Dsadm reports running servers as stopped

We were recently migrating an old setup onto somewhat newer platform, and found a piece of strange behavior: "dsadm info" reports both "dsins1" and "ads" instances as stopped, even though they are running. This happens both when they are integrated into SMF and not, 32-bit and 64-bit mode.
Platform: DSEE 6.3.1_sec, Solaris 10u8 x86_64
Because of this:
1) DSCC refuses to work (thinks ADS is down); likewise "dsccsetup status" returns incorrect "stopped" result (no surprise - I trussed that it calls dsadm for the status query).
2) SMF refuses to start - "dsadm start" quits instantly, though it spawns a working LDAP instance. It is however possible to force SMF to work properly by setting it up to call $INSTANCE_PATH/start-slapd and stop-slapd as SMF methods.
3) subsequent calls to "dsadm start" while the server is running don't detect that it exists, and the program removes the "invalid" pid file from the instance's logs directory. This makes further stop/restarts more tricky.
Also found that the start/stop scripts rely too much on pid files and don't inspect SMF_FMRI (or the service instance mentioned in $INSTANCE_PATH/config/state), so absent pid-files lead to misdiagnozed errors with default scripts. That is not difficult to fix, however...
Access rights seem normal, as compared to other similar systems. Old installation (cloned onto new VM and live-updated) did not show such behaviour...
So far I failed to truss anything reasonable out of this... any ideas, short of re-installation (which I'll try in another zone of the same box soon anyway)?
Thanks,

It seems that the problem was somehow because the server was installed in a 32-bit VM, and migrated onto a newer host capable of running the 64-bit VMs, so Solaris switched to that. While there were no actual problems with database files, source architecture seems to have got recorded there and confused some verifier routines?
I tested that a newly-made DS instance works as expected. Its start/stop scripts referenced "amd64" in the paths, but changing original dsins scripts accordingly did not help.
Ultimately, data and configs were exported from original instance, which was then destroyed. New instance remade in its place and data reimported again and replications reconfigured and customizations (plugins, acls) reapplied, and all works like it should now. Rinse and repeat for siblings in the MMR cluster.

How We Can Change Page Size During Report Run Time

Hello !
How We Can Change Page Size During Report Run Time .
How can we stop to change the column name when we amend a sql in report data model.
Thanks !

hello sohail
1. question - i'm afraid this cannot be done ... bit in report 6 and newer you have posibility to divide your report in 3 parts (former header, body, trailor) and each part can have diferent page siz, orientation , ...
2. question - best is give each column in your statements in one report diferent alias. when you have to chnge something, alias will remain same ...
try this: select 1 as fist_column, 1 as second_column from dual
hope this helsp

Strange problem... Query runs faster, but report runs slow...

Hi Gurus,
We are using Report 10g on 10g Application server and solaris. we created a report on a table which has 10,000 rows. The report has 25 columns. when we run this query in Toad it took 12 sec for fetching all these 10,000 rows
But when we run the report with Destype = 'FILE' and Desformat = 'DELIMITEDDDATA', it is taking 5 to 8 minutes
to open in excel ( we concatenated mimetype=vnd-msexcel at the end of the url if the Destype=FILE). We removed the layout in the report as it is taking 10 to 15 mins to run to Screen with Desformat=HTML/PDF(formating pages taking more time). We are wondering why DELIMITEDDATA format is taking long time as it runs only query.
Does RWSERVLET take more time of writing the data to the Physical file in the cache dir? Our cache size is 1 GB. we have 2 report servers clustered. Tracing is off.
Please advise me if there are any report server settings to boost the performance.
Thanks alot,
Ram.

One Report, Two Servers, Debugging

I have a report that uses multi-select parameters.
It is deployed on two SSRS 2008 R2 Report Servers.
It will run on one but not other.
Are there any kinds of SSRS 2008 R2 debugging tools to find out what is the difference between the two servers?
It may be an ODBC driver but I am not sure.
Thank you.

First we need to identify what is generating the error on the one server. This error occurs when you pass too much for a given data type. For instance, on one server an int parameter value that is generated from a SQL query might result in a bigint value
that overflows the int data type. Or a string passed to a char(10) might exceed 10 characters while it does not on the other server.
What is the query text where these 2 parameters are used?
If you remove these parameters from the data set filter, will the report run without the error?
If so, what are the values for these 2 parameters? (add 2 text boxes to the report to display the parameter values using Join(Parameters!Parameter1.Value,"; "))
Then we need to determine why it is not happening on the other.
Why is it deployed to 2 servers? Is it connecting to different data sources?
What is the difference between the two servers where it is deployed.

Unused Objects Content Report runs forever

Dear Portal Gurus
we have a lot of content in our portal (thousands of objects created by us)
The main part is from uploading the ERP Roles into the portal.
Our guess is, that quite a bit is not used at all.
It seems that the two "Unused Objects" reports in the support platform are a good starting point for cleaning up.
When i run the Unused Objects - not assigned to Roles report on one server node, it takes forever (is running more than 24 hours)
Does anybody else have this problem too?
Is there a way to get a result anyway?
I ran the Broken Delta Links Detector before, which runs successfully - even though not very fast. So these reports run in general.
We have NW 7.0 SPS 14.
Thanks in advance for your help and best Regards
Martin

Hello Michael
Thank you for your reply.
Personalization is mainly disabled in our portal.
In general the deltalinks were used correctly i think.
Of course broken delatalinks should not exist, but they get created by deleting objects not by creating deltalinks.
I'll try it with a call.
Kind Regards
Martin

Dear Friends,
There is a report run by the Pastoral Board called: Registered Lessees
DOL PN PLBU DATA ENTRY
DRDL Pastoral Station Information

This report lists the information containted within the Pastoral stations module.
The pastoral stations module is linked to our Customer creation module.
We are having an issue, whenever we create a new customer or amend one, the information is dropping of the Pastoral Stations module
Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi
The problem i sthat the function in the custom folder evaluated by the Oracle fisrt and after that are evaluated the functions which sets the global variables from the parameters.
So if you open the workbook nothing selected but the global variables has set and the next time you got the result with the previos parameters.
If you change the parameters it wouldn't change the result set only if you refresh it again without changing the parameters.
This is not a good solution for using parameters in custom folders. As I know there is no good solution for this problem yet.

Report runs in Report Builder but hangs in Report Server

Hi,
I am using Oracle Reports 10g to build a report with many formula columns. Everything was working perfectly till I added some condition in a query in formula columns. After adding it, report is not working in Report Server but runs only in Report Builder. If I removed this condition, report runs OK but I need it. This condition is very simple, just filtering be a decoded column (i.e. stts = 'D')
Can anyone suggest how to solve this problem?

Hi,
what is the application server version you are running your reports on?
If it is 10.1.2.0.2 to 10.1.2.2 and you are using PDF SUBSETTING (check the [PDF:Subset] section in the uifont.ali file in your server) then you are most probably facing Bug:5029259 . To resolve the issue read further Doc ID 363868.1 in Oracle Support. In short, your options are:
1. apply patchset 10.1.2.3 or maybe patch 5029259 is enough.
2. or make sure no NULL values are returned in the report. Use nvl where possible. If there was no problem before making the changes then maybe checking the new formula columns would be enough. I made this change myself when facing this issue and it appears that this resolved the problem.
3. or change REPORTS_ENHANCED_SUBSET to NO in windows registry if under windows or $ORACLE_HOME/bin/reports.sh if under linux. REPORTS_ENHANCED_SUBSET=YES is necessary if you are using TTF subsetting, though. So this might not be an option.

Error when OO ALV report run in background

Hello all,
We recently applied stack 12 for a 7.0 system. My custom ALV report using CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER coding now returns an error when run in Background. It works fine in dialog.
The error occurred in program CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER=======CP. The log message was "Control Framework: Fatal error - GUI cannot be reached".
Is there a solution for OO ALV reports run in the background? I would not like to re-write my ALV reports using the function call. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!!

Yes, you need to code it a little differently, but you can still use CL_GUI_ALV_GRID. Here is an example.
REPORT ZRICH_0006 .
DATA: ITAB TYPE TABLE OF MARA.
DATA: R_GRID TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.
DATA: R_CONTROL TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER.
DATA: G_DOCK TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER.
DATA: OKCODE type sy-ucomm.
START-OF-SELECTION.

CALL SCREEN 100.
*& Module STATUS_0100 OUTPUT
* text
MODULE STATUS_0100 OUTPUT.
SET PF-STATUS '0100'.
SET TITLEBAR '0100'.
IF R_CONTROL IS INITIAL.
* Check whether the program is run in batch or foreground

      CREATE OBJECT R_CONTROL EXPORTING CONTAINER_NAME = 'CONTAINER_1'.
      CREATE OBJECT R_GRID EXPORTING I_PARENT = R_CONTROL.

    ENDIF.
    CALL METHOD R_GRID->SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY

    IT_OUTTAB = ITAB.
ENDIF.

Crash report runs a long time after startup

Crash report runs for about 1-1/2 hour after startup.

did you check how much time the entire report takes to execute (evn though the first 25 rows comes up quickly). I suspect it is > 30 mins.
OBIEE is not meant as a data dump tool and there is little that could be done. (except better hardware)

How can i see Log information of Report Run Time?

Hi Gurus,
How can i see Log information of Report Run Time?, till now i am counted report run time manually. Is there any way i can see the workbook running time in log information?.
Thanks & Regards
Vikram

There could be a few things -
At one time, you needed to run a separate script to create the tables. I'm not sure that is still the case. If you check the Administrators guide, look into the chapter that deals with the EUL Status Workbooks.
If you are not logged on as the eul owner, you may not have select privileges, or you may need to qualify the table with the schema (if there is no synonym) - select * from <eul_owner>.EUL5_QPP_STATS;
If you are on 4i, the table is EUL4_QPP_STATS

SSRS reports running slow while fetching data from SQL server DB

We are currently facing issues with lots of our SSRS reports running very slow. Approx they are taking around 15-20 minutes compared to earlier which was 2-3 minutes.
Also, the SSRS reports which fetch their data from a Database is acting as Subscriber for a reporting server. That is we have an OLTP DB server whose Database say 'A' is getting replicated onto the server where say Database 'B'. On this B we have our SSRS
reports fetching the required data and are reported to be running very slow.
As a start I have checked for Index and stats to be properly updated and yes they are.
I am not sure now, from where to start analysing the issue.
I believe replication, not to be the issue as earlier also we had replication set up and never saw the slowness.
IS memory or IO causing a problem, please help as i am not sure on how to find a fix for this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
You need to first find out what all are slow? Is it that the whole instance is slow? How about other queries /replication etc against those databases? Are they slow?
Check the reports which are slow, try to find the slowest reports and then start looking at execution plans. Check if there is any kind of blocking happening during the time the reports run. Also try running the reports manually and see if there is a difference
in execution time. Take a look at the waitstats during the time the reports are running.

CR2008 report runs in designer but fails when deployed

Hi,
I have a report that was originally developed in CR XI. It worked perfectly fine in CRS XI also. We upgraded the server to CRS2008. But my report does not run on the server now. It gives the error "Invalid field name". However, the report runs fine when run from CR 2008 developer, CR XI and CRS XI. It gives the error when run from CRS2008 or run via a dot.net application.
Any help to resolve this issue is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Bin,
Post your question in SDK forum.
[NET Development - Crystal Reports|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio;
With following details:
Have you applied any service pack for Crystal Reports?
Visual studio version?
Windows or web application?
Operating system?
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all SDK queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thank you for your understanding,

Oracle 10g Reports running slow

On one server we have an issue with some reports of 2pages taking 2 minutes or more to run, but on another server with the same data transferred across the same report runs in about 3-5 seconds.
The reports we are having issues with contain graphs.
The server spec is better on the slower running report server than the other report server.
How can I fix this?

Hi,
did you any exceptions you in the logs of report server??
Location:
$ORACLE_HOME/reports/logs/ <report_server> / .
Remove a trace,when your executing the graphical report.
It would help you to finding why the report is taking so much time
please follow the below link for tracing the reports in OAS 10g
