Creating Universe in a web app

I built a WebForm app that successfully builds and exports a universe
The tool i used was the "BusinessObjects Designer 12.0 Object Library"
[this is a COM reference]
I made a DLL out of the same code ; assuming it would port over
I am running into problems running the DLL in my classic .asp app.
I did register my assembly in the GAC correctly; I know this because i have a simple "InitializeDLL" call that works- it returns what i expect.
The error message is :
"Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {3496DB16-E495-48C8-9C99-014AF38AD128} failed due to the following error: 80070005."
my questions are:
1) is there ANOTHER way of doing this [not using "BusinessObjects Designer 12.0 Object Library"]
2) what do i do? has anyone done this? [i am sure yes]
Please help

Hello David,
This sounds like a permissions error - it can't access the object specified by the CLSID.
So I would try:
1. Run process monitor, and see if you can identify the permissions error to the registry and/or dll.
2. Particularly search for the CLSID in the registry, to see what object is being blocked, and use that info to narrow down 1.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Error while creating farm for Office web apps

Hello.
I have error while creating office web apps fars.
when I enter this code to powershell : New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalURL "http://servername" -AllowHttp -EditingEnabled
It says this:
New-OfficeWebAppsFarm : The term 'New-OfficeWebAppsFarm' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script
file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct
and try again.
At line:1 char:1
+ New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalURL "http://office" -AllowHttp -EditingEnabled
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (New-OfficeWebAppsFarm:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
so what's the problem?

That is an error I would expect with the account running the cmdlet not having local administrator rights to the server.

Accessing an SQL Server Database created by MS Access Web App

1.I have tried to use MS Access Web App which has created an SQL Server Database. I would like to access the database using SQL Management Studio Express 2014. In access I can see the server name on windows.net and the database name but I do not know
how to connect to this using SSMS Express 2014. Can you please help?
2.I also want to view our emails on MS Exchange in real-time. In MS Access Jet I can do this by linking the folders as tables. Is there a way of doing this in SQL Server? If not can I have a separate MS Access Jet with linked tables which I can then link into
my SQL Server as an OLEDB Linked server?
3. If going for the Linked Table in Jet solution where can I store it so that my MS Access Web App will have access to it?

Hi gkounis,
I don't think it support link MS Access Jet with linked tables in SQL Server.
Can you share some info about your MS Access Web App?

Log4j doesn't create backup files in web-app, the same code in pure java ap

Hi all,
in my application I have a class DummyLogger, which is a superclass to all others. It provides them a log4j Logger.
In the constructor it sets up the important attributes:
log = Logger.getLogger(name+" (" + app + ") ");
log.setLevel(Level.toLevel(level));
PatternLayout defaultLayout = new PatternLayout("%p %c,line %L,%d{dd.MM.yyyy/HH:mm:ss},%m%n");
RollingFileAppender rollingFileAppender = new RollingFileAppender();
rollingFileAppender.setName(name);
rollingFileAppender.setFile(path+app+".log", true, false, 0);
rollingFileAppender.setMaxFileSize("10MB");
rollingFileAppender.setMaxBackupIndex(5);
rollingFileAppender.setLayout(defaultLayout);
log.removeAllAppenders();
log.addAppender(rollingFileAppender);
log.setAdditivity(false);Formerly I had the application as a pure java app and everything worked fine. Now I've made it a web application (I run it on WebsphereAS 5.0) and it has stopped creating the backup files. However the code remained the same.
Any ideas what has happend?
Thanks a lot,
Ondra

I also have the same problem. Did you find a fix?

How to create templates for a web app

Hi,
I am a newbie in Creator 2, and want to know if is possible in C2 to create a template so I can use it in all my web pages, just like "master pages" in asp.net 2.0.
Thanks,
Lorenzo

To learn about templates, see http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/learning/tutorials/2/project-templates.html
Another solution is page fragments: See http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/learning/tutorials/2/pagefragments.html

Performance of Web Templates Apps that are created in Web App Designer

I have created a Dashboard using Web App Designer in BI7 SPS 10.
The Web Template has 12 queries/DataProviders that are used for 12 charts. Buttons at the top control the view to show 4 Charts Each. When these buttons are selected, command sequences are executed that Hide and Show containers (each chart has its own container).
Also, there are 8 Dropdowns which are used to filter all 12 charts. These Dropdowns are using Posted Values because the requirement is to only show the values that actually exist in the InfoProvider.
When this template is run in Development where the data is minimal, it is taking 17 seconds to load the page. When running each query individually, it is taking each query between less than 1 second or at most 1.5 seconds. Also, the queries have been broadcasted to the OLAP Cache.
Other approaches that I have tried but have not changed the performance:
1. Created this template with Tabs and each template calls a template which contains 4 of the Charts (I believe this is called the Template in Template Approach.
2. Created 3 templates that each contain 4 of the Charts. The Command Sequence Change Template" is used to switch to another Template (e.g. from Monthly Trends to Top 10 and retain/pass the filters that are already selected in the Dropdowns. However all of the dataproviders are needed in each template in order to pass the filter values. Therefore, all 12 queries are executing when you load the main page.
I am looking for suggestions on what I could do differently to speed up the performance to get the Dashboard to respond within 10 seconds.
Thank You.

Dear Kristen,
well, one of the things that I do remember, a solution that we provided for a similar scenario, but, not exactly the same. Another difference is that it was in BW 3.5.
We had few reports that was responding slow. There were reports that was viewed by both sr. managers as well by his team. Sr. Mgr looked only at the high level data while the team looked at the item level data in the same report. So, we provided two links in the same report. Initially it will come up with a static data. To get a detailed data, the user has to click the next link to view item level data.
Now, how this works is through Reporting Agent. The first static data was provided as a cache(pre-calculated) hence, faster. It comes in just 2 secs. But, when the user needs a item level data, he clicks the lik provided, only in which case, it fetches data from the infoprovider(hybrid mode).
We will need to schedule periodically, accordingly, to refresh the cache to provide faster data.
Iam really not sure how far this will help you, but, can spark something( I hope!).
Thanks

Web app security not working

Hi,
I am using WebLogic 8.1 platform. I am trying to create a very basic secure web
app.
I created an App and created a web project. In it, I deleted the controller, etc
and just have index. jsp. All the index.jsp does is: <%= request.getRemoteUser()
%>
In web.xml I have
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Success</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>*</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>default</realm-name>
</login-config>
<security-role>
<role-name>*</role-name>
</security-role>
In weblogic.xml I have
<security-role-assignment>
<role-name>dealers</role-name>
<principal-name>dealer1</principal-name>
</security-role-assignment>
When I run the app, it just renders the JSP and does not challenge me to login.
Can you please help what is that I am doing wrong here?
Thanks,
John

Can't Edit Data in Access 2013 Web App

I have an Office 365 P1 account that I have been using to create apps in Access 2010. I tried Access 2013. But when I launch an app, it loads in my Office 365, but editing data is not enabled (the Add and Edit buttons are displayed, but not enabled).
I have tried creating a new custom web app with one simple table and a view, as well as creating one using a Microsoft pre-built template, and simply creating the app and launching it. In both cases, the app displays, but I cannot add or edit data.
Is there something with my Office 365 account that is limiting my ability to work with Access 2013 web apps?
Thank you!

Hi KrisMarshall7,
In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
What the file format is your Access 2007 file? MDB or ACCDB?
Where do you want to add the columns? Table, form or query?
As far as I know,
the limitation of columns in a table is 250. Thus, I suppose that the database had some hidden columns. Please try to check it. Steps:
Right-click any field title, then select Unhide Fields. A dialog box will appear. Click the check boxes of any fields you would like to be visible again, then click Close.
Hope it's helpful.
Regards,
George Zhao

Uploading values for an image field in a web app. Nothing displays in layout.

I've uploaded the values (using the import) for a field defined as an image in a web app. When I try to display the field, nothing shows up. The value correctly shows up when I look at Web App items after the upload / import. I've uploaded the same value in a text field, just to learn what was happening, and the text field displays the image just fine when added to the layout.
I would like to use the image field type, as it's easier to correctly create the link when the web app is updated in the future.
Here is what works in the layout: <a href="{tag_link to page}"> <img alt="" class="column66_award_thumb" id="thx" src="{tag_image thumb}" /></a>
Note that {tag_image thumb} is a text field with the link stored in it. The value for each Web App Item which populates this field is a link to the image. (i.e. /Awards/139.jpg)
Here is what I want to work: <a href="{tag_link to page}"> <img alt="" class="column66_award_thumb" id="thx" src="{tag_thumbnail image_value}" /></a> , where {tag_thumbnail image_value} refers to a field defined as an image in the web app. It has the exact same value as {tag_image thumb}. I just copied the field values in the Excel spreadsheet (saved as .csv) when I uploaded it.
It looks like the image field works fine only when I manually create it in the web app. If this is the case, using the upload capability disables any ability to use the image field type.
Is there a workaround for this? Am I missing something?
The page I'm working on is http://www.e-a-a.com/awards When you view the source, you can see that the small thumbnail images are displaying just fine. (I'm using the text field). Whenever I substitute the image field name {tag_thumbnail image}, {tag_thumbnail image_nolink}, or {tag_thumbnail image_value}, the src value is always null.
How do I fix?

Hi there,
To do it properly you need to resize the image. Prefably before you put it into BC. While you can for scale the image in CSS you do not want to do this. Why? Because the images are still very big and likely not optimised as they should be for the web.
This means the page with these images will take a very long time to load for people, and people wont be to happy about that viewing your site.
You need to use software such as photoshop if you have it or iphoto on a mac for example to edit, crop and size images before you upload them. If you do not have anything you can use free web based tools such as this one:
http://pixlr.com/editor/
You can also do this within BC itself in the file manager. If you click the image you can see options to resize it. The downside of that is that is done by pure math. It does not know what is in the photo and the results can make the image look squished etc.

Web app security + JAAS

I'm working on the authentication/authorisation aspects of a fairly
large web application using WLS 6.0 (ie allowing users to login and
access resources based on role etc).
Its a standard JSP/Servlet/EJB type architecture and so far it seems
the FORM-based authentication will serve our needs well. However, I've
been instructed (by higher powers) to investigate JAAS authentication.
It looks far more complex to implement so my question is, does it
offer any significant advantages that justify the extra work?
Thanks for your time.

Web app security & IIS?

I'm trying to get the security working for a web app. I'm using JAAS and the BASIC
authentication. I don't want to use FORM because the original Perl app (from which
my web app is derived) also used BASIC and I don't want the interface to change.
I've found that the security works great if I go directly to the weblogic server,
so it looks like the problem is with IIS (we're fowarding requests from IIS to
WebLogic). I think the problem lies in my web.xml. It has this in it:
<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>MLV Users Only</realm-name>
</login-config>
From what I can tell, weblogic just uses the realm-name as a label in the dialog
box that pops up, and for nothing else. My guess is that IIS is really trying
to use this as a security realm.
Am I on the right track? Anyone got any hints?
Gary

Office 2013 - SharePoint Web App: How can I link a subform on two Master/Child controls?

I have a form in which I have placed a subform in a SharePoint Web App.
I also have 2 controls on the form, from which I'd like to link to two columns on the subform. How can I have two Master/Child linking relationships to a subform.
In Access desktop, it is done in a window "Subform Field Linker", like this:
Master Fields: Child Fields:
<sorry I could not include a link until my account is verified>
Thanks,
Keith

Hi Bruce,
>>Are subforms in web apps different in this regard?<<
Yes, there are two kinds of database. In an on-premise environment, Access 2013 apps are hosted by SharePoint 2013 while the data is stored in SQL Server 2012. SharePoint 2013 provides authentication, authorization, and security for Access 2013 apps.
The back-end tables, views, macros, and queries are stored in a SQL Server 2012 database.
You can get more detail about Access 2013 web app from link below:

How can I use a web app to provide me with results from a matrix?

I have a need to set up a search type box based off a matrix. This is a matrix which shows a list of zip codes down the left column, and a list of products across the top, and the corresponding field from a zip code and a product is the freight rate.
e.g.
          Product 1     Product 2     Product 3     Product 4
1234     $10               $12               $14               $16
4567     $11               $11               $13               $17
5678     $55               $54               $27               $35
so the freight rate to 4567 for product 3 is $13.
Then what i want to have is a drop down list for a customer to select the product, then a field to enter their zip code, and the search result will be the cross referenced freight rate.
Is this possible? If so, can someone guide me as to how this would be done?

Throw this open to the community to chip in, but off the top of my head.... thinking of something along lines of:
Create 3 web apps,
Product (Fields Product Name & ProductID)
Zipcode (Fields Area Desc & Zipcode)
Freight Rates (Fields FreightRateID (made up of ProductID_ZipCode), Freight Rate)
Create a web app search form for Web App Freight Rates with:
Product select, with options drawn from web app 1 using ProductID for value.
Zipcode select, with options drawn from web app 2 using Zipcode for value.
Hidden FreightRateID field.
Once a visitor has selected their product and zipcode, using javascript concatenate the selected ProductID with selected Zipcode.
This will produce a FreightRateID (e.g. PROD1_4567), which can be loaded into the hidden FreightRateID field.
When submitted, it will perform a web app search for a Freight Rate that matches the chosen product and zipcode, ie. FreightRateID.
To make entry of the freight rates easier, maybe add 2 datasource fields to the Freight Rate web app for Product and Zipcode.
Then create a front end web app add/edit (via a secure zone) to allow entry to be done by:
Select product, select zipcode then enter freight rate. (FreightRateID can be created and populated in same way as search above)

Office Web Apps Farm Across Multiple Data Centers?

I have not been able to find any definitive information about this but the article below seems to suggest what I have in mind is not recommended. I am not sure about supported.
"Stick to one data center. Servers in an Office Web Apps Server farm must be in the same data center. Don’t distribute them geographically. Generally you need only one farm, unless you have security needs
that require an isolated network that has its own Office Web Apps Server farm."
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219435.aspx#topology
What I have is two very well connected data centers located in the same metro area. We will be deploying a Lync EE pool at each site and use pool pairing for DR. What I am wondering is should I:
Create a single Office Web Apps farm with the server from each data center as members?
Create a farm in each site with a single member, but both farms sharing the same URL?
Create a farm in each site with a single member, but both farms have different names. This seems unnecessarily ugly, but throwing it out there.
Since Lync is using Office Web Apps in read only mode the question is different than if SharePoint were involved. However, I can't rule out this farm also being used for SharePoint down the road.
The LB/RP device of choice is Citrix NetScaler. Another thought I had is can that be configured so incoming requests for Office Web Apps at each data center can prioritize traffic to the server or farm within that data center? If that is unavailable
then switch to the server at the other data center?
Thanks.

Hi,
An Office Web Apps farm can be deployed to provide functionality for multiple sites.
Also you can deploy one Web Apps farm on each site.
So I think you can choose to deploy with the option one and three as you said.
Here is a case about deploying Lync deploy Office Web Apps server may help you:
