BPC 7.5 NW - EVDRE error retrieving data

Hello all.
I have a problem with my BPC 7.5 NW system.
I am working with BPC 7.5 NW SP07, and I did all the installation and configuration steps with both .NET and ABAP components.
But when I try to execute an EVDRE, the system shows the next error message:
"EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from Web Server"
I checked ST22 transaction and I saw that /BI0/02xxx tables are not created or activated. I checked these tables in SE11 transaction, and they don´t exist.
I saw several posts and a couple of notes with this problem. They say that these temporary tables are needed to be created or activated, but I couldn´t see anywhere the way to solve the problem in case the tables are not created.
Does anyone have any idea? What is the cause of this problem? Why these are not being created?
Thanks in advanced.
Best regards,
Fernando

1. Login into BPC for Admin
2. Once logged into your Appset , open the Dimension library
3. Process each dimension by selecting the "Process members from membersheet" and by unchecking the "Take system offline" option
4. Process all the dimensions one by one not together.
5. Once processing the dimensions is done then open the Applications and Modify each Application by adding or changing the Application Description.
6. Once done modifying Applications then logout of the BPC Admin and BPC Excel.
7. Login back again into BPC for Excel by going through the connection wizard.
Ideally this should solve your problem and If all the dimensions are processed successfully then logoff and login to see if you stilll see the EVDRE error.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sanjeev

Changes in hierarchy dimension members causes EVDRE Errors retrieving data

Hi everybody,
I am facing the problem while retrieving the data in Evdre this is the following situacion:
1. BPC 7.5 NW SP 08 is used.
2. Suppose that you have a template where you defined SELF,DEP for an account dimension, you expand and refresh normally, and retrieved data OK.
3. Your business case makes that you have to move one of the dependant member of the hierarchy to another parent
then you go to mantain dimension member and change the parent of the member in question, finally you process dimension, and put available set status.
4. Yo re-open Template or refresh dimension members from the server in order to see update hierarchy in account dimension
5. After expanding and refreshing the evdre, shows and error "...while retrieving the data.. "
6. I suppose the way to fix it is to reverse the change in dimension member, so I change for initial parenth but error continue.
What do you recommend for fix it? is there any note which solve it?

Hi Sabine,
Hi Sabine,
Thanks for your answer, we followed all the steps you suggested, but the problem continue,
Could you confirm us what is the the path of that XML file of dimension thought BW - UJFS?
The only thing that correct problem is doing the following but not should be the best way:
1. Supress Account dimension in application
2. Delete dimension
3. Recreate Dimension and process it
4. insert dimension into application
5. Refresh Evdre and then works fine!
Is there any Sap note about it or something else to check?
Thanks For your help

Error retrieving data from the web server in Excel fo BPC

Hello Everybody,
I'm working with BPC v7.5 , i created some reports with the EVDRE formula and they were working perfectly.
The problem started when i created new users, that in fact have the same access profile and task profile as my user.
i started to test these new users in excel and every time i expand the report this legend appears: " EVDRE Retrying... EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server. Retrying in (X) Seconds...". After waiting a while a push cancel, then appears a window with the legend: Ev4excel Addin, Errors found retriening data.
The funny thing is that when i login back to my user everything works fine again, any idea what could be the problem? the other user have the same permissions.
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Nidia Olguí

very strange. Normally the member access profile must be diifferent. So it is not important the task profile but the member access profile. Can you please double check ?
If you are doing a simple EVDRE with users having problems is it working or you still have problems?

EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server

Hi,
I'm working on a presales AppSet "Demo5b".
When I create a brand-new EVDRE report on FINANCE app, there is no problem.
However, after changing to ICMATCHING app, when I type =EVDRE() on a blank sheet and press Refresh, the following message pops up.
EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server
Retrying in (??) seconds
Any idea why this happens and how it can be solved?
Thanks!
Sunny

Hi Joost,
I have the same problem. When I try to retrieve data on an input schedule is launched that error.
I am working on an VM on MS BPC.
I am not working with cubes so the solution is not the same.
If i process all my dimensions this error does not appear any more?

This generally indicate a version conflict. Your classpath is dirty. The older versioned class without that method apparently got precedence in classloading above the newer versioned class with that method. Cleanup your classpath. Check all classes/JAR´s and remove all duplicated older versions.

Error retrieving data from database

my problem is i cant connect my eclipse to database
it display this error
Error parsing data org.json.JSONException: Value <html><body><h2>Checking of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject
my apps can run correctly before...but last night i cant open it when want to retrieve any data from database
can somebody help me?

This doesn't seem to have anything to do with Eclipse, but I'd guess that a server-side error message is being returned a HTML rather than the JSON you expect.

Error retrieving data in Oracle BI 11g from DB2 AS/400

Hello everybody,
In my Oracle BI 11g environment I want to have data coming from a DB2 AS/400 database. Retrieving the tables from the database in BI Administration and building the repository works fine. But as soon as I want to see the data (from the BI Administration or BI Answers) I get the following error (in BI Answers):
+Description: System.Data.Odbc.OdbcException: ERROR [08S01] [IBM][iSeries Access ODBC Driver]Communication link failure. comm rc=11004 - CWBCO1011 - Remote port could not be resolved+
I tried some different settings (ODBC Basis, ODBC Advanced and AS/400) as a databasetype and different type of connections (ODBC 2.0 and ODBC 3.5) in the connection pool. But non of the settings seems to solve the problem.
When I try to query the database using another tool, Oracle Interactive Reporting, everything works fine as long as I use ODBC as both database- and connectiontype.
Does anybode got an idea how this can be solved/where to look for a solution?
Thanks in advance!
With regards,
Dennis de Kock

Hi Dennis,
We have used default ODBC 3.5 to connect DB2 AS400 iseries but we would like to know from Oracle what is the certified client connectivity software to use.
Afte Opening SR with Oracle they have mentioned that Oracle has not tested and it is not a certified database to support as per SRSP document.
Please let me know your feedback if you have contacted Oracle on this ?
Thanks

Error retrieving data from the payload

Hi all,
I have a sample process which receive the xml payload posted (with http post) from another process. I am able to see the data in my input payload, but I am not able to use either assignment or transformation to get the value of any element from that payload. If I use the getNodeValue, I am able to see the data of each element.
e.g., the xml that was posted to this process is
=========
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<stockquotes>
<stock_quote>
<symbol>ABCDEFG</symbol>
<when>
<date>01/27/2001</date>
<time>3:40PM</time>
</when>
<change>-2.1875</change>
<volume>8050200</volume>
</stock_quote>
</stockquotes>
=================
In my input payload, I am seeing as
=========
<Receive_XMLNode_InputVariable>
<part name="RequestMessage">
<RequestMessage>
<stock_quote>
<symbol>ABCDEFG</symbol>

But when I tried to assign symbol element to output, I am getting "com.oracle.bpel.client.BPELFault: faultName: {{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/}selectionFailure} " error. Can anyone advise me what am I doing wrong? Thanks.

I added the namespace in my stockquote xml payload exactly as I used in the input xsd, and it started working.

Error retrieving data from CLOB....please help!

I am trying to retrieve a CLOB object from Oracle. I am using
Oracle's thin driver.

char[] buffer = new char[4];
int length = 0;
while ((length = instream.read(buffer)) != -1)
System.out.print("Read " + length + " chars: ");

Serialization Error retrieving data from JSP to Applet

I have an applet which calls a JSP to write data object to the db and then the JSP sends back the updated data object. The writing part is ok but the response is giving the following error. The data object is in a separate class which implements Serialized.
Here's the code in the applet calling the JSP and the response from the JSP
URL server = null;
String urlConnectionString = "http://localhost:7001/isLoginValid.jsp";
try
     server = new URL(urlConnectionString);
catch(MalformedURLException e)
     System.out.println("URL exception: " + e );
// send request
ObjectInputStream response = null;
Object result = null;
try
     URLConnection conn = server.openConnection();
        conn.setDoOutput(true);
        conn.setUseCaches(false);
        conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/octet-
        stream");
        ObjectOutputStream request = new ObjectOutputStream(new
        BufferedOutputStream(conn.getOutputStream()));
     request.writeObject((Object)dvo);
     request.flush();
     request.close();
        // get the result input stream
     response = new ObjectInputStream(new BufferedInputStream
        (conn.getInputStream()));
     // read response back from the server
     result = response.readObject();
        if( result!=null && (result instanceof DataVO))
          dvo = (DataVO)result;
             String vo = dvo.printDataVO();
             System.out.println
             ("*****************DataVO********************\n"+vo);
     else
          System.out.println("not an instanceof DataVO");
catch(IOException ignored)
     System.out.println("Error in DataVO response");
     ignored.printStackTrace();
}Here's the code in the JSP sending the response back to the applet.
The 'dvo' object is the object which is serialized and has gets and sets
for the diff. data elements. When I print the 'dvo' before writing
the object to outputStream it prints the correct values for the data
element.
// send response
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);
ObjectOutputStream outputStream = new ObjectOutputStream (new BufferedOutputStream (response.getOutputStream()));
outputStream.writeObject(dvo);
outputStream.flush();ERROR is as follows:
Error in DataVO response
java.io.StreamCorruptedException: InputStream does not contain a serialized object
     at java/io/ObjectInputStream.readStreamHeader
     at java/io/ObjectInputStream.<init>
What am I doing wrong?. Please respond soon. Thanks

EVDRE encountered an error when retrieving data from web server

Hi
When I am trying to open Data Input=>Build a schedule using a dynamic template in BPC version for SAP netweaver, I am getting the below error "EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server".
I am not able to open any template, every time I am getting the same message. I have tried again after reprocessing all the dimension.
Even I have tried in appset APSHELL also, there also I am getting the same error
Request you to help me to resolve the above error which will allow me to proceed further.
Thanks in Advance.
Venkat

Hi,
Beside Nilanjan's solution, this error could also occur when the expansion is running more rows than the Excel limit allows (65'000 rows and 256 cols for Excel 2003)...
Even when you're using suppress field to reduce the number of rows, the first sequence is to retrieve the complete dataset before performing any suppression. And this could of course exceed the limit sometimes.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Patrick

EVDRE error on certain member from Dimension

Hi,
One of the template will have EVDRE error when selection this entity. Upon check, by creating simple EVDRE report, some new members from this entity cause the EVDRE error. The new members was just added to the dimension and no issue when running process dimension. We have open the dimension, save and re run the process dimension without any error but still have the evdre error when open the template with the entity. No issue with other entity For info we are running BPC MS 7.5 upgraded recently from BPC MS 7.0. Any help is very much appreciated.

Hi Kheirudin,
sorry from your description I didn't understand it was the same issue. If it is the same normally you're able to process the dim the day after.
You don't need to raise to SAP, SAP has released one years ago, see please 1633966 - BPC MS: EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server, "Errors found retrieving data" .
For my experience it's sufficient as workaround to update the date of the .dep files, without stop and restart of services as described in the thread of your last answer.
Let me know if the workaround is clear or not.
Regards
Roberto

EVDRE encountered error retrieving the data from web Server

Hi,
I know this is the common/generic error message, following is our scenario:
We installed BPC NW 7.5 on our production box and configured F5 load balancing for two .NET servers.
We are getting the error "EVDRE encountered error retrieving the data from web Server"when we run the report EVDRE on APSHELL (original Appset). This is the fresh installation:
The workaround "Clear Local application information". Even this works only sometimes.
Is there anything else we should have configured on using two .NET servers?
Please suggest.
Thanks

hi Nagesh sorry for the delayed reply..
We changed some of the parameters at F5 switch like sticky time, timeout..
And the MDXPARSER connection to one of out application server was failling, thats why we did not had this issue consistently.
When ever the request goes to that app server fails. It took a lot effort to notice this since we were assuming the F5 switch was only causing the issue.
Thanks

EVDRE error "encountered problem when retrieving data from webserver"

Hi,
in a EVDRE we always get the error "encountered problem when retrieving data from webserver"
When analysing this further we noticed this is always generated when a base member is selected in the CV and the expansion on the row for this dimension is has one of the following expansion settings:
DEP
ALL
NOEXPAND
if we select SELF, the error disappears again and the EVDRE works fine again ... is this normal behavior?
there is no problem with application nor dimension.

Note that the keyword "ALL" does not include the member itself. This may cause some confusion, but as Harish implies, when you select a base member it finds no matches if your memberset is "ALL".
If you want to design a report to handle the user moving back and forth between base and non-base members in their CV, you either need to include SELF,ALL or SELF,DEP, or something similar....
OR you need to get a little fancier, and use EVPRO to look and see if the CV member is base -- evpro(app,member,"CALC") -- and then use some conditional logic in Excel to choose the correct expansion options. If Calc=N, use Self, otherwise use SELF,DEP or whatever you choose. This can be a bit tricky if you then want the user to be able to drill down in the report (especially if you want the workbook option to insert add'l rows on the expansion, rather than replace), but it's all possible.
