BI Publisher Using BI Server Security

I have setup BI Publisher to use BI Server security which works well, I can even see the Admin Tab ;-)
My problem is that I can no longer access the Security>Roles and Permissions Tab. I get a HTTP 500 error.
Has anyone else come across this problem?
Thanks,
Matt

i managed to resolve with the help of this thread
Re: BI publisher security mged by OBIEE can't access role (500 internal err
Basically the SA System is the key.

    HELP!!!

    I solved this by turning off passive mode. I was using iWeb and Rapid Weaver for creating websites and had the same problem. Now they both work fine on the transfer. Hope this helps.

  • INTEGRATING PUBLISHER WITH OBI EE SECURITY USING LDAP

    Hi !
    Just learned about how integrating BI Publisher with OBI EE Security had to be set. (SA SYSTEM blah blah blah)
    My question is : what if my OBI EE security is already based on LDAP server ? How do I manually insert user logon in SA_USER as I'm supposed to do ? No way...any turnaround ? Should I base my BI PUB security on the LDAP server ?
    Thanks in advance
    Yannis

    Hi,
    I too have the same question.
    Could you please let us know whether using "Oracle BI server" security model in BIP would address the SSO between Oracle BI and BI Publisher when BI uses LDAP authentication?
    Also I am facing some issues in setting up BI security in BIP.
    The issue is that, when logged into BIP as Administartor, Roles and Permissions tab of Admin displays only two roles namely "Administrator" and "XMLP_TEMPLATE_ONLINE".
    SA subject area is also set.
    Could you please let me know your thoughts on the same?
    Thanks in Advance.

  • Use Lion Server to set up security in Web Sharing

    Can I use Lion Server to set up security in Web Sharing?
    I want a password prompt to appear when someone comes to look at my Web Sharing files.
    I have tried to do this manually in Snow Leopard and Lion, and am considering buying Lion Server just for this one purpose.
    Does the admin GUI in Lion Server have an option that allows you to set up a password prompt for folks that look at my Web Sharing files?
    THanks.
    mac

    Miracles do happen.
    Because I just bought Lion Server, I was able to get a guy from the Apple Server support group on the phone, for a long time, and he helped me set this up using the Server app and the Server Admin app.
    Now I have a password prompt on my Web Sharing files.
    It's an incredible relief to have this working.
    Thanks for the responses.

  • Current Security Context Not Trusted When Using Linked Server From ABAP

    Hello,
    I am experiencing a head-scratcher of a problem when trying to use a Linked Server connection to query a remote SQL Server database from our R/3 system.  We have had this working just fine for some time, but after migrating to new hardware and upgrading OS, DBMS, and R/3, now we are running into problems.
    The target database is a named instance on SQL Server 2000 SP3, Windows 2000 Server.  The original source R/3 system was 4.7x2.00, also on SQL Server 2000 (SP4), Windows 2000 Server.  I had been using a Linked Server defined via SQL Enterprise Manager (actually defined when the source was on SQL Server 7), which called an alias defined with the Client Network Utility that pointed to the remote named instance.  This alias and Linked Server worked great for several years.
    Now we have migrated our R/3 system onto new hardware, running Windows Server 2003 SP1 and SQL Server 2005 SP1.  The application itself has been upgraded to ECC 6.0.  I performed the migration with a homogeneous system copy, and everything has worked just fine.  I redefined the Linked Server on the new SQL 2005 installation, this time avoiding the alias and referencing the remote named instance directly, and it tests out just fine using queries from SQL Management Studio.  It also tests fine with OSQL called from the R/3 server console, both when logged on as SAPServiceSID with a trusted connection, and with a SQL login as the schema owner (i.e., 'sid' in lowercase).  From outside of R/3, I cannot make it fail.  It works perfectly.
    That all changes when I try to use the Linked Server within an ABAP application, however.  The basic code in use is
    EXEC SQL.
       SET XACT_ABORT ON
       DELETE FROM [SERVER\INSTANCE].DATABASE.dbo.TABLE
    ENDEXEC.
    The only thing different about this code from that before the upgrade/migration is the reference to [SERVER\INSTANCE] which previously used the alias of just SERVER.
    The program short dumps with runtime error DBIF_DSQL2_SQL_ERROR, exception CX_SY_NATIVE_SQL_ERROR.  The database error code is 15274, and the error text is "Access to the remote server is denied because the current security context is not trusted."
    I have set the "trustworthy" property on the R/3 database, I have ensured SAPServiceSID is a member of the sysadmin SQL role, I've even made it a member of the local Administrators group on both source and target servers, and I've done the same with the SQL Server service account (it uses a domain account).  I have configured the Distributed Transaction Coordinator on the source (Win2003) system per Microsoft KB 839279 (this fixed problems with remote queries coming the other way from the SQL2000 system), and I've upgraded the system stored procedures on the target (SQL2000) system according to MS KB 906954.  I also tried making the schema user a member of the sysadmin role, but naturally that was disastrous, resulting in an instant R/3 crash (don't try this in production!), so I set it back the way it was (default).
    What's really strange is no matter how I try this from outside the R/3 system, it works perfectly, but from within R/3 it does not.  A search of SAP Notes, SDN forums, SAPFANS, Microsoft's KnowledgeBase, and MSDN Forums has not yielded quite the same problem (although that did lead me to learning about the "trustworthy" database property).
    Any insight someone could offer on this thorny problem would be most appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Matt

    Good news! We have got it to work. However, we did it in something of
    a backwards way, and I'm sure you'll laugh when you see how it was done. Also, the solution depends upon the fact that the remote server is still using SQL Server 2000, and so doesn't have quite so many restrictions placed upon it for distributed transactions and Linked Servers as SQL Server 2005 now does.
    At the heart of the solution is the fact that the Linked Server coming FROM the remote server TO our SAP system works fine. Finally, coupled with the knowledge that using DBCON on the SAP side to the remote server also does actually provide a connection (see Notes 323151 and 738371), we set up a roundabout way of achieving our goal. In essence, from ABAP, we set up the DBCON connection to the remote server, at which point all the Native SQL commands execute in the context of the remote server. From within that connection, we
    reference the tables in SAP via the Linked Server defined on the remote
    server, as if SAP were the remote server, selecting data from SAP and inserting it into the remote (but apparently local to this connection) tables.
    So, to spell it out, we define a Linked Server on the remote server pointing back to the SAP server as SAPSERV, with a SQL login mapping defined on the remote system pointing back to a SQL login in the SAP database. We also define a connection to the remote server from SAP using DBCON, using that remote SQL login for authentication.
    Then, in our ABAP code, we simply do something along the lines of
    exec sql.
       set connection 'REMOTE'
    endexec.
    exec sql.
       connect to 'REMOTE'
    endexec.
    exec sql.
       insert into REMOTE_TABLE
          select * from SAPSERV.SID.sid.SAP_TABLE
    endexec.
    exec sql.
       commit
    endexec.
    exec sql.
       disconnect 'REMOTE'
    endexec.
    This is, of course, a test program, but it demonstrated that it worked,
    and we were able to see that entries were appropriately deleted and inserted in the remote server's table. The actual program for use is a little more complex, in that there are about four different operations at different times, and we had to resolve the fact that the temp table SAP_TABLE was being held in a lock by our program, resulting in a deadly embrace, but our developer was able to work that out, and all is now well.
    I don't know if this solution will have applicability to any other customers, but it works for us, for now.
    SAPSERV, REMOTE, REMOTE_TABLE, and SAP_TABLE are, of course, placeholder names, not the actual server or table names, so as not to confuse anyone.

  • Using SQL Server credentials with Secure Store Target Application for Data Connection in Dashboard Designer

    [Using SharePoint 2013 Enterprise SP1]
    I would like to use SQL Server credentials in a Secure Store Target Application, and
    this page makes it look like it's possible but when I attempt to use the new Target Application ID as authentication for a Data Connection in Dashboard Designer, I get a generic "Unable to access data source" with no error logged in SQL Server
    logs.
    I am able to use a Target Application with AD credentials to access the SQL db without a problem. Suggestions?

    Hi,
    1. Make sure that the credential is set to
    Secure Store Target Application. Navigate to the Central Administration. Click on the
    Application Management. Click on the Manage Service Applications. Click on the
    Secure Store Service Application. Select the application ID and from the ECB menu click on the
    Set Credentials. Enter the Credential Owner, Windows User Name and the
    Windows Password.
    2. Make sure that in the Dashboard Designer “Use a stored account” is selected in the “Authentication” and the proper application ID is mentioned.

  • BI Publisher configured with BI Server Security not working for the admins.

    Hello Everyone,
    I have configured the BI publisher to work with the BI server security. Everything is working well with the exception that all users part of the BI Server "Administrators" group are unable to login and get the following error message (message displayed below). If a user is removed from the "Administrators" group then they are able to access the BI Publisher. As indicated everything else is working for exemple all users part of the 'XMLP_Admin' group all have access to the "ADMIN" tab in BI Publisher. The issue seems to be limited to the users part of the BI Server "Administrators" group.
    - Has anyone else ever had this issue?
    - Is this a normal behaviour of BI Publisher?
    - Or the security groups for the BI Server and BI Publisher conflicting?
    Thanks in advance for everyone's help.
    Best regards,

    Thanks Madan for your help.
    The group XMLP_Admin was already created and working. The conflict was with security groups outside BI Publisher. What I ended up doing was recreating the principals.xml and security.xml files and rsetting the roles and permissions. Surprisingly that fixed my problem.

    This is to do with the .htaccess file on your server.
    You either need to deal with this and open it with an html editor or change your web host.
    Do a search of this forum and there are plenty of posts that relate to parse error and .htaccess pages.  Have a look on the right hand side of this post and you will see similar ones like yours.

  • Does anyone know how to publish a site using Lion server.

    I have made a web site using I web and was trying to publish it using FTP and lion server but was quite sure were to find the server address and other required info.
    If anyone can help it'd be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    You shouldn't need to use ftp to publish a site when using a server, this is the whole point, that you are not uploading anywhere external, but are hosting yourself on a dedicated computer running a server.
    This is not really the place to ask.  There should be more forums here that are specially dedicated to Lion server issues.
    Try looking at the pages on the Apple site under info on Lion server and there should be a user manual for you to look at for Lion sever.  Try looking at this.
    This is an iWeb forum so not really the right place to ask questions regarding server issues.

  • Publish iCal Calendar using Tiger Server

    I've been searching for a simple way to publish iCal calendars using Tiger Server. Here is what I need to do:
    I need one user to be able to publish multiple "studio schedule" calendars to the Tiger server...and I need all the regular users in the studio to be able to subscribe to it so that they can see what work they have scheduled for the day. The regular users do NOT need to be able to make changes to the calendar...they only need to see it. (and print it if needed) Only the studio manager needs to be able to see and edit the published calendar.
    I called Apple support for help on this one and they told me they would have to charge me $695 just for me to be able to get help on this....which surprised me because I'm just trying to use their software to do something it is supposed to be able to do! LOL The only other suggestion he could give was for me to look to the discussion groups here for help....so here I am!
    HELP!

    The first thing you need to do is set up WebDAV on the Server and share a directory. If you need instructions on how to that just follow this thread.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2793917#2793917
    Once you've set up a shared directory you just publish the calendar to it from within iCal.
    To do that, set up a calendar, select it and then select 'Publish' under the 'Calendar' menu. In the dialog box that opens up give the calendar a name without spaces. Select 'Publish on: a Private Server'.
    In the field for 'Base URL:' fill-in the complete url to the server directory you set up previously using the WebDAV instructions. For example, if you set up a directory on the server called 'calendars' and the URL of the server is www.example.com you would put in 'Base URL: http://www.example.com/calendars'.
    Now enter the 'Login' name and 'Password' for an account that has access to the shared directory as you've set it up using the WebDAV instructions.
    Select the other options you want to enable in the dialog box and then click on 'Publish'. Now the calendar is published and available for others to subscribe to.
    Now to subscribe to the calendar, just select 'Subscribe' under the 'Calendar' menu in iCal and enter the URL for the calendar. Using the example from above you would enter 'webcal://www.example.com/calendars/StudioWork.ics' for a calendar that was named 'StudioWork'.
    You can also email the URL for the published calendar by selecting it in iCal and selecting 'Send Publish Email...' under the 'Calendar' menu in iCal.

  • The event logging service encountered an error while processing an incoming event published from Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing.

    Description:
    The event logging service encountered an error while processing an incoming event published from Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing.
    Servers running Windows Server 2008 that also installed the updates are not experiencing the problem.  It looks like one of the updates may have introduced this problem with Server 2008 R2.

    ...Did you for sure confirm that:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/MS15-001
    is the cause?
    I did.  I had a VM that was not experiencing the problem.  I took a snapshot and tested the patches one by one.  Installing only KB3023266 immediately caused the issue to occur (after reboot).  A similar process was used to confirm that
    installing KB2675611 resolved the problem.
    Note that I found the installation of KB2675611 is usually quick, but it took several hours hours to install on some of our systems.  We had installed this patch a few months ago on a couple of servers and it was always quick to install.  But,
    it seems like installing it on a symptomatic system can cause it to take a long time.

  • OBI publisher on Jboss Server AS7 [login failed]

    Hi, I've deployed OBI publisher on Jboss Server AS7 but when i try to authenticate with Administrator/Administrator the response is login failed. Thanks for your support i'm blocked

    Thank you for the replies and I am trying to answer the questions in your replies here
    Kranthi : To open in online mode,the BI server should be up so it accepts the password and then directs you to the layout. That is the case, I have OBI server up running and accept login from Answers page.
    Kranthi: first you should go through about offline/online modes before proceeding further.You can go through this from the BI answers user guide. The BI Answers user guide I found is OBI Answers, Delivers, and Interactive Dashboards User Guide, B31767-01 for Version 10.1.3.2. I could not find info for security management or login/password. Can you be more specific?
    Srinivas Malyala: Cross check are you accessing Linux Box rpd on WindowsWhich credentials are you using LDAP or DB etc
    Have you properly configured DSN to access Linux RPD. >
    I am not sure how OBI RPD authenticate logins. I am not using LDAP. I do not have a user Administrator in my Oracle database. Thus it does not appear authenticated with DB.
    I have a DSN configured on the window box, and be able to import database objects.
    Srinivas Malyala: Can you update us exact error message. The only message is "Logon failed." Too bad I cannot attach a file to show the message box. But you can get the same message when you login to the window Admin Tool online or offline with a wrong password.
    OBIEE developer : chk whether the rpd property is read only.. How? But I know if I open it offline, it it says the rpd is read-only. That is because it is opened by the server.
    OBIEE developer : or try this once if all fails to reset the pass..http://obieetricks.blogspot.com/2009/08/obiee-tips-tricks-for-ease-in.html >
    Like to try it but afraid get things more confused before I understand what is going on. I have not loss my Administrator password, I can login offline, I can login to SH Answerers pages.
    Is offline suppose to have the same password as online?

    Hi Markus,
    did you check if the browser is using a proxy? (In this case your scenario unfortunately won't work).
    P4-port should generally be routed via a proxy (described in the help.sap.com), but within the PI-Tools(JNLP) the proxy-usage is not implemented.  There is even a SAP-note that describes how to check the JavaWebStart-Proxyconfiguration, but this won't help either.
    If there is a proxy defined in the browser everything is working fine till you pass the logon-screen but even with the correct "javaws"-settings you won't be able to go on.
    (This problem is pretty bad if you do have developers and the SAP-servers seperated because of security issues. I'm hoping that this malfunction will be solved with upcoming patches.)
    Solution: Establish a connection without any proxy in between.
      E.g.: a terminal server in the same network
    It would be helpful to find more people with the same problem to force a fix from SAP for that.
    If anyone else is having problems with this, please add a comment to this thread.
    Best regards
    Christian
