BI Analytics repo problem

Hello,
Im a newby with OBIEE. I installed the BI 11.1.1.6 on a linux VM and the client on my windows 7 machine. The network is "host only". Everything seems working, i also created the repo and updated that in online mode. The only problem is when i log in the BI Analytics. After logged, I see only this kind of messages:

Hi,
Did you changed/customised anything on below bieehome.htm file
D:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_BI1\bifoundation\web\msgdb\pages\bieehome\bieehome.htm
Note: before doing changes take a back bieehome.htm file.

Flash Player 10 causing a Google Analytics Admin Problem

Since I upgraded to Flash Play 10, inside the admin of Google Analytics is not working. When I log in to Google Analytics, Flash Play 10 is a part of adjusting the dates and it is causing some type of error that I can't figure out. All I want to do is be able to adjust dates within Google Analytics and I can't.
It happens in the three different browsers FireFox, IE and Chrome. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling an older version but it still isn't working.
The reason I believe it is the flash play is because when I open the date section in Analytics I can right click and it give me the option of 'About Adobe Flash Player" and shortly after updating I opened analytics and my browser crashed.
I am going to uninstall my browsers to see if that will work but if anyone else has had this problem and solved it please help me out.
Thanks

Hi, Thanks for the feedback. Yes that does help in many cases. Sometimes updating the device drivers also.
The hardware acceleration sometimes can't be used by every system. You can read about the system requirements and what and how it works here:

Siebel Analytics Chart problem

Hi,
I installed Siebel Analytics 10.1.3.3.3 but charts does not appear on dashboard.
Firstly I said the server machine properties. Server machine is MS Win Server 2003 64bit. Before Siebel was installed , I installed Oracle 10g DB 10.2.0.1 64 bit and Oracle 10g DB 10.2.0.4 64bit Patch on same machine. After that we installed siebel and charts was appear. My problem is after then the siebel installation, I installed warehouse builder on same machine and charts was not appear.
I changed the java path on instanceconfig.xml, but problem was not solved.
Do you have any idea?
Thank you,

Wow, you waited 2 years to post. LoL. Anyway, check your browser's security settings (make sure you don't block java-script or flash). If it's a fresh-install, I'd simply re-install OBIEE, some java components might have been mixed up, especially when you're installing so many apps (you didn't restart after each install, did you?). I hope this helps.

I've Made the Switch (from iWeb) & Lived to Tell About It.

I've gotten a lot of help and useful information from this forum over the years and I will certainly miss it. I've just completed a 2 month transition where I've migrated my site from iWeb/Mobile Me to a new site made in RapidWeaver and hosted by Host Excellence. I figured I'd write a little (or a lot) about my experience, to give some others an idea of what they've got to look forward too. Hopefully it will arm you with some things to do and look out for. While I am describing RapidWeaver here, a lot of this process will be the same no matter what new software you use. I started off being pretty happy with what I had going in iWeb and not being thrilled at all about making the switch. Now I am so glad I made the switch and I am far happier about the new site than I was with the old one. BTW: the new sites address is: http://grillinsmokin.net . Feel free to visit. I think you'll quickly notice some things you simple can't do in iWeb. This isn't a knock against iWeb. I was very happy with iWeb and had no plans to switch. Where it hasn't been developed actively for four years now, it has been left behind somewhat.
To begin at the beginning: I've had a site made with iWeb since January of 2006 called Grillin' & Smokin' that combined my love of outdoor cooking and photography. Over the years it had grown rather large, with 375 photo entry pages and 230 blog pages. The Domain file was around 1.4 GB. This was not something I ever wanted to have to recreate from scratch. However losing MobileMe as a host was taking away Value Added features like the Hit Counter, Slide Show, Blog Comments, Blog Search etc. The handwriting is on the wall for iWeb too. I might have gone on using iWeb, but between losing key features and the fact iWeb was starting to show it's age, it was time for me to move on. Just before the iCloud announcement this Spring, I began researching website building software. I looked at their features, working methodology, themes, plug-ins and extensions. I download trial versions of the software where it was available as well as some of the themes or plugins I might be using. I gotta tell you, at first I was very frustrated and upset, because I was not finding anything that had the ease of use of iWeb and looked like it was going to be able to recreate the appearance of my original site. It appeared to be a series of compromises. I'd like the features of one package but I hated the themes available for that software. Another looked promising but isn't being upgraded regularly. My biggest frustration was some of the iWeb page types just don't exist in other packages. For example the Album Pages where multiple Photo Pages can be grouped and displayed, don't have a direct equivalent in any other package I saw. As part of my discovery process I read reviews of the various packages, including head to head comparisons of some of them. I also visited their discussion forums. After doing this for 3 weeks I "settled" on RapidWeaver. It was under active development; had a thriving developer community turning out a wide variety of add ons, plug-ins and themes; had an active user community & had lots of help resources available. The web pages it produced were standards compliant and you could get nice effects without resorting to Flash. I think the biggest selling point was all of the add-ons-kind of the same advantage the iPhone has with it's App Store.
Once I bought RapidWeaver & a 3rd Party theme, I tried the demo versions of some of the plug-ins and made sample versions of my page types from iWeb in RapidWeaver. I wanted to have a process in place, before I started mass production on the site. You really do need to do some of this homework in advance to avoid unpleasant surprises. The biggest minus I'd turned up about RapidWeaver (RW from this point on) is it didn't handle big sites well at all. The equivalent of the iWeb Domain file is the RapidWeaver Sandwich file or RWSW file. Once the RWSW file reaches 100MB or so you can get crashes or hangs uploading your site. Now 100 MB doesn't sound like much particularly when I was talking about a 1.4GB iWeb Domain File for my site, but RW doesn't include the photos in the RWSW file. Still I knew I was going to have to divide my site across several RWSW files. Initially the plan was to divide it into 3 sites: The main landing pages was one RWSW file and is the site reached by the url for the site. I was going to have a second RWSW file for my blogs and a third for my photos. Ultimately I ended up dividing the photos into 3 RWSW files. These extra files are hosted on sub-domians whose name goes in front of the main domain (http://sub-domain.main-domain.com). This meant some extra setup for me with my web-host, although they made the setup for the 4 sub-domains very easy and they were free. If you have a huge site and will need to split it, you'll want to check with your prospective web host if they charge extra for hosting additional sub-domains. For small iWebs sites this is not an issue-you have one RWSW file and one web address, just like you do now. My having sub-domains also meant more work linking files together across sites. RapidWeaver has something called an Offsite Page which helped with some of this, but having to split my sites up was the biggest PITA for me about the whole process. But knowing about this going in was better than finding out at the end when I tried to upload a single massive site. If you have a small site, the setup for uploading it is as straight forward as iWeb. RW has a built in FTP uploader or you can publish to file and use an FTP client like CyberDuck.
Once I had my site organization in place and had experimented with best practices for recreating each iWeb page type in RW, it was time to begin. I've gotta tell you when I started out I was not a happy camper. I liked the iWeb way of doing things about 70 percent of the time vs 30 percent for RW. At the end of the first week I told myself I have to move on and give up on the past. I was no longer going to be using iWeb and the sooner I embraced the RW way of doing things, the better off I'd be. At this early point it was still hard to see down the road to the end results. No matter what new package you buy, you should try to go with the flow and learn a new way of working. You'll be happier and less frustrated in the end. In my case after having gone through the entire process now, I've ended up changing my opinion. Now that I've gone through the entire process, I like the RapidWeaver way of doing things about 95 percent of the time and 5% for iWeb. That 5 percent is mostly the large site issue I've described. As I began working I was able to reuse much of the text from my iWeb blog in RW. I did have to paste it in as unformatted and reformat it in RW. My pictures were well organized in Aperture which also helped speed the process. One of the things I did is automate some of the tedious repetitious tasks. I created Quickeys macros to do things for me when ever possible. For example I could go to a particular photo page in iWeb and select the first caption. I would then trigger a macro that asked how many captions are on this page. It would then select the caption in iWeb, copy it, switch to RW and paste it in place and repeat XX times. If you know Quickeys or Applescript (I am guessing) there are plenty of opportunities to put it to good use.
RW present a different way of working than you are used to in iWeb and you'll just need to get used to it. What I am describing here would be true of any of the other packages I looked at too. First off it isn't WYSIWYG while you are editing. You are working with fairly basic looking text with few clues as to what the real page looks like. You switch to a preview mode to see what the page looks like in a browser. At first blush iWeb seems to win here. But what I soon realized is RW allows you to mix regular text and pictures together with html snippets right in the same text box. This makes adding counters or badges easy. Plus you can use HTML formatting for things like Titles occurring through your page. Instead of increasing the font size, making the text bold and changing its color, you can simply say this is Heading style 2 or 5 and this happens automatically per the predefined style. Better yet if you change a style everything on that one page or the entire site (your choice) inherits that change. So by working in a non-WYSIWYG mode you gain some long term. advantages over how iWeb works. The same is true with positioning. In iWeb it is fast and easy to place things on a page right down to the pixel. RW just doesn't give you that type of precision and next to splitting my site, layout was my biggest frustration with RW. At least to start. But there is a good reason for this "lack of precision" that may not be apparent until you view the site in a browser. When iWeb came out, you really didn't zoom your browser. iWeb uses Absolute Positioning where it uses anchored boxes for everything, whereas RW uses Relative Positioning. Objects with anchored text or picture boxes like iWeb start having problems if you zoom in or out more than one step. Text starts over flowing other text because the text boxes are anchored by one point. Pages just start looking scary if you try to zoom in or out too much. RW is looking at items relative positions and their relationships with one another. So initially you aren't placing the objects in the same way, it is more like eyeballing things in a way. But when viewed in a web browser you can zoom in or out to your heart's content. So what seems at first like a big disadvantage at first for RW, is actually a HUGE advantage.
This is why you need to go with the flow and try to embrace the new way of working. I mentioned earlier that I wasn't able to find a page type that was equivalent to the iWeb album page. I was able to use a very flexible plug-in for RW called stacks, which allows you to create various single and multi-column or multi-row layouts using empty stacks. You then populate the empty stacks with content, pictures text etc. These pages were not like iWeb albums where you nest the Photo Album Pages in the Album page and they create a skimmable preview and an automatic link to the album. Once I actually started making these new "Album" Pages in RW I realized I was gaining as much or more than I was loosing. The skimmable preview pictures was eyecandy I could live without. Nice touch, not essential. I never liked the way the preview picture shown on the Album page was the first photo in the Photo album. You couldn't change this. Now that I am placing my own photo on the Album page, I could use any picture and make it any size I wanted too. In iWeb the Album Caption was the name of the Photo Page. If this name was too long the caption didn't go to a second line, it got cut off. Any link in RW can have a description added to the link which is what you see in the yellow box when you hover your mouse over the item being linked. I used to hide text boxes links under the pictures on the Albums page for SEO and navigation help. So yes now I have to manually link the Album picture to the Photo Page, but I am no longer creating a hidden text box with a link that I have to remember to move when I add pages to the album. So once again my first impression was wrong. Advantage RW.
Another advantage to RW is any page type can have a sidebar. You can easily add favicons and site logos. You can easily add metadata to any page and customized the names of the path to your pages. The Themes can be more powerful and customizable too. About one week into the process I was begining to really go with the flow and see this new way of working had far more advantages for me than disadvantages.
By the time I finished my new RW site, my iWeb site was looking tired and dated. My biggest and most pleasant surprises were saved until the end. Any kind of SEO was a PITA with iWeb. You had to embed snippets on each page with a code from HaloScan or Google Analytics. Problem was, iWeb erased any such HTML code while you were uploading. So you then had to use a regular expression in the text box ("HaloScan goes here"), upload your site and replace the regular expression with the actual code using a 3rd party tool. Oh and don't do that on any blog page where you are using the built in Apple commenting system because the comments will disappear. I also had problems where the new comment badge would not show up for weeks or months after a comment was made. It was getting so the things I had to do AFTER I uploaded my site to MobileMe were taking longer than uploading the site. Once the site was recreated, it was time to add blog comments, a guestbook, a contact form, Google Analytics, and publish a site map. In my iWeb-influenced mind, I was saving the fussy PITA things for last. I was dead wrong. Unlike what you go through with iWeb, it couldn't have been been easier in RW:
-Blog Comments: Set up an account with the provider. Then I had to go into the page setup in RW for my blog page and click on a popup menu of comment providers & select Discus. If your provider isn't listed you paste some HTML code from the provider into a dialogue box provided by RW for the blog page. In my case it was simpler, just set Discus in the popup menu. Now instead of the iWeb badge showing me new posts (and only when it was in the mood), I now get an email.
-Google Analytics: Set up an account with Google. Go to the Stats area in the RW side bar, click on Configure, paste in your code from Google and you are good to go. You can monitor your Google analytics stats right from within RapidWeaver. (Also works this way for GoSquared Live Stats).
-Guestbook: Same as iWeb. You add a page with an HTML snippet from your Guestbook provider in an iFrame.
-Contact Form: This is a RW page type which masks your email address from the spambots by transferring the information to an invisible and inaccessible page within your site. This page then emails you the information.
-Full Site Search: This doesn't exist in iWeb. You can search your blogs right now, but this is one of the features you lose when MobileMe shuts down. By adding an inexpensive Plug in called RapidSearch Pro I enable full site search. You set up a MySQL server for your site. Host Excellence walked me through the 4-Step Process via a well written Help File. You then control what pages are indexed via your sitemap.xml file. You let RapidSearch Pro index your site and you are good to go.
-SiteMap: There is a simple SiteMap generation feature built into RW 5. There are third party tools for doing this for iWeb. I purchased an inexpensive RW plug in called SiteMap plus that not only generates the sitemap.xml file, it allows you to customize what pages get searched and at what frequency. This ties into what is searched via RapidSearch Pro. This plug-in also generates a visible and customizable sitemap page to help your site's users find their way around. Another bonus of being hosted off Mobile Me is when I went to add my sites to my Google account they had already been indexed. It seemed like they never crawled MobileMe unless you told them you wanted them to look at your site.
Link Checking: This doesn't exist in iWeb. I bought another inexpensive plug-in called Link Inspector for RW. It checks all of your internal and external links and generates a report showing the status of all links. This was just what the doctor ordered for my large site. I will run it periodically to make sure external links are still working and that I haven't broken any internal links.
My site was pretty much wrapped up on Monday August 8th. I just had to add in Blog Comments, Google Analytics, the Guestbook, Full Site Search and the Site Map. I figured I would go public on Tuesday or Wednesday. To my great pleasure these 5 items took all of 2 hours to get set up and working. This was a nice touch after 2 months of hard work.
So there you have it. This is the process I went through converting my site over to RapidWeaver. Your mileage may vary. I am not pushing RapidWeaver for everyone. You have to find what program is the right fit for you. You may find staying with iWeb on a new host is the right fit for you. You need to decide if you can live with the features you lose once you aren't hosted on Mobile Me. For me there was great pain, but in the end there was a lot of gain too. I do like my new site and I feel it will serve me well for years to come. Good luck to all of you in whatever path you choose. Lastly thanks one last time to the helpful folks around here

Thanks Roddy. I agree with your take on some of the other software you mentioned, at least from the perspective of having dabbled with demo versions of some of the others. I will add that with Sandvox I felt a little nervous about it. Kind of almost like the software was a "hobby" effort a la the first gen Apple TV.
I also agree with some of your points regarding RapidWeaver. But now that I've built my rather large (for a hobbyist site) website with it I will have to respectfully disagree about it being at the same level as iWeb, or as you put it: a sideways move. While iWeb can be made to do things it was never originally meant to do, there are many places it simply can't go that RapidWeaver can. I was often hitting the limits of what you could do in iWeb, whereas with RapidWeaver, with one exception, I didn't feel like I was running up against any limits yet. The exception is it's lack of ability to handle large sites well. That was almost the deal breaker for me. I find it unexplainable that a software package with all kinds of add-ons helping you make more ambitious sites, can't handle those same sites in a single file. This was almost a deal-breaker for me. For folks who have small to medium sized iWeb sites this isn't a concern. There are also ways to warehouse images on the server to keep file size down, but this gets more complex than many folks coming from iWeb would want to do. Me splitting my site up the way I did was more work than I wanted to do.I almost bagged the whole thing and was close to just taking the old site down.
Now if we were to fantasize for a minute I can think of a way where I could also say iWeb to RapiWeaver is a sideways move: While I don't think iWeb '09 is the equal to RapidWeaver 5, I'd bet that iWeb 11 or the oft rumored iWeb Pro might have been. I kept hoping that Apple would keep pushing the limits of what iWeb could do and add in some missing features and head down the HTML 5 road.
I will conditionally agree on your saying that the shopping list for RapidWeaver can be substantial. I will qualify that by saying: Depending on what you are doing with it, your shopping list for RapidWeaver can be substantial. With one exception, I do think the base package of RapidWeaver is fairly priced. I think the basic Stacks functionality and a few basic stacks should be part of RapidWeaver. The more esoteric stacks can be pay as you go. When iLife 11 was announced without a an update to iWeb, I did some preliminary pricing and I was rather discouraged at the total. This spring I got more serious about things and repriced RapidWeaver and add-ons. After trying out various themes and plug-ins, I was able to sharpen my pencil and reduce the cost of entry considerably. One of the things that helped is the theme I bought had a couple features built into it. It had a nice lightbox type slideshow for photo pages and animated banners/headers capabilities built in. This saved me the expense of several additional plug-ins. Also while I have a blog, I don't consider myself a blogger. I was able to use the built in blog page and I don't feel limited by it at all. Some of the other ad-ons I bought: such as the link checker, site wide search and a more sophisticated sitemap generator were items I added because I could tell I would want to keep the site going long term. Those 3 plug-ins did that a a low price. I didn't think they needed to be built in.
But everyone's mileage may vary. RapidWeaver or any other web design program isn't right for every iWeb user. It all depends on personal needs, abilities and budgets. I'm just glad I can get back to posting to the site and not recreating it.

PHP DG issue

Hi, I'm trying to make an imageresize-thingy with PHP from Arch-repos, problem is it keeps saying it can't find the function imagecreatefromjpeg(). In order to have that function availiabe PHP need to be configured with --with-gd and --with-jpeg-dir, the one in the repos got it both according to phpinfo(), but I read this on php.net:
it's *important* that --with-jpeg-dir be *before* --with-gd. If it's not, GD won't build with jpeg support as if --with-jpeg-dir had never been specified...
And I checked the PKGBUILD from abs for php, --with-jpeg-dir is specified after --with-dg in it, any dev just wanna just pull it back a few steps in the PKGBUILD and recompile and update the repo, please? ^^

Hah, lol, my bad, didn't think about that. Worked when I did.

Font in all PDF documents is wingdings - in all readers

Hi,
No matter what PDF reader I use and no matter what PDF document I use, this is what the PDF file looks like:
http://i.imgur.com/XppSj.png
This happens in all PDF readers EXCEPT for xpdf, leading me to believe that for some reason poppler is creating some issues and is using wingdings for some reason. I tried reinstalling it, but nothing. I tried installing the ttf-ms-fonts (and relevant packages), nothing. For the record, the PDF is not in cyrillic, and I did even try changing the locale back to en_US.UTF-8. I also do have poppler-data installed.
I also tried other documents (such as those from Google Analytics), the problem persists.
Help?

No, I have not. Firefox text & font options are default. Driver-wise, yes, this is up to date. I should note that in the case of Google Spreadsheets, the text appears briefly before disappearing.
This would have led me to believe it was one of my addons, but the safe mode test dismissed that idea.

Note playing twice

I'm currently using MidiKeys (1.71b) to input notes with Garageband 3. I'm using the virtual instrument Le Synthe (4.1) to generate sounds. The Le Synthe plugin is awesome and generates some wonderful sounds, very similar to the original EMS Synthi. However my problem is, when I play a note within Garageband, using either MidiKeys, the Keyboard with mouse or the musical typing function, the note plays when I press down on the key (as expected) but then plays again on releasing the key.
If I play a note using one of the Garageband instruments, for example the default piano, the note sounds fine, only sounding on key press and not sounding again on release. Therefore I'm not sure if this is a Garageband/plugin issue or an issue with the plugin itself.
Another piece of information, the Le Synthe soft-synth uses Pluggoruntime, just in case that has a bearing on the problem.
Any advice most appreciated.

I am having precisely the same problem and also did not experience this with the last version of iTunes. As opposed to Jagged_Link, however, I am always getting this problem. I have a very fast dual core computer Athlon 64 x2 4400 with 4 GBs of Ram so I don't think that a performace issue is the source of this problem, but I do have many other applications running at the same time (azureus, firefox, beyondTV). This was never an issue with the old version and I think that the problem might have to do with the gapless playback analytics (a problem with the process, perhaps). I will try eliminating all apps other than iTunes to see if there is a change.
By the way, a repair of iTunes, using the original installation file, did not change my situation. I only use MP3s (no AAC) and it be helpful if the other posters can provide this info as well, so that the problem can be identified better.
I hope we can find the problem and get it fixed!

Just installed Arch - what now?

I just finished successfully installing archlinux - What now?
I had a quick peek at the wiki but it wasn't very helpful.
Playing around I couldn't get a single package to install - no x.org or kde. pacman kept coughing up a load of errors - for instance when I tried to do pacman -Syu it told me that it couldn't sync with the belnet mirrors for core, extra and community packages. 'failed to synchronize ... transient resolver error '
This can't be a repo problem because I installed it using internet files.
The fact that I can't even start to use it is frustrating - even grub didn't seem to pick up my windows partition even though the grub list looked fine and I installed it to the right harddrive afaik.
Any help? (especially for getting x.org and kde running! (or any packages installable for that matter!))

First: Welcome to Arch!!
The best point to start is the Beginners Guide in the Wiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners_Guide
By the way: a lot of questions can be answered by searching the wiki.
Regarding your grub problem: Add this to your /boot/grub/menu.lst file:
# Windows
title Windows
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
The string (hd0,0) points to my windows partition, which is the first partition on the first hard drive (counting starts with 0)
You see i'm sure those lines were in the grub boot list, but I will double check.
EDIT: Ah. They were commented out. Fixed this problem
I tried changing the mirrors for pacman to use, but it still made errors:
Warning current locale is invalid; Using default "C" locale
:: synchronising package databases...
error : failed retrieving file 'core.db.tar.gz' from ftp.parrswood.manchester.sch.uk : transcient resolver failure
It says this for all of them, and did for the belnet mirror as well.
When I try to ping google it says unknown host - does that mean that my network isn't set up properly?

Music Playing Twice as Fast and a Crackling Noise

When I first play music on itunes, there weren't any problems at all. Once my CPU usage goes up (like when i play a game) the music plays twice as fast and theres a crackling every second (1 second music then 1 second crackling noise ). Once I lower my cpu usage, the music returns back to normal.
I didnt have this problem with the previous version of itunes though.

Problem with redirection and google analytics

Hello,
I created my professional website with iweb and bought a domain name for it can be simplest to remember, so this professional domain name (www.julienchabot.com) redirect to the iweb url (web.mac.com/julienchabot/iweb/com/home.html). Now I subscribed to Google Analytics to know the statistics of my website, but it seems that when people visit www.julienchabot.com, google analytics doesn't register any visit on my website, it only registers something when the iweb url (web.mac.com/julienchabot...) is visited, so only when I visit my website as a webmaster because I'm the only one to know this url.
So it's very frustrating for I can't know the statistics even if Google analytics seems to provide fantastics results !!!
However, when we're on julienchabot.com and that we read the source code, the correct code and iweb url appear on the top of the window... Does the problem come from the redirection company I subscribed to ?
Has someone a solution to this problem ?
Thank you very much for your help !!
Julien

Dear Gretsch,
Thank you for this website, I just registered but unfortunately the problem is still the same ! I think it's due to the redirect company I subscribed to, they use "frames" for the redirection.
Do you use frames as well for your website ? StatCounter asks if it's the case before providing the code and I replied "yes", they specify to put the code in the main page where there's not the "frame" code, but I don't know where this "frame" code is written, so I put the StatCounter code on the homepage one, but it's the same than with Google.
Would you mind provide me the url of your website for I can compare your code to mine ?
Thank you very much for your help !
Julien

Latest version of Firefox is having problems loading sites, it tries to load to Google Analytics. No error messages, just a page that won't load. How do I stop this?

Latest version of Firefox is having problems loading some sites, it tries to load and then gets taken over trying to load Google Analytics. No error messages, just a page that won't load. How do I get rid of this, it is a "pain in the neck"
== URL of affected sites ==
http://

I just spent 3 days with this issue as well. I finally fixed it by reluctantly adding yet another add-on called ADBLOCK
I was able to selectively block google-analytics. Now pages that weren't loading before are now loading.
eg vimeo.com starbucks.com & other random sites.
This was a tough one to fix because there is NO ERROR MESSAGE..page just shows it's loading...forever..& the bottom of my browser says 'waiting for google analytics'. I finally figured out google analytics is the culprit. Ironically, some help pages in trying to find a fix wouldn't load for me due to google analytics arghhh!
Im on a macbookpro & Safari worked fine for these same sites. It was just Firefox. I nearly switched back to Safari because of this stupid issue.
I'm wondering if this was caused by recent firefox 'updates'...

Problem with an Extended Analytics Connexion

Hello all,
After testing an Extended Analytics connexion (where everything was okay), I wanted to deploy it.
I obtained this message : Updating UDF entry in the UDF configuration file
You are trying to modify a connection created from another platform
Hide detail
Cartesis.InformationDelivery.AnalyticsUdfAdminService.Contract.UdfEntryPlatformMismatchException
---> Exception of type 'Cartesis.InformationDelivery.AnalyticsUdfAdminService.Contract.UdfEntryPlatformMismatchException' was thrown.
This happened after trying to re-deploy this connexion without changing any parameter.
The tests still run okay but the status is down.
Does somebody know how to get a working connection from this message?
Thank you.

Hello half_brit,
we have the same problem, did you solve it?
if, yes, can you help us and tell the solution?
Thank you in advance for you answer.
