Essbase 11.1.1.1.3 Server install - Unable to create application

Hello, I did a full install of this version. After working through the config for Shared Services using SQL Server, I installed the package in "Essbase standalone mode" which is really all I need. I have encountered a couple of problems trying to get this finished.
I have started the ESSBASE.exe server file and it is "Waiting for Client requests"
I have started the Oracle EPM System->Essbase->Admin Services->Start Admin Services (Embedded Java Container). Tomcat -eas says it is "Waiting for Client Requests"
When I launch the EAS console, I am unable to add the EAS admin Server using "Machine Address:10080" which I confirmed is the EAS connection port.
I can however add this server to my Essbase server list via another Administrative Server. I connect using the same machine address syntax as above less the port number and am communicating with the server. I can add users. I can not add an application though. I get the following message in the essbase logs that have been modified today. I can't find a specific server log other than the easserver.log.
Please help me troubleshoot. Thanks very much.

Hi,
You should be able to create an application by going to http://<machine name>:8300/HyperionPlanning/Appwizard.jsp
Make sure you are logging in with an administrator that also has the shared service roles of Application Creator, Dimension Editor.
If you are having problems still, you can stop planning running as a service, start it from the start menu and it should log errors to the command window.
Cheers
John

Can you try downloading the Adobe installer, then start it via Run as administrator? Maybe use a different browser?

After Leopard install "unable to create /folder/filename..."

I have upgraded my MacBook and iMac to Leopard, no problems. However, on my iMac (only), in many applications I get an error message when I'm trying to save a file. For example, in iPhoto if I export to desktop I get an error message "unable to create.... /folder/directory filename". Same thing if I export to an already existing folder. However, files I make and save with Word etc. work fine. Is there some selective locking device on Apple?

Hello Rollie2t,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with installing the printer on to your Windows Vista computer.
Please make sure that you do NOT have the usb cable connected to the printer and the computer when doing the download and the installation. You will be prompted as to when to connect the usb cable during the installation so please do NOT connect it before hand.
I also suggest that you disable the Windows Firewall and any anti virus protection before attempting to download the software and drivers.
Here is the link for the HP Deskjet Full Feature Software and Drivers.

New Oracle HTTP server install unable to host remote HTMLDB.

Hi all.
I installed the Oracle HTTP Server from the Oracle 10G Release 1 companion CD on a Mac Powerbook running the Tiger OS. I have a CentOS Linux server on my network with Oracle 10G R2 database running that I've installed HTMLDB 2.0 on. I can not seem to get the HTTP server to serve up a front end to my HTMLDB. I can connect and log into the Oracle Database from the MAC using SQLPlus using the HTMLDB_PUBLIC_USER account and password.

Hello Thomas,
It looks like a Solaris issue. Check if the home directory
/home is reserved in the Solaris configuration.
Check if this fix the problem please perform the following steps:
1. modify /etc/auto_master file to change the entry for '/home' to say
'/autohome' instead
2. reboot
3. rmdir /home
4. ln -s /export/home /home (make sure /export/home exists)
Also you could create soladm manually in advance.
Hope this helps,

Oracle management server install/configure

i am running oracle 8.1.6 on linux 6.2.My enterprise manager is loaded on a win 98 platform.Whenever i want to connect to the server on linux for tuning and backup features the application ask's for the oracle management server .Could you tell me what is it and how to install/configure such a server

Oracle Enterprise Manager was designed for 3-tier architecture where:
tier 1 are your client tools, i.e. OEM consoles and DBA management packs
tier 2 is the middle tier which is the managment server with the repository(this is another database not managed through the OEM console.)
tier 3 are your nodes, i.e. the databases, listeners, and other services.
On another server, install oracle software, create a database with a minimum of a system tablespace and temporary tablespace.
From your OEM(Oracle Enterprise Manager) console on your Windows 98 platform, go to OEM configuration assistant, connect to the oracle database that you just created(see above) as system/manager. Create a new repository and select to create a new tablespace called OEM_REPOSITORY. The owner of this tablespace is preferably a person who is not a user on the system, just make someone up. Use your temporary tablespace for the temp and not the system tablespace. It will create the repository in your database.
Now, connect through the OEM console, the initial username is SYSMAN password OEM_TEMP. It will make you change the password for security reasons. You will have to discover the databases on all of your nodes(tier 3) in order to manage them. Don't try to manage your middle tier database that has your management server with OEM console.
Hope this helps,
Rob

Configuration of 2 Essbase Servers on one Shared Services Server

Hi,
Components Installed:
Essbase Server and Shared Services on 1st Server
Workspace, HFR and Web Analysis Installed on 2nd server. I have configured them and everything is working fine. No issues with this environment.
Requirement:
There is a Essbase server installed on Server 3. Its a Standalone. We want to make use of the Application created here and its security(groups etc) for creating reports through Workspace.
Question: Can I configure this Essabase server to the Shared Services which sits on Server1 (which already configured with Essbase already). If it is, are there any risks that we need to consider here.
Please advise me on this.
Thanks, UB

Thank you so much for your quick solution.
Please correct me If I am wrong here.
1) I need to run the configuration Utility on Server3 and give the same details used for Essbase in Server1. or
Is it ok if I run the Register with Shared services through Essbase Console on Server3 and point to the Shared Services server. I think by doing this, one more Essbase Node created in the Shared Services and the security on Essbase Server 3 can be utilized for generating Reports from Workspace.
Please advice John..
Regards, UB

License File for Hyperion Essbase Release 7.1.6.7 Server window

I have to install Hyperion Essbase Release 7.1.6.7 Server windows on window2003. Have been locking for the license file for this version on l"http://licensecodes.oracle.com/hyperion.html". However could not locate the file for the respective Essbase version. Can anyone kindly let me know from where can I download the license file.
Thanks in advance.
Pragati

I think the docs are just out of date/incorrect (fancy that).
Per http://licensecodes.oracle.com/hyperion.html:
Essbase
6.0 - 7.0      11 000000 263A639A-FFE AD52863F
7.1 - 7.1.1      11 000000 463A639A-FFE AF528631
7.1.2 - 7.1.6.3 Click here for options
7.1.6.5      NoneI clicked on the "Click here" link and went to: http://licensecodes.oracle.com/hyperion_essbase.html
And on that page I see:
Alternately, you may download and install Essbase 7.1.6.5 available from Oracle E-Delivery. You can locate this software and corresponding documentation by selecting the Hyperion Performance Management BI product pack and the appropriate operating system. Search results will display the Pre-Version 9 media pack which includes the 7.1.6.5 software. This fix does not require a license file.Note the last sentence -- you are free and clear of license files.
I always wondered where people were getting copies of 7.1.x -- apparently there's a pre-version media pack -- I had no idea.

What I wish I'd Known Before My Lion Server Install

The truth is that I am on my FIFTH Lion Server install on the same box this week. While I was working on #4, I went ahead and submitted a ticket with Apple and arranged a timeslot for this morning to work with them to help me past my struggles with Lion Server. This post is the result of that experience. Big props to Apple support techs Chuck and Don - you know who you are!
What I Wish I'd Known Before My Lion Server Install
1. Do NOT migrate user accounts, apps, and files, until AFTER you have the Server set up and working correctly.
- This one tip, which is brilliantly simple, would have saved me four very long days of head bashing.
2. Server Admin Tools are mandatory.
- The first time around I used the Server App to configure the system (after an upgrade install, and subsequently after a clean install + migration).
- Server Admin allows you to set up the foundation of your server - which it NEEDS!
- DNS - configure a local, pseudo domain for your server if you're doing this at home. Something like "mynet.private" - if you don't, your SSL certificates can get all jacked up, your clients will not trust your certs. This breaks a lot of stuff.
3. Do NOT accept the mDNS .local domain suffix for your Server
- At each step, if something auto-fills your server name as name.local reject it, and use the fully qualified domain name that you set up above (server.mynet.private).
- If you do not do this, anything that requires certificates could/will have big problems.
4. Enable services one at a time. Reboot after EACH major phase past the core Lion install.
- Base install ... Server install. REBOOT
- DNS configuration. REBOOT
- validate your host name - I needed to force a 'changeip' command because there was a problem with the HOSTNAME retaining the mdns .local domain name.
- OD Master config. REBOOT
- Set up Podcast Producer (which will also setup your Xgrid). REBOOT
5. Take images of your hard drive as you go.
- Once I got the core server installed, the basic services above, I rebooted and held the option key, then restarted on the Recovery HD image.
- Use Disk Utility to take a snapshot image of your hard disk so you can get back to this wonderful place of everything working! It's cheap insurance, and adds a bit of extra time, but is well worth it. If you leave the default settings alone (the 'compressed' one in particular) it will use as little space as possible. My server at this stage of configuration created a 4GB disk image.
6. Use the Migration Assistant After the above
- Now you can migrate your apps
- Migrate your users
- etc.
If you use the Migration option while you're installing the server, or if you upgrade on top of your Snow Leopard (or whatever), I can almost guarantee you that you are in for a world of hurt.
I struggled through all kinds of issues with files having embedded information, scattered throughout all the various subsystems, that gummed up my installation and would case all manner of the flakey Lion Server behavior that you read about ("Error Reading Configuration").
If you want to use Podcast Producer, or any of the Profile Manager features, the above methodology was the only way that I could get them to work. Often times I'd have everything working, then reboot and it would break. After I did the above, the system is as solid as a rock.
Today, I love Lion Server. Yesterday I was cursing it.
Best of luck!!

There are 2 distinct apps in Lion Server.... Podcast (in Server app) and Podcast Producer (Server admin which is deemed legacy from SNS). Podcast uses Podcast Publisher instead of Podcast Capture to produce, edit and submit to Podcast app. Podcast doesn't requre Xgrid where PCP did. The two don't mix.
It's as clear as mud in all the documentation about this.
We're finding that Podcast Publisher has much more flexibility that Podcast Capture (edit, episodes & more), can use existing workflow from PCP, doesn't require xgrid, and podcasts can easily be managed by non-IT people via the Podcast wiki as opposed to the CLI pcast commands to edit & modify PCP feeds.
Hope this helps.

How to set system time from Terminal while booted from 10.6.3 server install disk?

I'm installing from a 10.6.3 server install disc onto a Mac Mini. However, the battery on this Mac Mini is pretty much dead, forcing the system time back to 1/1/2001. Through some research, this has created a problem in that I cannot move beyond the Welcome screen during setup of OS X server. It looks like the binary has issues with the system time being older.
But I'm stuck in that I don't know how to adjust the system time from the Terminal Utility on the boot CD. Can anyone help?

Hey, i just run in to something similar, tonight while trying to fix a computer.
The user set the time and date on his computer to 1998 and computer locked everything including time and date in system preferences, and his user account basicly making him from administrator to guest. he could not almost any program properly that required administrator privilages.
to fix this we used this comand in terminal " sudo date 201703162014 " todays time and date
20:17 03/16 2014
we tryed everything and this fixed in 2 seconds
ps: when you type sudo in terminal it whil give you a warning the improper use of this command is bad.... click continue.otherwhise you will not be able to execute the command.
thanks again for this post and have a great day

SCSM Management Server install error

Hi All
I have a curious error with regards to an SCSM 2012 R2 Management Server install to a Windows Server 2012 with local SQL Server 2012 Standard); the SCSM 2012 R2 Data warehouse Server installed fine on a separate server. I've checked that the install
account has full SQL, Local and Domain Admins (for install), I've also fired the install from an elevated command prompt but with same error, I've also checked that PowerShell is set to Unrestricted. There is also mention of a Timeout in the below error,

Thanks Thomas
Yep had checked permissions, see below. Any others that I may have over looked that you can think of?
1. Login \ install account as local Admin on the Server
2. Login \ install account has full SQL SysAdmin rights, was also used for installing the SQL Instance locally
3. Checked account in AD so that it is ok for Kerberos Delegation
One thing is that I have specified this account for all account options during install (since its a test environment), in production would usually create distinct accounts, is this likely to be an issue though?
Will attempt install again but use Local System etc instead of specifying my domain account just to check \ see if error changes.
Kind Regards

Mac mini server install DVD - install on a different computer

I bought a Mac mini server (= a Mac mini with a Mac OS X Snow Leopard Server pre-installed) a while ago. I am planning to install Lion Server on the same Mac Mini and get rid of the Snow Leopard installation DVD. My question is, can the DVD that came with the Mac mini be used to install the server OS on a different computer (another Mac mini or iMac etc.)? or is it somehow tied to the original Mac mini?
Thanks!

Install discs included with a Mac are only able to install on the same model Mac. However historically Mac OS X Server install discs are not limited in the same way. (Remember there is no such thing as a Lion install disc.)
The server install disc is more typically limited in being an older version of Mac OS X e.g. 10.6.3 and thus not able to boot and install on the latest model Macs. It is however possible to boot and install on an older Mac e.g. an older Mac mini but install on to an external hard disk which might even be the internal hard disk of another Mac connected via FireWire Target Disk Mode. You can then run the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Server Combo update to update it to the latest Snow Leopard Server version which will then boot successfully on all the current Macs including those that have only ever shipped with Lion.
Since a DVD disk takes very little space I would suggest you don't throw it away.

Forms Server Install on Redhat Linux 7.0

I am attempting to install Forms6i/Reports6i/Graphics6i on my Linux Box.
I already have a 8.1.6 Database configured and running.
After downloading the tar file and extracting it I am having trouble with the installation of the software. The Guide refers to running the orainstal shell script in the orinstall directory. Well when I execute the script I get a Character Installer and I was expecting the Java based Gui Installer such as the one with Oracle 8i DB. I cannot get the oraviewer program to work either for I wanted to see if there were some other setting I am not executing correctly.
When I continue with the Char Installer it has trouble finding a lib called X11m.a or something (Motif related).
Does Forms 6i require Motif? If so where and how do I get it for my Linux box? Are there any work arounds for this.
Any help is greatly apprecicated.
Thanks

Hello Shawn,
Yes, you need motif libraries. You can obtain it for free from: http://www.metrolink.com/products/Motif/download.html
I installed both runtime and development packages.
Aditionally you may ned to have X-devel packages installed.
After struggling with Forms installation on my linux machine I managed to do this, but let me tell you that it's not so simple. First of all please excuse my bad English, I'm not a native speaker. Anyway that's how I did it.
I assume that you downloaded the file d2k6irelease2.tar from technet. This file includes Forms 6i rel. 2 Server and Developer.
I managed to install this on my RedHat 7.1 machine having already installed Oracle 8.1.7 database Server.
First of I created a separate user which owns Forms Server software. I set this user as belonging to the same group ("dba" in my case) as the oracle database software owner. (On my machine I have "oracle" user which owns databse server belonging to the "dba" group and "forms" user belonging also to the "dba" group). You must set your environment like this (in ".bash-profile" in my case):
-- Begin .bash_profile file
# .bash_profile
# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
# User specific environment and startup programs
unset LANG
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
BASH_ENV=$HOME/.bashrc
ORACLE_BASE=/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/forms
ORACLE_SID=forms
ORACLE_AUTOREG=$ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk60/admin
TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora
ORACLE_TERM=vt220
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib
TWO_TASK=oratest
MMTK_AVIPLAYER="xanim %s &"
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
DISPLAY=TEST_MACHINE:0.0
export ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME LD_LIBRARY_PATH TWO_TASK MMTK_AVIPLAYER
export TNS_ADMIN DISPLAY ORACLE_AUTOREG ORACLE_TERM ORACLE_SID
export BASH_ENV PATH
unset USERNAME
-- End .bash_profile file
As you can see I set up ORACLE_BASE to the same ORACLE_BASE as database software ORACLE_BASE, a new ORACLE_HOME, a dummy ORACLE_SID, TWO_TASK to the sid of your 8.1.6 server instance, TNS_ADMIN pointing to a directory which I created manually before starting the installer (see below my "tnsnames.ora" file under this manually created directory), ORACLE_AUTOREG, ORACLE_TERM, DISPLAY set to your_hostname:0.0, LD_LIBRARY_PATH as seen, MMTK_AVIPLAYER is for playing ".avi' files (I didn't tried this). You may need to "chmod 775" on your $ORACLE_HOME directory from the database user account.
-- Begin "tnsnames.ora" file
ORATEST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = TEST_MACHINE)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = oratest)
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = PLSExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
-- End "tnsnames.ora" file
I untared d2k6irelease2.tar under a subdirectory created under "forms" home directory. In "unixdoc/Server" directory you will find linux_svr.pdf instructions for installation of Forms server and under "unixdoc/Developer" you will find linux_dev.pdf instructions for Developer Server. "oraview" didn't worked for me either. GUI installer didn't worked for me either. Chnaging to orainst you may issue ./orainst command and start the installation in character mode (I did not even started an X session). I choosed default install, do not create database objects (I think you will be able to install later this objects by running some sql scripts, I didn't). And I choosed all components presented and all options and default port parameters. You will also be prompted to confirm locations of the motif libraries. I choosed http mode for forms server. Do not install Reports security feature (I've heard that it's not working, this option will be presented to you somewhere at the end of installation). After finishing you may need to edit "forms60_server" file and some other files. For example I had to change my "host_name.domain_name" (in my case was "TEST_MACHINE.(none)") to my IP address as I don't have a DNS server here.
That's what I did to test forms server:
I wanted to test my Forms server by running Apache web server (the one that is installed by default by linux). (in the documetation you will find references to the WebDB listener which as far as I know is no longer installed in release 2, so the documentation is obsolete regarding this module). For this you will have to edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file. Look for the section "Alias" and "AliasScript". under your forms $ORACLE_HOME/orainst you will find two files "forms6iconfig.txt" and "reports6iconfig.txt". You will find there actions to be performed by you manually. in "forms6iconfig.txt" file you will find virtual mappings for physical directories. You have to put this entries in "httpd.conf" file. You must edit this file as "root". For example 'Alias /dev60temp/ "/oracle/product/forms/tools/web60/temp/"'. The exception I made was for "/dev60cgi" virtaul mapping which I've put under ScriptAlias section 'ScriptAlias /dev60cgi/ "/oracle/product/forms/tools/web60/cgi/"'.
After succesfully editing the file you will ned to restart http server:
#/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
Login again as "forms" user.
In $ORACLE_HOME directory isuue:
$./forms60_server start
This will start your forms server listener.
After that you can test your forms server running from an external machine by entering: http://ip_addres_of_linux_machine/dev60html/runform.htm
and after completing parameters you will see "text.fmx" form applet saying that Forms server is installed corectlly or directly: http://ip_addres_of_linux_machine/dev60cgi/f60cgi
You have to install Jinitiator to view the applet. It will be prompted for you to download it when accessing the above address.
To be honest I was disapointed to see that forms server is very slow. And I mean very slow.
In the end please let me excuse if I wasn't clear in some points. If you have any questions please post them on the list. I'm not an expert and I may have made mistakes, but in the same time I hope this will help you setting up forms server on your linux box.
I forgot to mention that you will probably see a message saying that "formsweb.cfg was not found" when accesing "http://..../f60cgi". If you see this you have to options: either make a symlink "forms60" in the root directory to $ORACLE_HOME/forms60 directory or add a line in your "httpd.conf" file (I put this lines the last ones):
#Include 6iserver configuration file for setting formsweb.cfg path
include "/developer_home/conf/6iserver.conf"
And in $ORACLE_HOME create a directory named "conf". In this directory create a file named "6iserver.conf" and put the following line in it:
SetEnv FORMS60_WEB_CONFIG_FILE /developer_home/forms60/server/formsweb.cfg
This will set your environment correctly and you will be able to see the test form. Don't forget to restart apache web server and forms listener.
Kindly,

How to set up Group Policy without any server installed

How to set up Group Policy on Win8 without any server installed?
I have set up 50 users on LAN and want to push softwares via one common point. From google I found to deploy Software using Group Policy. But then Group Policy occurs in Servers and I don't have any server set up.

Hello,
a Domain requires at least one Windows server OS machine which has Active Directory installed.
As previous already mentioned from SenneVL this also requires that computers are added to the domain and that you create user accounts in Active Directory users and computers which stores the account information in the Active directory database.
In your case with single computers each machine has its own database(SAM) which stores passwords etc. this is different in a domain.
Each computer has a local policy which will be overwritten from centrally managed policies from the domain.
"The common point would be my PC (Admin PC) ."
This machine can not be used for your needs with software installation for 50 computers.
"How To Use the Group Policy Editor to Manage Local Computer Policy."
This is about the local machine and you cannot manage them for other computers from your Admin PC.
"DOMAIN part: By default Microsoft takes everyone on Workgroup. Is that not a default DOMAIN? or should I make one lets say "ABC" on every PC ?"
NO, this is NOT a domain.
