BI 4.0 server and client apps coexistence

Hi SAP experts,
we have installed BI 4.0 SP02 FP03 (Win 2008) for one of our customer with AS JAVA Netweaver 7.3 (Linux) application server.
Customer is now requesting to install the BI 4.0 SP02 FP03 client tools and rich clients on the server where BI 4.0 Server application is actually installed for some testing purposes:
1. SBOP BI4 SP02 Client Tools
2. SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.0 SP02
3. SAP BusinessObjects Dashboard Designer 4.0 SP02 (formerly Xcelsius)
Is there any limitation in coexistence of these 3 applications on the same OS where Bi 4.0 Server is actually installed? in addition, we have BPC 7.5 with IIS eunning on that OS level as well.
Thanks!
Erik.

Hi,
you can have client and server on the same hardware but you then need to make sure that they are always on the same patch and fixpack level

  • Data streaming between server and client does not complete

    Using an ad-hoc app, data streaming between server
    and client does not complete as it supposed to be.
    The process runs well in solaris 5.8, however under 5.9
    we have found the characters stream buffer length limitation
    is around 900 to 950 characters (by default we are using 3072
    characters).
    Example:
    - We are transfering HTML file, which will be displayed
    in the App client, with buffer=3072, the HTML only displayed / transfered
    as xxxxxxxx characters, but with buffer=900 the HTML is displayed properly,
    in this case, the only problem that we have is the file transfer will
    eventually longer than usual.
    - There is another case, where we have to transfer information (data) as stream
    to the client. A long data stream will not appear at all in the client.
    Any ideas why the change between 5.8 and 5.9 woudl cause problems?
    The current app-driver that we are using is compiled using Solaris 5.6,
    if possible we would like to have use of a later version, which is compiled using Solaris 5.9, do you think this will probably solve our problem?
    Thanks

    Does this have anything to do with Java RMI? or with Java come to think of it?

  • Try to use one comupter as both server and client

    Hello, everyone, I am just trying to use my own computer as both server and client to test some codes about networking. For example, use the sample code in java tutorial which is used to test Echo server(code is listed below). Is there anything I have to do to set my computer, such as set my hostname or something like that?
    I am a pure newbie. And the purpose of this question is to test some code including socket on one PC without connect to internet.
    I have tried to change the name "taranis" in the following code to the computer name of my own PC, but it doesn't work, and said: Couldn't get I/O for the connection to: (my computer name).
    import java.io.*;
    import java.net.*;
    public class EchoClient {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    Socket echoSocket = null;
    PrintWriter out = null;
    BufferedReader in = null;
    try {
    echoSocket = new Socket("taranis", 7);
    out = new PrintWriter(echoSocket.getOutputStream(), true);
    in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
    echoSocket.getInputStream()));
    } catch (UnknownHostException e) {
    System.err.println("Don't know about host: taranis.");
    System.exit(1);
    } catch (IOException e) {
    System.err.println("Couldn't get I/O for "
    + "the connection to: taranis.");
    System.exit(1);
         BufferedReader stdIn = new BufferedReader(
    new InputStreamReader(System.in));
         String userInput;
         while ((userInput = stdIn.readLine()) != null) {
         out.println(userInput);
         System.out.println("echo: " + in.readLine());
         out.close();
         in.close();
         stdIn.close();
         echoSocket.close();

    Did you write the EchoServer and start it on your
    machine, listening on port 7?
    You can have the client and server running on the same
    machine or different machines, but they have to be
    separate pieces of software.
    Write a separate EchoServer class that starts up and
    listens on that port. Then start the EchoClient and
    make the connection.
    %yeah, I didn't wrote the EchoServer class. But I thought it is automaticly included and therefore has run once I start my computer.
    If I write a EchoServer class, then how should I set the host name of the EchoClient, just simply change "taranis" to my computer name (change "echoSocket = new Socket("taranis", 7);" to echoSocket = new Socket("(my comptuer name)", 7);"?

  • Force CORBA server and client to localhost

    Hi,
    i have to run an omg corba server and client via orbd on a single machine with win xp. The machine is connected to the network, but this is not relevant for the corba communication.
    I can now force the orbd to start at localhost. After starting server and client everything works well until disconnecting machine from network, because client and server are started at ip of network card.
    How can i force the client and server to use a localhost port for corba communication (client and server)?
    Hope anyone has an idea...
    br
    ralf
    P.S.: If I start the applications after disconnecting network everthing works.

    Resolved the problem myself.
    The correct property is a java system property:
    com.sun.CORBA.ORBServerHost=localhost
    If you set this property in your application before instanciating an ORB, the orb will be forced to run on the set value (in this case localhost). If you do not set this property the ORB will be started at the IP of your network card if it is active (connected to the network)...

  • Connection fails if server and clients are in different subnets

    Hello,
    our Volume License Manager (v2.1) is running in another subnets than the clients (All machines are running under Windows XP-SP2 without Domains or ADS, just workgroups).
    The server is in subnet A (192.168.42.0/24), all clients are located in another subnet  B (192.168.50.0/24).
    Routing is properly configured and is working fine, traffic to the specific hosts is not blocked by a firewall. We can ping every machine,
    open telnet connections to the NILM, everything works.
    But if the clients try to connect to the remote NILM (both local client NI License Manager and VLM port settings are correct)  their connection attempt always
    times out with error code "NILM10"
    (I already read the mentioned KBs, no solution has helped so far). This is true if clients and server are separated.
    For testing purposes, i plugged one client into the server's subnet (server's IP: 192.168.50.250, client 192.168.50.10)
    and it worked perfectly. Is there a reason why  server and client have to be on the same subnet or is it some other kind of problem that I am not aware of?
    Thank you.
    Thorsten

    Hello Thorsten,
    Did you add the server's domain to the client computer's DNS settings. To do this, complete the following steps on the client computer:
    1. Open Local Area Network Settings from the Control Panel (Start»Control Panel»Network Connections»Local Area Connection)
    2. Click the Properties button
    3. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) from the list of network components
    4. Click the Properties button
    5. Click the Advanced button
    6. Change to the DNS tab
    7. Ensure Append these DNS suffixes is selected
    8. Click the Add button
    9. Enter the domain suffix of the license server and click Add
    10. Close any open dialog boxes, choosing OK and Close as necessary.

  • Time sync between server and client

    Hi guys,
    I have written a chess server and client. My next step is to implement a clock which will be used in timed games, however, I am not sure of the best solution. I can't think of a reliable method to keep the client's time in sync with the servers because the event latency varies between individual events and clients.
    My first idea was to send a 'tick' event every second but I dont think this the best solution. I have seen many applet based clients which have timers, such as Yahoo chess.
    I know this question is a little vague, I can give more detail if needed.
    Thanks,
    Alex

    To prevent client-side cheating, the server should keep the
    "official" clock. Every so often (perhaps when a move gets made?),
    notify both clients of the official time. Clients count seconds from
    that official time.
    This is a suboptimal solution because it leaves clients vulnerable
    to network lag. I can't think of any other solution that doesn't give
    clients some responsibility for tracking time, though, and that's a
    big security hole.
    If you're willing to open that hole, have each client report back to
    the server the elapsed local time from when they recieved the
    last move to when they made their move. Then update the other
    client's clock accordingly.

  • MultiThreaded Server and Client connections query.

    I have written a MultiThreaded Server to accept incoming client requests.
    Multiple clients can connnect to this server and have a conversation.
    I invoke the 'MultiServer' from the command line and then invoke 3 clients
    from the command line.('Client').
    c:> java MultiServer
    c:> java Client
    c:> java Client
    c:> java Client
    All the 3 clients now run in their own thread and send messages
    to the server.
    The problem I am facing is this:
    When client1 connects to the server and sends a message to the server (with the server responding)
    it works fine.Both Server and Client can exchange messages.
    When client2 connects to the server and sends a message and when the server
    responds with a message,the message does NOT go to client2,but goes to Client1
    As Clients have their own thread to run,shouldnt the messages also be delivered to
    individual clients
    Am I missing something?

    Taking standard input for multiple threads from one console is quite unpredictable. I think the first client thread is waiting for input when you connect the second. You type something into your server window and since the first thread was waiting for input, it takes the input and sends it to client 1.

  • How can a VI be both server and client?

    Hi, 
    I'm new in LabView and I'm trying to build a server and client VI using TCP/IP that runs in two computers. in my program I need both server and client VIs to communicate with each other which means I need both VIs to be server and client. I've tried using a case structure but it doesnt work. The only thing I achieved is a normal server/client system where the server sends a request and the client responses.But i need the client to send requests too.i have attached my VIs to this post.I would appriciate it if someone could help with this problem. 
    Thanks in advanced.

    Do you really need a client and server on each PC? If you simply need that two to talk to each other they can once the client connects to the server. In most cases you only need one server.
    What Steve said about the not using the same port only applies to two servers on the same machine. A client must use the port the server is listening to and if the client and the server are on the same machine then they will both use the same port. However, only ONE of them is accepting waiting for connections on that port.
    In the code you posted you actually swapped the names. What you call the client is actually the server code and vise versa. In networking a server is an application that listens to an assigned port, accepts connections on that port and provides whatever services it has implemented. A client is an application that establishs a connection to a server. Once a connection is established the two applications can communicate in both directions. The applications themselves will define how the conversation should progress and whether it is a one way conversation or a two way conversation. You don't specify what you are trying to accomplish but I suspect you only need a single server.
    In TCP, every connection is defined by the source and destination IP addresses and the source and destination ports. The server uses a known port (FTP is port 21, HTTP is 80, telnet is 23, or some custom port in the user space beyonds the reserved ports) to listen for connections. The client will use the well known port of teh server and generally picks a random port for its port number. The LabVIEW VIs do this automatically. This is how a server and a client on the same computer can use the same port number. Two servers however cannot. The server application can spawn a child task allowing it to service multiple connections at one time though. Each connection will be unique though since the client's port number, address or both will change for each connection.
    OK, end of networking 101.
    Can you describe in a bit more detail what exactly you want to accomplish. Given that I could probably provide you with more information for your application.

    hi everybody...
    I wanna know that can I use RMI server and client in a same program....My idea is like that I wanna use the same program for client and server....When I open my program, I can accept connection from other program and if I want to connect to others, I can also connect it.

    With SQL Server configuration management program I could to launch the SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service and the database server start up!!
    With SQL Server management studio I could to launch the client application, then was establishing a connection to the server and all was working fine!
    Now, how to work with oracle database?
    I installed oracle server and client version 11g R2 on windows 8, but how can I start the server database? .. and how can I start the client application for querying?
    regards in advance.
    P.S.: Sorry for my english.

    Hi ican,
    I was looking at your VI's but I cannot seem to pinpoint exactly where you are using Windows Media Player.  In order to more quickly assist you, could you please recreate this issue more concisely in a smaller set of VIs.  Also, were you able to get sound when you did not use the TCP/IP connection and simply played the files in LabVIEW?
    I noticed in a few places that you were using the Play Sound File.VI from the Graphics and Sounds palette.  Is that what you are refering to?  I noticed there that the file path that you have designated for the song is simply the song title.  Instead, this should be a path to where the song is located on your computer.
    Also, if you are planning on using Windows Media Player, have you considered using the ActiveX commands for Windows Media Player?  Here are a few examples if you are unfamiliar with this functionality.
    Example 1 and Example 2.
    I hope this helps!
