BO Edge u2013 Client tool
Hi,
We are using BO Edge 3.0 version, is it possible to install universe designer in a client PC and connect it to the server repository?
I know u2018BusinessObjects Enterprise Client XI R3u2019 client tool is available to address this requirement in BO enterprise product but is there an option for Edge series?
Does BO Edge 3.1 series have client tool installation?
Regards,
Mohan
Hi Mohan,
there is no difference between Edge and Enterprise regarding the Client/Server Tool separation. Your client tools are in both cases part of the server download package.
After unzipping the files, there ought to be some folders which include the files of the client tool installation. The Universe Designer is also part of the Edge Client tools.
Best regards,
Sebastian

Https call from SAP SOAP client tool
Hi,
in order to call a webservice via https using the SAP SOAP client tool, I've done the following:
1. The Client cert field filled with my personal certificate from IE (pcert.pfx)
2. The Trust store field left as it was (cacerts file of the jre).
When calling the service I am getting
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found
Very likely this is caused by setting 2.
Could anybody advise how to get an X.509 certificate of trusted root CAs? Any chance to export from IE or would one have to get that from a CA? File types required are ppfx or p12, which is strange since these contain private keys.
Much appreciated.
Rene FunkeHi Rene,
You need to include the full certificate chain in the p12 file. i.e. private cert and root CA cert. IE will not export the full certificate path with the private certificate unless it was imported into IE with this flag set. You could use Firefox to generate the pks12 file. It will include the full certificate path.
This private certificate (p12 file) should then be added to the truststore in XI.
Also, .p12 (pkcs#12) file format defines a file format commonly used to store private keys with accompanying public key certificates - not just private keys.
Hope this helps.

Edit .app file in excel and then open it in client tool?
Dear Gurus,
I am very new to HFM and would like to know what practice a HFM consultant will use in editing the metadata.
My boss recommend me to edit metadata( .app file) in excel and save it into a format that can be read and opened by client tool.
However, I find no way to achieve this.
How can i edit metadata in excel and then open it in HFM client tool?Good morning,
I think the best way to do it it's working with macros. You can work with an Excel file and then, convert it to the .txt format by using macros. A .txt is more suitable to be later worked as .app.
However, you can also do it by using Copy/Paste.
1. Open the .app in a Note Pad, so you can work with .txt file.
2. Copy the .txt data in the Excel file.
3. Then, it's just working with Data > Text to Columns to format the file. Then, you can work in Excel.
Then, you will have to put the Excel file in a .txt, so you will have to follow the data files requirements. You still can do this manually, but you will have to pay attention to the format (FILE_FORMAT=11.1.2, !VERSION=11.1.3609, !CUSTOM_ORDER=Custom1;Custom2;Custom3;Custom4, !APPLICATION_SETTINGS, !CURRENCIES, etc., as it is the Admin Guide). It will also depend on the HFM version you're working with, specially when working with customs.
I received a good document about a couple of months ago that can be helpful, so if you send me an email address, I'll forward it.

Change SAP BI Password from BO Client Tools / Infoview, SAP Authentication
Hi,
We are using SAP BI BO Integration Kit (BO XI 3.1, SAP BI 7.0) & able to use SAP BI Queries with WebI, Xcelsius etc.
For a user group, we would be providing only Infoview access (using SAP Authentication). This means we would not want to install any BO Client Tools, SAP GUI or SAP Integration Kit Client, on user desktop.
We are faced with a issue - How does the user change password from Infoview (this is an SAP BI User ID used to login from Infoview).
Initial Password of SAP BI User cannot be changed from Infoview, since it doesnot prompt for changing the Initial Password.
Any ideas how to handle this situation.
regards,
Rajesh K SarinHi Erwin,
no. Also within BI4 you are not able to change your SAP password.
The Workaroung of Ingo is very suitable using SAP GUI for HTML.

Management and maintanence of 2008r2 developments with 2012 client tools
Hi eb
I need to manage and maintane sql server 2008r2 developments like databases,ssis packages,ssrs reports,ssas native cubes
and at the same time start developping in 2012 tools for 2012 servers with thier own version of client tools.
Questions:
Can 2008r2 and 2012 client tools co-exist on the same development machine?
Are there any known issues with development of any of the sql server 2008r2 components after instalation of the 2012 client components?
I guess it is not possible to uninstall the 2008r2 client tools alltogther because managing 2008r2 developments from within 2012 client tools would automatically upgrade them to 2012 version (as was the case with the 2005-2008 versions before)?
Last and not list do 2012 client tools require windows 7 OS?
TIA for your attention
Rea>>>Can 2008r2 and 2012 client tools co-exist on the same development machine?
Yes, they can , but you can develop SSIS 2012 to work against SS2008R2

Unable to install Client Tools for Sybase ASE 15.7 on Windows Server 2012 64-Bit
Hello Folks,
I just downloaded the client tools package from https://support.sap.com/swdc --> Installation and Upgrades --> A-Z list --> SAP ADAPTIVE SERVER ENTERPRISE --> SYBASE ASE 15.7 --> Installation --> Microsoft Windows --> 51044415.zip
I'm trying to install the client tools for a newly provisioned Windows 2012 64-Bit machine. After unzipping the folder and running autorun, the installation does not proceed. When I go to pcclient64 and run either setup.exe or setupConsole.exe, I get the error "This Application has Unexpectedly Quit, Invocation of this Java Application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This application will now exit. (LAX)". I stumbled across various posts on the forum, and it appears that the installer is not certified for Windows Server 2012. I tried using the compatibility mode for Windows 7, and it proceeds further and launches the SAP GUI; however, it closes afterwards.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.Hi,
51044415 is a PC-Client 15.7 refresh.
You are using a version that was not certified with Windows 2012. Get the most current version PC-Client 15.7 SP130 or SDK 15.7 SP130 or SP132.
If your looking for PC-Client5.7 SP130 look for EBF23439
We didn't get certified with Windows 2012 until SDK 15.7 ESD#6 even with that I reported a few minor issues.
You need the following on the machine before the installation.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) (or dsedit and ocscfg will not work)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x64) (or dsedit and ocscfg will not work)

BOE-XI 3.1 Client Tools (SP4) Error
BOE-XI 3.1 Client Tools (SP3) are installed OK on a Workstation...
Business View Manager = 12.3.0.601
Designer = 12.3.0.601
WebIntelligence Rich Client = 12.3.0.601
I have downloaded the "SBOP Enterprise Client Tools XI 3.1 ServicePack 4" files from the SAP Support site (ENTERPRISECLNT04_0-10007619.exe).
When I run the EXE - it unzips the files for about 10 minutes and then starts the install - but quickly throws the error below...
"The update installation cannot proceed because either the target product is missing or is not the correct version for this update. Verify that the product to be updated exists on your system and you have the correct patch."
Anyone seen this error before - and know the fix...?
Thanks in advance for any advice / suggestions.Hi Mark,
This error may show up if have installed the client originally from the Server build, or the other way around. You may check the registry, if it has key codes for the enterprise it means the client was installed by the server build.
I have installed BOXI 3.1 sp4 clients on several machines no issue.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

BOE XI 3.1 Client Tools
During the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 instllation ->Install Type, I selected:
"New" and "Install MySQL Database server". Also check the check-box "Enable server upon installation"
Then continue with the installation. Completed succesffully.
This also means I have installed all the client-tools (Web Intelligent, Desktop Intelligent etc) on the server.
Now if the user need to the access to Webi and create and publish the query into CMS, how do they actually access to the WEBI?
Do we need to install the WEBI again on each of their machine?
Edited by: lynn on Mar 10, 2010 2:17 AMHi Stratos,
Thanks again for you explanation, that really make thing clear!!!
1) Use the web-based version of WebI. Your users will be able to create and view WebI reports using their internet browser.
If I am using this option, that's mean I dont have to install the Webi Rich Client on each users workstation as I have already install them on the BOE Server. All the user need to do is basically logon to BOE InfoView, then create and publish the Webi document on the BOBJ repository and the rest of the user can access them, correct?
2) Deploy the WebI richt client on the user's workstation. This stand-alone client tool allows you to develop and view WebI reports. You can then export the reports to the BOBJ repository and thus make them available for your report consumers, ho will use their browser to view the report (Option 1)
If I choose this option, I still install the Webi Rich Client form the BOE XI 3.1 (Server/client) software , but during the Install Type step, I choose Custom or Expand Install, correct?
Please advise, thank you,. -

How to save user name and password on client tool
Hi,
In our landscape, few users are using webi rich client tool to work offline. They are entering login credentials manually everytime. Is there any way to save the user id and password, so that user can login without manually entering the login credentials everytime. Please find below my system details. Please anyone help is highly appreciated.
System Details:
Server: BOBI 4.1 SP2
Client tool : BOBI 4.1 SP2
Authentication type : Windows AD
Thanking you in anticipation
Obinna.Hello,
oh yes it is!
The Question is for which Front- Ends?
For the WRC you dont have to do anything as long as the Information under "System" is correct and "Windows AD" is selected under "Authentication. Leave "Username" and "Password" blank.
Just hit "OK" and you are logged in.

Client tools not authenticating via Windows AD after upgrade to SP4
We recently upgraded our test environment to SP4 to correct a problem we were having with Windows AD authentication from InfoView. The upgrade to SP4 and JDK 1.5 solved our InfoView problem, but our client tools (Designer, Desk, Crystal Reports) can no longer login to our test environment using Windows AD authentication.
The error message we get when trying to connect to the SP4 instance using Designer or Deski is as follows:
[repo_proxy 13] SessionFacade::openSessionLogon with user info has failed(Internal error.(hr=#0x80042a01)
Enterprise authentication continues to work as normal. My first thought was that my client tools are at the SP2 level and they are trying to connect to an SP4 instance. Therefore, I need to upgrade the client tools to the SP4 level as well in order to get Windows AD authentication to work. Is this correct, and if so what is the proper way to upgrade the client tools to SP4?
On the SAP download site you can download the SP4 Full install, but when you run it says to uninstall the existing version first which I haven't tried yet. Does the SP4 full install give the option to do a client install versus a server install like previous SP2 install?While we always recommend matching versions I have rarely seen a problem with client tools and AD using different versions. I think you may have a different issue.
If your clients were installed from a deski/designer ONLY install then you can use a client version of SP4 that is much smaller. There should also be a server version that can be installed on top of deski/designer+ client tools (this should not require an uninstall). Finally there is an integrated build which includes the full XIR2 product with SP4 built in(it sounds like you downloaded this).
If SP4 does not resolve I'd suggest opening a message with support and packet scanning the client with netmon or wireshark.
What's the error you get with crystal using AD? There was a known issue on SP3 client patch that made all clients fail with AD/LDAP.

BusinessObjects Enterprise Client Tools XI 3.1 SP3 Connection Error
Hello everybody,
I installed BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP3 on the server, the server has Windows Server Enterprise 2007.
Locally, in my Laptop, I installed the BusinessObjects Enterprise Client Tools XI 3.1 SP3, but i can´t connect with the CMS using the Webi, or anyother tool to the server. I made everything that is in the administrator, installation and configuration guides, but reading the administrator guide for Query as a WebService I read that if you install the BusinessObjects Enterprise Tools you need a key license to us it, the question will be this.
Do i need a different license than the one what i use to install the BusinessObjects Enterprise on the server to install, connect and use the BusinessObjects Enterprise Client Tools XI 3.1 SP3 on every machine that i install and use for it????
Thanks and regards.You do not need separate or additional license for the Client Tools.
Most often Client tools cannot connect to server components because :
1. CMS server is not running on the server
2. There is a firewall between Client machine and the server machine and firewall specific settings were not done. (Admin guide - working with firewalls section).
