Getting BO 4.1 File Repository Server Error

I am trying to save a 2008 report directly from Crystal Reports 2008 to a BO 4.1 repository and I am getting the following error
<Caution Triangle Image> File Repository Server Error:
I am able to upload the 2008 Crystal Report using the Add / Local Document directly to the BO 4.1 server but it only allows me to make a copy not overwrite.
Does anyone know what I need to do, if anything to get it so I can save the report directly form Crystal Reports
thanks

Hi Alan,
CR 2008 is supposed to work with BO XI 3.1. For BI 4.1 you should use CR 2013.

Hi,
Please check if you have changed the FRS path if yes make sure the FRS path is correct and exists.
You can do that by logging into CMC --> Servers --> Input/Output File Repository server properties.
Please also check the below OSS notes for more details
1615899 - The document can't be retrieved from the File Repository Server. (Error: WIS 30951)

Hi,
Am trying to export relational and OLAP universe to repository and getting an error.

Is anybody faced such issue?
I suspect it is a configuration issue/product bug.

Getting following error "The requested directory does not exist." for Input and Out put file repository server.
The specfied directory exists and the user has local administrative privelges with full control of the IFRS and OFRS location.
The location was earlier working and after trying to implement Windows AD the things stopped. Have tried reverting the things but the following issue still persists.
Thanks,
Manpreet

@Siva,
I am not using the defacult FRS, I have specfied a specfic location on which the user has full control.
this was working prior to the Windows AD setup tried by me.

"File Repository Server error" when trying to commit a new CrystalEnterprise.Program instance to the InfoStore

I've run into an issue where saving a new CrystalEnterprise.Program instance is throwing an ambiguous exception with no other information than a generic HRESULT code and the even less useful error message "File Repository Server error". I've debugged the code using the COMException managed debugging assistant and Reflector to get to the callsite of the COM object, but there is nothing there to indicate what the actual File Repository error is attributed to. Logging for the InputFileRepository service in the CMS was been set to HIGH, but nothing shows there as a result of my code executing.
The call to myInfoStore.Commit(...) is where the COMException is thrown.
    protected void CreateProgramObject(InfoStore infoStore)
        using(PluginManager pluginManager = infoStore.PluginManager)
            using(InfoObjects newCollection = infoStore.NewInfoObjectCollection())
                using(PluginInfo programPlugin = pluginManager.GetPluginInfo("CrystalEnterprise.Program"))
                    using(Program tempProg = (Program)newCollection.Add(programPlugin))
                        const string USER_FOLDER_QUERY =
                            "Select SI_ID From CI_INFOOBJECTS Where SI_NAME = '[email protected]'";
                        using(InfoObjects folders = infoStore.Query(USER_FOLDER_QUERY))
                            if(folders.Count < 1)
                                Response.Write("No user folder was found!");
                                return;
                            using(InfoObject userReportFolder = folders[1])
                                tempProg.Title = "Scheduled File";
                                tempProg.Description = "My new program";
                                tempProg.ParentID = userReportFolder.ID;
                                tempProg.ProgramType = CeProgramType.ceScript;
                                tempProg.Files.Add(@"E:\sample.bat");
                                try
                                    infoStore.Commit(newCollection);
                                catch(SystemException snx)
                                   Trace.Write(snx.ToString());
Has anyone run into this issue and found a resolution?

Thank you for the reply. I changed the file path on the BOE Server to match the path I'm using in the Files.Add(...) call. At least now I get a different error message, but it's still not enough to resolve the issue. The message is "File Repository Server error : File system operation for D:\Scripts\test.bat on File Repository Server failed. If the problem persists, please contact your system administrator for event log information." I verified the service account the SIA service runs under can access that path, but still no luck.
Using a UNC path resulted in the original "File Repository Server error" message in the Exception.

File Repository Server error : Failed to determine whether there is enough

Hi, We have setup a new server and while loading file we are getting following error message.
File Repository Server error : Failed to determine whether there is enough disk space. We are on BOXI R2 SP3 on windows server 2003 with WAS on IIS 6.0.
From CMC the error message is:
There was an error while retrieving data from the server: Unable to open file C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\tmp875.txt.
I ran Input FRS with a particular port and was able to ping FRS on that port. So port is opened.
Does anyone know reason for this?
Thanks,
Kalpesh

Can you elaborate exactly what you had to resolve this issue.
Thanks, Mani

Configuring the file server in KM and access,edit the documents from it

Hi friends,
My requirement is to configure the file server where u will have all the structured and unstructured data stored here. So users can share the documents and create, edit ,save the documents from the file server itself.
In KM what kind of file servers are there apart from the one it supports by default.
Can anybody pls provide the configuration steps regarding how to configure the file server i KM.
To configure the file server is webDAV protocol required?
Points would be assigned for the helpful answer.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Sireesha.

Dear Sireesha,
Well KM supports mostly all the File server however we have some restrictions with Novell FS and Sharepoint Server from Microsoft. Like versions and other meta data have some issues.
Alsothough to configure a File Server you need to first create a FS repository Manager. Details can be found in the help guide:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/92322ab24e11d5993800508b6b8b11/frameset.htm">FS Repository Manager</a>
Yes WebDAV protocol is required here.
You can create WebDav RM as well.

Error 1923. Service 'Input File Repository Server' (BOBJInputFileServer) co

I get the following error:
Error 1923. Service 'Input File Repository Server' (BOBJInputFileServer) could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services.
I am trying to perform the install as an admin. I previously had the server installed but had to uninstall and now I cannot re-install. how would I do a complete uninstall of all registry components, etc. if necessary?

Ok. Please open the services browser (Start->Programs->Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services) and check if there are any BOBJ services still listed (like the Input File Repository Server).
If you find any services still listed, please use instsrv.exe to remove them (even if the services are stopped and/or deactivated). Try to install again after you have removed all BOBJ related services.

Cannot refresh table - test connection works fine but refresh gives "We couldn't refresh the connection. Please go to existing connections and verify they connect to the file or server." error.

I'm having some difficulty updating a table in my powerpivot data model. The data for the table is stored in a local excel file; if I go to
Existing Connections select the connection and do a test then everything is successful. When however I try to refresh that particular table I get the following error:
"We couldn’t refresh the connection. Please go to existing connections and verify they connect to the file or server."
In the past I had this and it was an authentication issue, the files are stored on SharePoint and I wasn't logged in to Sharepoint - I have however checked this and it can't be the issue because I have other tables linked to other excel files in the same
location that are refreshing without issue. Can anyone think of what may be causing it?
I have even tried creating a new local excel with the same data, added it to the data model and then tried a refresh and I I get exactly the same issue.
Are there any known issues with refreshing data from an Excel file if, after the initial import, you add columns to the table in the excel file I was wondering if this might contribute?
Thanks

Hi Maracles,
Thanks for your post.
From your description, I tried to reproduce this issue on my test environment. However, everything is fine for me. Could you please post the specific version of SQL Server PowerPivot for Excel?
You can try to use a trace file to troubleshoot errors in PowerPivot. If this issue still persists, please try to reinstall SQL Server PowerPivot for Excel to see if this helps.

Error: File Not Found on File Repository Server

Post Author: Ashish.Phanse
CA Forum: Exporting
Hi
We have clustered 2 servers and all the services of both the servers have CMS Name as "@<Cluster_Name>"
But when we run any crystal report through the thin client(portal) or through crystal itself, it is showing the errror ---
"xxxxxxxx.rpt not found on File Repository Server". If I check the path for report in CMC and if I check physical location, the file is present.
This is happening only with Crystal reports and not with DESKI or WEBI reports.
Please help...
Thanks

Report not found in File Repository Server

I am looking for some guidance as to what to try next with this issue.
We had ran into some issues with the central management service and had to reinstall crystal. During the setup we are connecting to our mysql database and the reports and folder structure is restored in the Central Management Console but when the reports are previewed or scheduled to run they fail I receive the following message:
"File generated name.rpt not found on File Repository Server.
Unable to retrieve Object.
File generated name.rpt not found on File Repository Server."
Has anyone came across this issue and if they could provide a solution would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

there are very many forum posts and SAp knowledge articles on this topic/error message. Please do use search before posting.
The repository that stores all your objects in Crystal is dual one part is int he DB - called CMS DB - it stores all te metadata, and second part is FRS (Input /Output servers) - they store actual physical reports and instances on the disc.
My guess is that during re-install you either wiped out original FRS location or after re-install didn't point your FRS to the right place.
If its second - all you need to do is point FRS to the right directory and you'll get your reports back.
If it's first - you just lost all your reports/universes etc.... and will need to restore from backup.
