servers started communicating with the new SCOM server. 
    I have of course checked the certificates, hosts file, DNS and firewalls, and i reran the MOMCertImport.exe utility. Also checked that the certificate serial number was correctly inserted to the registry after the MOMCertImport.exe was run. (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft
    OperationsManager\3.0\Machine Settings, binary value named ChannelCertificateSerialNumber contains the serial number of the certificate in a reverse order)
    Still i was unable to get the GW server to communicate to the correct management server so i decided i to reinstall the GW server so I could set the name of the new SCOM management server during the GW setup. Before i did the reinstall i ran the Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.GatewayApprovalTool.exe
    with the /Delete parameter, the command ran successfully.
    When i do the install i still cannot get the communication up and running, the GW server gives me the following errors in the eventlog.
    The GW server appears in my Management Servers list but stays in the Not monitored state.
    Event ID: 20057
    Failed to initialize security context for target MSOMHSvc/<ServerFQDN> The error returned is 0x80090303(The specified target is unknown or unreachable). This error can apply to either the Kerberos or the SChannel package.
    Event ID: 20071
    The OpsMgr Connector connected to tmg-app92.mg.local, but the connection was closed immediately without authentication taking place. The most likely cause of this error is a failure to authenticate either this agent or the server . Check the event log on the server and on the agent for events which indicate a failure to authenticate.
    Event ID: 21001
    The OpsMgr Connector could not connect to MSOMHSvc/<ServerFQDN> because mutual authentication failed. Verify the SPN is properly registered on the server and that, if the server is in a separate domain, there is a full-trust relationship between the two domains.
    Event ID: 21016
    OpsMgr was unable to set up a communications channel to <ServerFQDN> and there are no failover hosts. Communication will resume when <ServerFQDN> is available and communication from this computer is allowed.
    I have installed new certificated on both GW and management server, and i did the SCOM GW installation multiple times, but the issue is the same and the eventlog error also are the same.
    Does anyone have any clue to what might be wrong?
    Thanks!
    Bjørn

    Hi,
    After you deleting the gateway with Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.GatewayApprovalTool.exe, the gateway object is only marked as deleted in databases. Therefore, try to use different name for the new installed gateway, so the old parameters will not
    be associated with the new gateway.
    For the communication\certificates problems check these links:

  • Ise 1.1 ActivatedGuest not able to authenticate using radius pap

    Hi,
    I want to create guest accounts using the sponsor portal and use radius to authenticate with these accounts; Afaik this  is supported as from 1.1mr1 (Show Version output      : 1.1.1.268)
    When we create an account with the ActivatedGuest Identity group, in the sponsor portal the account is marked as active.
    Username Status   First Name   Last Name   Email Address
    aazeaze1 ACTIVE azea azeaze
    However in ise, using radius, we receive an access-reject:
    24210  Looking up User in Internal Users IDStore - aazeaze1
    24206  User disabled
    after logging in successfully to the guest portal with this account, the radius request also succeeds.
    Questions
    1) is this scenario supported?
    2) is there anything else that should configured?
    Regards

    Hi,
    FYI it works if you don't use the fromlogin time profile , that's only for LWA/CWA.
    cheers

  • I received this message today when trying to access my library's NetLib account for audiobook downloads: "Sorry, we were not able to authenticate you for access to this resource. Please adjust your Internet Security software to allow referring URLs. "

    When this occurred I was using Firefox 6.0.2 before I just updated to 7.o. I just tried it again with 7.0 and the problem persists.I've never had problems before; I use our library system (www.hclib.org) all the time to access the NetLib audiobook download site (based on my library card number). I've searched everything I can think of on the Norton Security Suite Version: 4.3.0.5 software. My ISP is xfinity.comcast.com
    I have been monkeying around with addons and extensions, could one of them be causing this? I disables almost all the addons but that didn't make a difference either.
    I haven't made any changes to Norton since it was installed (automatic updates).
    I have a Toshiba Satellite, running Vista.
    Thanks!

  • Not able to authenticate android

    Hello Team,
    I was unable to authenticate the Android devices in cisco ise 1.2.1

    what does authentication report say,  can YOU paste the error you see in OPERATIONS => AUTHENTICATIONS => DETAILS

  • Why am I not able to authenticate using apstoken?

    HI, I'm talking programmatically to our Crystal server now successfully, and logging in etc. But, we're running out of licenses. So, I want to "reuse" the apstoken. So, I get a token, and try and pass it in; however, I get a login screen when I do that with an invalid login.  Why is that?
    Here's how I'm getting the token:
    ILogonTokenMgr iLTM = enterpriseManager.getLogonTokenMgr();
                token = iLTM.createLogonToken("",
                        1000,
                        10000);
    Then I pass it in on the argument line, just like the documentation says:
    theURL.append("&apstoken=" + URLEncoder.encode(token);   
    Any ideas why that isn't working and I get a login screen? I noticed the CMS seems to be running on 6400, but we're trying to run our reports across the wire on 6405, is that the issue?

    Not sure what you mean by the apsname - the documentation says to do this:
    http://<servername>:<port>/CrystalReports/viewrpt.cwr?id=152&ap
    stoken=myAPS:A1B2
    That's what I'm doing - yet, it works about 10 times, and then i start getting a "your system is out of licenses, try again later" error. I'm starting to pull my hair out on this one - I know my token is good, because if I do this using the openDocument.jsp method, I do not run out of licenses. We only have ten, and I can sit there and launch 20+ reports.
    So, I'm not sure how I'm supposed to do this with the viewrpt.cwr method.  Here's my ACTUAL url I'm using, with server id's masked of course:
    I get the token by logging onto http://ourserver:6400 and getLogonTokenMgr
    Then, here's the actual url:
    http://ourserver:6405/CrystalReports/viewrpt.cwr?promptex-p_param_id=3101046&promptex-p_output_format=PDF&cmd=EXPORT&EXPORT_FMT=U2FPDF:0&id=7418&sType=wid&sWindow=Same&apstoken=ourserver:6400@7575JNWsa737RBl1GnNJ7574Jebuu7mu93TaDKsn
    If anyone can help, please... tell me what's missing here! Thanks

  • Advanced Analysis BICS and BI Java

    Hi experts , i have this Technical doubt:
    Advanced Analysis for Office extract data for SAP BW by BICS ( BI Consumer Service). So, is necessary for use it the BI Java component installed on SAP BW?
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards.
    A.

    I don't think its required if you connect local through the SAP GUI back to BW.  We have the BICS installed and that required us to move up to 7.02 on both our ABAP and Java(portal) stacks.   If you are running XI 3.1 SP3 for BOE I sugguest you download the Analysis SP 1.0 SP08.  If you have access to the software the install to a client is fast.  Setting up the BICS is something you should do in time but takes an effort on both the ABAP and Java stack system.  Sorry I do not have the answer you need.  Just installed advanced anaylsis 1.0 SP 08.
    When you install AA and try to connect to BW, if you get error it will point you to the log files.  One problem I had was the antivirus software had to be turned off until we made adjustments.  I hope this makes your work a little easier.
    If you do not get a reply other than mine then turn in an OSS message on the SAP marketplace.

Maybe you are looking for
