Duplicate appSettings section using SharePoint 2007 Portal Integration Kit

We have installed the BusinessObjects XI Release 2 SharePoint 2007 Portal Integration Kit on a MOSS server and are successfully viewing reports in SharePoint.
But, when we ran the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard, the appSettings section of the web.config with only the Business Objects settings within gets duplicated.  This causes all of the SharePoint sites which use BO to go down becauase of the duplicate appSettings section.
Have you seen this behavior and is there a newer version of the integration kit available which may repair it?
Thanks,
Eric

As mentioned earlier we will have a native 64bit support for SharePoint 2007 64bit, probably next year.
It would be enhanced version of SharePoint 2007 PIK with functionalities at PAR with .NET infoview.
I will like to put a disclaimer mentioning that plans are subject to change

  • Unable to install the BusinessObjects XI Portal Integration Kits on shrepoi

    Hi all,
    I am attempting to install the following kit onto my sharepoint 2007 installation:
    BusinessObjects XI Release 2 SharePoint 2007 Portal Integration Kit
    Download BusinessObjects XI Release 2 SharePoint 2007 Portal Integration Kit - ZIP 5MB
    My Sharepoint is fully up to date and is version      12.0.0.6335.
    Each time i try to install, I get the message:SP3 Patch is required to install Sharepoint 2007 Integration Kit. I believe that this is already installed as whenever I try to install the SP3 Patch I get:
    The expected version of the product is installed on your system.
    I have checked and it looks to me that version 12.0.0.6335 is the most up to date and surpasses the SP3.
    Can anyone assist?
    Kind Regards,
    G

    Can you confirm the version of XIR2 from CMC application -> settings tab.
    XI R2 SP3 version start with 11.5 not with 12, please check you have installed the correct version of BOE.

  • Xcelsius Portal Integration kit for Sharepoint not showing in the gallary

    Hi Experts,
    I am testing the Xcelsius in my organization. After creating a dashboard , I am trying to integrate it in my Sharepoint portal.
    For that I installed SP webpart container in the server. During installation it was not showing any wizard to me for selecting the options. After installation , i am trying to configure it in the webpart galary but ! couln't find the Xcelsius Webpart container in that list.
    What to do to show it ? Could anyone guide me ?
    Regards,
    Jyothi

    i'm not sure how it works with Sharepoint... however, i can tell you how we use the portal integration kit within WebSphere Portal.
    first, the PIK itself is only used for BO integration, not Xcelsius integration (unless you are doing SSO in which case the BO login module is required).
    the Xcelsius integration comes from creating the web parts on the client. For example, for WebSphere there is a tool that is loaded onto the client machine called "XcelsiusPortletCreationUtility". the purpose of this utility is to take a swf file and wrap it in a war file that can be deployed to the portal. i would assume that  Sharepoint works in a similar way with a client utility.
    also, within the Xcelsius file you must create a portal data connection, even if it's not actually used.
    please look through your Xcelsius documentation or try to find the specific document that explains Sharepoint integration.

  • Upgrade SharePoint 2007 SSRS integrated mode to SharePoint 2013 Reporting Service (SSRS-2014)

    Hi
    We are upgrading a SP-2007 site with SSRS integrated reports to SP-2013 and SSRS-2014. As there are many changes done in SP-2013, I would like to know if any of the existing SP-2007 reporting service database need to upgraded to SP-2013 or just upgrading
    the SP-2007 content database to SP-2013 and creating a new Reporting Service application will be working fine?
    Thanks,
    Pat

    You'll want to do a few things:
    Export the encryption key from the SSRS Configuration application in SharePoint 2007.
    Migrate the content database from SharePoint 2007 SP2+ to SharePoint 2010, to finally SharePoint 2013.
    Install SSRS 2012 SP1+ on SharePoint 2013.
    Migrate the SSRS databases to the SharePoint 2013 SQL Server.
    Create a new SSRS Service Application in SharePoint 2013 using the same named databases on the new SQL Server.
    Import the encryption key to the SSRS SA.

  • Determine databases that are being used sharepoint 2007

    I have a Sharepoint farm where I am moving all databases over to a new server and configuring sql mirroring. Is there a way to tell which database's Sharepoint is currently using I need a way to tell system and content databases. So with that said does
    anyone know of a way to check this? I've gone into Sharepoint and selected the backup option in order to see a list of database names however I would like another way to verify which dbs are used.

    This is in the wrong forum, 2007 questions should be posted in the legacy forum.
    You've got "stsadm -o enumcontentdbs" which should give you all the content DBs but i don't know of one that will list all the other Shared Service Provider databases.

  • Websphere Portal Integration Kit

    Hi,
    I have gone thru the Websphere PIK and notice that the Authentication method that it supports is either secEnterprise or secLDAP with Siteminder. Can we integrate with Windows AD and single sign on for Webphere PIK?
    thanks and regards
    nora

    HI
    AUTigerFan could you or anyone possible offer some detailed help on how to tweek the releavant files mentioned i nyour message.  I appear to have a similar setup to what you described and would appreciate your comments.
    I have the following set up in a standalone lab environment server:
    Windows 2003 Enterprise Server
    IBM WebSphere Portal 6.1.x
    Sun ONE Directory Server
    Business Objects Enterprise XI Rel 2
    Portal Kit Rel 2 installed together with the files from
    JAAS SSO Enablement Extension for IBM WebSphere (BOLoginModule.jar and sso.jar)
    I followed quite clearly all of the indications in the documentation and when i configure the portlet kit web.xml file with secEnteprise  no user name or password.  I can sucessfully conect to the  Document List portlet with any account that exists in LDAP Repository as well as BOEbut can only acces what ever the guest account has access to in BOE.
    The BOLoginModule.jar is configured as per all the documentation  ie in the wp_profile session I create shared files for jar files indicated together with the new LoginModule, I also added the new parameters where I activated the type of authentication to secLDAP but it does not appear to  make any difference.
    Upon closer inspection of the BOLoginModule.class it would appear to have under the DefaultCMS the secEnterprise type authentication together with the guess account without password.  Which would explain why the only conecction allowed is secEnterprise.
    I want to be able to activate SSO access to all the different users registered in BOE and Directory server using secLDAP authentiacion.
    Has any one had any success implementing secLDAP authentication.  I am even now considering bypassing Portal altogether and incorporating CAS authentication as a workaround to implementing SSO between IBM Portal and BOE.
    Any help would be gretaly appreciated.
    Best regards

  • Installing SharePoint 2007 Integration Kit on BO XI R2 SP5

    Hi there,
    We are trying to install sharepoint 2007 integration kit but keep getting the error message:
    "SP3 patch is required to install the sharepoint 2007 integration kit"
    Our setup...
    SharePoint 2007 running on its own Windows 2003 server
    BusinessBojects Enterprise XI Release 2 Support Pack 5 running on its own Windows 2003 server
    We installed the .Net SDK and Web Componet Adapter (WCA) of BusinessBojects Enterprise XI Release 2 Support Pack 5 on our SharePoint server
    Now, both versions of .Net SDK and WCA are the same on BO and SharePoint as required
    However after two attempts of installing the PIK we still get the message
    "SP3 patch is required to install the sharepoint 2007 integration kit"
    Does anyone know what is requried here?
    Thanks,
    Bernard.

    Hi Amit,
    Thanks for your response. I am not 100% sure of the answer to question 1 as we had someone external patrhing our servers and attempting to install the PIK. But I have detailed below the Crystal related products that were put onto the SharePoint server:
    1)
    Crystal Reports Server XI
    Crystal Reports Server XI R2 Service Pack 2
    Crystal Reports Server XI R2 Service Pack 5
    Crystal Reports Server XI Release 2 .NET 2005 Server
    I think he could have selected just the .NET SDK and WCA components from the main install and got to SP5 that way.
    2) The PIK I believe is to be SP2 from looking at the setup.ini file
    Msi=win32\cesp2k7.msi
    ProductName=BusinessObjects XI SharePoint 2007 Portal Integration Kit
    MsiMajorVersion=2
    MsiMinorVersion=0
    MsiBuildNumber=2600

  • What do I need to install Integration Kit for SharePoint Server 2007

    What do I need to install the Integration Kit for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007? It gives me an SP3 needed error but does not tell me what SP3. Has any one sucessfully installed this kit? Please help.

    Hi,
    The sharepoint PIK is available for BO enterprise only. SP3 is refering to BO enterprise XIR2 SP3. This Service Pack is not available for CR 2008. In order to integrate CR 2008 in BO enterprise XIR3 you need to install SP0 on top of CR 2008. But as I said above without BO enterprise you won't be able to use the PIK.
    I copied the following system requirements from our Install Guide for BOE XiR3 PIK:
    System requirements
    For a list of system requirements, consult the Platforms.txt file included
    with your product distribution. For additional important information that may
    pertain to your deployment, it is also strongly recommended that you consult
    the Release Notes included with your product distribution.
    In general, the following components must be installed and configured
    correctly before you install the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0 Portal
    Integration Kit:
    u2022 Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services or Office SharePoint Portal
    Server 2003.
    u2022 BusinessObjects Enterprise XI .NET SDK (on your SharePoint machine
    or machines).
    u2022 Microsoft Windows Server 2003 (any edition).
    u2022 BusinessObjects Enterprise and Crystal Reports (on either the same
    machine and/or on a different machine).
    Kind regards,
    Tim

  • Does the BO Sharepoint 2007 Integration kit work with Sharepoint Serv 3.0?

    Hello,
    I have seen several posts about this topic but I still have not come to a correct conclusion. I have Windows Sharepoint Services 3.0 and BO Crystal Reports Server XI R2 SP3. The getting started documentation for SP3 specifically says the portal integration kit can be used with "MS Windows Sharepoint Services or Sharepoint Server 2007". However when I try to install the the integration kit I receive an error "Microsoft Sharepoint Server 2007 is required to install the Microsoft Sharepoint Integration Kit".
    Is this true? Do I have something setup wrong or is the documentation incorrect and only Sharepoint server 2007 is supported?
    It shows WSS as compatible in this document http://www.businessobjects.com/pdf/solutions/microsoft/bo_microsoft_interoperability_final.pdf
    Any clarification would be helpful as I have wasted 1+ days trying to figure this out. I just need to know if Sharepoint services and the Sharepoint integration kit will work together with Crystal Server XI R2 SP3.
    Thanks,
    Ryan

    Hello Ryan,
    I recommend to post this query to the [Integration Kits - Other|BusinessObjects Integration Kits; forum.
    This forum is dedicated to topics related to the other BusinessObjects Integration Kit.
    This forum is dedicated to topics related to other BusinessObjects Integration Kits, including Siebel, Baan, PeopleSoft, and JD Edwards.

  • Create URL to specific Business Object for a CRM using Portal integration

    Hello CRM Community,
    we're using the CRM Portal integration. To update our business users with tasks we use the standard functionality to send Alerts using the function module SALRT_CREATE_API. It allows to specify a URL that is added to the E-Mail created in the alert using the Table parameter IT_ACTIVITIES. This URL should be filled with a direct link to the business object that must be changed. For the stand-alone CRM there is the static Method CREATE_URL of the class CL_CRM_WEB_UTILITY to build such an URL. But I was not able to find a similar class/method/function module when the CRM is used integrated in the portal. Has anyone a simmilar requirement and was able to solve it?
    Best regards

  • Integration SAP iView in SharePoint 2007 IViewWebPart

    Hi All
    I have a problem with using SharePoint 2007 IViewWebPart. I configured trusted SAP hosts and I do not know what to write in the <SsoAuthentication Name="<MySAP>"/> element. SsoAuthentication Element specifies the SSO application to use when authenticating to the SAP Server. I tried the following: SAP, xApp, xApps and some other but it does not work. I have the following error:
    "The single sign-on application associated with this IView is not found. Contact your administrator to correct this problem".

  • Authentication issue with Xcelsius/Portal integration

    I am facing an issue with the way we have integrated our Xcelsius dashboard with our corporate portal. I know this probably is more of a SDK question than Administration, but I figured I will ask it here anyway since Tim and some others are diverse enough in their knowledge base. This might be LONG post but please advise if anyone has any good pointers.
    We have an Xcelsius dashboard that needs to be served up via our corporate intranet (based on MS Sharepoint 2007). Now we are NOT using the MS Sharepoint Portal Integration Kit, but just doing a basic integration of the SWF call within a web part on Sharepoint. All this means is that within a portlet (web-part) on Sharepoint, I am making a HTTP call to the openDocument URL to invoke the SWF file. So the SWF is actually served up from our Tomcat App Server, and displayed onto this frame within the portal. That is the basic idea.
    To achieve this, what I did was write some custom code using the Java SDK to modify the openDocument a little bit. By doing so, I was able to insert some behind-the-scenes-login code wherein no matter who the portal user (Win AD-based) is, he is logged in to BOE as a generic "dashboard-user" and the dashboard is served up. This worked fine for the first dashboard where all we had was SWF and some WebI linking using openDocument (no full-InfoView access).
    But in this second dashboard now, what we also have is a hyperlink for users to get to InfoView to do Ad-hoc reporting. What this does is open a child browser window from within the portal (dashboard) --- and it remembers the BOE session for the generic user id "dashboard-user" and logs the end-user in to InfoView using that. But what I actually want is that the end-users, on this new window, should only be prompted at the traditional InfoView logon screen where they can manually enter their Windows AD password and get in. Thus, I would like to keep the dashboard SWF page session separate from the InfoView ad-hoc session, which I cannot seem to do because of the browser relationship and session maintenance.
    I am trying to find a way where I can simulate a single sign-on for dashboard viewers on the portal, but at the same time let them jump off to InfoView as themselves.
    Any thoughts on how I can do this?
    Notes:
    We DO NOT have Single Sign-On enabled for InfoView
    We are using Windows AD authentication (manual, no SSO)
    We are on Tomcat

    Sarang Deshpande wrote:
    1) If the InfoView app on Tomcat (desktoplaunch) is configured with Vintela, openDocument calls from the portal with automatically work using behind the scenes SSO, correct?
    in XIR2 everything that falls under infoview should SSO when infoview is setup for SSO (not the case in XI 3.x)
    Sarang Deshpande wrote:
    2) What is the best practice when it comes to the service accounts needed? I have implemented Windows AD manual auth already so I have a service account that use for that. Should I be using the same on and making vintela/SSO-specific changes to it...or should I have a separate vintela service account and deal with two different ones..each for a diff purpose?
    There is no best practice per se but the less service account the lower your chances to duplicate an SPN, functionally everything seems to work just as well with multiple as it does with 1 (of course with 1 there is less management work) If you click the SSO link in my forum sticky post I have a section explaining this with some suggested methods of deploying a service account(s)
    Sarang Deshpande wrote:
    3) Other than some minor browser configurations that might be required, is there anything else that I should communicate to the team about what might be required to be "pushed" to users' PCs?
    Using the default config nothing should be required on the client machine (unless SSO has been disabled in the browser or you intend to use a url that contains a period ..... (i.e. FQDN or IP) with hostname URL (the default) it should just work.
    To note if you have XP SP2 or older there is a microsoft spnego bug you may need to apply a fix if you aren't patched to SP3 (about 5% of our customers run into this).

  • Problems opening PDFs from SharePoint 2007 with Acrobat X Pro

    We are currently migrating to Windows 7 x86, Acrobat X Pro, and Office Pro Plus 2010 SP1. Our old setup is Windows XP, Acrobat 8 Pro, and Office 2007. We are using SharePoint 2007. On our older machines, we are able to open and edit PDFs without any problems. However, on our newer machines with Acrobat X, we get this error whenever we open a PDF for editing:
    The document could not be opened for editing. A Windows SharePoint Services compatible application could not be found to edit the document.
    All of our XP users can open and edit documents without any problems--only our newly migrated Windows 7 users are unable to edit these documents. Is there a setting that I need to adjust in Acrobat X? I don't recall seeing any Acrobat X specific options in SharePoint configuration. Thanks!
    EDIT: I was able to open and edit a PDF document using the following steps:
    1. Click drop-down menu next to document and select "Check Out."
    2. In the check-out dialog box, check "Use my local drafts folder." Click OK.
    3. Back in SharePoint, click on document to open--click OK to message warning about malicious files.
    4. Edit document, then click Save button. Close Acrobat.
    5. Back in SharePoint, click drop-down menu next to document and select "Check In."
    6. Confirm the check-in.
    7. Redirected back to document library and the modified date and by fields are updated.
    This seems like an awful amount of steps. Is there a way to make this function the same when a user edits a Word or Excel document?
    Message was edited by: jprateragg
    Added info under EDIT.

    In Acrobat X, SharePoint Integration has been added which allows users to check-out/check-in the document from within Acrobat. Clicking the file from document library in Internet Explorer opens the file in Acrobat. The configuration that needs to be done on the SharePoint server is explained in the following KB article in section 11.1.
