Cannot view data on physical layer on Oracle BI administration tool

Hi everyone
I have a schema1 and table1, table2, table3.
I have connect in odbc using the schema username and password and it was successful.
I can view the data using toad and sql oracle developer with schema username and password.
I also import the tables in Oracle BI administration tool with my schema username and password.
But my problem is i cannot view the data on the table in physical layer using my schema username and password.
Please help,
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm confused about the last bit, you did a database import to get the tables into the RPD, which worked, but now they are not showing in the phsyical layer of the rpd? They should be there under a database with the name of the ODBC/OCI that you used when you imported them.
If they are not there then this would make me think that the import of the tables has not worked, try importing just one and see what happens.

Matt

Unable to view data in Physical layer of RPD

I have OBIEE installed on my local machine using Oracle 10g as the database installed on a remote machine. I am able to create the DSN and test the connection pool on my local machine.
The Call interface is OCI 10g in the connection pool. I am able to import tables into the database in the Physical layer of the repository but when I try to VIEW Data in the physical layer, it throws me an error stating,
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor at OCI call OCILogon.
nQsError: 17014 Could not connect to Oracle Database.
I have oracle 10g client installed on my local machine. I am able to view the tables and the data from SQL PLus. In OBIEE i am able to import tables but cannot view data.
Any suggestions on what could be causing this?

Sounds like one of my common issues. After you do the import, go back and check the connection pool. What I typically run into is that it has switched to the OCI connection rather than the ODBC connection used for the import, but it is still using the name of the ODBC DSN that was used for the import. Change it to the TNS name or the host:port/service and try again.

Admin Tool Error When Viewing Data in Physical Layer nQSError: 43093

I am trying to view the data in my Admin Tool in the Physical Layer, I am getting:
[NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred.
[nQSError: 43093] An error occurred while processing the EXECUTE PHYSICAL statement.
[nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 904, message: ORA-00904: "STUDENT_NUMBER": invalid identifier at OCI call OCIStmtExecute.
[nQSError: 17010] SQL statement preparation failed.
I know why I am getting the ORA-00904 error (the data structure in the external database has changed the the column STUDENT_NUMBER does not exist). However, I am getting TNS Listener errors when trying to re-import the changed data structure (import -> through server). I have checked my ODBC connection and it seems that is not the issue. This functionality existed before (I did pull in the data structure, that is where my error is originating from). Is there something I am missing?
Any insight is appreciated.
Thank you,
Kyle

Hi,
After an upgrade, these kind of issues can happen for several reasons as below
1. Wrong OCI Call Interface. If ODBC 3.5 has been used an Interface in 10g, then the upgraded .rpd might still be using the same even when you have got a number of different options to choose from in 11g. To resolve issues of this type change the underlying database version in the physical layer of the .rpd. Once, you make this change you can see a variety of changes in the queries, performance etc for good.
2. After you did a 'View Data' on the table, go through the NQQuery.log to see the query it is firing (Yes, you need to have log level set for this user though) and analyze it from the DB end. See, if you run the query in the DB it is fast, but if it is the Admin tool that hangs up with this query. In this case check the network speed, database settings, system DSN driver etc.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,

No data When click view data in physical table.

Hi all,
I am a new one for OBIEE 11.1.1.5.
I met a problem when I creating a RPD.
After I load all table to physical layer, I found only one table show me no data, then I go back to check the DB and existing data in that table.
Would someone tell me how to fis this issue?
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Anne

Steps to check it your end
1)did u update rowcount for that table? try to update row count in that table and then try to view data in physical layer.
two ways--
(RPD-->tools menu-->options-->update all row count and also u can do it in physical layer -->just right click of required table and u can see update row count just select it then it will update it. after that u can try to test it.
1) if you past it screen short/error message it could help to find the root cause
2) make sure that table --> pointing connection pool info and user and password etc
Thanks

Creating filtered view on the physical layer ussing session variable USER

Hi:
I´m creating a view on the physical layer, the view needs to be created dynamically. So depending on the user (using the session variable USER) the view is created with the data a particular user is able to see.
Fisrt I imported the table and changed it´s properties to be created through a "Select Statement" so i don´t needed to change the mapping on the bussiness model layer.
The consistency check was OK but i´m not able to see data in answers, even using the Administrator user. Have anyone tried to do this? Here is my query.
Thanks

Select * from D_ESTRUCTURA_RH2 where Region_ID

where exists (select 1 from APP_INDPERSONAL_DM.Autorizacion a, usuarios c
where a.app_id = 1
and a.usuario_id = c.Usuario_Id
and UPPER(c.Nombre_Usuario)=UPPER(':USER')

) seguridad

a. REGION_ID = seguridad.REGION_ID
)

whay not use the same filter in the content tab of the logical table source?
check the physical sql sent to databse using web-admin-manage sessions-view log and see if there is any unexpected behavior. also run the same query in db and see iff you get the results in databse itself.

Cannot view data in Data Services

I'm having an issue viewing data from ANY sources (both Oracle and SQL Server) on only 2 PCs (the rest work fine). The connection makes it to the database, but no data is returned. Accessing data via Data Stores> right click > View Data I simply get an empty gray box. Accessing via Data Flows returns the name of the table. I'm able to return all the metadata about the tables, just not the data within.
I've tried all the basics... rebooting, uninstalling/reinstalling.
Has anyone experienced this issue and/or know how to resolve it?

Hi,
You can use the debug ooption too.
{Yes, i have read werner's column somewhere about the oracle, if source and target are in same user then it woudn't work)
Correct me if iam deviated.
Thanks

AWM and Oracle BI Administration Tool

What's the relation between Analytic Workspace Manager and Oracle BI Administration Tool?
They both can build cubes.
So can I use BI Administration Tool of OBIEE only not in combination with Analytic Workspace?
If I only use BI Administration Tool of OBIEE to create cube is there any other problem?
My database is 10g not 11g and I use Analytic Workspace Manager 10.2.0.3.0A.
I feel all functions of AWM are included in OBI-EE administrator, so for what do we use AWM? Can we use OBI-EE administrator only?
I am exploring every aspect of OBIEE usage.
What's the difference between "building" and "defining" the cube? Physical data generation?
I feel in 10g AWM is use less at all...
Edited by: wbb826 on Apr 8, 2010 1:24 PM

Both comments are correct.
You can build your cubes in AWM which will map data from your relational tables and allow you to aggregate the numbers.
In 11g cube views are created already and can be imported into OBIEE to create a reporting layer. The plugin works well. In 10g you need to define a whole heap of metadata on the OLAP side to expose the data within cubes to then import into OBIEE.
You are correct in saying OBIEE can create and report on multi-dimensional data, but the problem is with performance. OBIEE will have to aggregate the data on the fly and then return results. Whereas if you leave the aggregation to the OLAP side you will be able to report on pre-aggregated data inside of OBIEE using the cube views.
If you are starting this exercise, then i suggest you go with an 11g level-based hierarchy setup and use the plugin for OBIEE.

Merging with Oracle BI Administration Tool

I have specific question about merging with Oracle BI Administration Tool.
At first, I copied rpd by merging with no common parent. After that, I renamed all objects in business layer and presentation layer, renamed name of database, name of connection pool, name of scheme in physical layer and deleted old aliases. And now, I want to merge my original rpd and final rpd, but I got this error:
Following objects didn't merge properly:
Logical Column ...
Logical Column ...
Logical Column ...
Logical Column ...
How can I solve this problem?
Edited by: kubes on 29.01.2012 23:58

Hi,
check whether you are merging as "No common parent " or with "Common parent".

Oracle BI Administration Tool - OCI problems

Hi
I've experienced the following problems with the Admin tool, when importing metadata and data through an OCI connection pool :
Oracle BI Admin tool crashes when I try to "View Data" on a table containing a SPACE in one of the columns of a row. Strange but true. e.g. I created a dummy table to prove this. Table ABC, Row 1 Col1 = ' ', Col2 = 'ABC', Row 2 Col1 = 'X', Col2 = 'X'.
The admin tool give me the following message The instruction at ….. referenced memory at ……… The memory could not be “read”
When I update the SPACE to NULL or something else, it does not crash.
Also when introducing the OCI connection pool, the Presentation Server just hangs, when I try to login to it.
These problems seem to be quite strange. I'm running ORACLE BI EE 1.0.1.3.3 on Windows 2003 server.
Has anyone experienced these problems ? Please help.
Thanks
Cheers
Greg

Hi Venkat
The SPACE error appears in a pop up window and reads :
Title (Online) Oracle BI Administration Tool - AnalyticsWeb: AdminTool.exe - Application Error.
Message : The instruction at "0x78144a51" referenceed memory at "0x00000005". The memory could not be "read".
Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program
As for the presentation services, I think the initial install was the vanilla install for Windows. Presentation services was probably re-installed using the same default settings.
As per my previous reply to Adrian, the problems do not appear on Linux, using the same Windows repository file with the same OCI connectivity set up.
Thanks
Cheers

Oracle BI Administration tool - Guide

Hi all,
I have created an essbase cube using adventure works RDBMS in essbase studio.
I have deployed it to essbase server.
Now i want to create an analysis using this in my oracle BI EE.
So I have used Oracle BI Administration tool and imported that essbase. I have dropped that essabase from physical layer to presentation layer and exported to oracle bi server.
While creating analysis using this i got something like
Gen1,Product
Gen2,Product
Gen3,Product
Gen1,Geography
Gen2,Geography
in all the hierarchies. I don't know how to rename it.
Anyone can help me how to replace it. Also if you have any documentation or forum related to this please provide me?
I am new to this tool.
Thanks

Oracle BI Administration tool has stopped working

Just now finished the 11g installation.But im not able to open BI Administrator.Im getting this error.Please help.
"Oracle BI Administration tool has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.Please close the program"

I followed the below steps(taken from this forum) for installing OBIEE11g 64 bit version in a 64 bit machine.Installation completed successfully.But not able to open BI Administration tool.Any suggestions???
There is not a particular 64bit installation. I think it works like this: if you are using a 64bit JDK the apps server is also running 64 bit.
You can find the generic jar here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/wls-main-097127.html and take the generic one (http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls1033_generic.jar)
You install this by a command like this (you have to look up the documentation): java -XXm.... .... wls1033_generic.jar
Then a installer pops up.
So these were my steps:
- installed RCU
- installed 64 bits JDK (jdk-6u21-windows-x64.exe)
- installed Weblogic (wls1033_generic.jar)
- installed OBI as "software only"
- configured OBIi (config.bat you can find in <obi11g home>\Oracle_BI1\bin)
All together it does not take much longer then the 32bit install. Only some extra steps to do.

Oracle BI Administration Tool Unix

Hi ,
Does anyone have an idea how to launch 'Oracle BI Administration Tool' on UNIX.
Under Winows it is "Start > Programs > Oracle Business Intelligence > BI Administration" , but in the official doc, launching it on UNIX env is not mentionned ...
Thx all !

Admin tool is Windows based only.
To open rpd online mode from Windows you need to have DSN pointing to your Linux/Unix box.
Check these
