Answer Request and Presentation Catalog

Hi,
Is it possible to get the list of answer requests associated with a specific presentation catalog. There are lots of request created in the shared folder (based on different presentation catalog) for dashboards and common queries.
If it is possible to get the list of requests associated with a specific presentation catalog, it will be helpful to understand the capability of the data mart (the kind of information that we can get from a presentation catalog).
Regards
Vinodh.

Yes. Using Catalog Manager tool.
Open Catalog->Tools->Create Catalog Report
Select required columns and save it as .csv file
Pls mark correct or helpful if helps

Web Catalog Permissions - Everyone and Presentation Server Administrators

When you copy/paste new objects from one Web Catalog to another the default permissions are granted with Everyone having Read access and Presentation Server Administrators having Full Controll. Is there any setting/configuration to change that would allow this to only grant the Full Access to Presentation Server Administrators and not the Read to Everyone. Would appreciate any input, thanks.

Would appreciate any input, thanks.I don't think this is correct. What I see happening is that when you paste a folder it will get the permissions of the parent folder by default. So your parent folder must have Everyone = Read access and Presentation Server Administrators = Full Controll. So there isn't any default permissions, you just get whatever the parent folder has.

Manage presentation catalog and permission

Hi all,
I need help: in Oracle BI I can't use permission in 'Manage Presentation Catalog Groups and Users'.
This is because I create a new dashboard (on Explorer) and a new group and user(in rpd file).
Then I try to relate this things but it's wrong..
And now in 'Manage Presentation Catalog Groups and Users' I coundn't add users to groups.
Which is the file where Oracle BI save the permission?
What I can do?
Thanks

Empty Presentation Catalog's Model in Answers

Hi All,
I have just installed Windows Server 2003 and installed OBIEE after.
I can open the paint.rpd file using the Administration tool.
I can see the model in the presentation layer.
However I cannot see the model in the presentation catalog in Answers.
Your help is much appreciated.
Regards,
MA.

Dear wildmight,
Thank you so much for your answer.
But I just did solve the problem. It turned out that Internet Explorer in Windows Server 2003 has something called enhanced security which caused the problem.
I figured that out after trying Firefox and the problem was gone.
So the answer is to use Firefox or remove the Internet Explorer Enhanced Security from Windows components
Many Thanks and Regards,
MA.

Error outside of Presentation Catalog occurred. Error Codes: EUMOQYH6. Do anybody know why I'm getting this error on my dashboard?
This is the another error i'm seeing:

Copy Businss Model and Presentation Layer Objects

Hi,
We have an environment whereby there is a Development DB and a Production DB.
I have built a model around the dev. DB and created answers requests. How Do I copy the model within the same repository and rename it and copy the answers requests to a different folder and use them as "Production" Answers Requests.
The rename wizard provided by Oracle only helps to Rename the Presentation Catalog.
Thx,
rkingmdu

It seems you are using one OBIEE server to host your Dev and Prod environments. That's certainly not a good idea (as Stijn says) and will not work. Answers requests are linked to a Subject Area and specific fields on that subject area. A subject area is basically a folder in your Presentation layer of the RPD. So a SA is always linked to an RPD. You are not goind to be able to achieve complete separation with a single OBIEE server. And no, it's not correct that a BI server can connect to one RPD, you can have a BI Server connecting to many RPDs. While is not supported to have multiple Presentation Services in the same server, you can have more Presentation Services on other servers that use other RPDs.

Purge Concurrent Request and/or Manager Data program:

Hi Friends,
I am purging all my test report output logs using the above program, but the table
FND_CONC_PP_ACTIONS is not being deleted;
SQL> select count (*) from FND_CONC_PP_ACTIONS;
COUNT(*)
9470
FND_CONC_PP_ACTIONS
Stores the post request processing actions(e.g., print, notify) for each
submitted request. There's a concurrent_request_id here for each request_id
in the FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS.
How can i forced delete the tables? since im still on the testing phase its OK if i zero out
all of it.
Thanks a lot

or I want it zero (0) to delete all You cannot set it to zero (0). The Age parameter should be between (1) and (9999999).
Did I mess it up? when I manually deleted the contents of
I thought I can delete this logs manually because they are on filesystem.
I thought only the database tables are needed to be cared for. Even though you should not bother yourself and delete the files manually under $APPLOG and $APPLOUT directories since the concurrent request will do the job for you, it is safe to delete it manually. The only impact you would have here is, you would not be able to access the log/out files of the concurrent requests (if the requests still presented in the tables and you can see it from the application).
Did you try to use the "Count" parameter instead of the "Age"? The "Count" parameter indicates the number of (most recent) records for which you want to save concurrent request history, log file, and report output files.

Retrieving data from an ArrayList and presenting them in a JSP

Dear Fellow Java Developers:
I am developing a catalogue site that would give the user the option of viewing items on a JSP page. The thing is, a user may request to view a certain item of which there are several varieties, for example "shirts". There may be 20 different varieties, and the catalogue page would present the 20 different shirts on the page. However, I want to give the user the option of either viewing all the shirts on a single page, or view a certain number at a time, and view the other shirts on a second or third JSP page.
See the following link as an example:
http://www.eddiebauer.com/eb/cat_default.asp?nv=2|21472|9&tid=&c=&sc=&cm_cg=&lp=n2f
I am able to retrieve the data from the database, and present all of them on a JSP, however I am not sure how to implement the functionality so that they can be viewed a certain number at a time. So if I want to present say 12 items on a page and the database resultset brings back 30 items, I should be able to present the first 12 items on page1, the next 12 items on page2, and the remaining 6 items on page3. How would I do this? Below is my scriplet code that I use to retrieve information from the ArrayList that I retrieve from my database and present them in their entirety on a single JSP page:
<table>
<tr>
<%String product=request.getParameter("item");
ArrayList list=aBean.getCatalogueData(product);
int j=0, n=2;
for(Iterator i=list.iterator(); i.hasNext(); j++){
if(j>n){
out.print("</tr><tr>");
j=0;
Integer id=(Integer)i.next();
String name=(String)i.next();
String productURL=(String)i.next();
out.print("a bunch of html with the above variables embedded inside")
%>
</tr>
</table>
where aBean is an instace of a JavaBean that retrieves the data from the Database.
I have two ideas, because each iteration of the for loop represents one row from the database, I was thinking of introducing another int variable k that would be used to count all the iterations in the for loop, thus knowing the exact number. Once we had that value, we would then be able to determine if it was greater than or less than or equal to the maximum number of items we wanted to present on the JSP page( in this case 12). Once we had that value would then pass that value along to the next page and the for loop in each subsequent JSP page would continue from where the previous JSP page left off. The other option, would be to create a new ArrayList for each JSP page, where each JSP page would have an ArrayList that held all the items that it would present and that was it. Which approach is best? And more importantly, how would I implement it?
Just wondering.
Thanks in advance to all that reply.
Sincerely;
Fayyaz

-You said to pass two parameters in the request,
"start", and "count". The initial values for "start"
would be zero, and the inital value for "count" would
be the number of rows in the resultSet from the
database, correct?Correct.
-I am a little fuzzy about the following block of code
you gave:
//Set start and count for next page
start += count; // If less than count left in array, send the number left to next next page
count = ((start*3)+(count*3) < list.size()) ? (count) : ((list.size() - (start*3))/3)
Could you explain the above block of code a little
further please?Okay, first, I was using the ternary operators (boolean) ? val_if_true : val_if_false;
This works like an if() else ; statement, where the expression before the ? represents the condition of the if statement, the result of the expression directly after the ? is returned if the condition is true, and the expression after the : is returned if the condition is false. These two statments below, one using the ternary ? : operators, and the other an if/else, do the same thing:
count = ((start*3)+(count*3) < list.size()) ? (count) : ((list.size() - (start*3))/3);
if ((start*3)+(count*3) < list.size()) count = count;
else count = ((list.size() - (start*3))/3);Now, why all the multiplying by 3s? Because you store three values in your list for each product, 1) the product ID, 2) the product Name, and 3) the product URL. So to look at the third item, we need to be looking at the 9th,10th, and 11th values in the list.
So I want to avoid an ArrayIndexOutOfBounds error from occuring if I try to access the List by an index greater than the size of the list. Since I am working with product numbers, and not the number of items stored in the list, I need to multiply by three, both the start and count, to make sure their sum does not exceed the value stored in the list. I test this with ((start*3)+(count*3) < list.size()) ?. It could have been done like: ((start + count) * 3 < list.size()) ?.
So if this is true, the next page can begin looking through the list at the correct start position and find the number of items we want to display without overstepping the end of the list. So we can leave count the way it is.
If this is false, then we want to change count so we will only traverse the number of products that are left in the list. To do this, we subtract where the next page is going to start looking in the list (start*3) from the total size of the list, and devide that by 3, to get the number of products left (which will be less then count. To do this, I used: ((list.size() - (start*3))/3), but I could have used: ((list.size()/3) - start).
Does this explain it enough? I don't think I used the best math in the original post, and the line might be better written as:
count = ((size + count)*3 < list.size()) ? (count) : ((list.size()/3) - start);All this math would be unnecessary if you made a ProductBean that stored the three values in it.
>
- You have the following code snippet:
//Get the string to display this same JSP, but with new start and count
String nextDisplayURL = encodeRedirectURL("thispage.jsp?start=" + start + "&count=" + count + "&item=" + product);
%>
<a href="<%=nextDisplayURL%>">Next Page</a>
How would you do a previous page URL? Also, I need to
place the "previous", "next" and the different page
number values at the top of the JSP page, as in the
following url:
http://www.eddiebauer.com/eb/cat_default.asp?nv=2|21472
9&tid=&c=&sc=&cm_cg=&lp=n2f
How do I do this? I figure this might be a problem
since I am processing the code in the middle of the
page, and then I need to have these variables right at
the top. Any suggestions?One way is to make new variable names, 'nextStart', 'previousStart', 'nextCount', 'previousCount'.
Calculate these at the top, based on start and count, but leave the ints you use for start and count unchanged. You may want to store the count in the session rather than pass it along, if this is the case. Then you just worry about the start, or page number (start would be (page number - 1) * count. This would be better because the count for the last page will be less than the count on other pages, If we put the count in session we will remember that for previous pages...
I think with the details I provided in this and previous post, you should be able to write the necessary code.

Thanks once again for all of your help, I really do
appreciate the time and effort.
Take care.

Changing computers but not external hard drive, how to modify and delete catalogs?

Moving my relatively new 2012 Mac Mini from office back home that has LR4 and PS CS6 installed. It has a small LR catalog that I want to delete completely.
Presently at home, I use my MacBook Pro which I want to take "offline" in regards to photo editing, which also has LR4 and PS installed and is attached to an external drive with all my pictures that I want to have recognized by the Mac Mini LR4.
1) Can I just delete (from the Mac Mini) the Lightroom folder which contains the Backups folder, and the following files: LR4 Catalog Previews.Irdata, LR 4 Catalog.Ircat, LR4 Catalog Ircat-journal, and LR4 Catalog.Ircat.lock?
2) How do I create a new LR4 catalog on the Mini to existing picture folders on the old hard drive, which were previously associated with the MacBook Pro?

1) Yes
2) You don't create a new catalog in this situation; you simply move the catalog file from the MacBook Pro to the Mini, then double-click on it.

How to merge request and dependent task

Hello,
I would like to merge some TOs generate during the last month and I see than I have some object which are missing because they are only present in tasks.
Is it possible to choose all objects contains in requests and dependant tasks when we have only the requests number?
Thanks for your answers
Regards,
Nico.

Tasks are designed to be run once. If you want restart functionality, use a service:
http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/concurrent/Service.html
The sample service I posted in the following thread demonstrates how to do this:
Multithreading
Use of Executors is not necessary as a Service encapsulates the execution thread management (though you can set your own executor on the service if you really needed it). All you need to do is make use of the service start, cancel, restart and reset methods as required. If you do use the cancel method, then you need to make sure that your service is properly interrupt aware for the cancel to function as you expect.

Separating obiee server and presentation services via Web Logic Server

Hello,
I'm attempting to Install OBIEE Server 11.1.1.3.0 on Linux (box A). I also am installing Web Logic Server 10.3.3 on Linux (box B) with the plan of deploying presentation services on WLS.
I originally did the following:
1. setup Repositoyr using RCU
2. Installed OBIEE 11.1.1.3.0 using Enterprise Option.
3. Installed WLS 10.3.3
4. Began following this doc: http://www.obieetalk.com/deploying-obi-presentation-services-weblogic
---and the following questions arose as I was going through those steps:
a. when I start up the Weblogic configuration wizard. I get to step 8 and it asks me to configure the Administration Server.
--is that the Weblogic Server(box B)?
b. It then asks me to configure Managed Servers.
--That is the Weblogic Server, correct(box B)?
I skipped Configuring Clusters.
c. It then asks to Configure Machines.
--I'm not sure what to put here.
**I then proceeded to open up an SR and was given a "Here's the install guide" as a 'Solution Offered'.
Oracle then came back with you need to do a "Software Only" install of OBIEE
--On Box A or B? Because when I do that it asking where the WebLogic Server / Middleware Home is located.
So, I'm asking
1. do I do Enterprise, Simple or Software Only on Box A?
2. Install WLS first, and then follow the document( http://www.obieetalk.com/deploying-obi-presentation-services-weblogic ) on how to deploy the Presentation Services?
3. Which will lead me back to these questions:
a. when I start up the Weblogic configuration wizard. I get to step 8 and it asks me to configure the Administration Server.
--is that the Weblogic Server(box B)?
b. It then asks me to configure Managed Servers.
--That is the Weblogic Server, correct(box B)?
I skipped Configuring Clusters.
c. It then asks to Configure Machines.
--I'm not sure what to put here.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I had the same problem and also tried to fix it by uninstalling and reinstalling the BI Office Plug-In. I found the complete uninstallation is a little more than just running it through Windows "Add and remove programs"
Here is what I found:
1. Uninstall using "normal" Windows functionality
2. Search the folder "C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information"
- there are a lot of folders beginning {.. in that
- search every folder and find the one for Oracle BI Office by opening every "setup.ini"
- remember that folder
- delete that folder
3. Open windows registry and found the same key remembered earlier
- delete everything containing that key
4. Open MS Excel, Manage AddIns and look if the PlugIn is still installed. If yes, delete it
5. Delete the folders where you've installed Oracle BI Office (both: BIOfficeExcel and BIOfficePowerpoint
Re-Install Oracle BI Office
