Advanced Security manager- Error Initializing the Essbase API.

Hi,
I have installed OLAPUnderground> Advanced Security manager for exporting all the User security. when i try to click connect it throws a connection error "error Initializing the Essbase API, cannot connect." Has any one seen this error before? please let me know if i am missing anything.
We are currently using 11.1.2.3.500.
Thanks,
Sankeerth

Sounds like you have not created the windows environment variable:
ESSBASEPATH
D:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\common\EssbaseRTC\11.1.2.0
That is just an example path update to match your environment

Problem with Advanced Security Manager

Hi
I am using the advanced security manager to migrate security from Essbase 7 server to Essbase 11 server. The users who are externally authenticated on essbase 7 server are under native security mode on the Essbase 11 server after security import.Does the Advanced security manager put all the users (whether they are externally authenticated or under native security mode) in native security mode after import?
Please help

Hello 831221
In version 11 "native" means that the users are stored in OpenLDAP (once Essbase was externalized).
You would only be able to create "external" users if the Shared Services have been connected to an external User Source (e.g. MSAD) prior to
importing the users.

Essbase Advanced Security Manager

Importing/Exporting: I have played with exporting and importing all of the security information using the Essbase Advanced Security Manager tool. (olapunderground.com) Everything exported and imported except for the user passwords. Did I miss something or is that one of the limitations of the tool?

I found a way to work around the problem. I copied the user section out of the export file and added the passwords by manipulating it in Excel. We have an external file with userids and passwords that we maintain. I used the vlookup to find the password. You can paste the user info back in your spreadsheet once you have obtained the passwords. It works well.

AppliedOlap: Advance Security Manager

Hi
I've downloaded Advanced Security Manager for 11.1.2.3 but can't get it to work.
My Essbase version is 11.1.2.3.502.
Getting this error:
Run-time error '48':
File not found: esbapin.DLL
You assistance would be gratefully received.
Cheers

Hi,
I had the same issue on windows 7 x64.
I installed the essbase client and set the environment path variables as below:
ARBORPATH = C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\common\EssbaseRTC\11.1.2.0
EPM_ORACLE_HOME = C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\
ESSBASEPATH = %ARBORPATH%
I had to re-install the Advance security manager and then it was working.
Please let me know if this solved your issue.
Thanks

Advanced Security Manager (Planning)

You can download ASM from Essbase.com. Here is the link..http://dev.hyperion.com/download/utilities/Thanks, Ricky - [email protected]

Advanced Security Manager

I downloaded the Advanced Security Manager from the website and installed on my PC. All functions seem to work fine with the exception of the import and export functions. Whenever I attempt to perform either of these functions, Security Manager closes.Was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this? We're running Essbase 6.1p2 on AIX.Thanks!Jeff Richardson

I have tried this "free" app on one of my test Essbase server. I was scared to use this app on my production server because unexpected things? may be caused by the program to corrupt my essbase.sec. I could not restart my Essbse server and i have to restored my essbase.sec from the tape backup.So anyone who used this app should be very cautious.

Has anyone tried Advanced Security Manager for System 9.0

Hi All,
I am having issues with Advanced Security Manager in system 9.0
I am getting an error "essapin.dll" cannot be found.
has anyone faced similar issue, if yes, how did you get around with that.
thanks and regards.

I got the problem solved.
essapin.dll was with version 6.5 and from essapin.dll was replaced by essapinu.dll. Advanced Security Manager was searching for essapin.dll.
I installed client version of 6.5, which got me essapin.dll.
I am able to export all my filters with ASM now :-)

JNI classes to access the Security Filter features of the C API

Looking for help with managing security filters using the JAPI. Has anyone developed JNI classes to access the Security Filter features of the C API? If so, would you be willing to share your experience and/or code? Time is of the ssence. Thanks in advance for any help.-- Posted for Martin [email protected]@pacbell.net

Are you talking about the Requirements Gateway? It is a separate product from NI that will do what you are looking for. I haven't used it so I am not sure of the API chain to make it work. Take a look and see if that is what you were thinking of.
Hope that this helps,
Bob Young
Sorry, I just re-read your original post and see that you are looking to also use the Requirements Gateway, so you obviously know about it. I don't know what the API changes were that made it work so I am not going to be much help.
Sorry about posting before getting the correct information from the original.

Shouldn't I be getting a com.evermind.sql.OrclCMTConnection created instead of a com.evermind.sql.OrionCMTConnection (per the stack trace)? OJMS is complaining that it doesn't have an OracleCOnnection but how do I tell it to use the "OrclCMTConnection" class instead?

Photoshop CS3 "There was an error initializing the adobe help application..."

So, I just installed CS3 and I went to the photoshop help (F1) and an error pops up that says "There was an error initializing the adobe help application. You may need to reinstall the application and the help component.". I have uninstalled and reinstalled photoshop multiple times, I have also used "WinCS3Clean" to clean it out and the same thing happens. Would anyone have an idea how to fix this?

What are your system language settings, in which language do you install and in which language do you run Photoshop? If there's a mismatch, Help will not launch even if it sits somewhere on the disc. In any case, you can find all help files online at http://livedocs.adobe.com, often with updated info and user comments.

I had to kill the session after 24 hrs plus.Has anybody faced this issue with using ASM1.5 on WIN98 connected to Essbase on HPUX.?? Any suggestions?Regards,Asif

Security Manager Error

Hi! I'm using a security manager in an application. After I install the security manager it is not able to open a server socket. I'm including the code here. What am I doing wrong??? Its a very simple Seccurity manager where I'm just preventing read/writes/deletes on two files.
package com.omega.server;
import java.lang.*;
public class OmegaSecurityManager extends SecurityManager{
public OmegaSecurityManager() {
super();
public void checkRead(String filename) {
String file= filename.trim().toLowerCase();
if (file.endsWith("accesslist.txt")|| file.endsWith("peerservers.txt"))
throw new SecurityException("You are not authorised to Read the file");
super.checkRead(filename);
public void checkWrite(String filename) {
String file= filename.trim().toLowerCase();
if (file.endsWith("accesslist.txt")|| file.endsWith("peerservers.txt"))
throw new SecurityException("You are not authorised to Write to the file");
super.checkWrite(filename);
public void checkDelete(String filename) {
String file= filename.trim().toLowerCase();
if (file.endsWith("accesslist.txt")|| file.endsWith("peerservers.txt"))
throw new SecurityException("You are not authorised to Delete the file");
super.checkDelete(filename);
}

Without doint indepth research I would guess that the default for all permissions is "forbidden". This would mean that you had to enable everything you need.
