Associating an outline with Business Rule in EAS

I have seen it on couple of environments, after restarting services, you need to access Hyperion Planning application in Workspace before are able to see Planning application in EAS Business Rules. Initially none of the applications appear in 'Select Database Outline' box.
Does anyone know, if this is a bug, issue with configuration or actual functionality?

Can't associate Planning Outline to Business Rule in EAS

Hi all
I've searched through this forum but can't seem to find a solution to my issue on any of the existing threads, I have tried what has been suggested to others who seem to have the same problem. My issue is this ... When I have a Business Rule open in EAS, and I try to associate the outline to my Planning Application, I can't see my Planning app. This problem goes both ways ... I can't associate an outline to my Planning App from EAS, and in Planning I can't see the BR's that are added to my forms.
Some history to the issue and what I've tried so far:
This is happening in a test environment, we used this environment a while back to test the changing of the Admin password and what the impact would be. The Admin password was changed successfully and all the components seem to work (EAS, Planning, Workspace, Shared Services) to be honest I didn't test the Business Rules at the time so I don't know if this is causing the problem that I have now. The test environment hasn't been used in a while (besides the testing of the admin password) so I'm not sure at what point this problem started and if the changing of the Admin password is the cause.
I'm not sure if I've messed up something with the RMI Registry because EAS and Planning can't seem to see each other??
I have tried: (without success)
- Changing the password back to what it was originally
- Running the Planning configuration tool
- I have created a new Planning application and can associate a BR in EAS to the new App but still can't see the existing App.
- From within Planning, I have selected 'Administration' -> 'Manage Database' and recreated the Application (selected 'create' rather than 'refresh')
- From within Workspace, when I selected 'Navigation' -> 'Administer' -> 'Classic Application Administration' -> 'Planning Administration' The existing Application does not show up
on the list, only the new test application that I created.
The environment that I am working in:
Planning Classic Application
Version 11.1.1.3 (EAS, Planning, Workspace, Shared Services)
Oracle Solaris on SPARC (32-bit)
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I know that I mentioned that this is on a test environment but I need this environment to set up user training and I need to be able to simulate the business process which means running a Business Rule from a form in Planning.
Kind Regards,
Fraser

hi All
No need to reply, I sorted it out by changeing the EDIT_DIM_ENABLED property to true, now I can change the Calculation module option from 'Calculation Manager' to 'Business Rules'

Slow Performance with Business Rules

Hello,
Has anyone ever had slow performance with business rules? For example, I attached a calc script to a form and it ran for 20 seconds. I made an exact replica of the calc script in a business rules and it took 30 seconds to run. Also, when creating / modifying business rules in EAS it takes a long time to open or save or attach security - any ideas on things to improve this performance?
Thanks!

If you are having issues with performance of assigning access then I am sure there was patch available, it was either a HSS patch or planning patch.

Error while validating Business rules in EAS

Hi,
Iam new to hyperion. I created business rule in EAS (using a user with businessrule admin role). when i tried to validate the same, it gives an error message like *"Unable to validate or run this business rule. Detail:Exception occurred. Please check your log file for details"*. So wats the actual problem.
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you have not added security to the rule. Before you assign security you must set the Location in the Location tab, this is the db you want to run the BR on (you can also use 'Allow all Locations')
Then you must goto security tab and assign users / groups to the BR, once you have done this the BR should validate and run.

Unable to open Business Rules in EAS

For some reason, I all of a sudden cannot open business rules in EAS.
I get the following errors:
Error while sending command to HBR Server running within the EAS server.
Detail:Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: http://usnbka091p:10080/eas/eas
The only thing that happened was that something was messed up with our active directory, but it eventually got fixed. Additionally, it takes a very long time for my EAS to open.
Does anyone have any ideas on where I can look for additional log files to review or anything else that could be causing the problem?

I did manage to get one of the BR's modified by using the admin ID, however there is still an issue. It seems to have something to do with one of our active directories not working. We recently changed active directories, however, there wasn't an issue until all the active directories went down last week. It seems like the original directory is no longer up and running. I am currently waiting for a response from our IT. We'll see how that goes.

Cannot select Planning outline in Business Rules

Hi Everyone,
I am not being able to select the planning outline while developing business rules (but I can select the Essbase Outline). Whenever I expand the Planning node, an error pops up the details of which says "Error connecting to Essbase server machinename/testapp." There is a details button which says: "Could not log into Planning "Detail:Could not log in to Planning Server".
Can anyone help me out. I am not being able to view the rules in the planning UI (and consequently cannot attach them to Forms)
Thanks

Error accessing Business Rules from EAS

Hi,
I am using EPM System 11 and trying to access Business Rules via Essbase Adminstration Services Console (EAS). When I open up the Business Rules node from Enterprise View, and select Repository View > Rules, a list of all the Business Rules is displayed. However, when I try to click on one to open it in the editor, I received an error message from EAS the reads:
Business Rules Error. Error creating DBUserGrpObjLinkTable. Cannot continue.
When I click Get Detail, it just displays Detail: null. This occurs when trying to open any of the Business Rules. In the past I have had no problem creating, editing, and launching business rules from EAS.
I am still able to successfully launch the Business Rules I have already created and assigned to my Planning application FROM the Planning Web Application, but I am not able to edit them or create any new ones in EAS. Does anyone know what has happened to cause this error? It appears as if something happen to the one of the tables in the relational database that was configured during the installation of the EPM system? I can provide more detail if necessary. Thank you.

I have restarted the services and that did not solve the problem. This may be a stupid question, but I'm not exactly sure who I would contact at Oracle about this problem. Can someone tell me where I should look for this?
Also, I have a bit more information from the logs that may be helpful in solving this. Here is an excerpt from the hbrserver.log:
2009-12-09 03:28:10,656 WARN main com.hyperion.hbr.core.AccessControlManagerServer - HBR repository is not configured. HBR will not be available.
2009-12-15 10:25:02,656 FATAL http-10080-Processor4 com.hyperion.hbr.core.AccessControlManagerServer - Error creating DBUserGrpObjLinkTable. Cannot continue.
It appears that the HBR repository is not configured? I am confused because Business Rules were working fine just last week, and I'm not sure what has changed. Also, I can still successfully run Business Rules from Planning. Any ideas on how to fix the repository? Thanks.

Trouble Creating Business rules from EAS

Hi All,
I am new to Essbase and Planning. I am facing trouble creating Business rules from EAS. Every time I click on Business rules it shows login failed...

Hi,
Welcome! I believe it could be an access issue. Take a look at this: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/hbr_admin_help/ch03s02s01.html
I would also check the provisioning. Here are the Business Rules roles: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epm_security/apas08.html
Hope it helps.

Error importing composite with business rules into SVN

Hello,
When I import a composite with business rules into Tortoise SVN I get below error.
Error: Commit blocked by pre-commit hook (exit code 1) with output:
Error: Path
Error: '/trunk/ProjectName_SCA/.rulesdesigner/jaxb_classes/com/ProjectName/package-info.class'
Error: is restricted for commit by pattern '\.class$' for the current user.
I could import other composites(w/o business rules)
Thanks

Further invesitgation bears this problem out.
Oracle support recommend wrapping the SimpleType in a ComplexType. This does work, but now I have an extra wrapper element to deal with. I either have to use the wrapped type in my other complex, composed Types and/or add an external wrapping element when trying to create Business Services in BPM to call the BusinessRules I've created.
This is a bit messy.
To be clear, this does not seem to be an issue with Business Rules; the BR editor and generation of Facts (including simple restricted types -> JAXB 2.0/Java Enumerations) seems to work correctly. There seems to be an issue exposing DFs as Services. The code which generated the WSDL and its supporting types seems to choke on restricted SimpleTypes.
As a side note, it seems that HumanTasks have a similar limitation

Urgent...!! Cannot Assosiate the Business Rule in EAS

Hi All,
I've some problem with my Business Rule (using 11.1.2.0 version). When I tried to associate the outline, it can't be done and error.
Error Message :
Error connecting to Planning server <name>.
Detail:Exception occurred. Please check your log file for details.
and the error log for the HBR :

How to solve this problem..??
Thanks.

Try restarting both Planning and the RMI services.
After the services has been restarted.
Log into Planning and go to Business Rules through Planning.
Check that you can see the business rules available via Planning.
Now try logging into EAS and associating a business rule to the planning outline.

Is this 11.1.2.1 by any chance?
We had this as well, but resolved the issue with this KB:
Error: "Error connecting to Essbase server EssbaseCluster-1" When Trying to Connect Business Rules to Essbase [ID 1328483.1]
     Modified 25-JUL-2011 Type PROBLEM Status PUBLISHED
In this Document
Symptoms
Cause
Solution
References
Applies to:
Hyperion Essbase - Version: 11.1.2.1.000 and later [Release: 11.1 and later ]
Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
in version 11.1.2.1, after switching Essbase from using host name to a cluster name, in Essbase Administration Services (EAS) it is no longer possible to navigate lower than "EssbaseCluster-1" in the tree of Locations in Business Rules. The following error occurs:
"Error connecting to Essbase server EssbaseCluster-1".
This happens with both pre-existing and new business rules.
Cause
This issue has been identified as unpublished BUG 11783671 - Unable To Select Outline For Essbase Rule If Essbase Cluster1 Is The Server
Solution
The current workaround is:
1. Search for the file named 'essbase.properties' under %EAS_HOME%. Note that normally on a windows setup %EAS_HOME% points to the following path:
":\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\eas"
If it does not exist, create a blank text file and name it 'essbase.properties' and place it under %EAS_HOME%\server\bin
2. Open it in notepad and add the following setting to the beginning of the file:
aps.resolver.urls=http://<APSSEVERNAME>:APSPORT/aps
e.g aps.resolver.urls=http://server1:13080/aps
NOTE: The line is case sensitive
3. Save the file and restart the EAS server.

Planning -v11.1.1.1 - Cannot Communicate with Business Rules

Hi,
We are unable to log into Business Rules no matter how many times we recreate users and properly provision them. I found this in the 11.1.1.1 Installation and Configuration Guide but have no idea of where or how to make this change.
Planning
• After you manually deploy Planning, Business Rules does not communicate with Planning. To work around this issue, add the following Java Options:
-DESS_ES_HOME=/hyperion/products/Essbase/eas/server -Dhyperion.home=/hyperion -DHYPERION_HOME=/Hyperion [8622082]
Where exactly would we do this and could it possibly help?

Issue is with SSH the SSH ware running in two sys and conflict issue.
Restored the Open DAP and suggested the client to re start the Service and server ones.
Client can successfully able to log to EAS and to BR now.
Couple of BR access issue is resolved by provision and Refresh of Manage database.

Changes to business rules in EAS not reflecting in planning

Hi Friends,
One of my client is facing the issue issue.Could anyone help on the issue.
When a new business rule is created or changed in EAS, the changes are not reflected in Planning. A stop and restart of the service is required to see the new business rule or a change to a calculation.
This is a consistent error we are having in development.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Hi,
First I would check to see if any patches relate to the issue you are having.
I would then log the issue with Oracle to see if they can help any further and it could be a bug.
It sounds like the cache may not be getting updated so planning doesn't see any changes, restarting clears the cache and objects are read directly from the database tables so you can the changes, that is just a guess though.
Cheers

Mixing geospatial queries with business rules

Is there an easy way to incorporate a Spatial-/Locator-based geo-spatial query into an Oracle Business Rules rule? For example (pardon my psuedo-code):
IF pub within 2 miles of my house AND pub sells cider THEN walk to pub
If not then is there another way to break down this sort of problem?

Hi Sri,
1. Basics of BR ( Business Rules ) can be found in planning document ( there are 2 planning docs 1. user guide and 2. Admin guide). Pls find that
2. From Planning perspective , we create Business Rules ,which are nothing but another version of essbase calculatino scripts , thats why you do see in EAS.
3. Essbase training does not include Business Rules ( planning does include).If you are comfortable with calculation scripts, then BR's should be comfortable to you.
4. To see BR's in shared services , I have a question , did you install Planning and all.
