"evdre encountered a problem retrieving data from the webserver"

Hi
We are using a big report which takes very long time to expand and sometimes we get the error message "evdre encountered a problem retrieving data from the webserver" when expanding the report, but not very often for most of our users. But we have one user who gets this error message almost every second time he expands the report. This user have a computer with same capacity as the rest of us, can there be some setting on the computer or in the client installtion the cause this problem?
We are using BPC 5.1 SP 5

Hi,
This error occurs usually if we have huge data in combination of our dimensions.
Even, if the selection of your memberset is not apt to the combination of the data present in the back end, you may encounter a data retrival error.

  • EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server

    Hi,
    I'm working on a presales AppSet "Demo5b".
    When I create a brand-new EVDRE report on FINANCE app, there is no problem.
    However, after changing to ICMATCHING app, when I type =EVDRE() on a blank sheet and press Refresh, the following message pops up.
    EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server
    Retrying in (??) seconds
    Any idea why this happens and how it can be solved?
    Thanks!

    Hi Joost,
    I have the same problem. When I try to retrieve data on an input schedule is launched that error.
    I am working on an VM on MS BPC.
    I am not working with cubes so the solution is not the same.
    If i process all my dimensions this error does not appear any more?

  • Error retrieving data from the web server in Excel fo BPC

    Hello Everybody,
    I'm working with BPC v7.5 , i created some reports with the EVDRE formula and they were working perfectly.
    The problem started when i created new users, that in fact have the same access profile and task profile as my user.
    i started to test these new users in excel and every time i expand the report this legend appears: " EVDRE Retrying... EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server. Retrying in (X) Seconds...". After waiting a while a push cancel, then appears a window with the legend: Ev4excel Addin, Errors found retriening data.
    The funny thing is that when i login back to my user everything works fine again, any idea what could be the problem? the other user have the same permissions.
    Thanks a lot in advance!!
    Nidia Olguí

    very strange. Normally the member access profile must be diifferent. So it is not important the task profile but the member access profile. Can you please double check ?
    If you are doing a simple EVDRE with users having problems is it working or you still have problems?

  • EVDRE encountered an error retriving data from web server in PROD

    Hi friends,
    We are checking Evdre reports in BPC production system. We checked few application' EVdre input templates & reports and are fine.
    But yesterday evening onwards we are facing below error message.

    Hi frineds,
    SAP OSS team resolved along with our basis guy.
    Initially SAP supported notes:
    1.1475233 and 1378705 Process all dimensions and applications.
    2.1355954 Drop SAP temp tables.
    3.1428764 confilict only if you use Oracle 10 g, if you don't, then forget it.
    I used 1378705 and problem resolved temporarly, but still exists after 1 day.
    There are different reasons for getting the error message. In our case, problem is at backend BW and, BW system running on HP unix OS.
    Checked librfc32.dll in the
    directory /usr/sap/BP1/DVEBMGS00/exe.
    Executed the following MDX statment in MDXTEST transcaction, and it
    executed in both the available instances.
    SELECT
    {[Measures].MEMBERS} ON COLUMNS,
    [0MATERIAL].[LEVEL00].MEMBERS ON ROWS
    FROM [$ZCO_CDPC].
    Even i also don't have clue how SAP resolved this issue.

  • Failed to retrieve data from the database crystal reports 2008 in SAP  B1

    Hello friends,
                 I am using Crystal report 2008 with SAP B1 PL 8.8. When I run any report,  it runs correctly from Crystal Report. But whenever I try to open the same report through SAP ( Tools -> Preview External Crystal Report ), it prompts the parameters for that report and then open up the crystal report window and throws an Error message ("failed to retrieve data from the database. Details [Database Vendor Code: 156]").
               Please any one suggest me the corrective solution.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Keyur Raval.

    I had the same problem in SAP B1 2007. Report worked fine except when it was open from B1. Generally there may be different problems. In my case the same problem was caused by using some procedure which was in a specific schema. Changing the schema into "dbo" solved the problem.

  • Failed to retrieve data from the database/invalid argument provided when employing link between two web services datasources

    Post Author: vpost
    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    I am trying to join information from two related web services within CR XI. I have successfully set up the web services as data sources have been able to get to the point where I get good data back. However, when I try to pull in certain fields, I get an error that says "Failed to retrieve data from the database/invalid argument provided". Here's the scenario:
    The web services are structured as follows:Web Service 1 (Artist) has attributes of Artist Name and Date of Birth.Web Service 2 (CD) has attributes of CD Title and Release Date. Underneath each CD are songs, each of which have a Song Title and Artist Name.
    I have defined both web services and defined a link between Artist.Artist Name and CD/Song.Artist Name. I am able to run a report with Song Title and Date of Birth that crosses web services. I am able to run another report with Song Title and CD Title that crosses the different levels in the second web service. However, if I add CD Title to the first report or Date of Birth to the second (both of which effectively force CR to employ the link between the two web services AND the CD/Song hierarchical structure in the second web service, I get the aforementioned error.
    Any assistance understanding how multiple web services can be linked in this manner would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Not sure about your exact situation, but having similar problem with another application and have tracked down to security. Added user to group Domain Admin and it works fine. It appears to be accessing a subdirectory which it does not have permission to use and then times out and returns the "invalid....". Seems that once the query just over a certain size (and I'm not sure what triggers this) it needs to make use of temparory file disk, intead of ram.
    I'm still trying to track down which temporary it's trying to uses - so if you have any ques.

  • Failed to retrieve data from the database Error

    I had some reports setup in Crystal XI based on a Sql server but recently we had an upgrade, the database has been moved to IBM Informix.
    There is a certain table that seems to be causing the problem.
    The error: 
    "Failed to retrieve data from the database
    Details: 42000:[informix][informix ODBC Driver][informix]A syntax error has occured .[Database Vendor Code:-201]".
    I run the same query in MS Access and it seems to run fine.
    I even tried to do a simple dump of the table onto Crystal but no luck.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Achett13

    Hi,
    It seems your ODBC Driver is not compatible, try to download a driver which supports Informix through CR XI.  I think you may have to download Data Direct Drivers 5.1 version to access Informix data tables through CR XI.
    You can google it for Data Direct Drivers 5.1
    Thanks,

  • Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details: [Database Vendor .....

    Hello,
    I hope that is the right forum for this issue.
    We have the application 'Lodestar' for some years.
    The frond-end is ASP and the database is Oracle 9. Lodestar has its own backend language "Rules language". The crystal version is 10
    Now we have a new version of Lodestar with ASP and ASP.NET, Oracle 11g and Crystal 11.
    But when we run some reports with the new version we get the error "Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 1652 ] Failed to retrieve data from the database." When I google on this error then it seems that it has something todo with tablespace.
    We have changed the tablespace volume from 32Gb to 100Gb, but we still get this error.
    Has anybody an idea what the cause could be?

    Thanks all for you're reaction.
    Oke we have changed the temp space from 30 Gigs --> 200 Gigs, but still the problem occurs. To make the temp tablespace is not the good direction, this is what the dba'er told me.
    I'm not a guru with SQL/Oracle, but what for me hard to understand is" why does it work with the old version and not with the new version anymore?
    It is a very difficult view with unions (I'm not the developer of this view), and I think I'm gonna try to break-down this view in different small parts and try to find where it goes wrong. I don't see any other way to investigate this problem.
    (I see now the reaction of upul indika.)

    Have you been able to resolve this yet?  I don't have any reference to Oracle error codes but would suspect a quick Google of something like 'Oracle error code 997' should result in good information, since it is an Oracle error...
    Hope this helps.

  • MS Access - Failed to retrieve data from the database

    Hello,
    I've developed a quite complex report (CR XI) from a SQL Server 2005 database. The report contains a number of inner and outer joins and a subreport.
    I have a duplicate copy of the database held in MS Access. If I attempt to change the datasource location to the MS Access database, I'm unable to run the report and get the following error:
    Failed to retrieve data from the database.
    Details: ADO Error Code: 0x80040e14
    Source: Microsoft JET Database Engine
    Description: Join expression not supported.
    SQL State: 3000
    Native Error: -540806602 (Database Vendor Code: -540806602)
    By changing every outer join to an inner, the report pulls in data but obviously not what is required. It seems as though it doesn't like the outer joins.......
    Would this be in some way due to limitations with the JET database engine?
    Thanks in advance,
    Dom

  • Dynamic parameter - Failed to retrieve data from the database

    I'm running  a report with dynamic parameters and this report ran successfully for 2 days . For no apparent reason they stopped and the error message was received.  There was no interference from head office soI'm at a loss to explain why the viewer / reports suddenly stopped working.
    Now  I get the following message:
    Prompting failed with the following error message:
    'List of values failure: fail to get values. Cause of error: Failed to retrieve data from the database. Error in file UNKNOWN.RPT: Failed to retrieve data from the database.'

    The report is running on a Oracle database using CR-Viewer XI Product version 12.01.1.r228_v20071114
    I know there is a problem with dynamic parameters and citrix, but this is not run on citrix.
    Please help anypne
    Edited by: tstegen on Sep 30, 2009 2:48 PM

    Is this report based or Enterprise based LOV?
    If you have report published to BOEnterprise, then it automatically creates a chain of objects for any dynamic parameter:
    Data Connection,
    Data Foundation,
    Business View,
    Business Element
    and LOV.
    Each of this objects have configurations like users rights, permissions and some have logon configuration. Failing any of those elements may cause LOV to fail.
    One of the tests you may try is to test relevant Business View by connecting Crystal reports to it.
    Are you familiar with Business View Manager?

  • Failed to retrieve data from the database error message

    Hello,
    I have a fairly simple report that correctly retrieves the data from the database providing that there are no selection formula.
    However, as soon as I add the record selection formula:
    {fireService.serviceDate} >= DateTime (2009, 10, 3, 0 ,0 ,0)
    I get the following errors:
    Failed to retrieve data from the database
    Cannot determine the queries necessary to get data for this report. Details: An invalid range operator has been encountered.
    However, when I use the Database / Show SQL Query option and copy the query directly into the sql query analyser it works perfectly.
    Any ideas?

    I am using a table to select the records from.
    In fact it is a series of joined tables.
    The SQL Query generated is:
    SELECT "fire"."unitNumber", "configLocation"."location", "configFireEquipmentType"."type", "configFireEquipmentSize"."size", "configFireEquipmentRating"."rating", "fire"."yearManufactured", "fire"."LPT", "configFireServiceLevel"."Level", "configTest"."test", "fireService"."serviceRepairs", "customer"."name", "customer"."customerGUID", "customer"."address1", "customer"."address2", "fireService"."serviceDate", "fireService"."comment"

    WHERE  "fireService"."serviceDate">={ts '2009-10-03 00:00:00'}
    ORDER BY "customer"."name", "customer"."customerGUID"
    It looks complext but is not.  Most of these joins reference lookup tables.

  • Failed to retrieve data from the database. [Database Vendor Code: 116]

    My report is using Java Bean class as datasource and the Java Bean class calls a report-specific Java program to return a result set.
    Report fails to generate and the error message is
    Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details:  [Database Vendor Code: 116 ]
    Can anyone tell me what error code 116 means?
    Thanks.

    The problem is solved internally. Our team implemented a result set data structure that incorrectly converts a Double into a String before passing it to Crystal Report for rendering. Data Vendor Code I met yesterday was the outcome of illegal class conversion.
    I have a side question;  our development team would like to use log4j to log method calls invoked during rendering. Our problem could be solved earlier if we knew getString() was invoked instead of getDouble() during rendering.  We thought of specifying the full path of log4j jar file in CRConfig.xml but we don't know how to configure CR to write logging information into a specific file location.
    Please help.
    Thanks
