I really don't understand what you are trying to do (may be because you are in 11 version{allocation in ASO cube sounds kool).
but I can tell you the syntax error you are getting at first line.
change it to:
"crossjoin([Year].[FY10],crossjoin([period].[Jan],crossjoin([account].[a111],[Entity].levels(0))))"

Help on Crossjoin Syntax Please on ASO Allocation

Hi,
Tyring to run an ASO Allocation via MaxL. I always have trouble with syntax on CrossJoins for some reason. When I run the below I get an error:
ERROR - 1260052 - Syntax error in input MDX query on line 1 at token ')' .
ERROR - 1241192 - Allocation terminated with Essbase error 1260052 in AMOUNT.

spread;You cannot paste your code, calc manager provides a GUI version of allocate command where you can just type in your members.

MaxL error 1241114 - There were errors, look in...

I am running the following MaxL in a batch script on one of our Essbase cubes, which passes the MaxL to ESSMSH.
MaxL:
login admin identified by ******* on *******;
iferror "errorhandler";
spool stdout on to "\\*******\\*******\\Logs\\*******BefLoad.log";
iferror "errorhandler";
spool stderr on to "\\*******\\*******\\Logs\\*******BefLoad.err";
iferror "errorhandler";
set timestamp on;
execute calculation "'FIX(\"*******\",@ICHILDREN(\"*******\")) CLEARDATA \"*******\"; ENDFIX'" on *******.*******;
iferror "errorhandler";
import database *******.******* dimensions from data_file "\\\\*******\\FDMDATA\\*******\\Outbox\\*******.Dat" using server rules_file "L_Data" preserve input data on error append to "\\\\*******\\*******\\Logs\\*******BefLoad.err";
iferror "errorhandler";
logout;
exit 0;
define label "errorhandler";
exit 10;
However, every time the MaxL executes, I have the following single line generated in the "\\*******\*******\Logs\*******BefLoad.err" file:
WARNING - 1241114 - There were errors, look in \\*******\*******\Logs\*******BefLoad.err.
This error is actually pointing to itself (the .err file), however this is the only line with no further information, and is generated every time the batch script is run, even though the build appears to have worked fine. I have double-checked and there are no errors (or even warnings) in the Essbase application log to suggest anything has gone wrong!
Does anyone please have a suggestion as to why it is being generated? Can we just ignore this error? I have read the following, which points out that data load errors will not be trapped by the MaxL "iferror" statement. However, it would be useful to know why this error is occurring and specifically what is going wrong.
MaxL Error Codes

Hi James -
Your dataload errors are getting spooled to the same file as Essbase is trying to spool the message saying that there were dataload errors. I wouldn't count on that working the way you expect it to, and it's not an approach I have ever used - I'd think keeping the stderr spool separate (i.e. separate files) from the dataload errors makes sense.
My bet is that if you point the two error streams to different files you'll see that there are in fact load errors, they're just getting messed up by the fact that stderr and dataload errors are pointing at the same file.
BTW, I appreciate that you're anonymizing for client confidentiality (amazing how many folks post info that obviously identifies their company and give out server / user names...), but any chance you could use e.g. 'appname', 'dbname' etc rather than *******? Asterisks make my eyes hurt, but more importantly they make the different tokens impossible to distinguish. Cheers!

MAXL error handling

Can someone show me an example of MAXL error handling, especially in cases of copying or creating an app/db and it already exists?Thanks,Alex

Essbase ASO Allocation

Hi, all,
I am writing an ASO allocation script, which is working now. However, I wonder whether there is any way to easily have some mathematics operations on some of the fields. For example, in the following allocation script, how can i use the negative figures of the amount to allocated out? For example, "([East],[Total_Expenses])" is a positive 1000. However, I would like to have the negative 1000 (e.g. -1000) to be allocated amount?
execute allocation process on database DemoASO.Basic with
pov "Crossjoin(Descendants([Year],[Year].levels(0)),
Crossjoin(Descendants([Product],[Product].levels(0)),
Descendants([Scenario],[Scenario].levels(0))))"
amount "([East],[Total_Expenses])"
target ""
range "CrossJoin({[Sales],[Cost_of_Goods_Sold]},
Descendants([South],[Market].levels(0)))"
spread;
Is there a easy way to do such amount calculation in the ASO allocation script? Or I have to created additional members in outline to do such reversal of the sign?
Appreciate any suggestions/ideas?
Thanks a lot

Major caveat - I haven't used the function - but have you looked at the Technical Reference?
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_tech_ref/maxl_execalloc.html
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_tech_ref/maxl_alloc_numeric.html
The example there says that 'amount' is a numeric expression, i.e. you don't just have to list a member or tuple there. It looks like you can use an arithmetic expression, but if you do all members must be from the same dimension - so your {[East], [Total_Expenses]} might be problematic. But that's obviously a sample rather than your actual use case.

MaxL error tracking II

I have a simpler question about tracking errors from a Maxl script. I run a Unix script that calls Maxl to back up the Essbase applications. I just want to trap the return code and send a email if there were any errors from the Maxl script. I'm using the follow code to trap any errors from the Unix commands. This is working for the Unix commands but does not reccognize errors from the Maxl script. Is there a way I can set the return code in the maxl script to non zero when an error occurs. Currently the return code is zero after returning from Maxl when an error occurs.
error_message()
mailx -s "Essbase backup error" email@... < /opt/BackupError.txt
trap 'error_message' ERR
set -e
cd /opt/hyperion/HYP_BACKUP/scripts
/opt/hyperion/AnalyticServices/bin/essmsh < /opt/staff/MaxlScript.msh > /opt/staff/Maxl.log 2>$1
exit
Thanks,
Tom

I'm no *nix jockey, so you're going to hear this from a Windows perspective.
In Windows, %ERRORLEVEL% will return the error code, sometimes. See my comments in this thread: MaxL error tracking
A more robust approach would be spool errors to STDERR, and then test to see if that file exists, and if so, what's inside.
^^^Probably not what you wanted to hear.

Just an add on that writing a routine that interrogated the file shouldn't really be that big of a deal. Once you code your own way on this you can pass whatever value you want on to the calling code.

ASO Allocation EXCLUDERANGE syntax question

am developing an allocation script and need to be able to exclude certain members identified by UDAs from the allocation. When I try to use the UDA function in the excludedrange specification I cannot find a solution to the requirement to have the excluded range statement in double quotes as well as the UDA value. Script is as follows:
execute allocation process on database app.db with
pov "Crossjoin({[Final]},
Crossjoin({[b701]},
Crossjoin({[c21001]},
Crossjoin({[i000]},
Crossjoin({[All Reports]},
Crossjoin({[All Channels]},{[a41510]})
amount "[PD08]"
amountcontext "([l0999],[Act],[2013])"
target "([Alloc],[PD08],[2013])"
range "Attribute([Status_Open])"
excludedrange "UDA([Location], "Exclude_Alloc_1")"
spread
Can anyone suggest an escape character combination that might work ?
Thanks,
Gavin

ASO - Create database error

I have been tried to create ASO database from either esscmd or maxl, but both failed. For esscmd: copydb "oldApp" "oldDatabase" "newApp" "newDatabase"; for maxl: create database newApp.newDatabase as oldApp.oldDatabase Both got same error: Operation not supported for aggregate storage applications. Any helps would be great. Thanks, Yan

This is because you need to do a little bit more then you just did. This is what I used on my local machine (OS X) for my database area51, the script was created by the DBCA. As you can see I point to a pfile before I create the database. In this init.ora file, the db_name has been set (among a lot of other stuff). Therefore I gave you the hint to look into the documentation ;)

ASO App Rename Error

Hi all,
I am trying to rename an ASO app with the following MaxL script.
alter application 'TEST4' rename to 'TEST5';
it results in the following error -
ERROR - 1053019 - Cannot rename directory: App directory path[Permission denied].
Please help.

I have all the privileges. I am the Administrator. I gave myself all the rights on the server. But if you mean that i need to give myself rights to dynamically created applications, I wonder how i can do that. The process that i am trying to accomplish here is, to build and load an ASO application, say ASO1, and then copy the built application over to another application, say ASO2. The purpose is to make sure atleast one of the ASO applications is available to the users at any point in time. Also to your point of having privileges on the specific application, when i run the MaxL script, all the files in the directory get deleted except for the "essbaseapp.instance" file.

what could be the reason .. I have tried using '//' or '\' in file path but still getting same error.

Can you post your script. (change " to ' in POV and SourceRegion section)

Maxl Error during data load - file size limit?

Does anyone know if there is a file size limit while importingdata into an ASO cube via Maxl. I have tried to execute: Import Database TST_ASO.J_ASO_DB datausing server test data file '/XX/xXX/XXX.txt'using server rules_file '/XXX/XXX/XXX.rul'to load_buffer with buffer_id 1on error write to '/XXX.log'; It errors out after about 10 minutes and gives "unexpectedEssbase error 1130610' The file is about 1.5 gigs of data. The filelocation is right. I have tried the same code with a smaller fileand it works. Do I need to increase my cache or anything? I alsogot "DATAERRORLIMIT' reached and I can not find the log filefor this...? Thanks!

Have you looked in the data error log to see what kind of errors you are getting. The odds are high that you are trying to load data into calculated memebers (or upper level memebers) resulting in errors. It is most likely the former. you specify the error file with the on error write to '/XXX.log'; statement. Have you looked for this file to find why you are getting errors? Do yourself a favor, load the smaller file and look for the error file to see what kind of an error you are getting. It is possible that you error file is larger than your load file, since multiple errors on a single load item may result in a restatement of the entire load line for each error. This is a starting point for your exploration into the problem. DATAERRORLIMIT is set at the config file, default at 1000, max at 65000. NOMSGLOGGINGONDATAERRORLIMIT if set to true, just stops logging and continues the load when the data error limit is reached. I'd advise using this only in atest environement since it doesn't solve the initial problem of data errors. Probably what you'll have to do is ignore some of the columns in the data load that load into calculated fields. If you have some upper level memebers, you could put them in skip loading condition. let us know what works for you.

FI-GL allocation - distribution error: no valid receiver entries exist

When creating an allocation cycle with fixed percentages and distribution defined on own Z-field (exists in table T800D without
checks) we get Message no. GA109 when going to the receiver tracing factor screen.
This happens only when entering a range or set for the receiver. With one unique value we get the tracing factor screen.
This worked before with ranges and sets. As far as we know there are no changes done at the configuration.
What can trigger this error? Something must be changed, but I have no clue what...
Can you give me some tips to help me searching?

Hi Prasada,
I can change the set I use, so I guess it is not locked ?
The set consists of 18 single values, from 1 to 18. So I tried with a set with a range 1 to 18, and also without a set and just a range 1 to 18 but that didn't help.
When I use only 1 value I dont get the error.
Before we did some tests with the same cycle (same segments and sets) and we didn't had the problem.
We have the problem now for more than a week.
Any other suggestions?
Renaat.
UPDATE FYI: we had to activate valdiation on the fields used for the allocation
Strange because we did tests in the sandbox before without these validation on.

Maxl - Error while building dimension

Hi,
I am using below syntax in Maxl for building dimension. I am getting error. Could someone help me with this. I am pulling the load rule using SQL
import database 'Application Name'.'Database Name' dimensions connect as 'User Name' identified by 'password' using rules_file 'Buildfilename' on error write to 'D:\Error.txt';
Thanks

Try this
import database 'Application Name'.'Database Name' dimensions connect as 'User Name' identified by 'password' using SERVER rules_file 'Buildfilename' on error write to 'D:\Error.txt';

Maxl Error

I am trying to load data from RDBMS using maxl script. I am using this script

connect as Suman identified by kolkata@1
using server rules_file 'Rul_DB.rul'
on error write to 'C:\Hyperion\AnalyticServices\app\Rollout\Rollout\ErrorLog_RDBMS.txt';
I am getting this error:
syntax error near ['@']
In password i have the '@' symbol. I am getting no other error. Please help me to fix this issue.
Regards,
Suman

I'd try ruling out the password first then. Have you tried putting it in quotes? Another thing you could try is changing the password temporarily if that is possible.

MAXL error logging

Hi Guys,
I have a script to import a number of dimensions, this was previously done with an Esscmd script but is now in a MAXL script. Is it possible to write to an error log for each dimensionn I dont seem to be able to get the syntax correct;
import database Appname.DBname dimensions
connect as 'user' identified by 'password' using server rules_file 'Products' preserve all data on error append to '\\\server\\share\Products.err',
connect as 'user' identified by 'password' using server rules_file 'Customer' preserve all data on error append to '\\\server\\share\product.err',
and so on, this will error at the first comma at the end of line 3, if I replace the comma with semi colon the first statement is executed ok but not the second.
All help appreciated
Ed

What happened is that you used the error file after each transaction, you should add the error file after your last transaction or build. Or if you want to have separate error files you have to have separate statements for each dimension build that starts with 'importdatabase Appname.DBname dimensions'.
here's a sample of a single statement:
import database sample.basic dimensions
from server text data_file 'genref' using server rules_file 'genref' suppress verification,
from server text data_file 'level' using server rules_file 'level' suppress verification,
from server text data_file 'time' using server rules_file 'time'
preserve input data on error append to 'C:\Hyperion\EAS\eas\client\dataload.err';
