  • Installation of Oracle Discoverer for PeopleSoft and Oracle apps(11.5.10)

    Hello Gurus,
    I hope I am in the right forum. I have been assigned to install Oracle Discoverer for Oracle ERP (11.5.10). We currently have a Oracle Discoverer environment for Peoplesoft. My questions are follows.
    1. Can I use the existing Oracle Discoverer which is used to get PeopleSoft data for Oracle Applications (11.5.10) ?? This way I avoid installing another copy of Discoverer. In Future, if we could use the existing technology for other Databases.
    2. If I go in for a new install of Oracle Discoverer, what is that I need to install ? I am guessing, there should be
    1. Desktop application on the client
    2. Do I need to install anything on the server ?
    3. I will have a Oracle Discoverer database
    I guess 1. (Desktop application) would be installed on all desktops ? Is there a web based thingy ?? For 2 and 3 I would require the DBA's to help me out.
    Would anyone have a high level diagram of the things that go in for installation ? I would really appreciate if you could send it to kiranramachandra at yahoo dot com.
    Thanks folks

    Hi,
    1. No, you don't need to reinstall Discoverer, you can just connect to the new database provided you have updated the TNSNames.ora file. However, before you can connect with Discoverer Desktop you will need to use Discoverer Admin to create a new Apps mode EUL in the Applications Database.
    2. You will need a client installation of Discoverer (Admin and Desktop). If you want to use the web based Discoverer Plus and Viewer tools you will need to a Oracle Application Server installation. If you are installing Discoverer 10g then you should install the Oracle Business Intelligence Standard Edition. But depending on your version and configuration you may need to install other tools.

  • Discoverer Desktop 11 and Oracle db 9i

    Will Discoverer Desktop 11 run off Oracle db 9i?
    I have copied tnsnames.ora file from 9i directory to 11, cannot connect (get ORA-12154)
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    I am not aware of any issues that would cause a TNS connection error. Check that the TNS details are correct for the new database using TNSping or SQLplus.

  • Discoverer 10g and Oracle Financials

    I am a newbie. Does Discoverer run against Oracle Financials - Project Accounting in particular?
    Thanks,
    Cherie Machler

    Hi,
    Yes, Discoverer can run against Oracle Financials. You need to create a Discoverer EUL (End User Layer) that maps to the underlying Oracle financials tables and views and gives a business interpretation of the data in Oracle Financials. You can either use the EUL that is shipped with Oracle Financials Intelligence, create your own or do a bit of both.

  • Discoverer 11g and Oracle apps

    I have setup discoverer and everything is working.  When calling from oracle apps, I am getting this error:
    Could not locate or parse the .dbc file /ebs02/prod/discoverer/Oracle/Middleware/asinst_2/config/Discoverer/Discoverer_asinst_2//corpdevpl200-fin_prod.dbc corresponding to the given Oracle Applications instance.
    The problem is the double slash before the dbc file.  Where would the trailing slash come from? Any advice is appreciated.

    The issue was that the opmn.xml file had a slash at the end of the fnd_secure variable, I removed it and the double slash problem was resolved!  I did not edit the script, this was from the install. Possibly not many people have integrated 11.1.1.7 discoverer with EBS and make the call to discoverer from menu in EBS, hence this has not been reported.

  • Conflicts: Discoverer and Oracle Applications

    Hi,
    I have Discoverer (Version 4.1.48.08.00) running on SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 integrated with Oracle Applications 11i.
    Sometimes and unexpectedly the "APPS" user is locked and Oracle Applications needs to be restarted in order to work properly. I don't know the cause, but I'm sure it's caused by Discoverer because it happens exactly at periods of the month when Discoverer users are using it most, at very specific times.
    Sorry to not have more details, but maybe someone have already had the same problem.
    Thanks a lot.
    Fiunes

    Hi Rachael
    It is certified for use with E-Business Suite and as far as I know it is very stable, so long as you have applied the latest patch.
    Like all previous versions of Discoverer you don't want to stay on the out of the box version for longer than you have to.
    Best wishes

  • Installing Discoverer with Database Version Oracle 10g Express Edition

    Hello,
    Is it possilbe to install Discoverer with database version Oracle 10g Express Edition? I have Oracle Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.1.0 on my Windows XP machine as well. If so, can someone please provide me a link to the Discoverer download.
    Regards,
    Kelly

    Note that the Personal Edition of the database is 'the most powerful' version, in that it contains all features and options of the Enterprise Edition (expect RAC and Enterprise Manager packs)
    As such, the Personal Edition, at a mere USD$400-500 is one of the most cost effective for-fee products that Oracle has in it's inventory. It is targeted at the developer. And it comes with the complete set of Sample Data, whereas XE has a very limited subset (since it does not support all functionality).
    Express Edition is indeed free, but it is not supported, and can not be patched. OTOH it does have a lighter footprint.
    Again, I am not sure whether Disco 11g is compatible with Express Edition. (It's on my schedule for December ...)

  • Discoverer 3.1 with Oracle 10g

    Hi All,
    I want to use Discoverer 3.1 against Oracle 10.1.0.4 Database and Oracle 10.1.2.0.2 Application Server. This is a temporary solution only, since a client urgently needs to run his Discoverer reports. The operating system of the client machines is Windows 2000 and on the other hand, the Discoverer version they want to put in place is 3.1.18. This version is not designed for WIN2K and above.
    Discoverer 3.1.18 still runs on WIN2K but the company expects to carry out upgrade to Windows XP Professional. Obviously Discoverer 3.1 is not a solution but they want to use it for a short time. My main question in this respect is if Discoverer 3.1.18 could be run against Oracle 10g.

    Hi
    To be honest I have never tried it. My gut instinct is that it won't work but I could be wrong so you would have to try it and see. The unfortunate aspect about all of this is that Discoverer 3 has been long desupported so there is no way you would get any help from Oracle should things go wrong.
    I also have to question your Discoverer release number. If you are on 3.1.18 you are definitely on dodgy ground because this is not Y2K compliant. The release you should be on is 3.1.36. The following posting from my blog lists all of the Discoverer releases along with their correct patch numbers:
    http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com/2006/04/april-2006-oracle-discoverer-patch.html
    You may find it useful. If you need to get hold of the 3.1.36 patch you could try raising a SR but I wouldn't guarantee that you will succeed. What's wrong with using the latest 10.1.2.0.2? It has Desktop and Administrator just the same and will work on the 10g database no problem.
    I hope this helps
    Regards
    Michael

  • Discoverer 11g installation and webcache

    Discoverer 11g installation and webcache
    I just finshed doing a standalone install of discoverer 11.1.1.6. I just dint realise that we require webcache and had unchecked that option.
    Is there a way for me to fix this?
    Thank you

    When I try to rerun the installer. It (11.1.1.2) tries to create a new oracle home. Can I uninstall Discoverer 11.1.1.2 without uninstalling weblogic and reinstall it again?
    Thank you

  • Discoverer Web Viewer and Charts

    I did a search in the forum and saw no previous discussions on this subject. So, here's the question. I've developed a worksheet with a graph in Discoverer Plus 4.1. Now the question is how does one display this graph on the Discoverer 4i viewer (Web viewer)? I've looked under Presentation and it has "Chart Area" clicked ON, but the chart doesn't show. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Kerry Brannen

    Thanks Andy, you've answered the question (I think). I created the chart with the DeskTop version and figured it was only logical that since everything else created in Desktop version is viewable on the web, then the chart should be as well or why else would Oracle have put it there?
    So the question is, how do I access the "Discoverer Plus Applet" and create a chart? Is there documentation?
    Thanks,
    Kerry
    P.S. We had already set the <argument name="show_graphs">true</argument> .

  • Application Server and Oracle Apps - basic doubts

    Hello
    I am pretty new to Oracle 9iAS and Oracle Apps 11i
    Please clarify my basic doubts
    Read that Oracle9i AS Components are :
    - J2EE and Internet Applications (sub-components are Oracle HTTP Server, OC4J, Web services etc)
    - Portals
    - Wireless
    - Web cache
    - Business Intelligence
    - E-Business Integration
    Read that middle tier of Oracle Apps has following servers
    - Web server
    - Forms server
    - Concurrent Processing server
    - Reports server
    - Discoverer server (optional)
    - Admin server
    My doubts are -
    1. When Oracle Apps 11i is installed, Oracle 9iAS becomes the middle tier of it
    Yes / No / Partailly ?
    2. If partially, then only the 'J2EE and Internet Applications' component is installed
    Yes / No / Partially ?
    3. If partially, then Web server (Oracle HTTP Server) and Forms server come from Oracle 9iAS and Report Server, Concurrent Processing server, Admin server etc seperate components only specific to Oracle Apps 11i ?
    Yes / No
    Please let me know the answers with the explanation
    Thanks a ton

    Oracle Applications 11i uses Oracle 9iASv1 (10222, specifically) as the underlying midtier technology stack. The latest release of 11i (11.5.10), to be released this summer, can leverage specific features of Oracle AS 10g (904), namely SSO authentication and OID user management, Portal, and Discoverer. This capability will be backported to 11i releases 11.5.8 and 11.5.9, and is currently available now to limited customers through the Early Adopter program. When installed in this configuration, there is a 9iASv1 tech stack installed as part of the 11i installation, and a separate AS 10g installed for SSO, OID, Portal, Discoverer, and any other AS products the customer may be using. Aside from SSO, OID, Portal, and Disco, 11i does not yet run on other components of 9iAS or 10g (e.g., OC4J). Applications plans to move to 10g as the underlying tech stack in a future release.

  • Does Discoverer 4 work with Oracle 8.1.6?

    I have a disk for Installing Oracle discoverer 4.1.37 which I need to work with Orcale 8.1.6. When installing I am not permitted to use my Ora81 home as this is already been used by Oracle 8.1.6 production. Does this mean that I need Oracle 9i to use discoverer 4? Is there a version of discoverer available that works over 8.1.6.

    As far as I know, Dirk-Jan is correct. Discoverer uses the 'old' Oracle home structure, where 8i uses the new 'multiple home' structure. As far as I know, you will probably need to create at least an empty old-style home first, then install the database if you are going to install any products that require the old home, because by design it must be installed first. I think it is probably possible to mess around with the registry entries and switch which one it thinks was installed first, but I normally don't like playing around inside the registry that much. If you have another server, you could install the Discoverer server there, or use the workstation version. It works fine with 8.1.6 and 8.1.7.
    For that reason, we almost always install a 'stub' old home, even if it just contains an old installer entry, before we install things with new homes, just in case we need to install something that needs it.
    If Oracle has a more intelligent way of working that out, I wish somebody would post something, because it really is annoying sometimes.
