BI Publisher can not establish connection to SQL Server.

Hi,
We are trying to create a connection from BI Publisher to SQL Server database. However, we are getting a message 'Could not establish connection'. We tried to google to find a solution.
We are not sure what the problem is. We can ping to the SQL Server machine from the BI Application Server.
Apparently it looks like the required JDBC Driver files are missing. We are using OBIEE version 11.1.1.3.0 and 11.1.1.6.0. How do we know whether or not we have the correct JDBC driver file? And also, where we should copy the JDBC driver/jar files to.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Manoj.

Hi Parham,
Thanks for your reply.
The "Use System User" check box is disabled. The default value for 'Database Driver Class' is "hyperion.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver". Should that be correct?
We have SQL Server 2012 but 'Driver Type' shows only two versions of SQL Server - 2005 and 2008.
Folder 'C:\oracle\product\11.1.1\obiee11\wlserver_10.3\server\lib' contains three .dll files: "64sqljdbc.dll", "x64sqljdbc.dll" and "sqljdbc.dll". And "wlsqlserver.jar" is present too in the same folder.
Any pointers, please?
Thanks,
Manoj.

  • Can not establish connection Oracle DB

    Hi PI Gurus,
    We have a sender JDBC CC, its working absolutely fine in PI dev.
    when I check this CC in PI Qality it is giving me error as:
    Error during database connection to the database URL 'jdbc:oracle:thin:@204.145.15.141:1521:PERM' using the JDBC driver 'oracle.jdbc.driver.Oracledriver': 'com.sap.aii.adapter.jdbc.sql.DriverManagerException: Can not establish connection:: SAPClassNotFoundException: oracle.jdbc.driver.Oracledriver'
    It clearly says that driver is not installed, thats why connection is not getting established. Our BASIS team installed the drivers twice copied from Dev systems, still the same error is coming.
    Can anyone throw some light on this, is any problem with the version?
    Thanks,
    Krishna

    Hi Krishna,
    Can you check two things:
    1. whether the host name of the jdbc server u are tryin to access is present in the PI Quality system hosts file
    2. Whether connectivity port is correctly opened with the jdbc server, i.e connectivity exists and is tested.

  • Tns_alias: ODI can not establish connection to DB with tns_alias

    Hello everyone
    I have a question again.
    Problem:
    ODI can not establish connection to DB with <tns_alias>
    Envirionment:
    there is remote computer with Oracle DB (tns_alias) (connection works - tested)
    there is another remote computer with Oracle DB (sid)
    there is computer with ODI with (tnsnames.ora -> "...CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME = testdbx....")
    Scenario:
    I create physical schema (Oracle -> Insert Data server) and fill in all fields a press "Test" button and connection successful.
    I press "apply", ODI should connect to remote computer for getting information.
    - Remote computer with SID getting it correctly.
    - Remote computer with tns_alias throws exceptin "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: t2cGetCharSet" and shows empty blank that means information was not downloaded to ODI.
    Question:
    Could You generate some ideas why ODI can not download information?
    Is it settings ODI problem?
    Is it DB problem?
    Best regards.
    Leonid.

    I have found problem!
    file ojdbc14.jar was different for ODI and ODB. (different size and date)
    I have copied ojdbc14.jar from ODB to ODI.
    Now it works.
    So. Thanks for trying to help me.
    It was not simple to find problem.
    Remember this case. It's able to help You in future.
    Best regards!

  • Failed to Establish connection with SQL Server

    hi I have configured odbc settings and when i connect the sql from essbase i got the error :Failed to Establish connection with SQL Server .please hepl me on this
    and please give me step by step process for how to resolve thi issue.and give me detail step by step from starting onwards.
    appreciate your Help,
    Thank u
    Subbu.

    Steps:
    1. Test database connection from Essbase server through SQL Command. This gives you whether you are able to connect to Database from Essbase server.
    2. Create ODBC Connection: System DSN>Add>Select correct driver (Oracle in ...) >give Datasource (any name), Description (Any), TNS Service Name (user SID name), User name (Database user name)
    3. Test Connection. if successful, you can use this ODBC to get the data.
    4. Open rules file, go to FILE>Open SQL
    5. Provide Essbase server, Application, Database names
    6. Select SQL Data Source from the list (ODBC defined in step2)
    7. Enter tested SQL Query(which is tested at SQL command or "sysdate from dual" ) in select box. NOTE: Remove select word from query. You can ignore from and where clauses, all you can include in select block.
    8.Click OK/Reteive data

  • *DAC Server connection "Error - can't establish connection to DAW Server"

    Hi there,
    I'm experiencing trouble with the Oracle Data Warehouse Administration Console (DAC) server connection hanging in my Oracle BI Apps 7.9.6 install.
    Architecture*
    Applications Server - Machine A (Oracle Connection Services 10g R2 + Informatica 8.6.0 & HotFix 4.0 + DAC 10.1.3.4.1 services) = Linux RHEL 64-bit
    Database Server - Machine B (Oracle BI Apps Data Warehouse OBAW + DAC Repository + Informatica Repository) = Linux RHEL 64-bit
    Client - Machine C (BI Apps 7.9.6 + Informatica 8.6.0 & HotFix 4.0 client + DAC 10.1.3.4.1 client) = Windows x86 32-bit)
    Issue*
    After successfully following the Oracle Business Intelligence Applications Installation Guide for Informatica PowerCenter Users Version 7.9.6 (E14217-01) documentation I get to section 4.13 Configuring the DAC Server and I cannot create a successful connection to the DAC Server from the Data Warehouse Administration Console on my client machine.
    I can confirm that I have started the DAC services on the Linux server with the . ./startserver.sh command. The icon on the Data Warehouse Administration Console turns Orange (Idle), but when I double click the icon a message box appears with the title "Server Log" but seems to hang.
    If I stop the DAC services on the Linux server with the . ./stopserver.sh command the Server Log message box closes and a new message box appears stating:
    *"Error: can't establish connection to DAW Server!"*
    I have tried using the IP address and the actual server name as defined in the Hosts file as the DAC Server Host in the DAC System Properties but I receive the same error message.
    I can also confirm that I ran the serverSetupPrompt.sh shell script successto configure the connection between the DAC Server and the DAC Repository.
    Any suggestions or help greatly appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Gary.

    Hi Gary,
    If you have the Orange icon then your client is connected to the DAC server. (If it's red then it's not, and if it's green it's connected and an execution plan is running).
    If you have never run any DAC jobs (and if you're just doing the installation then you won't have I guess) then your log will be blank and you'll just get a blank log window.
    Have you got any evidence that your DAC server isn't running other than the Log won't download properly?
    Obviously if you stop the DAC server then you're going to get an error that the client can't connect to the server :-D
    If I were you I'd continue with the installation guide, as it sounds like things are working as they should.
    BTW don't forget to mark this and other responses to your posts as helpful/correct as appropriate :)

  • Establishing connection to SQL server suddenly failed

    Hi,

    1. Make sure SQL Server Service is running
    2. If a named instance, make sure SQL Server browser service is running
    3. Make sure SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections
    4. Examine the SQL Server error log for messages confirming that SQL is listening on the expected network interfaces and ports
    5. Test server connectivity with PING from the client machine
    6. Test port connectivity using TELNET or PowerShell to the server and port (from step 4) from the client machine.  For example
    a. TELNET <server-name> 1433
    b. PowerShell: 1433 | % { echo ((new-object Net.Sockets.TcpClient).Connect("YourServerName",$_)) "server listening on TCP port $_" }
    7. Check firewall settings if step 5 or 6 connectivity test fails

  • Can not see all the SQL server views

    My SQL Server 2005 (SP2 STD)  has about 1000 views. When I created a Crystal Report using Crystal Report 10, I can only see about 225 views are listed in Database Expert. Here is the procedure to reproduce the problem:
    1. Create a new Crystal Report
    2. Create a new connection using ODBC RDO
    3. Drill into DSN Name->DB Name->dbo->Views. Only the first 200 or so views in alphabetical order are listed on Available Data Sources on the left pane.
    I am using SQL authentication and sa account to connect to SQL. So security should not be the problem. I can also use Access 2003 linked table to see all the views in my SQL server.
    Is there a restriction on how many views can be listed in Crystal Data Source? Is there another way to add data source to Report without using Database Expert?
    Thanks in advance!

    Youdao,
    There is a default limit of 8000 objects that Crystal will see in the database.
    I would suggest right clicking on your datasource and selecting Options. In the Data Explorer uncheck Tables and Stored Procedures leaving Views selected > press OK > then right click again and refresh.
    If the limit was being reached then you should now see at least more Views if not all.
    The default limit can be edited in the Registry (*Always recommended to back up the registry before editing).
    The key is HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Crystal Decisions or Business Objects > (version number) > Crystal Reports > Fetch options > NTablesMax

  • Cannot establish connection with SQL server from SQL developer

    Hi, I recently downloaded SQL Developer version 3.0.04 and am trying to establish a connection to a remote SQL server. The database was created on this server by someone who is no longer working on the project. I have been given the username, password and server name. Is there another piece of information I am missing? I keep receiving the error:
    Status: Failure-Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection.

    Check out the SQL Server network configuration. When instances are used the port on which the SQL Server is listening on might be different. Use the networking utility from the SQL Server and check out the SQL Server network details.

  • Can't remote connect to sql server

    I have SQL Sever 2008 R2 on the cluster environment
    cluster server name is A
    Cluster Node 1 name is A1 (current active one)
    Cluster Node2 name is A2
    SQL Server name is Ab, default instance, tcp/ip port 1433
    I am not able to remote connect to the server. I tried A, A1, Ab and their corresponding IP address, not of them works. Should I change to the SQL Server name to match with the cluster server name? Thanks in advance!

    Dont have to change the sql server name.
    In a standalone machine when you have a default instance, the sql server name is indeed the server name. But in cluster its the network name that is associated with the virtual ip for SQL.
    If you try with either SQL Server Network Name or IP address it should work. If it doesnt work try forcing TCP protocol and the port number in connection and see.
