Error during upgrade from OBIEE 10G to 11G

Hello All
I ran into this issue while trying to upgrade my 10g RPD and catalog to 11.1.1.7
After installing 11G, I launched the upgrade utility from Oracle_Common/bin/ua in linux.
I am getting the below error:
UPGAST-00797: Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade Assistant cannot be run from an Application Developer Oracle home.
Based on the Oracle Doc. it has the following desc:
UPGAST-00797: Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade Assistant cannot be run from an Application Developer Oracle home.
Cause: The user has chosen to perform a upgrade from an Oracle home that does not allow an upgrade.
Action: None.
Level: 1
Type: ERROR
Impact: Upgrade
So what should I do to resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
First of all i am not familiar on linux box.
I tried in windows environment the rpd is deployed with out any errors.
But i ran the ua.bat file in the following path
\MWHOME\Oracle_BI1\bin\ua.bat.
while i am running in oracle_common\bin\ua.bat is not responding in my local system.
Please Mark if it helpful.

Challenges while Upgrading from OBIEE 10g to 11g

Hi Gurus,
This is Kiran again. This time I am back with the upgradation issues. We have a client which is currently on OBIEE 10g. All components are already configured in OBIEE 10g with client on RPD, Catalog and implemented all security levels for those.
Now the challenge is to upgrade all activities which we have configured in OBIEE 10g. I have seen lot of stuff online and understood how to upgrade from OBIEE 10g to OBIEE 11g by simply clicking on ua.bat file. But I am unable to understand the process how it is upgrading the securities and environments.
Can anyone help me out by providing necessary stuff I need to take care of before taking the decision to upgrade from OBIEE 10g to 11g.
And also please clear me whether we will have any challenges in upgrading process. If yes, then what kind of challenges we will face and what kind of necessary steps we need to implement to resolve it.
What kind of Architecture we need to follow?
How Schedulers will get upgraded?
Please help me out with your real experiences (Not the online websites). Your response will be highly appreciated and it will help lot of OBIEE professionals who are in the process of upgradation.
Thanks in Advance to all OBIEE GURUS.

Hi All, We upgraded RPD and web catalog from OBIEE 10g to 11.1.1.5. I see the following error while running few reports.

I verified Oracle BUG fix (11850704) document and tried to make changes as suggested.
Please suggest me if this issue is related to 10g to 11g RPD upgrade or are we missing any privileges?
Also should I add every user to BIAdministrator role to avoid this issue?

EPMMaster.rpd Fusion Pack migration from OBIEE 10g to 11g

We have successfully installed OBIEE 10g and 11g on Windows 2008 32bit servers. On the 10g Installation, we have applied the Fusion Pack EPMMaster RPD file and it connects successfully to our EPM warehouse. We want to migrate the Fusion pack to 11g which is also setup on the same platform. Per the instructions in the documentation, we have copied the files (RPD file and Webcat folder) to the 11g server. We run the UA.bat file and it proceeds to start copying the files over fom the RPD and WebCatalog to the new system. It completes this process, but then hangs on starting the Oracle BI server - it never gets beyond that.
We will be purchasing the EPMMaster RPD and know it is not available yet for 11g – however we’re trying to get ahead of the curve a bit and manually fix the items in the presentation layer that will not render correctly in 11g
upgrade exception occurred
Unable to start process: instance1: coreapplication_obis1
One thing that I noticed – Since the UA tool does not completely finish --
RPD size on 10g – 42,675KB; 11g – 6,375KB
I manually change the webcat in Enterprise Manager to the EPMMaster catalog -this actually caused additional errors on restart.
Has anyone attempted upgrading a delivered RPD to 11g?
Thanks in advance -

This is a known issue that we have worked through with Oracle tech support. The Dimension Deduction.Deduction Sid causes an error that prevents the UA tool from completing the upgrade process. There are a couple of ways around this, but the fastest is to simply delete the Dimension, the two related hierarchies and the fact table that is joined to this dimension. Physical table do not need to be touched however. There are still issues once it’s moved to 11g, but those can be addressed post migration. Thanks much to the Oracle support team for helping us out with this issue!

So now the customer wants to know what could be the reason for the upgrade failure.
It it because of the preferences are not valid in Discoverer 11g?

Hi Padmanabh
How are you doing the upgrade?
Personally, because you have to use a new weblogic server anyway I would install a clean 11g and then re-apply any preferences. With that done I would export the entire EUL from 10g and import it into the clean 11g. You'll be up and running in no time at all.
There is no need to upgrade the EUL as it is the same in both 10g R2 and 11g.
Best wishes
Michael

In upgrade of OBIEE 10g to 11g does one have to merge the RPD.

In Oracle's documentation they mentioned that the RPD and catalog need to be merged (Section 3.22 and 3.23) . However, i have successfully run upgrade assistant to upgrade the old catalog and rpd. Is there still a need to do the merges.

Hi,
Senthil following are ans to ur questions
1. After the SPAU remediation is completed, should I manually release the transport or should I start the upgrade and the upgrade will release that transport?
Ans : Once your SPAU remediation is completed you should release the requests and then start the upgrade of the DEV system.
2. How do we import this SPDD & SPAU transport in the QA and PRD, I mean at what stage of the upgrade we need to specify/ include this transport?
Ans : Now when you start the QA or PRD upgrade at that time you come across a phase during PREPARE called ADJUSTPRP.
Refer following note for further information --
SAPNote 124522 - Importing a modification adjustment in 2nd upgrade
3. Suppose the QA & PRD has more objects to adjust than our Dev box, and this transport will not take care of the delta objects, so in that case how should we remediate, we need to create an other transport request in QA and then it will become two transports?
Ans : First of all this should not be the scenario where you have more modified objects than that in DEV. As all the modfications should take place in DEV first and then should be transported to QA and then PRD. But in such case what you can do is complete the upgrade of QA system and then you are still having 14 days to complete the SPAU objects. So you can make another request which can be transported as a post upgrade activity once the upgrade is completed in production. For SPDD you will have to take care of the SPDD objects if there are different than those in DEV during the ACT_700 phase only or else you might risk data.
This is the reason why SAP always asks you to follow a proper transport path.
4. If our dev box has more objects for remediation than our QA & PRD, then will these objects be also imported into the QA & PRD box?
Ans : Yes, thats why you should be very sure about the SPAU objects that you have found in DEV. You need to compare the objects with QA and PRD and then only make the modifications.
I hope i have answered all your queries.

Suhas

You can use the program TWTOOL01 to determine the existence of matchcodes.

You can then use the function module DD_MCOB_DEL to delete matchcode objects, and the function module DD_OBJ_DEL to delete matchcode IDs.

None since they were replaces by search helps.

Hi
Is there any script which was generated by the OWB in the upgrade process?
Maybe OWB generates a drop and create script instead of alter script.
But I suggest to you to desing and manage the database modell in a design tool (Deveploper, PowerDesigner, ...) and generate the changes from this tool.

Can I install OBIEE 10g and 11g on the same machine?

While I'm waiting for new hardware, I wanted to get started on installing OBIEE 11g on my laptop. Can I do this if I already have 10g installed?
I want to make sure if I install it that it will not impact my current 10g setup. I'm not sure if it overrides certain files and folders or if I can do a separate installation to have both.

Hello everyone.
I have OBIEE 10g on my Production box pointing to the Oracle Database 11g R1 which is also having OWB integrated in it.
Now, I am planning to upgrade OBIEE 10g to 11g and Oracle Database from 11g R1 to 11g R2, so that OWB will also be upgarded, as it is integrated in 11gR2.
I am confused about, how to run RCU on the database, as OBIEE 10g schemas and packages will already be there in the database.
If I run RCU again, what will it do???
Has anyone done this before? or any good document available ?
Many Thanks,
Ahsan.

Can we activate Classic General Ledger in ECC6.0 during upgrade from 4.6C

Dear SAP Gurus,
Greetings
My Client's technical team had upgraded their system from 4.6C to ECC6.0 and they had activated classic GL instead of New GL. And they had also activated classic withholding tax in place of Extended Withholding tax.
They are facing some error during posting of transactions (like generation of excise invoices, posting of WHT transactions, etc.) I told that it can be a reason of not activating New GL.
Is my understanding correct...?? Can we activate classic GL during upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6.0...??
In case of a new client built (with ECC6.0), can we activate the classic GL instead of the New GL..??
Does the system will work correctly in the long run if they had activated classic GL and classic WHT...??
Please clarify. Thanks in advance for your time and efforts
Regards,
Chaps
P.S. Points will be awarded for answers !!

Hi,
I think that you should read long text of OSS note 999614 carfully and you are
aware of the fact that you will have additional migration efforts in
case you need to migrate to new G/L later on.
In case you are convinced that this is the best way please feel free
to deactivate new G/L as described in note 999614.
Please make sure that you deactivate new G/L in all clients of your
new system in case there were already client copies done.
Yes this is possible and I would not automatically assume that
error during posting of transactions are due to New GL not being activated.
Note 756146 documents the issue and possible repercussions
of using Classic GL.
In the case of a new installation the new G/L accounting
is active by default in ERP. In principle, the use
of the classic GL is also possible for new customers, however,
SAP does not recommend it since this requires an additional
migration expense in later years.

Aidan

Upgrading from OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 to 11.1.1.6.0

Hi,
We have to upgrade from OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 to 11.1.1.6.0 version.
Do we a patch to upgrade or download the complete software and do a Installation.
Please, let me know the steps, this is a little urgent.
Thanks for the help.

Beware the in-place upgrade since it introduces amongst other things an architectural error: https://groups.google.com/group/obiee-enterprise-methodology/browse_thread/thread/857c359fcab194a3?hl=en
11.1.1.6.4 is supposed to resolve this, but it jsut came out and I wasn't able to test that yet and no word from Oracle.
