Documentation Discoverer 3.1

Hi !
Does anyone know where I can find Documentation on the internet about Oracle Discoverer User Edition 3.1 (or actually 3.1.40) and Oracle Discoverer Administration Edition 3.1 ?
I am looking for information about using the programs and any nice tips etc. Also (simple) information about using SQL (and SQL-calculations) is welcome !
Nice URL's are welcome !
With regards.

Hi Kevin,
thanks voor the URL. Looks good !
Anything more is welcome. I'm would also like easy information about SQL-calculations and what you can do with this...(I'm not very far with this).
I wish I could upgrade but that's not up to me to decide. I may only use the programs. Since a short time I use the Administrator version and I can import/upgrade a new BA which is created by other people. We are still on Oracle8i and I believe we couldn't even upgrade ?
With regards.

  • Documentation Links are bad

    The documentation links for Discoverer are bad (I would assume this applies to other documentation.
    None of the HTML or PDF links on this page return a valid result:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/discoverer.html
    They all return: "The page cannot be displayed"
    Please remedy ASAP.

    Just to clarify here; software downloads (from download.oracle.com) will not work for employees during business hours but documentation will - if you remove *.oracle.com from your browsers proxy exceptions.

  • Urgent help with discoverer 4i installation

    Hi All, I just started working on a discoverer upgrade process. I need help in installing discoverer 4i and them refering to a 10g database. Can any one guide to a reference doc which I may refer to finish the complete install. In other words I need to configure discoverer 4i so that we can do development. I have downloaded the admin, desktop and the 3201601 patch for 4i as well.
    Not sure if they dont know it or they are not interested in it.
    I have been working as a disco admin and developer for quiet some time now but dont know how to install and do the configuration.
    Thanks.

    Hi Paul,
    I hate to tell you, but you should be implementing Discoverer 10g (10.1.2.x) and not 4i. Discoverer 4i is de-supported and I do not think it was ever certified with 10g database.
    Check the following MetaLink note for details.
    237607.1     ALERT: Required and Recommended Patch Levels For All Discoverer Versions
    One exception, you mentioned an upgrade. That tells me you are likely on version 3. In which case, you would need to install the 4i EUL to migrate from 3 to 4 and then upgrade to 10g. If you don't have much invested in 3, then it might be a good chance to start clean in 10g. In your case, you install the base 3.1.37 Administrator version on your Windows desktop (that old installer requires it to be the first Oracle product installed and in the default home), then apply 3201601 to bring you to 4.1.48.06, then download and apply 4.1.48.08 (3451630 ).
    You can then upgrade the 3 EUL to 4, following the Administration Guide, located on OTN: http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/discoverer.html
    Then you can do the same with Discoverer 10G Administrator
    I'm just the messenger. Good Luck.

  • Discoverer 10g and Java 7- Anyone Document Incompatibilities

    Hi All,
    To provide a clearer picture to my IT steering committee, I am documenting Discoverer 10g / Java 7 incompatibilities.  As a company we are on Java 6 because of our Oracle Apps 12.1.3 implementation (we are not ready yet to make the jump to Java 7 on the apps side).
    Anyways, I have done some documentation of issues associated with Java 7 and Discoverer 10g, but I wanted to know if others have done some documentation.
    Here is my short list:
    -Can not enter text in the "name contains:" field associated with the "Open Workbook from Database" dialog box.
    -Can not edit column headings while editing workbooks.
    Any other issues people have noticed would be helpful.  I need to build a case for migrating to Discoverer 11g (which is compatible with Java 7).
    Thanks,
    Patrick

    M. Schroeder,
    Thanks for sharing your situation.
    Of course, trying to use Java 6 on the Discoverer Application Server side and Java 7 on the client side with Plus does not seem/sound like the smartest thing for us to being doing.  Certainly, this is not certified.
    Our intentions are to eventually migrate to OBIEE with OBIA, but a migration will be a large project and take some time.  There is hope that nothing needs to be done and everything will be okay in the interim.

  • DISCOVERER Plus connectivity issus

    Encountering a connection issue when using DISCOVERER Plus. When attempting to refresh (using the refresh icon) after five-ten minutes of being idle, the message "Failed to connect to database" is received. Users then have to reconnect to DISCOVERER via the connection screen. I don't have any knowledge about disvocer. The platform is windows.
    Your help will be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi,
    The first think you will want to check is the timout preference for Discoverer Plus.
    It is located in <oracle_home/discoverer/util/pref.txt
    Once you change it, you will need to run applpreferences.sh or applypfreferences.bat (for Windows) and the next sessions will pick up the change.
    Discoverer Viewer timeout is in the web.xml file.. see the Discoverer Configuration Guide on OTN

    Hope that helps.

  • Configuring Discovere Viewer

    I need to open a custom report instead of using the "Analyze..." link of the report I put in my portal page.
    I create a hidden link like this:
    http://<server>:7780/discoverer/viewer?userName=<name>&password=<pwd>&databaseIdentifier=<connStr>&connectionLocale=browser_selected&connectionType=PRIV&autoconnect=yes&connectionAccessType=OLAP&wbk=<workbookname>&wsk=<worksheetname>
    and it works.
    There is a little and significant difference between this version and the "Analyze..." version: there are many links I don't want to see, like "Exit", "Help", the Worksheet list and so on.
    Is there a possibility to configure the visualization of this page???
    Thanks

    Hi there,
    It’s possible to remove the items you want and change the way Viewer looks.
    There is two ways to go about this:
    Firstly you could apply a change directly to the presentation file on the Server, which will change the look of Viewer no matter what workbook is opened, or
    Secondly you could create a custom Presentation Template and use it in the URL to point it to your custom template.
    All these things are done differently depending on what version of Discoverer you’re on. Have a look here for more documentation and Configuration Guides for Discoverer: http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/discoverer.html or
    http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/html/B10273_01/customiz.htm#1014029
    This should give you a good place to start.

    Hello Richard
    You can use the Discoverer EUL Command Line for Java utility. This was released with Discoverer 10g (9.0.4).
    Please refer to the documentation for more information on how to use this command line interface: 'Oracle Discoverer EUL Command Line for Java User's Guide 10g (9.0.4), Part No. B10274_01 (PDF)' The document is available from OTN at http://otn.oracle.com/documentation/discoverer.html

  • CS3 PS PDF files for PDF Presentation . . . help!!!!

    I have made PDF presentation in previous versions of PS through automate or using Bridge. I used both jpeg and PS generated PDF files to create the presentation and never had a problem. I used the same file size and format to create a new presentation (section and title sheets with type) and could not get the pdf to view to be crisp and clear. I remade the base psd file to be twice the size, created PS PDFs and Bridge says it can't utilize the files. I've tried everything!! Does anybody know what the best format is for a PS based doc to be made into pdfs for a presentation????
