Connection Type Management

We want to write a number of free hand SQL reports. There is no benefit to using a universe as we do not want adhoc report creation against the source database.
Can I centrally create a user connection for this database and then have the 10+ free hand SQL reports use that central connection?
When we change the password for that user in the future, can I just update that one central connection and the reports will continue to work OK without any intervention?
I have heard that the only way to do this is to use a universe, with no classes, etc. and build the free hand SQL reports against this "dummy" universe.
Thanks.

Hello Jay,
I think you refer to a Webi problem and I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Web Intelligence|SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to the creation and design of Web Intelligence documents using the Web Intelligence Report Panels. This includes areas such as universe connectivity, prompts, charting, formatting, filters, and formulas.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all Webi queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Best regards,
Falk

  • Missing Connection Types in Report Data Source Properties

    I am running three installations of SharePoint 2013 with SQL 2012 for Business Intelligence, with Kerberos working.
    I have been having intermittent issues with SQL Reporting Services in a multi-server configuration, but finally had it working in all three environments.  We discovered many of our issues were caused by master page customizations which we have now disabled
    temporarily while we work on function issues.
    However, we started having a new problem with Reporting Services on just ONE of the environments, and we are not sure what happened.  Most everything appears to still be working, except Reporting Services. I have verified that features are enabled
    in both the farm and the site collection, as well as insured managed content types are being allowed on the target document libraries.  I also verified the Reporting Service properties and database connections.  However, I have found two clear symptoms
    which I can find no other information regarding (in logs or in online searches):
    1) If we try to create a new "Report Data Source" using the SharePoint UI, it will open a new Data Source Properties window, but in the "Data Source Type" field, there are no values available for me to select my connection type (e.g.,
    Microsoft SQL Server).
    2) In Central Administration, while administering the Reporting Services Service Application, I can manage a majority of the settings, including System Settings, Manage Jobs, Key Management, etc.  However, if I click on the link for "E-mail Settings,"
    I get the dreaded "Sorry Something went wrong screen," with an error saying that "Object reference is not set to an instance of an object."
    So I am hoping someone has an idea of where I can look for additional information on this issue, or even better, knows what I am missing to get Reporting Services functional again in this environment!
    Thanks in advance for any help provided.

    However, we started having a new problem with Reporting Services on just ONE of the environments, and we are not sure what happened.
    Hi Elohir,
    I assume you are installing Reporting Services SharePoint mode for SharePoint 2013, you need to:
    1. Install "Reporting Services – SharePoint" and "Reporting Services add-in for SharePoint Products" on the SharePoint server that the SSRS service will run on.  All other SP servers only need the "Reporting Services
    add-in for SharePoint Products."   
    2. Run the Insall-SPRSService and Install-SPRSServiceProxy on Central Admin and SSRS server.
    3. Start SSRS Service only on desired SSRS servers.
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219068.aspx
    Since the issue occurs only to one of the environments, please provide more information about your multi-server configuration, and point out the server where the issue occurs.

  • PC Suite - no USB and Serial Connection Type avail...

    I have been trying to solve this problem for days now. I have Windows XP and Nokia 5310. After I installed Nokia PC Suite, there is no USB or Serial connection type in the Connection Manager; it only has Blue Tooth and Infrared conection available. I have install and uninstalled PC suite and used PC Suite Cleaner to clean the installation. I also went into the add and remove program in the control panel and click on "change" to fix the Nokia Connection Manager and Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver. It still didn't work. The thing is that the first time when installed PC Suite on my laptop, it did have USB connection option. Later after uninstalled PC Suite and reinstalled it, it start to have this problem. I am extremly frustrated. Can anyone help please?

    Thanks for your reply. I have solved the problem by following your instruction below:
    Go to Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Software, there you need to uninstall all Nokia software (Nokia PC Suite, Nokia Cable driver, PC Connectivity Solution ...)
    Download and run Nokia PC Suite Cleaner
    Reboot your computer
    Download and install PC Suite here.
    Connect your phone via USB cable (if possible use a different USB jack) and follow the instructions on the screen.
    Maybe when I uninstalled Chinese version of PC suite, the order in which it was uninstalled was not the one you suggested above. So,I followed your instruction and uninstall order to uninstall PC Suite again. I also uninstalled all the antivirus, spyware, and firewall before I reinstall the PC Suite. It worked; then, I reinstalled all the other security software again after I had reinstalled the PC Suite. Although it worked, I still didn't know what exactly cause the problem the first place, PC Suite version, Security protection software, or the order which it was uninstalled? All it matters is it's working.

  • PC Suite - there is no available connection type

    OK,
    I'm running XP SP2 on an IBM t30 laptop. Looking to have all 3 connection methods available. Bluetooth is Widcomm 3.0.x and PC Suite version is 6.8.22.
    Initially installed PC Suite fine, but had problems with getting bluetooth connection (IRComm and Cable were fine). Read that best way round this was the reinstall after doing some fiddling with the bluetooth setup. Duly reinstalled, only now I get error when I start the connection manager or manage connections. either "there is no available connection type" for the first or "connection to PC suite failed code:Init IMediaControl2".
    In order to try and deal with this I have, Uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Uninstalled the app and run the PC Suite cleanup tool 3.3 reinstalled the app. Uninstalled the app, run PC suite cleanup, removed all nokia keys from the registry, run cleanup again and reinstalled. The problem persists, my patience does not.
    Help?
    Dom

    My experience may also be relevant, and since it took me two whole days to remedy it (call me slow, but I'm persistent), I'll share it. I too stopped being able to get a Bluetooth connection in PC Suite, even though the PC could see the phone (6230) in Bluetooth settings and I could see some of the folders on the phone.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled PC Suite countless times, did all the spring cleaning I was told to do, nothing. So I thought maybe there is a problem with the Bluetooth stack.
    I have a Dell Inspiron 6000, which uses Bluetooth stuff from Toshiba, so I went to their site, http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/. It said to check out Device Manager, and, what do you know, all the Toshiba Bluetooth drivers were missing. I have no idea how, but anyway, I downloaded a new stack at http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/pages/download​.php
    I installed it, cross my fingers, prayed to the Bluetooth Fairy, and YES YES YES! It works. The end.

  • "Cannot use the connection type ...."

    Nokia 6233
    Windows XP SP2
    LaunchApplication.exe v 6.82.70.1
    Bluetooth "i.Tech BlueCON U"
    O2 Bluetooth Dongle Drivers
    Using Bluetooth OK to download photos to PC, but no other function so far.
    Trying Nokia PC Suite to perform various functions - failure in all cases, common message is "Cannot use the connection type. Check that the needed hardware, software and drivers are available".
    No clues anywhere as to what is needed.
    Bluetooth clearly works. Nokia PC Suite can't use it.
    Totally stuck - wish to use PC connection to synchronise address books.
    Help, please.

    Hi,
    I think that PC Suite is not support your Bluetooth driver. Here you can find what drivers are supported:
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=connectivity&message.id=114
    Anyway, if Microsoft's BT driver support your BT HW, you can try to that stack also...
    So, if you want to try to use MS BT driver:
    1. Go to Control Panel, System, Hardware and Device Manager.
    2. Open Bluetooth Devices, select that device, click Action, Uninstall and OK.
    3. Click Action and Scan for hardware changes.
    (windows should automatic install MS BT driver)

  • Cannot select the connection type on the Nokia PC ...

    Operating System: MS Windows 7 (x64) Home Basic Service Pack 1
    Mobile Phone:        Nokia 5130 Xpress Music Edition (V.10.10) and Nokia E66
    Connection type:   USB Cable (CA-101) with Nokia PC Suite 7.1
    Problem:    I cannot select the connection type on the Nokia PC Suite after running the programme and connecting them 
    Description: It was connected only one device, and it found that I cannot select the type of connection; however, I can run well on the Mass Storage of the both devices. Now, I guess that the problem is capability of MS Windows in Home Basic Edition because Ovi Suite cannot work on the version (Nokia's website shows on the systematic requirement)

    many PC Suite reinstallations after disabling anti-virus
    On some installations, I would get an error "Service cannot be started" but when I cancel and restart the installation it goes straight through - I always end up with a blank window in the Connection Manager.  Looked for some other issues found in older forums addressing older versions, nothing has worked yet.  More help, please.

  • JDBC(JNDI):Connection dinamically managed

    Hi all,
    I'm using
    1) Crystal Reports 2008 for the reports' design,
    2) Java Reporting Component (version 18.8.4.1094) for the integration in java environment,
    3) JBoss (version 4.2.3) as Application Server
    4) Oracle 11 as DBMS
    in a web application.
    When I create a report using JDBC (JNDI) and specify as the "Connection Name (optional)" the following string "java:jdbc/name_data_source",
    How is managed the connection of the report and any sottoreports? In other words are the connections dynamically managed by the container web or ejb?
    Thank you very much.

    Hi, Andrea,
    I'm gonna' make a few guesses here:
    2) Java Reporting Component (version 18.8.4.1094)
    I think you mean Crystal Reports for Java (CRJ) 2.8 version 12.2.209.1094. Neither the JRC (the name for the 1.x series) nor the CRJ (the 2.x series) has any version number in the 18.x range.
    sottoreports
    I think that means "subreports."
    are the connections dynamically managed by the container web or ejb?
    There are two ways the connections can be managed. If you've created a JNDI connection (a named connection), then you can base a report off of it, then at a later date change where the JNDI connection itself points to and the report should still work correctly, as long as the new target database shares the same schema as the original.
    The other way you can manage the connection is to use code to change the database connection information inside the report itself. In this way, you could change it from one JNDI connection to another or even to another type of connection altogether. Again, however, the schemas between the old and the new connections must match.
    Regards,
    Bryan

  • No Connection Type for the 10g app server in jdev 11?

    how to i connect to a 10g app sever in jdev. there is no connect type for 10g which one if any should i use?
    thanks
    Neil

    There is no direct connection to OAS 10g - note that ADF 11g applications can't be deployed to OAS 10g as they require Java EE 5.0 support.
    You can create EAR/WAR files from JDeveloper and use Ant to deploy to OAS 10g or use the OAS 10g management console to deploy those files.

  • Passivate option in VO transient attributes & AM connection type

    Hi
    My English isn't very good.
    I use Jdeveloper 11.1.1.3.0
    I have 2 questions:
    1. I defined some View Obj and in each View Obj I made transient attributes. I don't know if the Passivate option of these transient attributes should be enable or not?
    2. for AM connection type I use JDBC DataSource : "jdbc/ConnectionName". If I change JDBC DataSource to "java:comp/env/jdbc/ConnectionName", does it exist any difference?
    Habib

    If your transient attributes are updateable, but you use them only within the scope of a single request (e.g. you set the value within a particular request and use it only until the end of this request but not later), then you do not have to passivate them. However, if they are updateable and you need their values to survive across multiple requests, then you must ensure that these attributes are passivated. In order to configure them to passivate you should do the following:
    1. Check the checkbox "Passivate State (e.g. Current Row, Bind Variables, etc.)" in the section "General/Tunning" in VO's definition dialog box;
    2. Either check the checkbox "Including All Transient Values" in the same section or leave it unchecked but check the checkbox "Passivate" in the definition of the corresponding VO attributes.
    N.B. The setting "Include All Transient Values" affects not only the transient VO attributes but the SQL-derived VO attributes (that are not entity-based) too.
    The configuration parameter "jbo.txn.disconnect_level" has nothing to do with passivation/activation. The correct way to test if your VOs behave correctly under passivation/activation is to disable AM pooling (e.g. to uncheck the checkbox "Enable Application Module Pooling" in the corresponding AM Configuration dialog box). When AM Pooling is disabled ADF passivates the corresponding AM state at the end of each HTTP request and activates it at the beginning of next request and so on. In this way you can check if your VOs are passivation/activation-safe.
    Please, have a look at the article [url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/web.1111/b31974/bcstatemgmt.htm#sm0318]Application State Management in the documentation for more information and detailed explanation.

  • No connection types available

    What version of Windows is being used? WinXP Pro
    What Service Pack is installed? SP2
    What version of PC Suite is installed? 6.82.22.0
    What is the connection method, cable, bluetooth or IR? cable

    "There is no available connection type and therefore connection to the phone cannot be established."
    "Failed to detect available connection types. Please reinstall Nokia Phone Suite"
    and when i go to manage connections, I get:
    "Connection to Nokia PC Suite failed. Please reinstall Nokia PC Suite (Code: InitIMediaControl2)
    I've reinstalled several times but I still can't connect.

    I sent an email about this to Nokia today. I will await a response. Here is the email in part as I am having the same issue and have tried EVERYTHING to resolve it to no avail. You'd think they would have resolved it by now after four months of the start of this thread:
    ****************** My Email to Tech *******************
    My phone model is a Nokia 6265i. I'm running Windows Vista and using an authentic Nokia CA-53 cable. I have tried NUMEROUS times to connect my phone to my PC. I also tried connecting to my friend's computer (who is running XP with SP2). It wouldn't respond in XP either. I also tried purchasing a MiniSD card for the phone. It then at least acknowledged that there was some sort of connection to the PC, however the prompt I was getting was not that mentioned in the instructions (which I have read numerous times over, very carefully).
    I got the prompt "Use phone as storage device?" with the options "OK" and "Exit." I have tried both responses while trying to connect to the PC Suite version 6.83.8.7 (downloaded on May 17, 2007) via the "Get Connected!" button and neither have worked. I have brought my phone to my service provider (Cricket Communications) to troubleshoot as well. None of my efforts have yielded any results. ANY results. I get absolutely no response from my PC whatsoever that anything has even been connected. Not even in the device manager or My Computer.
    I have also tried two different cables. My last resort is to upgrade the phone firmware which is currently version:
    V HL100V1000.nep
    17-05-06
    RM-66
    (c)NMP
    listed in exactly that way on the phone. But I do not believe this should be a problem. Or perhaps something is wrong with the phone itself, but I do not see how that could be either.
    I have not made some stupid simple mistake such as plugging in the cable during installation either. I have been through this numerous times, with & without Nokia tech support via phone.
    I am STRONGLY inclined to blame the software. I think that PC Suite 6.83.8.7 is not as Vista compatible (or XP for that matter) as stated on the download site.

  • How do I connect my Centro to the Internet via bluetooth over PC's Internet? Where is Centro's PPP Connection Type? How do I setup Login Script for bluetooth connection?

    I am trying to set up bluetooth on the Centro to connect to the internet via my PC's internet.
    HotSync over bluetooth works successfully.
    Computer specs: Toshiba P205-S6277; Bluetooth Stack v5.10.04 (currently using); Bluetooth Monitor v3.01 (to use Vista's built-in bluetooth)
    I think I have narrowed my problem down to 3 things.
    (1) Finding Network Access properties (to allow connected devices to access the internet)
    (2) Finding Centro's Network Connection Type: PPP
    (3) Finding the correct Login Script to use
    for (1) I think I've looked everywhere; found nothing on Network Access. 
    Checked control panel: only Bluetooth Local COM
    Right-clicked bluetooth icon > Settings: File transfer, PAN Networking, PAN DHCP server, AV controls. Other bluetooth settings are for file transfer or object push. I don't see anything like this.
    I'm stumped on (2). It seems as if palm removed this option under Centro's Advanced network settings .
    Nearly all the forums that I read says to choose Connection Type: PPP.
    (3) Found 2 scripts that seemed would work. I don't know how it exactly works but it sounds workable.
    First script:
    Send: CLIENT
    Send: CLIENT
    Wait for: CLIENTSERVER
    End:
    Script 1 Connect Log:
    =======================================
    Connect Log
    S: client
    S: client
    R:
    Err: 0x121F   <<<netErrUserCancel b/c I canceled it. 
    Not connected
    ========================================
    I canceled it because the process would stay on "Signing In" then it automatically "Canceled" itself.
    Second script:
    Send CR:
    Delay: 1
    Send: CLIENT
    Wait For: CLIENTSERVER
    End
    **UPDATE** I found on this forum (Reply # 3689) that the script is needed only if you are using Palm OS 4 or under. Centro uses Palm OS 5.49121. Can anyone support this?
    Even without the script it has problems "Signing In".
    I'm currently reading this site and trying out its decribed methods. I will update this thread when I get the results.
    I'm using the Centro. And If anyone's been able to successfully connect to the internet on the Centro via a bluetooth connection to the PC WITHOUT 3rd party applications, please share.  If not, please share any ideas.
    Thanks!

    I've been going at this for days, and have probably exhausted all the proposed solutions on the first 3 pages of various google searches. I'm getting the feeling that Vista users are pretty much SOL for the time being.
    For the record, I just tried out a few of the solutions (mRouter & SoftickPPP) on XP and they work perfectly.

    Integration between SAP BPC and SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.1 SP02 was implemented. SAP BO users can successfully connect to SAP BPC system.
    EPM connector was successfully installed and deployed in SAP BusinessObjects BI server.
    BPC ODBO 2.0 SP04 64BIT was installed in SAP BusinessObjects server.
    EPM connection was successfully created in SAP BusinessObjects CMC.
    EPM Add-in and BPC ODBO 2.0 SP04 32BIT was installed in another computer (let's call it CLIENT) which has MS Office 2007 32BIT installed.
    From CLIENT computer we have launched Excel manually and successfully created BPC connection with Connection Type - Local.
    Then we have logged into BI Launch Pad and launched New / EPM document (Excel). Excel has started.
    In EPM Add-in we have pressed Logon.
    In connection window selected SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise connection type.
    An error "Error while communicating with the server. Framework message: Authorization failed." appears.
    Before this error appears we are not getting any window where we could select EPM connection (created in CMC) nor the possibility to enter username or password.
    Looking forward you valuable comments and suggestions.
    Thank you in advance.

    Dear, Roberto,
    Our user has Full Access to all BPC tasks and it is administrator in BI system.
    Also we can successfully connect with the same user using Connection type "Local".
    We had done some investigation and in the BPC SQL Server trace log we can catch the following message when an error occurs:
    ==============[System Error Tracing]==============
    [System  Name] : BPCXMLAService [Message Type] : ErrorMessage [Job Name]    : ValidateUser [DateTime]    : 04/23/2014 10:58:06 [UserId]      : [Exception]    DetailMsg  : {System.Exception: Invalid user    at SAP.BPC.Services.Webservice.XMLAService.XMLAService.ValidateUser()} ==============[System Error Tracing  End ]==============
    It is very interesting that after the EPM workbook is launched via BI Launch Pad till an error occurs we are NOT provided with possibility to enter any username and password. So the EPM add-in should use the same user which was logged into BI Launch Pad - in our case the user with administrative rights both in BI Launch Pad and BPC systems. Am I missing anything?
    Looking forward your feedback.
    Thank you in advance.
    Best regards,
    Donatas

  • PC Suite says no connection types available - but ...

    I've a 6500 Slide. I've installed the latest PC Suite 7.0.8.2.
    I have Windows XP with Service Pack 3.
    I used to be able to connect with PC Suite and update (etc.) but recently, after the most recent PC Suite upgrade, it doesn't recognise 'CONNECTION TYPES' on my machine.
    The USB cable and port work fine - in Windows I can drag and drop files.
    So why won't PC Suite recognise the cable and allow me to use the mobile through PC Suite?
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything twice.
    I've removed batteries and SIM cards from the mobile etc.
    All help gratefully received.
    Thanks
