Created .rpd file but how do I connect in OBIEE Answers?

I have created a .rpd file using an Essbase connection but am now stuck on how I connect an Answer query to it in the OBIEE dashboard tool itself. When I create a new analysis, I do not see my newly created .rpd in the list of available connections. Should the RPD be saved in a specific folder? Do I use some fucntion within OBIEE to connect to the newly created .rpd? Am I missing out a section where I connect to the .rpd file, like in FR when you connect to a new Datasource?
Thanks

Hi,
You need to make the repository online for queries. Follow this:
- Login to Weblogic Enterprise Manager http://SERVER:7001/em
- On left pane, go to folder Business Intelligence --> coreapplication
- Go to "Deployment" tab and then "Repository" tab.
- click on "Lock and Edit configuration"
- Select repository to load, enter repo password and then click Apply.
- Then click Active Changes and then Restart all obiee services.
Once this is done, you'll be able to see and work on your presentation schema in Asnwers.

Then you won't be able to use that backup. You might as well delete it and start over.

In case of Control File Failure, Create Control File cmd how get scn?

The following lines i picked from the
http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:5033895918209
======================================================
1. We can use the 'alter database rename ' at mount stage to rename any datafile. Or is it not possible to rename the system datafile like this? Why?
2. What happens to the SCN information in the controlfile when a controlfile is recreated? How will the database sync the SCN with that of the datafiles?
If I issue a 'backup controlfile to <file>' at 8 am and then restore that controlfile binary backup at 10 am and try to open the database, it will give me a control file old error. I understand that it is because the SCN is not in sync. But if I issue a 'backup controlfile to trace' at 8 am and use that script to recreate a new controlfile at 10 am, why doesn't I get the error? Where does it get the SCN information then?
So what is the use of taking a binary copy of the controlfile. Looks like having a 'backup controlfile to trace' script is better than a binary backup. Do you agree? Why/whynot?
Followup August 16, 2002 - 2pm US/Eastern:
1) you could but I just always did it with the create controlfile statement.
When moving system -- I do it that way
When moving ANY OTHER tablespace -- i just offline it, move the files, rename the files online it.
2) it just happens.
The control file you create will read the files to figure out what is up.
I agree, I've never used a binary controlfile backup myself.
=========================================================
My Question- In the Point2 above "Where does it get the SCN information and how control file do SCN Sync with data files?
"

1. The CREATE CONTROLFILE reads SCNs from the DataFiles. If the
database was last shutdown, all the datafiles are "non-fuzzy" and have the same
SCN (as of the shutdown checkpoint), If the database or some of the files are from
are hot backup, you cannot open the database because the SCN of some files is
older (lower) than others -- that is why a RECOVER (DATABASE or DATAFILE) is
required.
See http://web.singnet.com.sg/~hkchital/Incomplete_Recovery_with_BackupControlfile.doc
2. I'm not sure I agree with Tom Kyte's response
"I agree, I've never used a binary controlfile backup myself. "
to the question
"So what is the use of taking a binary copy of the controlfile. Looks like having a 'backup controlfile to trace' script is better than a binary backup. Do you agree? Why/whynot?"
If you have lost your database (storage/filesystem failure) and all your datafiles are lost,
you cannot simply do a CREATE CONTROLFILE from a Trace -- because the
CREATE CONTROLFILE has to read and verify all the datafiles specified in the
CREATE statement. If you have an RMAN Repository, you can use that to restore
your database files but otherwise, the RMAN information about backups and backupsets
are in the binary controlfile.
That is why it is important to take binary controlfile backups either manually or
using RMAN or using CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON.

OBIEE : Newly created rpd file not showing in the online mode in Admin tool

Hi,
I have recently installed OBIEE 10.1.3.4.2 and Oracle XE databse in a Windows XP (Professional version 2002 Service Pack 3) virtual machine on my Windows 7 machine.
1) I have create an rpd file in Admin tool (all three layers). But I can only load this rpd file in offline mode, not in online mode.
a)Saved the file sanjay1.rpd in c:\OracleBI\server\Repository directory
b)Updated the c:\OracleBI\server\config\NQSConfig.ini (commented out the existing Star entry and replaced it with Star = sanjay1.rpd, DEFAULT;),
c)Modified the C:\OracleBIData\web\config\instanceconfig.xml and made change to the CatalogPath entry (<CatalogPath>C:/OracleBIData/web/catalog/sanjay1</CatalogPath>)
d)Stopped and restarted OC4J, “Oracle BI Presentation Server” and “Oracle BI Server” services.
But I am still not able to load sanjay1.rpd in the Admin tool in the online mode. It is showing up only in the offline mode. What do I need to do load the file in the online mode.
2)The existing Start entry in NQSConfig.ini was Star = samplesales.rpd, DEFAULT before I updated it. But samplesales.rpd is not showing up in online mode either. When I am selecting File/Open/Online a popup is coming up with title "Open Online AnalyticsWeb" and prompting to enter Administrator password. I would like to know why samplesales.rpd was not showing up in online mode and where is AnalyticsWeb coming from.
Thanks
Sanjay

Dear Muram,
Is did not work.
1)Wihile the servers were running I opened the rpd in offline mode. It displayed the message the file can only be opened in the Read-Only mode. I accepted the message, opened the file and clsoed it and exited from Admin tool. I stopped the 2 services “Oracle BI Presentation Server” and “Oracle BI Server” in that order, and restrated them in the reverse order. In the admin tool it is still showing in the offline mode only
2)I have as such no interest in AnalyticsWeb that is showing in the online mode. I did not create it, it must have been installed along with OBIEE. But I am curious where it is coming from. Because A)There is no rpd file for AnalyticsWeb in the Repository Directory B)Before I edited the NQSConfig.ini the default setting was samplesales.rpd. So AnalyticsWeb was never included in the NQSConfig.ini file C) samplesales.rpd was included in the NQSConfig.ini once, but it never showed up online.
Thanks
Sanjay

Saving a file in Vi creates same file but with ~ added [SOLVED]

Hi,
I'm not sure if I pressed a key combination, but when I save a file in Vi I get another file that has the same name as the original file but with the ~ character added to the end of the filename. For example, if I edit foo.txt and save it, then the original will be saved, but I'll also get a new file named foo.txt~. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

I think that the default backup settings (in /etc/virc if you use the basic vi package) changed with the recent upgrade to Vim 7.2.25.
For information on file backup setting combinations, see :help backup-table in Vim.
Edit:
fwojciec wrote:http://thehumblecoder.wordpress.com/200 … kup-files/
That article advocates disabling the use of swap files (:set noswapfile); however, I wouldn't recommend it. Whereas backup files are designated with a trailing tilde (~), swap files have names ending with .swp. The latter should be removed automatically when Vim exits (unless it is exited abnormally, such as when the user closes a terminal emulator without first quitting an instance of Vim that is running inside it).

My FP-2000 creates a file but cannot write any more in this file. Which can be the cause for it?

I create files on my FP-2000 to save data .
This application functioned very well before ; but now without apparent reason, the file is created without error but the writing is impossible. The cluster of error at the exit of VI "Write File" indicates code 6: "Warning 6 occurred at an unidentified location. Possible reasons: LabVIEW: Generic file I/O error."
Which could be the reason for it?
Could my FP-2000 be damaged (flash memory)?

I have almost the same problem. I'am logging data with my cFP 2020. Writing to the flash of 2020 or to the external compact flash port.
For some reason the cFP returns a Generic file I/O error after quite a while. And it's not that I'm running out of free space.
Anyone got some ideas?

Commenting a Template Project File, but how?

This would be really handy (from the Logic Pro 8 User Manual, p. 154):
Tip: You can add a descriptive text to your templates by adding a comment to the
project file in the Finder. The Templates dialog displays the icon assigned to a template file, making it easy for you to change a template’s icon. For more information on how to add a comment to a file, or change the icon of a file, see the Finder Help.
Well, I added some Spotlight Comment in the File Info Window of some of my template files, but they do not show up in Logic. A new icon does, however.
Sometimes I just overlook something really easy on my Mac (after all these years...). But what is it this time?
Anyone any idea? Feature only working on Leopard?
Thanks,
Marius

I too tried this some time ago. I made several attempts before giving up. Perhaps I gave up too soon but the method seemed very straight forward in the manual. So I too would be interested in hearing from anyone who managed to do this sucessfully.

In Beehive you can create wiki pages but how do you ....

Add an image and then put a link under it, in html it's easy you wrap the image in a <a href.... > </a> link but how do you do the same in a wiki page. There was nothing in the documentation for Oracle Beehive that describes the syntax for wiki pages and what you can and can't do.
Any ideas?

I have setup JSP & MySQL but how can i Connect it to eche other ?

I feel sory by asking this qustion but i tried very enough

also i have already installd MySQL and i can create databases and tables by http://localhost/phpMyAdmin
so what i have to do else to connect JSP to MySQL ? , ( if nothing )
how can i test that MySQL Connected with JSP, so that i can display data from database ?
Best Regards
JMalik

create a java bean, which is just similar to a java class and put the database connection there so you wouldn't have to include that code in all you jsps everytime you connect to the database
this is for DbConnection.java
package connection;
import java.sql.*;
import java.io.*;
public class DBConnection
     private Connection con;
     public DBConnection()
          try
              Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
              con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/yourfolder?user=yourusername&password=yourpassword");
        catch (Exception e)
             e.printStackTrace();
     public Connection getConnection()
          return con;
     public void close()
          try
               con.close();
          catch(Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
}in another bean/class which connects to your database,
say for example this is SelectUsers.java
public String[] selectActiveUsers(int id) throws Exception, SQLException
     try
               con = new DBConnection().getConnection();
               Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
               String ins = "<your select statement>";
                        stmt.executeUpdate(ins);
                        con.close();
               stmt.close();
         catch (SQLException se)
                System.out.println("SQL Exception: " + se.getMessage() + "not connected");
                se.printStackTrace(System.out);
     }and in your jsp, instantiate the class
users.jsp
SelectUsers su = new SelectUsers();
String[] users = su.selectActiveUsers(1);got it?
