Business Objects XI R2 Launchpad issue

Hi All,
We just recently upgraded to Weblogic 9.2 and we are using Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 on the server. Everything was working fine on the previous version of Weblogic 8.1 SP4.
Scenario 1.
Open up new webpage with the launchpad and you click on Central Management Console Link then you ALT TAB back to the Launch Pad and Click InfoView Link you get an Error "From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1";
Scenario 2.
Open up new webpage with the launchpad and you click
on InfoView Link then you ALT TAB back to the Launch Pad and Click Central Management Console Link you get an Error "From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1";
Scenario 3.
Open up new webpage with the launchpad and you click
either InfoView Link or Central Management Console Link then you ALT TAB back to the Launch Pad and REFRESH the web page you get an Error "From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1";
Any help would be great in helping us solve this problem.
Thanks in advance
Rick

Hi,
Cause of this issue :
Once the Job Server recieves the scheduled job and spawns a new child process, the child process is unable to complete the job. The child process constantly is waiting to load the job. Looking further into the log and specifically the startup script, the -port option was incorrectly used (-restart-port) and didn't allow the child process to bind to the correct port using the correct DNS name.
In Order to resolve this issue follow the steps given below..
1.Open CCM
2. Stop Server
3. Right Click Server and go to Properties
4. insert -port option in to command line, example below
ex. "
win2k3\C$\ProgramFiles\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\win32_x86\JobServerFullClient.exe" -service -name win2k3.Desktop_IntelligenceJobServer -ns win2k3 -objectType CrystalEnterprise.FullClient -lib pp_procFC -jsTypeDescription "Desktop Intelligence Job Server" -maxDesktops 0 -restart -port win2k3.it.bo.example
5. Save setting and restart server.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Sandeep Singh

Business Objects XIR2 Infoview login issue

Hello -
I have a typical issue with BO Infoview login screen where the system name is showing incorrectly. The value should be coming from the configuration from web.xml file but it shows a totally different name with no option to update it. I checked the windows registry and system valiarbles but I haven't found anywhere on the system. Any ideas where this value is coming from ? Thanks.

Thanks Denis. I see that the login issue has been resolved, but I noticed a different error when I login and logout from CMC. Here's the error message... not sure if this is connected to the previous one.

Performance issue with Business Objects Java JRC API in CRXI R2 version

A report is developed using java JRC API in CR XI release 2. When I generate the report in the designer, it took less than 5 seconds to display the results in crystal report viewer inside the designer. But in the QA environment, when I generate the same report from the application, it takes almost 1 to 1.5 minutes to display the same results in PDF. I also noticed that if the dataset contains bigger volume of data, then the reports are taking even longer almost 15 to 20 minutes.
While generating the report from the application, I noticed that most of time is taken during the execution of the com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.ReportExportControl Object method as shown in following line of code
exportControl.processHttpRequest(request, response, context, null)
We thought the delay in exporting the report to PDF might be the layout of the report and data conversion to PDF for such a bigger volume of data.
Then we investigated the issue and experimented quickly to generate the same report with same result set data from the application using XML, XSL and converted the output XSL-FO to PDF using Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) implementation. The time taken to export the report to PDF is less than 6 seconds. By doing this experiment, it is proved that the issue is not with conversion of data to PDF but it is the performance problem with Business Objects Java JRC API in CR XI R2.
In this regard, I searched for the above issue in the SAP community Network Forums -> Crystal Reports and Xcelsius -> Java Development -> Crystal Reports. But I did not find any answers or solutions for this kind of issue in the forums.
Any suggestion, hint in this matter is very much appreciated.

Ted, The setReportAppServer problem is resolved. Now I could able to generate the report with hardcoded values in the SQLs in just 6 seconds where as the same report was generated in CRXI R2 in 1 minute 15 seconds as mentioned in the earlier message.
But, our exisiting application passes the parameter values to the SQLs embedded in the report. For some reason the parameters are not being passed to the report and the report displays only the labels without data.
As per the crj 12 samples codes, the code is written as shown below.
1. Created ReportClient Document
2. SetReportAppServer
3. Open the report
4. Getting DatabaseController and switching the database connection at runtime
5. Then setting the parameters as detailed below
ParameteFields parameterFieldController = reportClientDoc.getDataDefController().getParameterFieldController();
parameterFieldController.setCurrentValue("", "paramname",paramvalue);
parameterFieldController.setCurrentValue("", "paramname",paramavalue);
byteArrayInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream)reportClientDoc.getPrintOutputController().export(ReportExportFormat.PDF);
6. Streaming the report to the browser
Why the parematers are not being passed to the report? Do I need to follow the order of setting these parameters? Did I miss any line of code for setting Params using crj 12?
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

Replacing Business Objects - Modelling Issue

I'm working on a large 'BI' project that is replacing Business Objects with OBIEE ( actually its not really a BI project its more of a give us what we've got now using OBIEE project ) - which is proving challenging in some areas.
One example is with the Data Model that BO provides in its Universe, the model I'm replacing is pretty much 3NF (even though it uses DIM and FACT in the table names) they're joined pretty much all over the place, which enables the users to select from tables which can be 4,5,6 steps away from the original - including via M:M relationships!
Anyway one specific issue is based around the old question of multiple fact tables where not all dimensions are conformed.
Dim - Business Manager ---< Fact - Forecast >----- Dim - Product -----< Fact - Actuals >------ Dim Salesman
I've setup the Dimensions for each Dimension Logical Table.
I've created a single logical table containing a Forecast and Actual Amount from the 2 fact tables and set the logical levels appropriately at Table Level. For the Forecast measure I have a logical level set to 'Total - Salesman' and for the Actuals measure I have logical level set to 'Total - Business Manager'.
This works great when I select an Attribute from Business Manager, and Salesman and both of the measures in the Answer.
However the users want to be able to select from Business Manager, and Salesman dimensions without selecting the measures, is this possible - do I need to add a bridging table to resolve the relationships between a Business Manager and Salesman explicitly rather than implicitly via the facts?
I have set Implict Fact at the Presentation Model, however this doesn't work (it misses off Total Level aggregation in the OBI Server SQL).
Thanks in advance for any suggestions/answers.

Thanks for the helpful reply Turribeach, along with the interesting and informative link.
This is my first foray into the world of BO and I think some of the points you make in the link are right on the money. I've spent many years working with Oracle Tools (Dataquery,Data Browser, Discoverer and then OBIEE when Oracle acquired the tool ). There are difficulties in the modeling with OBIEE, certainly when it comes to trying to replicate a 'fairly' complex BO universe they become apparent.
Many hoops to jump through to give the user a like for like, which I'm not convinced will be possible - maybe some negotiation is required :-)

Crystal reports / business objects - RAS timeout issue

Hi,
I am experiencing a problem in my Java application in viewing a report generated by Crystal Report. Let me start off by saying I'm not entirely sure that the problem is with Weblogic, but at the moment it seems likely to be.
The Java app uses the RAS in Business Objects to get/display a report. There is a timeout setting on the RAS server and once this has elapsed, the next request from the Java web app causes a timeout error. Code in the Java app handles the timeout and makes a new connection to the RAS and displays the report (the error and re-connection is all seamless to the end user).
This was all working fine until recently when the server was upgraded from Windows 2000 to Windows 2003. Now when the Java app makes a request after the timeout has elapsed there is no error returned and instead the process continues and a blank page is shown on the web page.
On the Business Objects side of things, one of the log files states a "received invalid request" message which seems to indicate the Java app is sending it something unrecognisable. So my question is, are there any known issues with Weblogic server under Windows 2003 that could be causing this problem? I'm running version 8.1 SP3.
Since the problem has arose I've tested the Java app on a Windows 2000 and Windows XP environment (both 8.1 SP3) and the timeout occurrance and handling works as expected. I've raised a support request with Business Objects but from previous experience I know they will take a while to respond. So any help about this from you guys will be much appreciated.

Issue With Business Objects Installation-STW00213 The Central Management Server has failed to start.

Hi,
I am in the process of installing Business Objects XI 3.1 in one of our server. While installing I am getting the error 'The Central Management Server has failed to start. Press 'retry' to attempt to start it again or 'cancel' to skip any actions dependendent on the Central Management Server. STW00213.'
I have tried re-installing the BO, and also tried installing without giving admin password. But it doesn't work. And also I ahve tried giving the passwords of database and CMS Admin without Sepcia Characters. But it also doesn't work.
If I cancel and install the BO, Server Intelligence Agent is not available in Central Management Server.
Could anyone help on this issue?
Thanks
Prakadesh

Hi Prakadesh,
Try these steps.
1. Stop and disable the service of current SIA. You can do it from start-->run services.msc. Double click the SIA service and change the status to disable.
2. Login into sqlplus and drop all the CMS tables.
3. Create a new SIA pointing to Oracle from the CCM.
4. Start the new SIA and check if all services come up and you are able to login into Manager servers.
If this does not work, check the event viewer for error messages.

Issue with Citrix Business Objects full client

Hi ,
I have issue with my database pasword being expired. I ran a recovery and it works fine for me.
Since we are using the citirx installation the bomain.key is available on the citrix server which is copied across the user profile when they are login into citrix server via the logon script.
I still could not find whether the log on script is correct or not can any one of you let me know what I can use to copy the bomain.key using citrix usrlogon.cmd script.
Regards,
Ramesh

Please post this query to the Business Objects Enterprise Administration forum:
BI Platform
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all BOE queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thank you for your understanding,
Ludek

Business Objects Explorer(polestar) Bookmark tool Issue.

Hi All,
We have installed business objects explorer recently. We are currently running on BOE 3.1. We have published an explorer view to our users and we have an issue with it. The users add or change analytics to the view and try to bookmark them. But the bookmarks always takes them to the base page.
Wanted to know whether this is a known issue or a service pack or a fix pack issue. Also is there a workaround for this problem.
Thanks,
Karthik

Hello Karthik,
You may want to try the Business Objects Administration forum.

Business Objects Mobile (V 11.5.0) - Issues

Hi,
I saw one issue in this version of BO Mobi.
The Call Link works fine in windows mobile but the SMS Link fails and gives an error on windows mobile device.
I first tried the BO Mobi Demo from the Business Objects Website and worked fine. Now when I try to do that the installer gives me an error.
If anyone know how to get the SMSto thing working please let me know.
Thanks,
Chinmay

Rick,
I believe you need to use CR XI R2 with BOE XI R2. i.e. you need to upgrade to CR XI R2. (11.5.x.xxx)
CR XI (11.0.0.2269) is Crystal Reports XI R1
BO XI (11.5.8.825 ) is BOE XI R2 SP2.
Best.

I am facing the same issue. I already upgraded from XCelsius 4.5 WorkGroup Edtion to XCelsius 2008 but my BO Platform icon is still disabled. I remember it correctly when i build the live office model with XCelsius 4.5 it was working correctly and now i am not able to push my dashboard to the BO Platform becuase the icon is disabled.
I have noticed one thing, when you start the XCelsius 2008, the icon was still appearing and enabled but once it loaded fullly the icon gets disabled.

Business Object Issue

Hi All,
How to implement both add and update page actions through one business object??

Do you want to process the add and update in one call to the BO or you want different actions. Add and update essentially allow you to manipulate data on the BO except one for new instance of a BO (Add) and the other for manipulating an existing BO.
You can only pass one action per BO call unless you wrap that BO in a service script which checks for the BO before you issue the Add or update action.
The script would basically check for existance (using a Read action on a copy of the BO) and then issue the appropriate action after that. Add if it does not exist and Update if it does exist.

Issue for production via SAP Business Objects

Hi all,
I would like to create Issue for production from SAP Business Object. I am using C#.net. I did not find it in DIAPI
Is there any way ????
Issue is urgent
Thanks in advance

Hello Manish,
IT worked for me, you can try it.
SAPbobsCOM.Documents ldoc_RecHdr = (SAPbobsCOM.Documents)oCompany.GetBusinessObject(BoObjectTypes.oInventoryGenExit);
               ldoc_RecHdr.DocDate = Convert.ToDateTime(DTPPostingDate.Value);

Issue with EP KM integration with Business Objects

Hi,
We have integrated BOBJ with EP KM and are able to view the Business object repository (Inbox, MyFavorites & Root Folder) in KM.
The issue is when a webi document is added to My Favourites in Business object Infoview, the same is not reflecting in the EP KM. It takes around 30 mins to show the latest content in KM
Any clue on this.? While configuring BOBJ repository manager in KM, we dont specify any cache or pull mechanism to fetch the latest webi documents from BOBJ. Am I missing some configuration from portal end.?
Thanks,
Siva

Any clue on this. I am still facing this issue and haven't got any work around.

Issue with the Data Type 'Number' in Business Objects

Hi,
I have an Object in the Universe where the Data Type of the Object is a number. This Column pertaining to this Object has certain values in the database out of which there is a 17 Digit Value which is 00000000031101165.
Now, when trying to retreive the same value through Business Objects it is getting rounded off to 00000000031101200 automatically when trying to view in Webi and when trying to retreive the same in Designer/Deski, it displays as 0.000000003110116E+16.
So, I would like to know if there is any other alternative in trying to retreive the Original Value that would not round off. Also, do we have any Limitation for the Data Type Number in Business Objects? The Version we are on is XI3.1.
Note: There are no functions that are used on this Object at the Universe Level and would not like to use any functions here.

What is the underlying database?
It looks like the data is considered to have two decimals, but is rounded to zero decimals.
Only you don't see the number formatting.
Is this a BW query?
Is this a calculated keyfigure?
In the query you can specify the rounding you want and it is also possible to specify it on an infoobject level.
Check those settings...
Hope this helps,
Marianne
PS. Oh, and about the formatting, you can specify a default object format in the universe and override it on the final client (WebI, Crystal)
