Analytics server 1.1

I installed analytics server 1.1. Installation went successfully. When I loaded analytics console community, I get javascript error PTHTTPGetRequest is undefined. Any idea what is creating this problem:
I have win2003 server/portal 5.03 .NET/Sql 2000 SP3a.
thanks

I was facing exactly the same problem since Friday I installed Analytics Server on a pre-production platform.As suggested by Eric, I searched into the log files of Analytics to get something wrong.I found
10 Mar 2006 16:08:27,408 FATAL JSIncludesHandler - com.plumtree.openfoundation.io.XPFileNotFoundException: jscomponent file for jsutil not found or failed to load.Exceptions encountered: - com.plumtree.openfoundation.io.XPFileNotFoundException: Failed to load http://img-rec.portal.groupe-casino.fr/imageserver/plumtree/common/private/js/jsutil/jscomponent.xml. Loader exception: Connection refused: connect
In the analyticsui.log file.
My first understanding was that this javascript file was missing or corrupted. So Analytics Remote Server was encountering exactly the same kind of error as the client browser.But I checked that the file was present on the imageserver.
So I tried the exact HTTP request (http://img-rec.portal.groupe-casino.fr/imageserver/plumtree/common/private/js/jsutil/jscomponent.xml) being logged on the Analytics Remote Server. The request did not finished. In my case, I had a problem to access the imageserver (problem with the VLAN configuration and hardware loadbalancer for imageserver).Solving this, there's no more problem.I encourage you to check the accessibility of the imageserver from the Analytics Remote Server.
I was encouraged to search this way because I had one time the same kind of error with the content server. Content Server was requesting for a javascript file of the imageserver and never got it. This resulting with a blocking state for Content Server. In this case, the javascript file was really missing. But I discovered this time that such remote servers as Content Server also request for the imageserver component.
My understanding in the case of the problem with the PTHTTPGETRequest missing function is the following.The PTHTTPGETRequest function is hosted in the PTXML.js javascript file.This javascript file is located in the E:\sysapp\plumtree\ptimages\imageserver\plumtree\common\private\js\jsutil\XXXXXX directory. The beginning of the directory depends on your installation. XXXXXX refers to the current version (something like 157085)This is the same for other fundamental javascript functions for the client.So the client needs to make the appropriate includes of javascript files according to your installation and the products you're using.The name of the files to be included are determined by the Remote Server (Analytics in our case). To get the right version to include, Analytics has to access the http://img-rec.portal.groupe-casino.fr/imageserver/plumtree/common/private/js/jsutil/jscomponent.xml. This jscomponent.xml file contains the id of the current version (157085 for instance). Because the Analytics Remote Server don't get this file, I guess it doesn't know what is the right version. So it doesn't put any include clause into the HTML answer to the client.But for any reason, the Analytics Server put in the HTML answer the code with the PTHTTPGETRequest.In the HTML page, there's the PTHTTPGETRequest call but no include. This leads to the blocking problem.
I also established this analysis thanks to the name of the component logging the error message: JSIncludesHandler. I understood this component is in charge of defining the right javascript includes for the client.
Let me know if this is not clear __

Analytics not recording usage statistics

I installed G6 and analytics 1.2. Installation went successfull and sync job updates the database with new communities and users. How ever no portal usage statistics are being recorded on the database.
I created new communities and users, ran the sync job, accessed the communties using the new user / community.
Reviewed the analytics database, no entry for user logins. I ran the sync job again and verified. Still no entries. How and when does the portal usage statistics gets recorded on to the system?
thanks

Our Plumtree Portal G6 and analytics server are installed on the same computer. Analytics does not recording usage statistics, it shows "no data to display". Why? What should I do?
I have installed analytics many times, the same results are "no data to display".
For once, I got analytics data for one day, the day I installed analytics. After that day, nothing. The same problem as Michael Capuano.

Analytics 2.5 - Analytics Collector

With what product would you generally install the Analytics Collector? Should we install Analytics Collector on the Analytics Server with Analytics Console?
Below is our current Anlaytics 2.1 configuration for ALUI 6.1 which didn't include the Analytics Collector at the time.
Interaction Analytics Component - Portal Server
Image Service Component - Image Server
Analytics Console - Analytics Server
Analytics Automation Jobs - Automation Server

The Collector can indeed be installed on the same machine. We have the collector installed on the same machine in our Prod environment.

Why do Google Analytics and Sharepoint give difference in numbers?

Hi all,
We are using Google Analytics with our Sharepoint Intranet portal. Just recently we’ve decided to compare the numbers with the real server logs as the numbers from google where a little bit suspicions. After some data analyzing, it looks like the numbers are totally different, and my boss is not believing and numbers from google analytics now. The problem is that we are using google analytics on our website as well (hosted in different place and based on different CMS though), but because of the differences in Sharepoint my boss is questioning the numbers for the web as well! Is it possible that the Sharepoint here is the problem and google analytics is not working properly with it, because I don’t know – the way it is structured, caching servers, etc, not sure. Please, could you explain that a little bit to me if you had similar experience or might know what it works like that.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Google Analytics Tracking Code is executed (behind the scenes) in the client's browser and if that can access the Internet to register the hit on the Google Analytics server, GA should collect the Intranet traffic just fine. I can't see why the GA script will not fire if someone visits that page.
If you have one HTML page with no images or external files called from it like stylesheets or javascript this will be one line on the IIS log each time it is loaded. If you have an HTML page with an external stylesheet and 3 images this will be logged on 5 lines in the log file each time the page is requested because you are requesting 5 files from the web server. Usually your statistics software will filter out all the requests for images, stylesheets and other files and just look at the pages that were loaded because we usually donâ€™t care how many times the logo on each page was loaded.
When you type in a URL to a specific page on a sub site that folder hierarchy and file doesnt really exist in the physical file system. What happens is the request is intercepted by SharePoint/WSS and routed to a DLL that renders the file from another location (a ghosted page) or renders the page from the SQL database (unghosted page). So your IIS logs are going to contain a whole lot of requests for DLLs like owssrv.dll.

XMII Connector for SQL Analytics (OLAP Database Provided by MS SQL)

Hi,
I need to create connector for SQL Analytics server in xMII. I have never created it before.
Please provide me some information on this. i have followed steps given for the regular OLAP connector but no Data is retrived from the server not even the meta data.
Regards,
Prashant Kiran A

Prashant,
The MSOLAP connection properties are defined by the MSOLAP interface, a simple Google search will direct you to the values:
[http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=MSOLAPSOAP|http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=MSOLAPSOAP]
As for the logs, depends on your version...
In 11.5 they are under the admin menu -> System Administration -> General Log
In v12 they are the NetWeaver logs (Filter: Application = xmii)
Hope this helps.

Portal 5.x use of stored procedures in SQL Server

Anyone know if stored procedures are used in the Plumtree, collab, content, studio, or Analytics Server databases for Portal 5.x on SQL Server. We are running Portal 5.0.4 .NET.

In SQL 2005 there is, sort of. This is query lists the last execution
time for all SQL modules in a database:
SELECT object_name(m.object_id), MAX(qs.last_execution_time)
FROM sys.sql_modules m
LEFT JOIN (sys.dm_exec_query_stats qs
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text (qs.sql_handle) st)
ON m.object_id = st.objectid
AND st.dbid = db_id()
GROUP BY object_name(m.object_id)
But there are tons of caveats. The starting point of this query is
the dynamic management view dm_exec_query_stats, and the contents is
per *query plan*. If a stored procedure contains several queries,
there are more than one entry for the procedure in dm_exec_query_stats.

Error while updating account dim

I get the below error while updating the Outline Account Dim.This error occurs only when updating account dim. It does not happen with other dimensions. So it doesn't seem to be the connection being down. If we recycle the analytics server. But we are not able to find out the actual cause for this issue.
Error message:
Cannot build dimension. Analytic Server Error(1042017): Network error: The client or server timed out waiting to receive data using TCP/IP. Check network connections. Increase the NetRetryCount and/or NetDelay values in the ESSBASE.CFG file. Update this file on both client and server. Restart the client and try again
Additional information
Account is defined as dense dimesion with 1800 level 0 members. We are updating this using rules file.
Potential Number of Data Blocks : 27762609853440
Number of Existing Data Blocks : 2625360
Index Cache: 40960
Data cache : 20480
I appreciate any help in resolving this issue

There is probably something in your dim build source file that Essbase doesn't like and isn't giving you a good error message. Did this dim build work in the past and you recently added something to it?
Try excluding certain columns like member properties and data storage just to see if you can get the members to load. Then slowly bring back in the other columns to see if you find the one that has the problem. Similarly try keeping all the columns but just try loading one record and see if it succeeds, this will help you start to narrow down if it is a load rule or source issue. Other option is to create a new load rule, perhaps there is something wrong with the one you are using.
Unfortunately there is no magic bullet here, you just have to work through small samples to try and isolate what the problem is.

How to get a List of Users Currently Logged into the portal

Hi,
Im trying to get the list of all users logged into the portal to do a web service, but I can't find the way to do this, is there any way to find this info thrugh a java class or some object in the RCU/schema/WCP database?
Greetings
Mike

Try the analytics tables. Before you can use them, you need to setup the analytics server and configure it for your application:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e12405/wcadm_analytics.htm#BEIDBHHG
This gives an overview for building reports: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_analytics.htm#BABFDGEG
Login metrics: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_analytics.htm#BABFFHGD
You can use these queries to get the info you want.

I've observed that the OBIEE 11g generates in the query log physical query using the WITH (sub-query factoring) clause to make the generated sql elegantly readable. This is great! Thanks for the developers. However I have some questions about this.
__Background__
Oracle Database' default behaviour is that if you have only one sub-query in the WITH section, it executes it as an in-line view and does not materialize it before the main sql is executed. If you have more than one, by default the database engine materializes all of them in the order of the definition. In some cases this can completely blow up the SGA and make the query never ending. To divert this behaviour you can apply two hints that work both in inline views and in sub-queries as well: /*+ MATERIALIZE */ and /*+ INLINE*/, however Analytics 11g does not seem to have hint capabilities at the logical table level, only at physical table level.
If we go with the current defaults, developers not aware of this feature can bump into serious performance issues for the sake of some syntax candy at the generated sql level, I'm afraid.
__Questions__
* Is it possible to turn the Analytics server not to use WITH but use inline views instead?
* Is there any way to sneak in some hints that would put the /*+ INLINE */ hint to the appropriate place in the generated sub-queries if needed
* Does the Oracle Database have any initialization parameter that can influence this sub-query factoring behavior and divert from the default?

The WITH statement is not added to make the query more elegant, it's added for performance reasons. If your queries take long to run then you may have a design issue. In a typical DWH DB SGA needs to be seriously increased since the queries ran are much larger and complex than on an OLTP DB. In any case you can disable the WITH statement in the Admin Tool by double clicking on your database object on the physical layer and going to the Features tab. The feature is called WITH_CLAUSE_SUPPORTED.

Analysis takes more than 1hr to show results : Obiee 11g (11.1.1.5.0)

Hi,
I have an analysis which taking too long to show the results. I have executed the physical query of this analysis(generated by BI Server) on Database and it take 3 seconds.
Has anyone faced this issue? How to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Raj,
Thanks for your reply.
1. Check the concurrent settings in the connection pool. What OS are you using? Make sure the query threads are not on wait mode.It is only happening to a particular Analysis. All others are running fine.
2. Is the analytics server merging multiple query results from the database? If so, check the memory settings on the analytics server.At the moment only this Analysis is running. There is no problem with the memory.
3. Also, you mentioned the query at the database comes back in 3 seconds. If you ran the query directly from the database server, you might want to check for network issues.There are no network issues...as there is problem only with this Analysis.
Thanks in advance.
