Excel Services, connection to remote DB fails.

Hi got this error message (below) when I try to refresh a excel powerpivot document with a Connection to a remote database (not SharePoint). I have configured an unattended account, and we run this workbook with an SQL-account with db-reader permissions
to the database. If we run the workbook directly from Excel it works excellent. I followed all guides on TechNet etc, but can get this to work.
An error occurred while working on the Data Model in the workbook. Please try again.
We were unable to refresh one or more data connections in this workbook.
The following connections failed to refresh:
SqlServer jon-int-sql01 testdb

Also get this in the event Viewer:
OLE DB or ODBC error: Login failed for user 'sp2013'.; 28000.
But I can login remotely from the SharePoint server with sql management studio, so my credentials are correct.

Elom Java Console "Connect to remote host Fail"

Hi,
I'm accessing an elom over the https interface, which works fine, however when trying to launch the Java console, the app starts but a dialogue box appears stating "Connect to remote host Fail!", and quits when I click ok. I'm using:
Kubuntu 9.10
Firefox 3.5.5
Java 1.6.0_15
Elom firmware version 2.70
I've also tried running against JRE 1.5, and tried saving the jnlp file and running that directly from javaws, all attempts produce the same result. I am able to connect to port 8890 from my machine. An strace seems to suggest that it sends and receives from port 8890 but then gets a Connection reset by peer.
Furthermore I've also tried running it through localhost using an ssh tunnel to the elom, again, same result.
I've now run out of ideas of what could be causing this issue, any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA
Regards
Craig

SOLVED
FYI, I downloaded the debian package of libstdc++5 from http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gcc-3.3/libstdc++5_3.3.6-18_i386.deb
After installing that on Kubuntu, the console works fine.

Excel Services Connectivity on Sharepoint 2013 for external user

Currently , external user is able to refresh the data on sharepoint site through browser. the data connection is pointing the one of the external data source. But how can an external user (Internet user which accessing sharepoint through internet) download
a copy of excel in sharepoint library and open the excel workbook with data refresh ability at client machine ?
Do we need client machine to be able to access / ping the external data source?
Thanks.

Thanks for the response.
They want to perform data analysis and design their own report with own template , for example : to remove subtotal from the powerpivot tables which we cannot change the formatting at the excel services at browser level.
So if i understand correctly, we need to get the client machine to be able to access to the database server directly to get the access to the cube for data analysis although we had this odc file connection setup, am i right?
For internal user, network team should open port / access for them to access database server directly.
For external user, either to open public access to the database server directly or setup a VPN connection for the external user to access the database server in their secure network.
Let me know if i understand this correctly.
Thanks.

Connection to remote database failed

I have configured the cman.ora file and changed the connection
string for the java applet, but I encountered the error
"The NT Adapter could not establish the connection" when I tried
to connect to remote database from JDev2.0(beta).
Any ideas of what are the possible causes for this?
At the cman.ora file, the setting are:
cman = (ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=<web_host_ip>)(PORT=1610))
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=<db_host_ip>)(PORT=1521))

(LOG_LEVEL=1)
(TRACING=yes)
(RELAY_STATISTICS=yes)
(SHOW_TNS_INFO=yes)
(USE_ASYNC_CALL=yes)
(AUTHENTICATION_LEVEL=0)
At the java applet the connection statement are:
DriverManager.registerDriver (new
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
Connection conn =
DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:oracle:thin:" +
"@(description=(address_list=" +

Shared Services Connection to SQL Server Failed

Hi all
Am trying to configure an SQL Server 2005 user directory in Hyperion
Shared Services and have got to the screen where I need to type in
all of the database details (i.e. Type, Name, Server, Port, etc) and
a username/password but I keep getting the message:
Connection Failed. Not enough privileges to connect to the directory
server...
I'm trying to connect to the "hypdb" database I've set up in SQL and
have tried the username "hypuser" which is set as the database owner
and another login which I've called "SysAdmin" and has system
administrator priviliges.
Have also tried the system generated used ID "sa" but again no luck.
Am I missing a setting for these logins in SQL which is stopping
Shared Services being able to log in as them?
Also, for the "Name" box on this Shared Services window do I just
come up with my own unique name for the server or does it have to be
something that has already been defined?

Hi,
The first things to know when you connect to MS SQL SERVER is the host or ip address and the port.
If these are correct when you click on RETRIEVE DATABASE, you are able to see all database on the server you specified.
So that means connection is ok, but of course user and password may be incorrect at this level.
If no database are retrieved, that means the host or/and port are not correct.
So before click on TEST, are you able to retrieve the database with RETRIEVE DATABASE button?
Are you able to ping the remote machine (SQL SERVER) with ip address or hostname?
Are you sure about the port for the SQL Server?

Mireille

Runtime repository connects on remote system fails in connection

Hi,
I've created runtime repository and access users and target schema on linux server through owb server install. Sqlplus onnections from my window2k PC work OK for all 3 users.
I created a second runtime repository connection from my owb designer on windows2k system. When I bring up deployment manager and try to connect to the remote target through this connection, it fails with RTC-5260:failed to connect to runtime platform...,and ORA_01017:invalid username/password. Also, I notices a java thread on the remote linux server was created each time I tried the connection .
I have the connection alias under both OWB and OracleDB tnsnames. What's the problem?

JDBC connect from remote computer fails

Hi all,
I have successfully installed the XE server and I can connect over JDBC from clients running locally on the machine where the XE server is installed.
However when I try to connect from a remote computer using the same client I get an error saying: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
I can ping the machine with XE installed and all firewalls on the machines are turned off.
Any ideas on the subject of JDBC remote connect to XE server? Or is it simply that it is not supported?
Appreciate all the help I can get.
Thanks,

On my machine I have the listener bound to local interface.
Listener.ora has hostname in it, and this is the listener status:
As status shows the hostname is resolved to localhost, on this machine I am unable (with this configuration) to share the db to other machines (I do not have oracle client on my other pc, but telnet is unable to connect to port 1521).
Changing hostname to ipaddres solves.

Primary and standby cannot talk to each other currently through the listener:

Cause: During execution of a command, a database in the Data Guard broker
configuration failed to return a result.
Action: Check Data Guard broker logs for the details of the failure. Fix any
possible network problems and try the command again.
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
Cause: The listener received a request to establish a connection to a database or other service. The connect descriptor received by the listener specified a service name for a service (usually a database service) that either has not yet dynamically registered with the listener or has not been statically configured for the listener. This may be a temporary condition such as after the listener has started, but before the database instance has registered with the listener.
Action: - Wait a moment and try to connect a second time.
- Check which services are currently known by the listener by executing: lsnrctl services <listener name>
- Check that the SERVICE_NAME parameter in the connect descriptor of the net service name used specifies a service known by the listener.
- If an easy connect naming connect identifier was used, check that the service name specified is a service known by the listener.
- Check for an event in the listener.log file.

If you are getting connection refused, either the server isn't listening on the port you have specified or there is a firewall intervening.
Can you connect to the database using any other MSSQL client tools (query analyzer for instance?) If so, make sure the setting you have there are the same in sqldeveloper.

Error message when trying to sign in with iTunes: ConnectionManager::invoke::failed to find service connection url.

I recently signed out of itunes on my imac and when i tried to sign back in i get the error message: ConnectionManager::invoke::failed to find service connection url. If i try again i get another box asking if i've forgotten my password. But my password is definitely right as i just used to it make an account on this support page. Any simple ways of fixing this?

Just to test the simple things first, did you try to sign in using another credential?
If only yours fails, then is a RIM issue, otherwise is indeed your Playbook failure.

Hi Jason
I was getting the same behavior after Apple support had me delete some plist files to get Airplay going. I was also getting the following error:
the error occurred while processing a command of type 'writesettings' in the plug-in 'server vpn'
I went into ~/Library/Preferences/ and /Library/Preferences/ and deleted every plist contating the word server. I had to re-set up my server (meaning walk through some intial steps) but all of my settings were still there after that and everything started working again.
Just a thought, obviously try at your own risk but it worked for me.

Check over on the right side of the thread here under More Like This. Look for one that has a green checkmark which means it is answered. I have read of this however, I do not know how to solve it. It seems as though it is one particular carrier this happens to.
