Custom Data Source in CMC does not work

Hi there,
Server : Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1
Designer : CR 2008
I have several reports that are originally set located to ODBC DSN1. I deployed this report to the server and in CMC, updated the database configuration in CMC as below.
Enabled "Use Custom Data Source Information"
Specified a new ODBC DSN2, user id, password, fully qualified table prefix for the new database etc.
I can see that the report is running against the new database, and the data is selected, but the output is always blank.
But if I open the report in CR 2008, set locate the report to the new database DSN2, deploy again and use "original data source information", it works just fine. I have noticed this issue mainly with reports having sub-reports.
Is there a solution to this problem. I don't want to set locate each report and deploy to the CMC if I have an option.
Thanks for the help.
Ajith

I believe that the connection details are stored as part of the CR itself. Therefore if you update a connection in the CMC that might not change the parameters and credentials, especially when using sub-reports.
Hope this helps...

CMC does not work after deploying to Websphere

Description of Problem or Question:
We have an installation of BO XI R2 SP2 on Tomcat (default installation).
Now we installed Websphere Application Server 6.0 on the same server and deployed BO war files on it.
The existing installation of Infoview & CMC on Tomcat works as it did before.
But, CMC that runs on Websphere does not work.
Product\Version\Service Pack\Fixpack (if applicable):
Business Objects XI R2 - Service Pack 2
Tomcat 5.0.27 (installed by default)
Websphere Application Server 6.0.0.2
Relevant Environment Information (OS & version, java or .net & version, DB & version):
Windows 2003 Server R2, Enterprise Edition, SP2
Sporadic or Consistent (if applicable):
Consistent
Steps to Reproduce (if applicable):
Followed all the steps mentioned in "Deploying on WebSphere" section of "xir2_bip_install_en.pdf"
Deployed the following war files from the following location in the order mentioned with context roots as listed.
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\java\applications\sp2updates
webcompadapterSP2.war /businessobjects
jsfadminSp2.war /jsfadmin
jsfplatform.war /jsfplatform
adminSP2.war /businessobjects/enterprise115/adminlaunch
desktopSP2.war /businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch
stylesSP2.war /styles
http://localhost:9080/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch
Infoview works as expected.
http://localhost:9080/businessobjects/enterprise115/admin
CMC doesnot work. IE Says "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error".
What has already been tried (where have you searched for a solution to your question/problem):
On searching the web-forums, I found this:
http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=112151
So, I tried to install WCA for Websphere. The scenario mentioned in that article deals with new installation of BO.
But, since ours is an existing installation, I cannot install WCA for websphere.
I do not want to re-install BO.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Chris

Date Sorting for Webcasts does not work....

Has anyone noticed that the "Sort Items by"-->"Date (Most recent)" does not work when you are in the "webcasts" secion of ni.com:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/fn/p/sn/n15:WebcastsAndVideos
It looks like when you select to sort by date it is actually sorting by title, because they both result in the webcasts being sorted by title.
NI, can you fix this? I typically like to go to the webcasts section and sort by date to see if there's anything new I haven't seen yet. It worked before the website was revamped.
Thanks.

Hi Chris,
I had a look at it and it seems to be working fine. I tried all the sorting options out and they all work.

Data Binding: Simple code does not work.

hi... the following simple code is used to display the ename field for a record selected in scott.emp on the console. the code is placed in an event handler. it is as follows:
DCBindingContainer bindings = ctx.getBindingContainer();
DCControlBinding binding = bindings.findCtrlBinding("ename");
String Name = (binding != null) ? binding.toString() : "";
System.out.println(Name);
is the code above correct????
if so, why it does not work???
thanks for every help in advance & best regards.

Hi,
please check the UIModel.xml file for the page if the binding name is "name". The code you have is the same code we published in our QBE workshop and it works there. The only difference is the name of the control binding. So please check if the binding name exists. (e.g. it could be ename1 instead of ename)

Cannot create new Data Source - Oracle ODBC does not show in System DSN

On Windows 7 x64, Installed Oracle 10g to use ODBC to connect to Oracle database but am not able to create new data source as Oracle ODBC does not show in System DSN.... only shows SQL server etc etc...

Custom URL Handler in Java does not work for JavaFX

Hi,
for the purpose of playing Media Files that are decrypted on the fly and then hold in memory with the JavaFX MediaPlayer we are trying to register a custom URL Handler. The thought behind that would be that with the handler JavaFX should be able to open a stream and play back the file (a bit like jar://). In a testcase isolated from JavaFX my handler including registration at JVM is working fine, but once i plug it into JavaFX it stops to do so. I'm calling the Media(String) constructor. It fails with "Unsupported scheme". It seems like that JavaFX is not relying on the JVM URLStreamFactory but rather implementing a separate mechanism to figure out which handler it should use thus failing in my use case.
Is this expected behavior and if so can anybody suggest a work around?
EDIT: Actually read the Javadoc for Media. It explicitly says that it only supports File, HTTP and Jar. So it is expected behavior however I am still open for suggestions on this.
cheers,
andreas

Selection in the Generic Data Source does not work

Hi gurus,
I have some problem with the selection in the Generic Data Source.
I have created a view as a base of a Generic Data Source.
This view is based on several table; i.e.: VBUK-VBELN (Sales Order number), VBAP-ERDAT (creation date of Sales Order), VBAP-POSNR (Sales order item), VBAK-BSTNK (Customer Purchase order number).
In the view, some join conditions have been defined: VBUK-VBELN = VBAK-VBELN, VBUK-VBLN = VBAP-VBELN.
I want to extract the Sales Order number, Sales order item and Customer Purchase order number for the Sales order created on the previous year.
On the Generic Data Source, I select VBELN (Sales order number) and ERDAT (creation date of sales order) as selection.
However, when I run the extractor checker (RSA3) on this Generic Data Source, the selection does not work at all, i.e.:
eventhough I restricted the Sales order number and/or the creation date of sales order, the generic data source ignores the selection criteria and extract ALL data.
Does anyone ever have similar problem? Did I miss some step in the Generic DAta Source creation? How to fix this problem?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards,
Fen

Hi Fen,
Just check what is the output you get for the same selection for the view you created.
Bye

After upgrade date selection does not work in xml forms

Hi Experts,
since we upgrade the portal from 7.0.19 to 7.0.24 we have a problem with the timestamp in the xml forms in combination with IE7. When we click on the date selction button, the date screen appears and the form disappears. The only option we can choose is cancel and then the date selection screen disappears and the form is not comming back. Selecting a date en choose ok does not work. I tried with IE6 then it works fine. Before the upgrade it works fine with IE7.
How to solve this?
thanks in advance.

MDT - Custom Reference Image does not work with Task Sequence, normal Windows 7 Enterprise Iso media works fine.

Hi,
Our MDT server is acting strange!
I have previously had this system running without problem - i could both capture and deploy computers as is and no changes have been made to mdt.
But my latest capture does not work. When i capture my reference maching in my VM environment it completes without errors and i can import the latest wim file.
When i deploy the tast sequence, it install the custom Wim image, but it ends up with "login" screen as the administrator i have entered for the capture/deploy sequence, but it goes to stop at this point and applications is not installed.
If i change the ISO in the task sequence under Install OS step, to a clean Win7 install media then the capture completes and install applications.
I have also tried to:
Capture reference without password
Capture reference without Windows updates

Customer Exit variable and Filter routine in DTP does not works?

Hello Experts,
Does anyone know what might be the possible reason - A customer exit variable working fine on the OLAP side does not work in a DTP??
I have also tried to use the Filter routine, which does not give me the right results..I am trying to fetch a Fiscalyear period maintained in an infoObject as follows in my Filter routine..
ata: sel_period like /BIC/PZPARAM-/BIC/ZPARAMVAL.
DATA: zperiod type /BI0/OIFISCPER.
          SELECT SINGLE /BIC/ZPARAMVAL INTO sel_period
          FROM /BIC/PZPARAM
          WHERE /BIC/ZPARAM = 'ZPCA'
          AND objvers = 'A'.
          zperiod = sel_period.
data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
          read table l_t_range with key
               fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
          l_idx = sy-tabix.
          l_t_range-iobjnm = '0FISCPER'.
          l_t_range-fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
          l_t_range-sign = 'I'.
          l_t_range-option = 'EQ'.
          l_t_range-low = zperiod.
          if l_idx <> 0.
            modify l_t_range index l_idx.
          else.
            append l_t_range.
          endif.
          p_subrc = 0.
Please let me know if I am making any mistakes above..
Kind Regards,
Kadriks

Hi
1. CLEAR l_t_range-high. is missing in your code befor assigning values to l_t_range.
2. use simple append l_t_range after the l_t_range asisgnments. remove below code :
if l_idx 0.
modify l_t_range index l_idx.
else.
append l_t_range.
endif.
p_subrc = 0.
3. I dont think you need to assign infoobject.
4. Clear sel_period and zperiod is also missing
Hence your code should be :
data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
read table l_t_range with key
fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
CLEAR l_t_range-high.
l_idx = sy-tabix.
l_t_range-fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
l_t_range-sign = 'I'.
l_t_range-option = 'EQ'.
l_t_range-low = zperiod.
append l_t_range .

Exit button - Germany Personal data service does not work

Hi all,
We just upgraded our portal to EP7 Sp22 with 1.3 ESS Business Package and 603 XSS components in the back-end.
In testing Germany and all countries that use the Germany personal data service, the Exit button on all screens (Overview, Edit, Review and Save, Confirmation) does not work. The Exit button, when selected, keeps the user on the same screen.
I am not sure where the button is configured, but it should always take us back to the page from where the service was launched. So if I accessed through the Overview page or Personal Information page, and then click on the exit button, I should be taken back to one of those pages.
Where can we configure the exit button for the German Personal data service, so that it works and takes the user back to the page where they started.....?
Cheers!, Neeta

Hi,
The Germany personal data service is the only one where the exit button is not working. All other countries are testing fine.
Is it a customization issue on the back-end? The resource in spro for germany is configured with the pcd link of the german personal data i-view.
The other countries are also customized in the back-end with the pcd link of the appropriate i-view.
Regards, Neeta

I have seen the Apple webpage suggesting the "five R's" (including restore). Before doing anything, I want to be sure that restoring or any other action is not going to delete or risk my data.
I would be very grateful if anyone can suggest a fix for this problem, in a way that will not risk my data.
Thanks in advance!

Did you try a hard reset with the iPod still connected to your PC? Have you tried multiple USB ports, preferably high powered USB 2.0 ports?
To do a hard reset, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Have you also worked through each and every single troubleshooting suggestion in this Apple support document?
