Get client ip in web reports 9i

Hi
we are using oracle 9i reports.
we want to get client's ip address when running web reports.
We are having forms which gets the ip address using
webutil but the same functionality is not available
in web reports.
How can this we get the client's ip address
when using web reports?

Hi,
From WebUtil documentation:
WebUtil is primarily focused at solving the more common challenges faced by Forms developers whowish to build applications which integrate tightly with the "Client Browser" machine - the machine that the end user is actually sitting at.
Traditionally Forms has provided the means of integration with the machine that the Forms executable is running on, but in the Web-deployed scenario this can be remote from end users and may even be a different operating system from the systems that are being used to host the applicationâs user interface. WebUtil gives Forms developers the means to interact with the client browser machines with PL/SQL, without having to learn any new technology.
As far as I know, Oracle Reports has never provided this functionality. In fact, there hasn't been much stress on interacting with the client machine. And thus there is no direct functionality in 9i as well, to get client machine information.
If you are running your reports from Forms, you can get the client's IP address in the Form and populate it in a temporary table in the DB, from where Reports can then pick it up.

Performance issue and data getting interchanged in BO Webi report + SAP BW

Hi,
We are using SAP BW queries as the source for creating some BO reports.
Environments :
SAP - SAP BI 7.1
BO - BO XI 3.1
Issues :
The reports were working fine in Dev and Q with less data. But when we point the universes to BW prod ( where we have much data), the reports are taking quite a long time to refresh and getting timed out. This query has some key figures which are having customer exits defined to show only one month data. And also BW accelerators are updated for the infocubes pertaining to this query. The BO report is giving data if we apply a filter in 'Query Panel' of Webi to show only current month dates. But then the issue is the values are getting interchanged for many objects. For ex: there are 2 objects- ABS version and Market region. The values are getting interchanged in the BO level.
Please let us know if anything needs to be done in BO or BW to fix this issue if anyone has faced the same
Also Please let us know if customer exits and accelerators works fine with BO
Thanks
Sivakami

Hi,
Thanks Roberto. We'll check the notes
@Ingo,
We are able to solve the performance issue by removing unused Key figures and dimensions from the query, but the column value interchange issue still persisits
The build version is - 12.3.0
Query Stripping
Where should we enable query stripping? When i went through some documentation it was written that it'll be enabled automatically from XI 3.1 Sp3. Can you please let us know if its so and what we need to do to enable it.
The coulmn interchange is happening when we use dimensions in a certain order. When product type is used along with Market region. Market region shows values of Product type also in Webi report.
Thanks & Regards,
Sivakami

Error getting,while generating the Webi report

hi,
while i am generatign the Webi report, i am getting below error.
com.jpmorgan.extraclear.reportservice.BOException: :generateReport :: Exception com.businessobjects.rebean.wi.ServerException: The number of simultaneous report jobs was limited to 10 by the system administrator. . Please try to reconnect later.[ RCIRAS0518 ]
please help me out.

I just got the same error message, but I try to open a DeskI in InfoView. This has nothing to do with the Web Intelligence Processing Server. But I had problems with the RAS (Report Application Server). A restart of the RAS didn´t help, so I restarted the BOXI-Server. Now everything is fine, but I still don´t know, what happens.
It would be great to know what the problem was.
Hope to get an answer.

How to get Query Names in webi Report ??

Hello All,
I'm trying to pull data from different data sources like accdb,Oracle,DB2,MDB,xls files . I pulled the data successfully by merging all queries.But I was stuck with getting the query names in report ...can some one guide me in this ?? I used data provider () but getting 1 query name along with my universe name.
thanks in advance,
Lavanya.

Hi Lavanya,
Are you interested to know the data sources of the queries or just the query names?
To know the Query Name, you can use DataProvider( ) function; however, in case you wish to know the data source, you can use Connection( ) function.

Getting error while refreshing the Webi report

Hi Guys,
I am getting error, while refreshing Webi reports. Error like:
A database error occured. The database error text is: Error in MDDataSetBW.GetCellData. Time limit exceeded.. (WIS 10901)
Could anyone please reply.
Regards,

Hi,
If it's not the universe limits, then I think you've hit the "MDX result contains too many cells" (more than 1million) problem.
So, I suspect a long running query, no filters/variable restrictions, and You've probably got a dump in ST22.
I don't know what BW you have, but if it is BW 7, do you have Enhancement Pack 01 and SP05<->10 ?
You should check out all the latest corrections from component BW-BEX-OT-MDX
the final proof of the pudding would be to enable MDA / SOFA log , capture the MDX SELECT statement and test it in BW MDXTEST - i bet you get the same error there.

How to get the Objects which are used in the webi Report.

Hi Expert,
I am trying to get the list of WebI reports and Objects which are present in the report at BO 4.0.
I can able to get details for only the list of reports and universes.
Could any one help me to get those details.
Regards,
Murali S

With 4.0, there is no longer a way to do this using just the .NET SDK because the ReportEngine SDK no longer exists for .NET. Instead, you'll have to look at using the RESTful Web Services SDK for Webi which runs in the Web Application Container Server on your report server (NOT on the web server!)
RESTful web services are platform-independent and don't require the installation of any SDK files. Everything is done through standard HTTP Get, Put, and Post commands and the results are returned in either XML or JSON format. You don't mention which service pack of 4.0 you're on, but the RESTful web services have evolved over the course of the 4.0 service packs, so more recent is definitely better.
You can find the documentation for this in the "Development Information" section at help.sap.com/bobip40. There is also a "space" on SCN for this at http://scn.sap.com/community/restful-sdk and there are some links on this page for various resources and sample code.

Print button on Web report.

Hi gurus,
We were trying to add a print button on Web report for printing the result area on the Web report.
We followed the steps which has given in the How-to-guide How To Web Printing with Microsoft
Excel document.
In the document it has mentioned that
1. Support package should be above 19 for BW 3.5 version
2. Add HTML code in the WAD Template
3. Import Transport file into the System.
4. Apply OSS notes 736568 and 737082 to BW
We upgraded the support package to 22, added the html code in the WAD template, imported the transport file into the BW system and applied the OSS notes as per the mentioned in the document.
The transport file contains the Package u201CZPK_WEB_PRINTING_WITH_EXCELu201D and ABAP Classes u201CZCL_RSR_XLS_GRIDu201D,
u201CZCL_RSR_XLS_HELP_WINDOW_PRINTu201D,
u201CZCL_RSR_XLS_ITEM_CONDITIONu201D,
u201CZCL_RSR_XLS_ITEM_EXCEPTIONu201D,
u201CZCL_RSR_XLS_ITEM_GRIDu201D,
u201CZCL_RSR_XLS_ITEM_TEMPLATEu201D,
u201CZCL_RSR_XLS_ITEM_TEXT_ELEMENTSu201D,
u201CZCL_RSR_XLS_TABLEu201D
After import the transport file into BW, some of the objects in the ABAP Classes were not activated. I was trying to activate manually but those were not activating.
Please guide me how to resolve the above issue or is there any way to get the printing the web report?
Thanks in advance.
Venkata.

Hi
If you want to print the web page directly then you can define a button using Java script and you can do it.

WebI report in Rich Client refreshing - But not in the webbased WebI client

Dear experts,
I am quite new to BO and I am currently facing the following problem regarding our WebI reports:
I created a WebI report in the WebI Rich Client. This report accesses an OLAP universe, which in turn gets data from a SAP BW through a BI query. I also exported the report to the CMS. In InfoView, it is displayed correctly as well. The report displays the data alright.
Now here comes the strange part of it: When refreshing the report from within the WebI Rich Client, the data is being updated (the current BW data is being shown) as it is supposed to. BUT when refreshing the report from within the WebI Java client (in InfoView), the report would not update, i.e. it would not display the current BW data but instead the old data. When scheduling instance creation the instances would also not display the current data.
We are am running BO XI 3.1, no FixPacks.
Does anybody have a clue why this is happening?
Any hint would be appreciated.
Many thanks in advance!
Best,
Kai

Hi Ingo,
Many thanks for your reply!
The report would not refresh after I hit "Refresh data" ("Daten regenerieren" in German). Plus the newly created instances (one instance is being created every 5 mins) would also not show the current data.
The funny thing is that as soon as I go back to the Rich Client and hit "Refresh data" in the Rich Client, the report would always show the current data, never the old ones.
We should probably continue discussing in just one thread (Scheduled WebI report instances with differing values), this issue seems to be interrelated somehow anyway. Sorry for opening up multiple threads.
Thanks and best regards,
Kai

How to get the Empty page in Webi report

Hi,
I have to insert the charts in the report but i don't have the space to insert the charts in same page so i need one more page how to get the blank page in report
thanks,

turn your report from Page Layout to Draft Mode. Than you will be able to insert chart in it.
You can view Web Intelligence reports in different modes depending on how you want to work with data and how you want the data to appear.
1. In Web Intelligence Interactive, select the report tab of the report you want to view.
2. Click the arrow next to the View button on the main toolbar above the report.
3. Select the viewing mode.
4. In the Java Report Panel or Web Intelligence Rich Client, use Switch Page/Quick Display on the Reporting toolbar to alternate between Page mode and Quick Display mode.

Getting error while schedule a webi report

Hi All,
I am getting error "A database error occured. The database error text is: The supplied XML is not valid. [Measures].[4KO5AOUTL3ZKE55WDDOMUB0AI]. (WIS 10901) " while scheduling a Webi report.
Could anyone help me regarding the error?
Regards

Hi Manoj,
Go to the controls tab in parameters in universe designer and there increase the "Limit size of result set to" and "limit execution time to".
Also in webi go to the edit query and increase the "maximum rows retrived" and "maximu retrievel time".
I think this should avoid partial results.
Thanks,
Neeraj

Values not getting refreshed in web report.

Hello Friends,
Currently i am running an web report. The scenerio is i have check box with 5 options For Ex: IMS , IMR, IMN,IMM,IMP.
IMS is the combination of all divisions and IMR is the combination of only three divisions.
In BEx we runthe report with divisions . For ex : divisions are Ind1, ind2,ind3,ind4,ind 5.
Instead of displaying divisions in the select options like Ind1,ind2....etc., we have created a structure in the report
and using new selection we have restricted the divisions with IMS,IMN,etc.,
IMS->combination of all divisions. IMR is combination of ind1,ind2,ind3.
IMN... all are with single divisions
Now we have assigned the query in the data provider for select options in hte web report,
But when we select any options the values of the remaining queries are not getting refreshed.
If we use the divisons directly with out using the structures the values are getting refreshed.
Can any one give me the solutions for this?
Regards
Srinivas

Hi Mansi,
Check the Prompt properties in the Edit Query window of the webI. In the query filters section of window, click on the blue icon which says Prompt Properties. Deselect Keep Last values select and run the webI again.
If the solution is not related to your question, please provide more details.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Different display on client report builder and web reports

Hi all, I have build a report in report 6i version Report Builder 6.0.8.13.1.And I set the page to 8.5*11 ,and it runs well in the client ,but when I put it on the UNIX SERVER,and run it from web URL,It displayed different from the client report builder.The web report is "smaller" than the client report ,but the font size is as same as the client .
My HPUX is 11x,and display the Chinese report .
Any body know why ?give me some advice ,thank u very much.

Hi
If you had built the report definition on Windows and then moved this to Unix server, you may find different fonts in use. This is becuase your Unix setup does not have the same fonts install. At design time, You need to use fonts which are available on Unix also. The same fonts shaould also be installed for printer in Unix i.e. the AFM/PFM font files should be kept under $ORACLE_HOME/guicommonX/tkXX/admin/AFM or PFM directory. This would give you the same output and would lessen the porting affect.
Thanks

Getting error when refreshing the WebI report

Hi,
I am building WebI reports using a universe which is constructed over a BI cube.
Initially I am building the report and uploading it into CMS.
When I am importing the report from CMS and refreshing it, I am getting an error
"A database error has occured. The database error text is: A runtime exception has occured. (Lisence key check failed, Check that you are lisenced to access SAP data sources). (WIS 10901)".
What could be the reason for this kind of behaviour?
The version of BO is 3.1.

Hi,
Your answer was really helpful, and it worked upto some extent. I have updated the lisence key and the following error is no longer coming.
"(Lisence key check failed, Check that you are lisenced to access SAP data sources). (WIS 10901)".
But now I have a new error popping up when ever I import a report from CMS and refreshing it.
The error is "A database error occured. The database text is: The supplied XML is not valid.[SYMTNKEY].[LEVEL 01]. (WIS 10901)."
