BI Publisher 11g has terrible monitoring capability.

I think all I need to post is the following line and people will know what I'm talking about:
weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)' has been busy for "703" seconds working on the request "weblogic.servlet.internal.ServletRequestImpl@376d9e05[
The data query finishes in about ten seconds, but this error repeats endlessly in the logs, with no other indication of what's going on. Did the query finish? Has the fetch phase begun? WTF are you doing BIP?
Do you even use your own products, Oracle? So much code and it amounts to a pile of garbage.
Once again I'm logging off in the middle of my report run, pissed off and hating Oracle. By the way, I tell everyone at my company how much I hate working with your products. It's not just BI Publisher either, we all hate 11i as well. Thank you.

Any suggestion?

Parameter is not working in HTTP( XML FEED) dataset in bi publisher 11g

Hi,
I have used parameter in BI Publisher 10g for HTTP(XML Feed) dataset to have dynamic url which worked by using ${p_url} where p_url is the parameter.
The same procedure when I use in BI Publisher 11g is not working.It does not consider the parameter ${p_url} and throws the following exception
*oracle.xdo.dataengine.datasource.plugin.DataAccessException: java.lang.Exception: java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: ${p_url}*
Has anyone faced this issue?
Please let me know if am doing something incorrect here.
Thanks &Regards,
Balaji

Thanks for your reply.
In BI Publisher 10 g we are using it this way ${p_url}.
p_url is the parameter which gives us the entire URL for the XML feed.
e.g. p_url=http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/topstories
The p_url takes the entire url.
Please let me know if this can be done the same way in 11g.
Thanks,
Balaji

Notify an application user that an asynchronous call of a bi publisher report has been completed

Hi experts,
We have an ADF application (11g) from where we call BI Publisher (11g) reports by using bi publisher web services.
I have the following 2 requirements:
Run the reports asynchronously
Notify each user that the report which has been asynchronously called has been completed.
My thought was to use the scheduleReport web service which is asynchronous by default.
My problem is how to notify only the specific user using "http notification" that the report is ready.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/bi.1111/e22259/reporttriggers.htm#BIPDV008
Can you please help me on this?

I've converted the Blob to a Clob but still can't get it to appear in the BI Report. It shows up in the XML file as a bunch of text character, but in the report if I use the fo: instructions it remains blank, and if I don't, it shows the same text data that is in the XML file.
Perhaps BI Reports aren't meant to show database images? Is there another tool I can use instead (data is in APEX 4.0) 11g.?

Oracle BI Publisher 11g - Known Data Model Limitations

Hi
I'm new to BI Publisher 11g. I'm attempting to find out what the known limitations of BI Publisher 11g are.
In particular, I would like to know the maximum number of queries allowed per data model or if a report may be based on multiple data models.
Scenario:_
My organization requires an electronic reporting book (PDF document) effectively consisting of *40-50* data tables and graphs. Someone has sold the idea to IT and the business that BI Publisher as the tool that deliver this type of functionality. Having used the tool now for the last couple of days, it's starting to look it's not the case.
How do i achieve my ultimate goal of combining disparate report output into 1 huge document?
Do I develop each reporting section as a separate data model/report pairs outputting XML files and then combine all XML files into 1 target document?
If anyone can please give me some advice on how to go about this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Greg

This is related to browser, try it in some other browser.or else check ur bi publisher settings and data source configurations. Mostly his wil happen if u changed some thing in blaf rich plus.css changes

Problem in Oracle BI Publisher 11g

Hi guru,
After installing only Oracle BI publisher 11g,when i start the "http://ppso3411-9b8569:9704/xmlpserver"...i am getting this error...
****Error 404--Not Found****
****From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:****
****10.4.5 404 Not Found****
****The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.****
****If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead.

Publisher 11g and Identity Asserter

How do you integrate publisher 11g with a custom weblogic identity asserter? From what I have been told so far, integration cannot be performed via the publisher administrative interfaces. It must be performed via configuration files on the server. There is no documentation on this subject yet. Has anyone performed the configuration that would be willing to share their experiences and configurations?
FYI, any attempt to utilize the identity asserter in the default publisher configuration will result in java errors in the server log and a 500 error in the browser.

Any security configuration must be under certified products so you can be confident they should work 100%. Otherwise
any issues you find under NOT certified products may not work and Oracle Support will not be able to help you.
As you describe the configuration you are trying to set is not certified and therefore the issues you find will probably
never be resolved.

Not able to view any report in BI Publisher 11g

Hello All
I have installed BI Publisher 11g in Intel Solaris 10. I started of from the scratch, created a Data Model, then created a Report. but now I am not able to view the report. Upon clicking the report name or Open it logs me out.
I am logged in as user, weblogic the default user created while installation.
Please help
Ash

Hi Rony,
You may have created the report initially with Web Layout only - therefore there will no paper layout.
To 'get' the paper layout back, select your Report module name from the Builder and then select Tools-->Report Wizard. Select 'Create both web and Paper Layout' and then go through the various wizard steps.
Best of Luck.

John

Why has my monitor suddenly begun to have a moiré pattern all over – it is even showing up on my icons on the dock? It appears to be very thin bright green vertical lines. I have a 2008 iMac which is running 10.6.8. What does this mean?

Why has my monitor suddenly begun to have a moiré pattern all over – it is even showing up on my icons on the dock? It appears to be very thin bright green vertical lines. I have a 2007 iMac which is running 10.6.8. What does this mean? I've attached some screen shots below.
Also experiencing some funky issues with my wireless keyboard. With new batteries, it will just stop functioning. Certain keys intermittently won't work. Also the fans go on as soon as I turn the computer on - some times they stay on and sometimes they don't. Ever since upgrading the operating system - I've been having many issues with this iMac. Not happy. Any answers out there?

Thanks for your reply LexSchellings, There is no disc in the drive and I went through the suggestions you put forward on the phone with Apple support without any luck. I can put a disc in but it pops straight back out again without registering on finder.
The idea of using an external drive was to enable me to avoid the cost and loss of productivity whilst machine in repair... if I have to take it in to get the old drive removed than I might as well have a new internal drive put in, although I do worry about the reliability of these apple drives given my experience with this one coupled with my limited online research ... on line forums seem to be full of people with the same problem (although perhaps searching such forums is bound to make it seem a common problem as users with perfectly working machines are less likely to post (?)) Your reply suggests that no external drive will work whilst the existing drive is in place.
As a postscript: I do realise that this is a user forum ...my secondary question was asking if anyone knows how to put forward a case/complaint to Apple... I can't find a link on the support page that would enable me to do so and I was wondering if anyone on this user forum had any ideas/experience..

Hi Carlos,
Are you still experiencing this problem?
I do not see this on my installation on Windows7 64 bit running in English.
I also set the BI Publisher UI language and Report Locale to Spanish and all three output types:
Interactive, HTML and PDF render correctly.
When you say that the pivot table doesn't show any values higher than 1.000.000 ... what does it show instead?
How do the other sample reports look for you?
Mike

Isn't there a way for you to do this via a Package/Procedure versus having multiple queries?
Per the BI Publisher guide,
Following are recommended guidelines for building data models:
Reduce the number of data sets or queries in your data model as much as possible. In general, the fewer data sets and queries you have, the faster your data model will run. While multiquery data models are often easier to understand, single-query data models tend to execute more quickly. It is important to understand that in parent-child queries, for every parent, the child query is executed.
You should only use multiquery data models in the following scenarios:
To perform functions that the query type, such as a SQL query, does not support directly.
To support complex views (for example, distributed queries or GROUP BY queries).
To simulate a view when you do not have or want to use a view.

Does BI Publisher 11g Support Restful Web Services as Data Set

Hi,
Could you tell me if BI Publisher 11g supports the REST API or is SOAP based API required for web services defined as data sets.
Thanks in advance,
Jean

There are External API's which only do JSON outputs. Can this be integrated into a Report? If not, Is there a Enhacement to Add RESTful returning JSON or XML for a Dataset?

Is BI Publisher 11g compatible with CC&B 2.3.1

Dear All,
Is BI Publisher 11g compatible with CC&B 2.3.1.
In the Oracle support and forums, its mentioned that the BI Publisher 10g can be integrated with CC&B 2.3.1 and the sample reports provided with the application can be used for online bill display etc. Can BIP 11g version be used for the same. Please advice.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Thanks,

Setting BI Publisher 11g in cluster environments

Hi All,
We are trying to set up BI Publisher 11g (as part of obiee11g) in cluster env. following the below doc:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/core.1111/e10106/bi.htm#ASHIA5931
But it is little confusing. in the below table there are so many paths.
Table 15-4 Contents of BI EE Shared Storage
Do we need to create all these paths on a shared location?
for, example,
ORACLE_BASE/admin/domain_name/cluster_name/tlogs
What does ORACLE_BASE refer to? is it the shared path location?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
I have a similar question.
We have both BI Publisher 11g and are using EBS R12.
When I create a report in BI 11g, can I download the data model and the layout into files so that I can upload them in the R12 application to be used there?
What are the steps to do that (for the download part)?
thanks
Ronny

Oracle BI Publisher 11g Enterprise

Kelly, I believe you said in another thread "Your PLM4P license includes a free limited use license for BI Publisher".
So, we can download Oracle BI Publisher 11g Enterprise and hook it up to PLM4P for free?
And what is meant when you say 'limited use"?
Thanks,
Trey

That's correct, PLM4P includes a limited use license for BI Publisher. The limited use means you can only use it to report from the core PLM4P database, once you need it for different data you will need to purchase licenses. You can reach out to your sales rep for the exact license verbiage and restrictions. We offer out of the box reports in the extensibility pack, instructions and details can be found in the EP 3.5 report guide.
