Error while creating Bi presentation service in obiee(11.1.1.3)

Hi,
Im using Jdeveloper(11.1.1.5) and OBIEE(11.1.1.3)
I created a ADF application in Jdev and when I try to create a BI presentation services I'm getting the following error message.
*Connection attempt failed.*
*java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to retrieve logon token. This version requires a BI build that implements the version 7 SOAP interface. Please verify that you are using the correct BI version.*
does the creation of presentation service in jdev(11.1.15) work only with OBIEE(11.1.1.5) and not OBIEE(11.1.1.3).
please help!
Thanks,
Venky

Venky,
The SOAP interface released with OBIEE 11.1.1.3 is version 6 (v6) as you can see from its WSDL URL.
This would leave one only to believe that the SOAP interface released with OBIEE 11.1.1.5 is version 7.

Unable to Sign In into presentation services and online RPD obiee11.1.1.3.0

Hi,

http://imageshare.web.id/images/y06x8bu0huhoisyqy718.jpg
while testing DSN also error
http://imageshare.web.id/images/zgq47suhrjabe3ye2ck.jpg
Last few months ago i have faced the same issue ..then i resolved below method
Unable to Sign In into presentation services and RPD obiee 11
Issue :I had a trouble to login into RPD (online mode) the Presentation services lately.
It was working fine before and after changed console user sequrity things changed and was having issues to login lately after that.
It always gives me invalid username/Password was entered message when I tried to login no matter what ever username I tried.
I was able to login into Enterprise manger and Weblogic Admin console successfully with out any issues. All the processes are up and running with out any issues.
Tried rebooting successfully and still it wont let me login into Answers. So I tried if i could login into Admin tool and it wont let me login there as well.
So I created new Admin user in the Weblogin console and tried to login using the new user and still no luck. The new admin will let me login into the EM and WLC but not into Answers and rpd.
I tried deleting old references of the user directories in the catalog and still no luck.
It has something to do with the credential store. What ever user name I created its not mapping it to the Answers/rpd inspite of both the services are running
Solution:
======
1. Please follow instructions given in
How to fix “Unable to Sign in. An error occured during Authentication" error when a user logs in OBIEE 11g (Doc ID 1302924.1) step by step, for those steps you have done, please double check and make sure what you've done are correct.
2. You are still not able to logon because you have missed a few steps as the following:
8. Edit the NQSConfig.INI file to reset the FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = YES to NO and restart the Oracle BI Servers.
9. Remove, set to none, or comment out the line (see UpgradeAndExit in the following example) added to the instanceconfig.xml file (that instructs Oracle BI Presentation Server to refresh GUIDs on restart).
10. <ps:Catalog xmlns:ps="oracle.bi.presentation.services/config/v1.1">
11. <ps:UpgradeAndExit>false</ps:UpgradeAndExit>
12. <ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>none</ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>
13. Restart the Presentation Server for the instanceconfig.xml file that was updated.
14. Make sure Oracle WebLogic Server and the system components are also running, if they are not running, restart them.
b) Relogin as the problematic user to verify if you still see the “Unable to Sign In” error
Step 2 : Delete user from rpd if present
a)Launch admin tool and open rpd in OFFLINE Mode
b)Click Manage > Identity > Users tab to verify if you see this user present
Note : Normally you will only see list of users when you open rpd in ONLINE mode. Unless the users were created manually in rpd, no users should be visible in OFFLINE mode
c)If the user is present, delete this user entry from rpd
d)save rpd and deploy this changed rpd using EM
e)restart OBI Server component
f)relogin as the problematic user to see if you still see “Unable to Sign In” error
Step 3 : Delete the cacheduserinfo file from webcatalog
If Step1 and Step2 does not work, then do the following
Note : In the example below, catalog name is SampleApp and the user who gets “invalid Login” error is Administrator user.
a)Take a backup of your webcatalog
b)Navigate to C:\OBIEE11G\instances\instance2\bifoundation\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\catalog\SampleApp\root\users\Administrator\_prefs
c)Delete the files name cacheduserinfo and cacheduserinfo.atr
d)Launch OBIEE 11.1.1.3 and test by logging in as the specific user.
the best one is 3rd one.
but the above all methods also not working
Kindly check and help me on that ...
Thanks

Integration of BI Publisher with presentation services

Hello,
I have installed and configured OBI Answers and Publisher in a Linux infrastructure and configured thro' Websphere/IHS. Answers/Dashboards is working fine. I am trying to integrate BI publisher with OBI answers/dashboards. This is working fine through OC4J but when I try to integrate through Websphere, I get a crypto error.
I have to deployed a plug-in in web server and tried to integrate BI publisher with presentation services through "cryptotools" and configuring it through instance config. When I hit http://myserver:port/xmlpserver I get "Error 500: com.phaos.crypto.CipherException ". Similarly when I select more products/BI Publisher through OBI Dashboards/Answers, I get the following
Reporting Login: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.phaos.crypto.CipherException; nested exception is: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.phaos.crypto.CipherException
I feel this is a common issue across both the end points. Has anyone come across this type of issue or similar issue ?
Help is greatly appreciated.
thx
Dinesh

I'm installing 10.1.3.4 and YES, i have installed BIP war in Websphere.
I think I may have resolved my original problem but faced with a different one now. I am able to logon to BI publisher standalone and integrated with OBI Answers (thro websphere). But when i click the dashboards link from BI Publisher, its going to the default OC4J installation and not my websphere. The similar re-direction works fine from OBI - Publisher but not from Publisher - OBI.
I need to find out, how its finding the server name and port to redirect from BIP -> OBI. Can you guys help please ?
thx

OBIEE 10g Linux Presentation Services not starting

Hi,
I'm having some problems starting up the Presentation Services. The oc4j service and the Server (run-sa.sh) service started with no problems but when i try to start the Presentation Services i get the following error on the sawserver.out.log:
Oracle BI Presentation Services 10.1.3.4.1 (Build 090414.1900) are starting up.
Type: Error

I tried to find something similar to my problem on older threads but couldn't find anything.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi,
Is this the only error that you got in log files. Can you change the presentation catalog name and give it a try. Kill all the services. Start OC4J and then start the services.

Presentation services not starting,StartOC4J window closing automatically

Hi All,
After i create one repository,i started startOC4J but this window is opening and closing in few seconds automatically.Even the presentation services also not starting.
it is giving
"Windows couldn't start the Oracle BI Presentation server on Local computer.For more information,review the system event log.If this is a non-Microsoft service,Contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code -1"
Can anyone help me plz...
Thanku

Reddy,
I'm sure you have messed up with your NQSConfig.INI file. Make sure, its pointing to the exact name of the new Repository that you have created under REPOSITORY Section like
[ REPOSITORY ]
Star = samplesales.rpd, DEFAULT;
And also, this RPD samplesales.rpd should be present in \OracleBI\server\Repository folder.
Cross-check your instanceconfig.xml file as well..
Hope this helps

Unable to login to presentation services after doing the upgrade 10g to 11g

Hi All,
I had a running instance of OBIEE 11g 11.1.1.6.0, my 11g rpd and webcatlog was working fine. Imp to note is that, I had configured external LDAP authenticator and wasn't using the weblogic embedded LDAP.
Now, today, I had to updrage 10g RPD and Webcatlog to 11g and merge into the my current 11g system. I ran the upgrade utitlity and it completed the upgrade successfully but now when I try to login into presentation services using the weblogic user, the presentation services gets hung. It doesn't even give me a message like "Invalid login or password" I DON't get any message but my Presentation services and RPD gets hung( when I try to open it online)
Also, I am trying to refresh the GUIDs after making the necessary changes in the config and instanceconfig.xml file i start the obi server and presentation server, it doesn't come up. So I am unable to refresh my GUIDs
What could be issue here? Do I need to fix an credential file? Please let me know.
Thanks,
Ronny

OBIEE 11G - Unable to login to presentation services

Hi All,
I have done a simple installation of OBIEE 11G on my coloud server with OS windows server 2003, SP2 , 32 bit.
Installation is 88% completed with,
Executing : opmnctl start coreapplication_obiccs1 and Executing: opmnctl start coreapplication_obips1 failed. Came to know that this is related to clusters and ignored the error.
RCU is installed in different database server.
Now i am trying to login to presentation services with weblogic as userid and password that i had given during installation of obi.
I am getting error that userid or password is invalid...
One thing i came to know from the thread OBIEE 11g Cluster Controller Failed to start is,
i have a bad IP in /etc/hosts... below are the entries in the file... can anyone please tell me what necessary changes i should do?
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.

What Is Presentation Services Cache In Fact?

I have searched on this forum and on BI blogs but don't understand the concept of a presentation services cache clearly.
At first let tell what I need.
I have a dashboard page with prompts and report. From this report I navigate to another dashboard page with reports and several promts that have to be initialized with values from previous dashboard page. The navigation is based on PortalPageNav() function.
I created table in DB, PL/SQL function , through EVALUATE I passed parameters to PL/SQL function and wrote its into DB table.
Then I added this table in RPD and on Presentation Layer.
In Answers I get correct results.
Then I initialize the default values of prompts on a second dashboard page through 'SQL Results' and type something like this:
SELECT "Parameters"."Value" FROM "BO" WHERE "Parameters"."Name"='Param1'
1. I login and go to first dashboard page, change prompts, run report then navigate to second dashboard (it opens in new window). All prompts initialize correctly.
2. I open window with first dashboard page change prompts, run report then navigate to second dashboard again. And I see the previous values in prompts. But in a DB table I see new values.
There 2 ways for deciding this problem
1. By clearing cursor cache:
answers - administration- manage session - close all cursors
or
answers - administration- manage session - choose appropriate cursor and close it
2. By reloading second dashboard page
All ways are not convenient or user friendly.
BUT I NEED IN AUTOMATIC CLEARING OR NOT CACHING SOME PROMPTS!
I cant't write in a user's guide - for correct work you have to login as Administrator and clear cursor cache every time after changing prompts on first dashboard page or reloading second dashboard page :)
I became research this issue.
1. BI Server Cache is turned off through NQSConfig.ini
2. I began read a lot of info about Presentation Services Cache:
1) John Minkjan blog - [http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2008/11/obiee-presentation-services-cache.html]
I need no turn Presentation Services Cache or disable it.
2) [http://businessdecisionsystems.com/blog/?p=122] this article give us info about storing log records but there is no info about clearing cursors.
3) [http://hekatonkheires.blogspot.com/2010/02/obiee-10g-presentation-server-cache.html] good article about physical storing of presentation services cache but I didn't find any info on clearing some cursors
4) Nico in a blog write [http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/html_cache#clear_the_presentation_server_cache_without_stopping_and_restarting_the_services] that Presentation Services Cache is a HTML cache but he don't say how clean the entries without clicking on 'Close All Cursors' button.
5) In this topic presentation cache refresh in prompt the same problem and no answer :(
6) The user10203008 in a topic To pass new session variable value to stored proc before running a report. has the same issue but all advices about BI Server Cache. He found solution but it is disable whole Presentation Services Cache. I need clear ONLY SOME CURSORS.
So, I have a answer!
DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE IS STORING DATA ABOUT CURSORS ON A PAGE ANSWERS - ADMINISTRATION - MANAGE SESSION ?
May be somebody knows a developer of Siebel Analytics or may be he is on a forum and tell us how realized a clearing some cursors in a automatic mode?

I found a solution.
I decide to emulate a pressing button 'Refresh' at the end of a page. So I look at a html code of Dashboard page and found a corresponding javascript function. It is RefreshPage('saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=<PortalPath>&Page=<PagePath>')So I trying to create a text box with HTML Markup option and enter RefreshPage on onload() function. But then I got a cycle: open dashboard page -> onload() -> RefreshPage() -> onload() -> RefreshPage() -> ...
So I decide to find a code of this function. The function code is in %SAROOTDIR%\web\app\res\b_mozilla\dashboards\portalscript.js
// force cache refresh
function RefreshPage(sCmd)
   var viewStateDiv = document.getElementById("idViewStateDiv");
   if (viewStateDiv)
      sCmd += "&Action=RefreshAll";
      sCmd += "&ViewState=" + viewStateDiv.getAttribute("stateID");
      sCmd += "&StateAction=samePageState";
   window.location.replace(sCmd);
   return false;
}We may see that for refreshing page the Action='RefreshAll' is used. So we need pass this Action.
I wrote in a first post that I was using PortalPageNav() javascript function for navigation. So I created my custom CustomPortalPageNav() function which is based on original PortalPageNav() code with one new parameter 'sAction'. So I pass a value 'RefreshAll' through this parameter and it works!

Unable to open dashboards in presentation services

Hi All,
I have recently installed BI applications in my system.After installtion I am unable to open dashboards.Answers and delivers all the others are working fine.
When I click on the dashboard link it is giving the following error
"access denied for user to path /users/administrator/_portal.
Error Details
Error Codes: O9XNZMXB".
Thank You

Hi ,
I could't able to solve my problem after going through the above post.
I Want to login into Presentation services using paint/paint as userid & pwd, but it is throwing me following error.
" Unable to Log In
Error connecting to the Oracle BI Server: The specified ODBC DSN is referencing a subject area that no longer exists within the Oracle BI Repository.
Error Details
Error Codes: WH4KCFW6:OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC
Odbc driver returned an error (SQLDriverConnectW).
State: 08004. Code: 10018. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: 08004] [nQSError: 10018] Access for the requested connection is refused. [nQSError: 43037] Invalid catalog, Sales - Order Lines, specified. (08004) "
When i gave some blank pwd, then it clearly shows that "An invalid User Name or Password was entered."
So, i concluded that the pwd which am giving for the pain is correct and there is some thing to do with my catelog. So, i went ahead and changed in the instanceconfig file as pain catalog and even restarted oc4j, Bi server & Presentation server, even then its giving me the same error.
Also, my NQS file have paint red as default.
Can anyone give some inputs on this error and how to over come this?

How to set up presentation service group based on groups defined in LDAP

Hello guys
we have successfully implemented LDAP authentication, and we imported 5 groups from LDAP to BI server. However, these 5 groups and their members are not displaying on presentation server under presentation catalog group, it still only has two groups "everyone" and "admin"..
To manuelly create these 5 groups and members will be too much work, so what can I do to get these 5 groups and members on presentation service with the proper data level security defined in admin tool?
Please advice
Thanks

Have you created an Init Block to populate the GROUP variable? See the following post:

Create a new user in Presentation Services

Hello All,
I would like to know if it is possible to create a user in Presentation Services.
For now, when we create a user, we use the administration tool. We do the following manipulation:
Manage-> Security-> Action-> users
Is it possible to create a new user in Presentation Services?
Thank you in advance for your answers
Best regards

Hi,
Users are created in the Repository. When a user logs in via the presentation server, this user is validated against the one created in the repository.
Cheers.

Hi,
I had this problem after warehouse builder standalone installation. Looks like, it modified Environment variables.
Check Environment variables in control panel. I added these values to system path variable:
C:\OracleBI\server\Bin;C:\OracleBI\web\bin;C:\OracleBI\SQLAnywhere;C:\OracleBI\jdbc;
Though, not sure exactly which one helped, but now i have presentation services stared.

Couldn't logon to Presentation Services.
