BOE 4.0 Report Application Server Connectivity from client machine

Hi,
We have installed BO 4.0 for RAS. We configured the RAS to pick up the rpt files from local repository, that is from the machine which the Bo is installed.
But when we try to access the RAS from client machine to process report it is not accepting the request,
1. Do I need to grant access to any specific user group?
2. What is the user id which the Report Application Service runs in the machine?
3. Do I need to add / manage any guest acoount to request from client machine?
4. How to accept other user request to process reports?
Here is the error details,
Message Number: -2147217397
Message Description: The user account has been disabled. (FWB 00012)
Please advise,
Thanks,

Thanks for your support.
I searched in otn and i got the information
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/products/forms/extracted/getclientinfo/readme.html?_template=/ocom/print
1)But in Deployment section of this document the first point is copy entire sab and its subdirectories ........ot <oracle_home>\orant\forms60\java directory.
I can't understand what is "sab" where should i look for it.
2) Place the signed JavaBean JAR file (getclientinfo.jar.sig) in the codebase directory being used to deploy Oracle Forms Server 6i applications.
Can you kindly explain this.
3) where should we write <ARCHIVE = "f60all.jar, getclientinfo.jar.sig">
Can you kindly explain this.
Thanking you in anticipation.

HOW TO CONNECT FROM CLIENT MACHINE TO REMOTE MACHINE(SERVER DATABASE MACHINE)

Hi friends.
I need your valuable help,
I am using oracle 11g database.
I have two system.One is client machine and installed oracle 11G client software.
and from this machine user can connect remote server database(This is old remote system, this is just for Information).
And i have created one new database called RMANP in new remote server machine (this is the machine, in which i need to connect from client machine)
ex

There is nothing in your connect string to tell sqlplus which database you want to connect to. Therefore it assumes (by default) that you want to connect to a *local* database whose name is identified by the value of the environment variable ORACLE_SID. And there is no such database, so he gets the reported error trying to establish a connection to a non-existent local service.
You need to specify your target database, thusly:
SQL> conn sys/syspw@rmanp as sysdba
BTW, connecting to a remote database as sysdba is considered by most DBAs to be a big secruity breach. If you really need sysdba privileges (rare) you should be logged on to the database server machine with proper OS credentials, and work from there.
Also, TYPING IN ALL CAPS IS PERCEIVED AS SHOUTING.

Path does not exit - While trying to save file on SharPoint Server 2013 from client machine

Hi,
I have installed Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise Edition on my testing Lab environment (On VM Workstation 10) on Windows Server 2012 with SQL server 2012, I can access all files stored at SharePoint Server from any physical machine, I can share
a single file among different people to work simultaneously, but here i stuck on saving any file from client machine to directly on SharePoint Server, Attached is the snap shot, whenever I try to save any file directly It says Path Does Not Exist, If I drag
and drop any file directly to SharePoint I do not see any error message.
I read from different posts that I need to Enable Desktop Experience Feature on Server 2012, which I installed but no positive result gained :(
I will appreciate for any possible help?

Application Server connection from a remote Jdev

Hi All,
I am trying to create an Application Server connection in Jdeveloper which runs on a different machine. It throws this "cannot connect the server" error.
But I am able to do the same if the Jdev is run on the same system where SOA Suite server runs.
The OAS version is 10.1.3.4, Jdev version is also 10.1.3.4
Could anyone please tell me the solution.
Thanks
Ponraj

It is probably a network issue. Do you use proxies to get to the server, or should no proxies be used because it is in the intranet?
Have a look at your IE / firefox settings in regards to proxies. You need to replicate this setting in JDev.
Goto tools -> preferences -> Web browser and Proxy settings
In most cases all you need to do is disable the proxy to connect
hope this helps
cheers

Business Objects Enterprise XI 4.0 Report Application Server Connectivity

Hi,
We have Business Objects Enterprise XI 4.0 (64 bit) in Windows 7 for Report Applciation Server.
Please advise which SDK (32 / 64 bit we have to install in RAS machine and App server)
Thanks,
Edited by: FebiginR on Jan 18, 2012 3:42 PM

Hi,
here are some answers:
1. Well for the Installation of the Software as itself (not the databases) i would recommend at least 30 GB. All the Reports are getting stored physically in the installation directory. This behavior is by default. Later you can move the FileStore (where the Reports, Universes, etc. are located in) to a NAS share f.e.
With Regards to the Databases i would recommend 1 GB for the CMS DB and 5 GB for the Audit DB. It depends on how you Audit your System. If you audit more actions, more information in the Audit DB will be stored.
2. 2 Schemas on one DB is fine
3. Usually you run a BOE installation on UNIX/LINUX under an installation user. BOE will be installed into his Home Directory.
Regards
-Seb.

Oracle 8 not connecting from client machines

hello
i am using oracle 8 on windows environment. the problem is that oracle is connecting on the server machine but not on client machine for some days. sometimes i do connects but sometimes the application helds for long time and no response is obtained. Application is residing on the server and drive has been mapped on the client machines. What can be the possible cause. ping on the network is ok.
Waiting...

oracle 8Wauv a historic database from 1997 - http://tonguc.wordpress.com/2006/12/27/history-of-oracle/
do you really have to stay at that version first of all, 11gR1 is out and 9iR2 is de-supported recently and I couldnt find this release's documentation also.
What about tnsping and sqlplus connection from your clients and listener status on your server - lsnrctl status
You may need to set, take and analyze sql*net traces - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/java.102/b14355/apxtblsh.htm#i1004660

Try changing the oc4jadmin password:
- stop oc4j
- edit system-jazn-data.xml and replace encrypted pw with !newpassword
- remove cache pw from securestore directory
- start oc4j

Report Application Server won't start. CCM always says Starting....

But now when rebooting since that time, the server continually reccomends the install updates and shutdown option. Do we need to rollback the server to date prior those updates if possible?
I have also uninstalled .Net Framework back to 2.0. Is 1.0 or 1.1 the max that will work with XI?
Should I also try to uninstall all other Windows updates?

Crystal Reports "Report Application Server"

Does anyone have any experience with Crystal Reports' Report Application Server (RAS)?
The provided documentation is very thin and support are taking an age to respond.
I want to use a Bean as a data source for a report. The blurb says you can do this, but the only documented way I can find is for the bean to return a ResultSet, completely missing the point of using a bean or EJB in the first place.
Now, Seagate's sales blurb states that Beans and EJBs can be used as data sources, but if the only way to do this is to return a common or garden ResultSet, what's the point of the bean???
So, has anyone sucessfully used a bean or EJB as a data source for report generation under RAS, or merely CR in general, without resorting to a ResultSet??

Crystal Reports YUK!! especially in Java Forum!Tell me about it!!
But, like many developers, I don't get a choice. I have to use CR, and I have to integrate it into a Tomcat (4.1.24) based app. There is a Java API for RAS, but it is a pile of dung. Can you imagine publishing an API with public methods with 'do not use, for internal use only' plastered all over them!!!
But still, back to the original question, I have to find a way of doing this, but Seagate's javadocs are a mess, as are the howto docs. All of the examples, as you might expect, are childishly simple and don't give any insight into the large and hideous API :(
Here is an example of a CR howto.....
There appear to be two ways of creating a data source that isn't an existing report or a database query. This
Runtime data sources
One of the strengths of RAS over the Crystal Reports application, is that the RAS
can use data generated programatically at runtime. With a runtime data source,
you can take data from any source�such as a database, a data stream, or a flat
file�manipulate it with the programming language of your choice, and display it
with RAS.
To use a runtime data source
1 Put your manipulated data in a rowset form that can be processed by the RAS.
Consult the Rowset object and interface in the SDK JavaDocs, for details on
creating rowsets.
2 Create and fill the Dataset object with the rowset data.
3 Create a RowsetController object.
4 Add or set the data source using the RowsetController�s AddDataSource or
SetDataSource methods respectively.
The runtime data source is now available for use.
Note: If you create a report based on a data set, the data that is used is not saved
with the report. To populate the report with data the next time you open it, you
must either re-apply the data source to see current data, or access a saved version
of the data source for preview.
All well and good, but RowsetController doesn't have an AddDataSource or SetDataSource method!!!!
and this......
JavaBean custom data sources
You can use a JavaBean (or a Java class that does not extend the bean type) in order
to specify a custom data source. In order to do this, you will need to:
� Creating a Java class that specifies a custom data source
� Referencing a java class to provide data for a report
Creating a Java class that specifies a custom data source
To use a JavaBean (or a Java class that does not extend the bean type) in order to
specify a custom data source, you will need to create a class that serves as a Java
Beans Connectivity data source for creating Crystal Reports.
This class will need to conforms to the JavaBean standard by defining private
properties that are accessible only through get and set methods. In this way the
Crystal Reports designer can introspect the class as a Bean. The JavaBean
connectivity classes require the following.
� The constructor must have zero parameters.
� Methods that are used as "tables" must have a return type of ResultSet.
� Statement objects must be created using the
ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE and ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY
arguments.
Note: Methods returning ResultSet can take arguments, these are treated as
Stored Procedure parameters by Crystal Reports.
Now, what the hell is the point of going to the trouble of abstracting your business data into a bean or EJB, if that bean has to return a ResultSet for Crystal Reports to use??!!

Error While creating Application server connection

Hi ,
I am a newbie to SOA suite . I have installed Oracle XE Database , Oracle Jdeveloper 10.1.3.3.0.3 and Oracle SOA Suite 10g (10.1.3.1) ( file name soa_windows_x86_
101310_disk1.zip) on my windows XP machine
Now I created a "Hello World Bepel Process '" . For deploying it I was trying to create an application server connection . I am not sure that I need to install anymore things or not .
Here are the steps which happened while I was trying to make connection to application server.
1> Connection Name : Gave as "AppServerConnection1"
Connection Type as "Standalone OC4J 10g 10.1.3"
2> UserName as : oc4jadmin

3> Hostname : localhost
RMI Port was coming as 23791 as default ( Please note that I checked opmn folder and tried to use the RMI from the xml file too)
4> While testing I was getting error as "For input string: "23791home"
Not sure if i need to install anything ( Probably Application Server ) more .
Please let me know what I need to do and if i need to install anything else where will I find the file ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Connection Type as "Standalone OC4J 10g 10.1.3"
When choosing the connection you need to select the connection as Oracle Application Server 10.1.3 not Standalone OC4J 10g 10.1.3
