Headings and commands duplicated in Business Objects XIR2

Post Author: Jon Webb
CA Forum: .NET
My headings and commands keep getting duplicated in Business Object XIR2 for Visual Studio 2005. It's hard to take a picture because screen capture closes the menu, but right now I have two "Crystal Reports" menus listed in the Visual Studio 2005 main menu. Each of these menus has four insert items, with similar duplication for the other items, and the inset menus have similar duplicates. I think all this duplication is eating up memory in Visual Studio because I keep getting out of memory messages even though I have a lot of RAM and a large page file. Any idea what is going on here? How can I reset the menus back to their original state without manually editing them?

Are there any other options? Did that process fix the issue? I hate to go through all of that to have the same problem. It seems like there should be an easier/faster way. Thanks,Andrew

Scheduling Options(CMC)/ Business Objects Xir2

Environment spec:
Aix 5.3
Business Objects Xir2
Crystal reports Xi
DB2
Tomcat
Whilst scheduling a report from the CMC, there is a 'Schedule For' tab
I am trying to determine how this option works, whilst scheduling for a selected group/users.
I have reviewed the relevant documentation in the Business Objects Administrators guides in reference to this including Xi, XiR2 and XiR3/3.1.
There is no clear definition.
I asked this question, as we are trying to determine if whilst using this option does BO execute the query and then filter data according to each group/user OR execute the query for each specific user/group. If the latter is the case then this will have a big impact on our environment resources.
unfortunately we have reach EOL for Business Objects XiR2 so tech support will no longer advise us.
If anyone can provide us with any insight or direction this will be greatly appreciated
Many thanks

HI,
Option u2018Schedule foru2019 is generally used when you want schedule the reports on behalf of other users such that when underlying queries hit the database, they use the useru2019s id and pull the data based on his authorization over the data.
With SAP BW as backend, the impact can easily be seen where a report will show different dataset if run for two different sap user who different data access. Same should be the case with other databases as well.
Thanks,

We have to upgrade IE9 to IE11 (Internet Explorer ) for Business Objects XIR2 environment

Hi Experts,
We are currently using Business Objects XIR2 Infoview link in Internet Explorer 9 version. Now my client wants to upgrade IE9 to IE11.
Is it compatibility to Business Objects XIR2
Please let me know if we have any issue for upgrade to IE11 .
Thanks,
Veera

XIR2 is not compatible with IE11 at all. You're user will see all sorts of possible issues. Or no issues at all.
XIR2 is no longer supported by SAP (several years now) so no testing or patching been done to make XIR2 compatible.

Applet Java_Report_Panel Notinited Error in Business Objects XIR2 Webi

Hi,
I am facing a error Applet Java_Report_Panel Notinited when I want to create or edit a Web Intelligence report.
The Current version of BO is XIR2.
The version of Java installed on my machine is 1.6.0.
Whenever, I try to create or modify a new report through Infoview, I get a blank Page and at the bottom of the Infoview, it displays
Java Report Panel Notinited.
This was working fine till yesterday. There were no changes or updates done on the machine.
Just for reference, the reports work fine, when I use the other panels such as the Query-HTML and HTML Report Panel.
I had enabled all the required options in the Internet Explorer. but still, I face the Issue.
Let me know what has to be done in resolving the same.

This was working fine till yesterday. There were no changes or updates done on the machine
Are you absolutely sure about no changes applied? I.e. you solely are the administrator, and you have sole access to this server in regards to administration, loading patches, or other configurations? The "no init" I ran into a couple of years back and the cause was our web admin wanted to make a shorter URL appear in the address bar (something like ACME.com/BO) versus ACME.com/businessobjects/enterprise115/infoview, so he built a "virtual" web folder and had it say "BO". Well, everything worked fine in Infoview, logging in, running reports, etc, etc, however, after loading a particular service pack, and then when we went to build a new web intelligence document the whole house of cards came toppling down. Long story short, we had to forego the "BO" short name and revert back to the long URL, as ugly as it appeared, the previous method of "BO" was not longer applicable with the new "java bridge" that Business Objects had implemented with their new service pack. So, perhaps someone tried to make things more efficient for you, but in the long run actually broke a few things along the way....
Thanks,
John

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.

Brand New Installation of Business Objects XIr2 Application Server

Hello,
We have recently acquired Business Objects XI r2 as we are in the process of migrating from Business Objects 6.5.1
We currently use BO 6.5.1 on a small scale using Business Query via excel to access a remote Data Warehouse. I beleive we will now use Live Office in the new XI world.
We have acquired licenses for the following components, and I really would like some assistance on how to install them and in which order
Business Objects Enterprise Professional
Business Objects Live Office
Business Objects Web Intelligence
I have a windows 2003 server in place to host the application, but where do I start ? Which component do I need to install first ?
Many thanks

Hmm, this is Redhat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 - it's basically a 'snapshot' of our existing dev system.
One thing I have seen elsewhere is a problem with the libstdc++ compatability library, but it looks like that's installed (we tried tossing in a copy we had from CentOS, and got:
[root@bos-rep-bob01 ~]# rpm -ivh ./compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm
warning: ./compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 443e1821

        package compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-61.x86_64 (which is newer than compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386) is already installed
        package compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-61.i386 (which is newer than compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386) is already installed

So it's installed, and pretty up to date.

Business object for material , template workflow for materials ?

Hi,
I need to create a workflow for material master , creating material basic data, create plant views etc
Which is the appropriate workflow and is there a standard one as a template?
Thanks
Antonis

Hello,
I feel it is better that you use the standard business object BUS1001006 for your requirement related to the material management as some of the events which are obsolete in the business object BUS1001 have been redefined in BUS1001006.
Events like "Material created" and "New View for the material Created" are redefined which I think you need for your requirement.
Hope this will help.

Which business object to be used BUS2015 or BUS2009

Hi Workflow gurus,
I have an issue in sending external mail when Purchase requisition is saved.
Issue:
When purchase requisition is saved, I need to send an external mail to MS outlook of the approver. Here the issue is whether I should use the business object BUS2105 or BUS2009.
BUS2015 is for Overall release. BUS2009 is item-level release. Since I need to send one mail to each approver based on item value.
Here I am using BUS2015 and get the line item details like price, purchase group and release code from the table and segregating items based on item value and release code.
Then sending one mail to each approver stating You have PR and line items 1, 3, to approve.
However our on-site people asking me to use the business object BUS2009, Please let me know am I doing correct or I should use business object BUS2009. If I have to use business object BUS2009 how should I sent the external mail to individual approver for multiple line items.
Your thoughts and ideas are appreciated.
Regards

Hi..
Check release strategy used for PR. If release strategy is configured for overall release of requisition, you can use BUS2105. (Check IMG > Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase requisition > release procedure > set up procedure with classification > release groups. Check tick on overall release)
In case release strategy is configured as item level release, use objet BUS 2009.

Problem with PermGen memory (Java) - Tomcat Server - Business Object XI

We have installed Business Objects XI on a W2003 Standard with SP2 (x86), using Tomcat as web server and MySQL as DBMS. The server has 4 GB of RAM and dual-core processor. From the beginning we have been given the memory problems of the Java virtual machine. The exception that occurs is of type "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space failure". We modify environment variables (JAVA_OPTS) -XX: PermSize = 256m and-XX: MaxPermSize = 512m and install the monitor LambdaProbe to see the use made of memory. We note that at no time was the PermGen memory indicated by these variables, continuing in that has a default 64MB. For this reason we decided to change the Tomcat 5.5 BO included in the version 6.0.20 and also updated Java to version 1.6.0_18-b07, and make deployment by wdeploy.bat file that comes with BusinessObjects (changing config.tomcat55 and tomcat55.xml). The deployment was successful and everything works, but as with the previous version of Java / Tomcat, shortly PermGen memory fills and returns to "hang". In this latest version of Tomcat installed as a service, do not use environment variables, use an application, "Configure Tomcat", which is a tab to pass parameters to the JVM. After looking at many sites, I have seen to be putting "-D" to pass the parameter. Currently this is my configuration:
-Dcatalina.home = C: \ Program Files \ Apache Software Foundation \ Tomcat 6.0-Dcatalina.base = C: \ Program Files \ Apache Software Foundation \ Tomcat 6.0-Djava.endorsed.dirs = C : \ Program Files \ Apache Software Foundation \ Tomcat 6.0 \ endorsed-Djava.io.tmpdir = C: \ Program Files \ Apache Software Foundation \ Tomcat 6.0 \ temp-Djava.util.logging.manager = org.apache.juli . ClassLoaderLogManager-Djava.util.logging.config.file = C: \ Program Files \ Apache Software Foundation \ Tomcat 6.0 \ conf \ logging.properties-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote-D-Xms2g-D-Xmx2g-D -XX: + UseConcMarkSweepGC-D-XX:-D PermSize = 256m-XX: MaxPermSize = 512m-Daf.configdir = C: / Program Files / Business Objects / Dashboard and Analytics 12.0-D-verbose: gc-D-XX : + PrintGCTimeStamps-D-XX: + PrintGCDetails
I tried changing the values of-XX: PermSize and XX: MaxPermSize, and modifying the various policies of the Garbage Collector (-XX: + UseConcMarkSweepGC,-XX: + UseParNewGC,-XX: + UseParallelGC, ...), but nothing. Any idea how to get change the value of the report? Or how to solve this problem?
Thank you!

Victor,
Is the Product you are using BusinessObjects Enterprise XI (Release 1)?
With XIR2 and XI31, Tomcat 5.0 and Tomcat 5.5 are included with the software, and when installed with the BOE installer, you will get an application installed to the startmenu named "Tomcat Configuration".
Using this "Tomcat Configuration" utility, there are several configuration options available. On the JAVA tab, you will see the JAVA_OPTS that are set (These are prefixed with "-D") and also your initial and max memory sizes are listed at the bottom (Max 1024 by default in XI31).
Here is the default setting for permsize in XI31 Tomcat:
-XX:MaxPermSize=256M
From your post, your issue might be the spaces in between your values (there should be no spaces, each "-" parameter on its own line).
I would suggest starting Tomcat and reviewing your stdout.log file to review what options were set.
Hope that helps
-Brian

Migrating Unmanaged Reports from CE 10 to Business Objects XI R2

Hello all,
We are in the process of migrating our report server from CE 10 to BOJ XI R2.
I'm having issues trying to access Unmanaged Reports using a URL. In CE10 we were able to access unmanaged reports using a URL such as HTTP://<servername>/crystal/enterprise10/MyReport.rpt
But now in BOJ XIR2, when accessing reports using an equivalent URL such as http://<servername>/businessobjects/MyReport.rpt
or
http://<servername>/businessobjects/enterprise115/MyReport.rpt I get the below error
WCA plugin error
Message:An exception has occurred in the plugin with message:
Failed to initialize viewrpt component, with path
<INSTALLDIR>/bobje/enterprise115/solaris_sparc/wcs/components/libwcs_xn_reportviewer.so.
Component may be unavailable.
Is this approach not supported now? I know that in CE10 this approach was deprecated but still supported ( as mentioned in note "1217747 - Unmanaged URL web reporting does not work in Crystal Reports 9 (and later) " )
Or, is there something I'm doing wrong?
Is there a simple work around, short of hosting all the reports on the enterprise server and using any SDK.
Thanks for your help.
PS: I copied libwcs_xn_reportviewer.so from CE10 to the required dir in BOJ, and tried again. This time the library error was on another library. Error keeps cascading and I stopped. I know this is not the right approach, but this tells me they must have removed/changed this feature.
Previous Setup that works
Crystal Enterprise 10 on Solaris 8
Sybase 12
Weblogic
New Setup that I'm having issue with
Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 on Solaris 10. Installed SP2 followed by SP5
MySQL ( for testing only )
tomcat ( for testing only)

The first thing you will want to do is to publish all of your reports to Business Objects XI and make sure they all still work. Obviously they won't have the dynamic parameters anymore but you should just ensure they all work and are able to connect to their databases. You can use a tool like the publishing wizard to help you.
All the reports should now be available inside of XI.
Unfortunately you will need to manually modify all of the 400 reports to use the business objects Dynamic Cascading Parameters DCP.
There should be some DCP info in the Business Views documentation.
I hope this helps
