Connecting to an external dabase in workflow 7.2

Hi All,
I am trying to create a web service by using SQL component in workflow designer 7.2 to connect to an external database but could not have it done since I do not see any option to configure it. I know that Avoka has developed a QPAC called SQL+import which can use to connect to an external database but I would like to know if there is another option to do it so I can do a comparison before I decide to purchase it. Does any one have any idea please advise.
Thanks in advance,
Han Dao

Hi Brett,
According to your description, you are experiencing the error when you connect to SQL Server Analysis Services database on a SSIS package, right?
In your scenario, you said that the package can be executed successfully on your local environment, the issue only occurs on the SSAS server. So please ensure that the provider was installed on the server. Besides, here is a blog which describe how
to configure the Analysis Services Processing Task in SQL Server 2012 Integration Services， please refer to the link below to see the details.

Steps
1. Create an entry in tnsnames.ora for the remote oracle DB
2. Test sqlplus user/pass@remote
3. create a synonym which points to a table at remote DB check docs.oracle.com
4. user ABAP code execute SQL to insert data into local synonym which inturn updates the remote DB.
I have done this in the past, it works great.
It requries, DBA skills + ABAP programming

Excel SSAS Tabular error: An error occurred during an attempt to establish a connection to the external data source

Hello there,
I have an Excel report I created which works perfectly fine on my dev environment, but fails on my test environment when I try to do a data refresh.
The key difference between both dev and test environments is that in dev, everything is installed in one server:
SharePoint 2013
SQL 2012: Database Instance, SSAS Instance, SSRS for SharePoint, SSAS POWERPIVOT instance (Powerpivot for SharePoint).
In my test and production environments, the architecture is different:
SQL DB Servers in High Availability (irrelevant for this report since it is connecting to the tabular model, just FYI)
SQL SSAS Tabular server (contains a tabular model that processes data from the SQL DBs).
2x SharePoint Application Servers (we installed both SSRS and PowerPivot for SharePoint on these servers)
2x SharePoint FrontEnd Servers (contain the SSRS and PowerPivot add-ins).
Now in dev, test and production, I can run PowerPivot reports that have been created in SharePoint without any issues. Those reports can access the SSAS Tabular model without any issues, and perform data refresh and OLAP functions (slicing, dicing, etc).
The problem is with Excel reports (i.e. .xlsx files) uploaded to SharePoint. While I can open them, I am having a hard time performing a data refresh. The error I get is:
"An error occurred during an attempt to establish a connection to the external data source [...]"
I ran SQL Profiler on my SSAS Server where the Tabular instance is and I noticed that every time I try to perform a data refresh, I get the following entries:
Every time I try to perform a data refresh, two entries under the user name ANONYMOUS LOGON.
Since things work without any issues on my single-server dev environment, I tried running SQL Server Profiler there as well to see what I get.
As you can see from the above, in the dev environment the query runs without any issues and the user name logged is in fact my username from the dev environment domain. I also have a separated user for the test domain, and another for the production domain.
Now upon some preliminary investigation I believe this has something to do with the data connection settings in Excel and the usage (or no usage) of secure store. This is what I can vouch for so far:
Library containing reports is configured as trusted in SharePoint Central Admin.
Library containing data connections is configured as trusted in SharePoint Central Admin.
The Data Provider referenced in the Excel report (MSOLAP.5) is configured as trusted in SharePoint Central Admin.
In the Excel report, the Excel Services authentication settings is set as "use authenticated user's account". This wortks fine in the DEV environment.
Concerning SecureStore, PowerPivot Configurator has configured it the PowerPivotUnnattendedAccount application ID in all the environments. There is
NO configuration of an Application ID for Excel Services in any of the environments (Dev, test or production). Altough I reckon this is where the solution lies, I am not 100% sure as to why it fails in test and prod. But as I read what I am
writing, I reckon this is because of the authentication "hops" through servers. Am I right in my assumption?
Could someone please advise what am I doing wrong in this case? If it is the fact that I am missing an Secure Store entry for Excel Services, I am wondering if someone could advise me on how to set ip up? My confusion is around the "Target Application
Type" setting.
Thank you for your time.
Regards,
P.

Hi Rameshwar,
PowerPivot workbooks contain embedded data connections. To support workbook interaction through slicers and filters, Excel Services must be configured to allow external data access through embedded connection information. External data access is required
for retrieving PowerPivot data that is loaded on PowerPivot servers in the farm. Please refer to the steps below to solve this issue:
In Central Administration, in Application Management, click Manage service applications.
Click Excel Services Application.
Click Trusted File Location.
Click http:// or the location you want to configure.
In External Data, in Allow External Data, click Trusted data connection libraries and embedded.
Click OK.
For more information, please see:
Create a trusted location for PowerPivot sites in Central Administration:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee637428.aspx
Another reason is Excel Services returns this error when you query PowerPivot data in an Excel workbook that is published to SharePoint, and the SharePoint environment does not have a PowerPivot for SharePoint server, or the SQL Server Analysis
Services (PowerPivot) service is stopped. Please check this document:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff487858(v=sql.110).aspx
Finally, here is a good article regarding how to troubleshoot PowerPivot data refresh for your reference. Please see:
Troubleshooting PowerPivot Data Refresh:

I am trying to connect to an external projector

I have a 15" Macbook pro running Windows XP Pro bootcamp, I am trying to connect to an external projector using the Mac mini dvi to vga adaptor, I have now tried two different adaptors but still I cannot get the display to work.
Does anyone know if there is an update that needs to be installed or additional drivers that may need to be installed for this to work?
Anyone out there have any ideas?
Thanks
Simon

Thanks to the suggestion of downloading XP Service Pack 3, the problem seems to be resolved!

How can I connect an old external FDD Model# M0130 ?

I have an original Macintosh 128k with an external FDD DB-19 connection. Now I have 400k diskettes and I would like to get the files from these diskettes. Is there a way to connect this old External FDD that has an db-19 connection to a Quadra 650 or Powerpc 7600 so that I can get the files from the diskettes.
Or is there another way to be able to access these 400k diskettes from a Quadra 650 or PowerPc 7600.

400 KB diskettes are physically readable in any Apple 800 KB or combination 800KB/1.44 MB diskette drive. 400 KB diskettes are double density (2D or 2DD) media, but are written one one side only.
Support for 400 KB MFS diskettes was removed from the System Software at System 8.0, when HFS+ Extended was first introduced (but not made active until 8.1).
So you need an older Mac, like your Quadra 650, running Mac OS before Mac OS 8.
Do not try to fool the drive by using HD media -- the oxide is different, and the data will decay and become unreadable in a matter of a few minutes. Both types of diskettes are still available from the catalogs of major office supply retailers.

Hi - my 2011 Mac Pro no longer recognizes devices in the usb ports, I've been told it's the logic board. is there a way I can connect the iomega external hard drive to it through the firewire or thunderbolt ports?

Ok, fair enough. But since Job's death - Apple's control on leaks has been terrible. I got the new iPhone, and I like it - but it hasn't made nearly as big as an impression as previous ones. Because of the vast ammount of leaks. With the iPad mini leaks, it's 99% sure to come out next week.
Apple uses many manufacturers and it's massive also websites prefer to report on Apple whether true or false because it brings more hits.
Amd by "others" I meant other people on iPads - not other devices/manufacturers. It's possible to do so, I just want to know how. I honestly don't think we'll ever be in a Post-PC era until all tablets allow us to use USB in the way computers do.
No, USB is not the future, you missed the memo about cloud and wireless computing?

PC can't connect to AEB external drive, but Mac can.

Until recently I was able to connect to the external hard drive I have attached to my 1 generation Airport Extreme base station, version 5.6.1, running firmware version 7.6.4. It just stopped showing up one day and it gives me errors when I try to connect saying credentials are wrong, but they're not. I've tried everything I could find, including changing some Windows settings, reverting firmware, resets and a lot more. It used to automatically connect at start up, and showed up as a 'Z' drive, and worked great. The drive is fine as well, that was my first concern. I just connected to it from the File Browser app from the app store, and my other Apple devices, MPB, Apple TV, both see it. Just not my Windows 7 pc. This was my last resort after many hours of troubleshooting. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Standard network troubleshooting.
1. If you are using wireless plug in by ethernet.. never trust wireless.
2. If the computer gets an IP from the Extreme.. ping the extreme in a command window.. does it respond? It must respond before worrying about all the rest.. Windows can auto decide it is now in a public location and ram up the firewall. Make sure your network location is home.. and if necessary turn off the firewall.. the TC must respond at least by IP.. name as well would be good.
3. Open the Control Panel admin tools and make sure bonjour is running as a service. If it has failed stop and restart it.
4. Try mounting the hard disk directly by IP in windows explorer.
\\10.0.1.1 (replace with the actual IP address).
5. If it is only wireless that is the problem.. you probably had some sneaky windows security patch install and that ruined everything.. windows patches are often 2 steps forward.. 3 backwards.. you can no longer be attacked because you no longer have internet connection!!

I want to use the Thunderbolt connection for an external hard drive

I want to use the Thunderbolt connection for an external hard drive - so what port would I use on the MacBook Pro 13" for the display monitor. Thank you!

This is not the forum for MacBook Pro owners.
You just need to reformat the drive in Disk Utility and erase the drive and have Mac HFS.
If you did need to use NTFS then you would not want -3G but Paragon NTFS for OS X x. 10.0
Or buy something that isn't pre-formatted to Windows NT file system.
First though make sure you have backups of your system. TimeMachine being used now?
http://macperformanceguide.com/Mac-TimeMachine-drive.html
http://www.apple.com/support/timemachine/
Maybe cleanout some files you don't need.
Install a larger notebook hard drive even.
http://www.macsales.com/firewire has a lot of choice in Mac compatible drives and enclosures so you don't need to worry about Fantom not working at some point.

I have an apple macbook pro late 2013 15" retina display crashing on me when i am connected to an external display?

I got the following message after the crash, it happens a few times a day, my system is the base with 16gb ram late 2013 15" macbook pro retina. it only happens when i am connected to an external display, I do have a converter from vga to displayport. also, i run 4 different browsers in incognito mode as i do web testing and also have about 30 tabs open and excel and a few other apps open, not sure if this is what makes it happen or if it is the external display? it is under warranty, so if you see anything below that may relate to the hardware i can bring it in and get it fixed.

I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files. The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB. How do I solve problem?

I upgraded to Maverick and now Time Machine will not connect to the external hard drive to back up files. The external hard drive is a Western Digital "My Book Live" 2 TB. How do I solve problem?

I also had problem accessing my WD MyBookLive after upgrading to Maverick.
To resolve the problem, I used Connect To Server (Cmd K) to specify the IP address.
Then I enter a user id and password I created in the MyBookLive.
You can also verify that you have admin access to the MyBookLive using Safari or Chrome.
Just enter the MyBookLive IP address as the URL.

How can I connect to MySQL external database

Hello.
I have a SAP system running in SQL Server 2003.
I need to connect to external MySQL DB., to operate with this information in ABAP program.
I have done the step necesary... I mean I go to DBCO transaction and configure the connection like this:
DB CONNECTION --> AFIS
DBMS --> MSS
user name --> xxxxxx
DBpass -->xxxxxx / xxxxxx
Conn Info -->MSSQL_SERVER=192.168.1.233 MSSQL_DBNAME=alliance OBJECT_SOURCE=alliance
I do a test program, when I do the statement CONNECT TO, sy-subrc 0 and connection = DEFAULT... I mean, with this form I cannot connect to MySQL Database...
Can you help me to do this?? I think the problem it's the connection string in DBCO... but I'm not sure...,
Would be possible to connect by MySQL ODBC??? I mean , installing the ODBC driver in my SAP server, and using this in ABAP Program??
Thks.
DATA: BEGIN OF wa,
cod_modelo(20),
END OF wa.
DATA: dbs TYPE dbcon-con_name.
DATA: con(20) TYPE c.
DATA : ls_wa LIKE wa.
con = 'AFIS'. "DB Connection in DBCO above
EXEC SQL.
CONNECT TO :con
ENDEXEC.
WRITE sy-subrc. ---> The result it's 4
EXEC SQL.
GET CONNECTION :con
ENDEXEC.
WRITE : con. --> The result it's DEFAULT
EXEC SQL.
SET CONNECTION DEFAULT
ENDEXEC.
write : con. --> The result it's DEFAULT

> It's for it, that when I go to DBCO... in DBMS ---... I can select Oracle, MSSQLServer, DB2... for this Databases..., exists the library (lib_dbsl)???
yes, for all those databases exists the database interface library.
> In resume:
> IT'S NOT POSSIBLE CONNECT TO MYSQL!!! ... I cannot believe it!!!...
Well - as far as I remember there were some times ago efforts to port SAP applications to MySQL. That would explain why there's also a file "DDLMYS.TPL" created if you execute R3ldctl during a system copy - amongst DDL files for all other databases. I believe this was at the time MySQL was promoting SAPDB/MaxDB.
MySQL is historically not a database engine for software, that requires transactional integrity; there were extensions to support that (InnoDB or others) and there was no customer demand in getting MySQL as engine for SAP applications. And only develop an interface to be able to connect to an external MySQL engine is not worth the effort.
However, there is hope Some BusinessObjects applications also run with and against MySQL engines, depending on how the strategy to integrate those into the SAP software stack there may (or may not) be an interface for that database in the future.

IBook won't connect to USB External Hard Drives

I'm having a very strange issue with my ibook.
I have three external hard drives (two of the three can use usb and firewire). If I connect them with firewire they work fine. Same thing goes for usb flash drives and usb devices (mouse, keyboards, ect.), but if I connect a usb external hard drive it refuses to read it. It gets power but it will not appear on my mac .....
Now, I don't know if this has anything to do with it but a few years ago I was dj'ing with one of the hard drives that uses usb and firewire (it was connect using usb at the time). Something happened and the hard drive just stopped working. I thought it crashed at first. Its a western digital and every dj I know who has had a western digital has had it crash on them. I took it home and hooked it up to my pc just to make sure it was dead and it ran fine. Matter of fact I can still use it on my mac, firewire only though. Now no matter what type of external hard drive it is, if I am using usb it refuses to load on my mac.
Any ideas on why this would happen?
Also, the other two hard drives are both verbatim

The best idea I have is that the USB bus in your computer isn't supplying enough power to your devices. You could try picking up a powered USB hub and using that to see if that helps.
Alternatively, reset the PRAM, as outlined here:

Need help on connecting USB: 300GB external hard drive to wireless router

Hello,
I am trying to connect USB2.0 Maxtor 300GB external hard drive to my wireless router. Tried using Linksys new product NSLU2 which allows any USB cable external hard drive to NSLU2 device/network storage hub and then connect this NSLU2 directly to wireless router with the help of 10/100 Ethernet cable which allows to access external hard drive wirelessly.
Unfortunately Linksys NSLU2 is designed to supports USB external drives up to 250GB only.
Can any one advice me if there is any device I can use to connect my external hard drive to wireless router and access files without connecting/carrying USB external drive?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Arvind
