Error due to Passing value in Live Office prompt
Hi All,
I have a webi report that is inserted in excel using live office. Connection is set to refresh on demand and the prompts are fed by linking cells in excel.
When a value example "James, Carter" is passed to the prompt i get the "Failed to fetch data provider data (LO26306)" error. I am sure it is happening only when there is a comma in between the text, if there is no comma then it is fine. If i pass the value in webi report it works fine(With or without the comma) it is happening only with live office. Is there any solution for this?
Thanks
J
I have tried the option of replacing the comma with %2C but it dint work.
The value i am passing to a live office prompt consists of a comma and hence i am getting this error. If i have plain words. Also when i passed (AB) that is brackets i am getting the exact result. I do have these different scenarios in my data.
Can anyone help.

Error while refreshing BO objects using live office
Hi Forum,
We are getting below error while refreshing the data using Live Office plug-in on PPT.
“An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to http://........ This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server.”
This error comes in exact 5 minutes.
The server name used for web service is from a clustered environment. When the individual node is used Live office refresh works fine but while using the generic name refresh fails.
Please provide your inputs.Hi Honed,
Take the backup of dsws.properties file and do the following changes:
properties values
domain @<clustername>
session.timeout value higher than 5 minutes
Below pdf can help you further:

OPA Launch error due to invalid value in Siebel regex error
Hi All,
Consider OPA launch from Siebel if there are 1000 attribute's on global and out of these 1000's 300 have a regular expression check if for one of the attribute in Siebel database value does not fit into reg-ex criteria OPA launch will fail. but logs won't reveal for which value OPA launch has failed. How will I be able to find out the Column Public name or field which has invalid value in OPA.
Thanks,
Kunal SharmaHi Frank,
Thanks for reply the limitaion is not that system validates the data befor picking up from Siebel. That is a good thing we need to ensure we get proper data whenevr we try to launch form but the greatest limitation is that it does not provide the public name due to which form launch is failing even in the application logs. If it would have provided the public name atleast person could have gone and rectified the data to fit in regex criteria. I am here pointing out the limitation of logging not that Why application is checking data.
I am happy that application validates it but I am not happy that application does not tell me why it is failing.
Thanks,
However you can generate the reprt of attributes containing regex by copying properties file changing the extention to xml opening it in excel and using filter to see what attributes have regex after that you can make corresponding SQL queries to point out which column contains incorrect data and maybe you can ven clean it using SQL.

Passing values to report and prompting.
I have a multivalue parameter that I pass a list of values to based on permissions. I still need the person running the report to be ablle to pick and choose what they want to see on the report. When I pass the values to the parameter it turns off prompting. How do I force prompting on a parameter I have set?
Using:
VS 2005
asp.net
vb.net
CR XI r2 ver 11.5.8.826
This is the TEST code.
Dim rpt As New ReportDocument
Dim AppPath As String
Dim ActGrpValues As New ParameterValues
Dim PDV As New ParameterDiscreteValue
'Server.MapPath("Sales By Activity Group - Detail.rpt")
AppPath = Request.PhysicalApplicationPath
rpt.Load(AppPath + "TUCSNTucson Massage\Sales By Activity Group - Detail.rpt")
rpt.SetDatabaseLogon("", "")
rpt.SetParameterValue("start date", "09/01/2009")
rpt.SetParameterValue("end date", "09/30/2009")
rpt.SetParameterValue("location", 100)
'rpt.SetParameterValue("activity group", 1, 10, 20)
PDV = New ParameterDiscreteValue
PDV.Value = 26
ActGrpValues.Add(PDV)
PDV = New ParameterDiscreteValue
PDV.Value = 27
ActGrpValues.Add(PDV)
PDV = New ParameterDiscreteValue
PDV.Value = 28
ActGrpValues.Add(PDV)
PDV = New ParameterDiscreteValue
PDV.Value = 29
ActGrpValues.Add(PDV)
rpt.SetParameterValue("activity group", PDV)
CRViewer.ReportSource = rpt
Activity group is the multivalue field. I have gone through the SDK. How do I turn on the prompting?
Thanks,

Edited by: Dan Pearce on Oct 2, 2009 9:36 PMLet me try to clear it up.
Each user has there own permissions. Those permissions allow them to have different options they can report on.
So, for me my list that I can report on might be:
Apple
Oranges
Grapes.
I only want to run the report on oranges not all 3 items. So I would select oranges when prompted.
Someone else might have this list:
Apples
Almonds
Cakes
Raisins
They want to run their report using cakes and Almonds when prompted.
I want to control the list of items that the end users sees but I still need to allow them to select what items from that list they want on the report. So I pass in the list of items they can report on but they select what items in the list they need.

Fatal error during installation of Live Office XI 3.1
Hello everyone,
Im getting Fatal Error during the installation of BOBJ Live Office XI 3.1. The full description: "The installation ended prematurely because of an error." This error occurs immediately after popup with Installer Information.
Maybe it happens because of my system: Windows 7 64 bit, MS Office 2010.
Do you have any advice how can I install it?
Thank you and best regards,
SofijaHi,
you should check the PAR but I'm pretty sure it doesn't run on Windows 7 nor on MS 2010.

Live Office: Database logon failed error
Please help...Live Office problem...
Am working in Xcelsius 2008.
Here's what I'm trying to do:
1. I set up a Crystal Report using a Stored Procedure as the data provider.
2. The Stored Procedure has a parameter built into it.
3. When the report is refreshed within Crystal, the prompt dialog box is displayed; I fill in the desired value, and run. Everything comes back fine.
4. Crystal Report is exported to the repository.
5. In Excel, I inserted the Crystal Report using Live Office. It shows up as a Live Office object just fine.
6. I bound an Excel cell to the prompt; when you change the value in the bound cell, the Live Office object refreshes and displays the correct results.
7. In Xcelsius, I imported the Excel spreadsheet.
8. I set up a Text component that is bound to the cell containing the parameter value. Also set up a Grid to display the results, and a Connection Refresh button to call the refresh. Added a Live Office Data Connection pointing to the Web Service URL for the report.
Note: When in Designer mode, if the value of the bound cell is changed, the results in the grid change accordingly.
9. When in Preview mode (or generated swf), if the Refresh button is pressed, a "User Identification" dialog box appears asking me to log on. The values it asks for are: System, User Name, Password, and Authentication. I enter the same credentials as are within the Live Office settings in Excel, (which are working correctly), but receive an error "soapenv:Server.generalException: Database logon failed.".
Note - all the id's are synced up - Business Objects, Database, etc.
I've tried all kinds of combinations, but nothing gets me past this error. If I use any other server than the system one, the error message is "soapenv:Server.generalException: Server XXXXX not found or server may be down".
I've noticed that in Excel directly, when I open the spreadsheet and refresh the Live Office object, I am prompted to log on to the database where the stored procedure is being executed. This dialog box does not appear once the Excel sheet has been imported into Xcelsius. One of the combinations I tried in the "User Identification" dialog box was the name of the database server, that didn't work either.
I also tried creating the Live Office object directly within the Excel spreadsheet in Xcelsius, but then I was unable to bind the prompt value. Could never get the Live Office/Properties menu to appear.
Ideas? Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
StephanieGot it!
Here's what I had to do...
In the CMC, under Object/Process/Database for the Crystal Report -
which says...
"Set the default information for logging onto the data source(s) automatically whenever the report is run."
The Database Connection option had to be set to "Use custom database logon information specified here" and
the When Viewing Report option set to "Use same database logon as when report is run".
Then everything works fine - prompts appear, and Xcelsius passes the log on information to the database correctly. Stored procedure executes and returns the correct results.
Thanks to everyone for their help!

Live office database errors in Citrix - underlying WebI reports work fine
Hi,
We have a live office report with 30 tabs in the excel file i.e. 30 webi report parts in it. It accesses 20 webi reports, each built on a BEX query.
Please see below the error which users get while running the report in Citrix environment. The underlying WebI report has no database errors, and we were able to run the Live Office reports at the same time on LAN. The Citirx users get these database/auth errors intermittently, on different tabs of the report at different times - the underlying BO reports are error free and users have proper rights to execute them.
"An error occured while opening the report. The report does not exist; youhave insufficient rights to open the report; or you cannot make a connection to the BusinessObjects Web Service. (LO 02010)
Failed to get the document information (LO 26315)
A database error occured. The database error text is: ...."
Please help.
Thanks,
SoumyaHi,
BO Version is BO XI 3.1 SP2 FP2.1
Datasource - BEX queries BW Relese 701, support pack level 8
We have made users login to Infoview and checked that they are able to execute the WebI reports. Also, earlier they were able to run all reports, so there is no access problem.
These errors started occuring when we had to refersh BO Universes after some of the BEX queries changed. We even asked users to stop using the excel files on which they used to get errors, thinking the files may be corrupt. Then we sent them new files which we had successfully refershed at our end. But still they get these errors in their environment.
Please advise.
Thanks,

I'm building an Xcelisus dashboard using Live Office to access a Crystal Report as the data source, which in turn uses an SAP BW query to retrieve the data.
All has been working fine for many weeks, but suddenly I can no longer access a Crystal Report from Xcelsius. When I try to select a report I get this error:
An error occurred while opening the report. The report does not exist; you have insufficient rights to open the report; or you cannot make a connection to the BusinessObjects Web Service. (LO 02010)
I am able to view the report from Crystal Reports and from InfoView. Interestingly, I can no longer View any reports from CMC logged in as Administrator - I get a blank white window when I try.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
RobHello All,
It turns out the Live Office error 02010 was caused by the Report Application Server being disabled. Enabling it solved the problem. However I still have the problem where I can't View a Crystal Report in BOE - I just get a blank window and hourglass. I can work around this for now using InfoView, which works, but any suggestions to resolve the issue would be appreciated.
Thanks,

SatyaHi Ingo,
Yes the same report can be accessed from Infoview and we don't have any issues but once we save the live office objects locally on desktop then trying to connect to LIVE OFFICE to refresh the reports then we are getting the message.
Authentication method in Live office is SAP and I didn't check "Enable windows active directorysingle sign on"
Authentication method in Universe is " Use Specified user name and Password"
Can you please help me what could be the reason for the issue and how to resolve that.

Error LO 26603 crystal reports - live office - xcelsius
Hello Experts,
I have the problem that I can not refresh data via Live Office in an Xcelsius Dashboard in the preview. When I try to refresh the data the following error occurs: Database logon failed. (LO26603)
To the scenario: I built a Crystal Reports report connecting to a SAP IS-U table and had imported it via Live Office in an Excel file. When I refresh the report in Excel it works fine. Then I opened a new file in Xcelsius and imported the Excel Spreadsheet. At this time it is still possible to refresh the report by starting it in the Excel workspace and logon at SAP IS-U.
But then I start the preview for the dashboard I first logon at BO-Enterprise and then the error occurs. I choose the Enterprise authentication. In this case I miss the logon-screen for the SAP IS-U. So I can not type the logon/user data.
I use the Xcelsius 2008 SP3 with FP3.2, Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 and BO Integration Kit for SAP SP3.
Can anybody help me please. I need your help.Hello Alec,
check out if this helps.

Live Office Error when connecting to SAP BW data (Offline dashboard)
Hi experts,
we have built up an Live Office connection to SAP BW query data to create a dashboards, which can show the data also in offlne mode. We are using exactly the same procedure as recommanded by Ingo Hilgofort in [End-to-End Scenarios With Xcelsius 2008|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/90ad73b1-506c-2b10-9e9b-9fde523f010a].
When trying to refresh the Live Office connection using the "Refresh" button in the dashboard we receive the error LO 26301: The current refresh option requires a report instance that does not exist.
The recommended action is: Change the refresh option of the object or use the CMC to schedule a new instance.
But creating an instance of the dashboard is not possible. What is meant by that? Is it necessary that we embed the Xcelsius flash into a PDF or a Crystal Report? What are our alternatives?
Best regards,

Hi,
I have the subreport calling from the main report. The subreport is based on MDX query agianst the SSAS cube. some dimensions in cube has values 0 and 1.
when I try to pass '0' to the sub report as the parameter value, it gives an error "Data Retrieval failed for the report, please check the log for more details".
Actually I am using table for storing these parameter values. In the main report I am calling this table (dataset) and passing these values to subreport.
so I have given like [0],[1] and this works fine. when I give only either [0] or [1] then it is throwing an error.
Could you please advise on this.
Appreciate all and any help.
Thanks,
DivyaHi Divya,
Based on the current description, I understand that there is no issue if you pass two values from main report to subreport, while the issue occurs when passing one value to subreport.
To narrow down the issue, I want to confirm whether the subreport can run if there is only [0] or [1] in the subreport. If so, it indicates the query statements exist error in the subreport. If it’s not the case, this shows the issue occurs during passing
values from main report to subreport. To make further analysis, please post the details of query statements of the subreport to the forum.

Hello expert,
Need your help its Urgent
Currently, in my report when user clicks on a particular column, popup will be display with more information for that particular data. This is working perfectly fine only if data or passing value doesn't contain “&” (and sign) character. If my data has got the “&” sign then popup will display with page not found error.
Any suggestion or alternative, Please reply it’s urgent,
Thanks in advance
SagarHello sagardori,
The first possible situation:
The ampersand (&) is used in the URL syntax to pass variables. So if you have a text like this in an item:
Hello I am the one & this is the otherthe parameter will pass like this:
P1_ITEM:Hello I am the one & this is the other
And the & will define that there iis a new parameter.
Always use:
& instead of & when using an URL with HTML
Had to put it in code tags, because it doesn't escape on the forum as well :)
P.S.
You can of course check the parameter in the URL of your popup page
The second possible situation:
When using special chars in APEX, you should be aware that the default way to handle text fields, textareas or even display values (like in a report) have 2 modes.
1. Display as text(escape special characters)
2. Standard Report Column
There are actually some more variations but these two are the most straightforward. If you use the first, all special characters will be escaped. So if you put in:
<script type='text/javascript'>
alert('Hello, is it me you looking for');
</script>You will get exactly that code, only because it's escaped.
If you would put it in as a standard report column, it would show the alert box, because the code's not escaped, thus treated as a javascript.
So in short,
1. Check your URL (especially passing parameters)
2. Check your report settings for the right type of text handling.
Hope this helps,
Greetings,
Rutger

Live office logon error : LO02040
Hi,
We are facing one strange issue in Live office
Environment - BO XI 3.1 SP3 + FP 3.6
SAP EHP 1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 - BW as the source
We are using SAP aithentication. The user is imported to BO from SAP BW. The credentials were working fine till last week. Recently BO is upgraded from BO XI 3.1 Sp3 to Fp 3.6.
Now when the user is trying to login to Live office with SAP BW credentials the following error message is displayed
" An error occurred while logging on (LO02040)"
Failed while trying to logon user <username>#<password>. RFC Error : "LOGON_DATA_INCOMPLETE"
Its strange because all other users able to login and only this user is facing this issue.
Please let us know if anyone has faced this kind of issues and found any solution
Regards
SivakamiHi,
I have some more information that we found from the user!
We have Iviews created for BO reports in Portal.
Portal has SSO enabled to BW/BO. The user is able to logon to portal
with AD and SSO is working also. Because there are some WEBI reports in
portal which the user is able to execute. The issue comes when she
directly tries to login to LO or Infoview with SAP authentication.
When the user is logged on to portal in one IE window, and when she
opens infoview in the same IE as a different tab, it logs her in
without prompting for SAP password. But ultimately the user requires to
login to LOwith SAP authentication to refresh the MOnthly reports. Hope
these information helps to understand the issue better.
Thanks and waiting for a suggestion from anyone of you

Live Office XI 3.1 "Unknowned" Error
We are trying to use Live Office XI 3.1 (latest SP and FP) in Excel 2007 to create a single column dataset with approx. 250,000 rows. The file size for this dataset is approx. 12mb and in the CMC we have set the "Maximum Character Stream Size" to 50mb in the Webi Processing Server settings. The process returns a very generic error message stating "An error occurred when refreshing". When we click the "Show Details" button, we get the "unknowned error" message. We have successfully run a much smaller dataset from the same universe.
Any ideas why the larger dataset would return this error?
Thanks.Figured out the answer to this. When bringing in large amounts of data into Excel 2007 from LO, you have to force Excel out of Compatibility Mode when it starts up. If not, Excel 2007 starts up as Excel 2003 and you're limited in the number of rows a LO query can return.
Thanks.
