I know above error due to cryptotools error, I added below script into instancecofnig.xml for SSO enable.
I am confusing here we need to added one more time below script in instanceconfig.xml for Scheduler purpose.
<CredentialStore>
<CredentialStorage type="file" path="/u01/xxx/obiee10/OracleBIData/web/config/credentialstore.xml";; passphrase="admin@1234" />

Hi Deepak,
Thanks for quick response,
I have added in instanceconfig.xml file , I run the cryptotools but no luck but same error throwing.
I have doubt here SSO working perfect but ibots not working, While save ibots its throwing error.
I added to above script in instanceconfig for SSO again we need to add one more time for Scheduler.
Please suggest me.
Thanks

    Hi Vamsi.
    The exactly erro refers to a problems when you try upgrade from these version to 11.5.10.
    Can you read this note and apply solution? The note refers a patch, but the problem is the same.
    After Patch 4334965, adstrtal.sh & adstpall.sh is failing with errors [ID 360046.1]

  • OBIEE report filter and delivery ibots

    Hi All,
    One of my reports (with 20 cols) consists of multiple rows with repeated customer names (about 100 distinct customer names and approx total 5000 rows). We wanted to automatically filter out the report on customer names and send the filtered reports to the respective customers. So these 100 customers will receive their own 50 rows. We were wondering how we should go about doing this. We thought of maybe using a) iBots or b) GO URL with dummy dashboard. I was wondering if anyone has experience tackling this issue and what will be the high level design steps that will be required.
    Thanks.
    ~Shiv

    You must filter the data directly in the RPD.
    1)
    Create a session variable that contains the name (or ID or whatever) of the customer.
    If the name of the customer is the login he will use to connect to OBIEE, you can use :USER.
    Example 1 : suppose you have a table that contains list of customer with their name and their login.
    Select name from customer where login = ':USER'
    That is your initialization block that will populate your "customerVAR" session variable.
    Example 2 : you don't have such a table, but customer name = customer obiee login
    go directly to point 2
    2)
    Filter the table with this variable.
    Example 1 :
    +"table.customer = valueof(NQ_SESSION.customerVAR)"+
    Example 2 :
    +"table.customer = ':USER'+
    3)
    As a result, when a customer will connect to OBIEE and display the report, the data will be filtered. He will see only data that he's authorized to see.
    When you will create your iBot, this filter will be used depending on the destinary (= the customer).

  • OBI EE Delivers - iBot running..never ends

    Hi all,
    I installed OBI EE and followed all of the instructions to set up Scheduler, Job Manager and so on.
    I was able to submit an iBOT "immediately", setting as destination DASHBOARD,
    but in Job Manager the submitted iBOT remains "running" forever,
    therefore the "Alerts" link never appears in the dashboard.
    I also looked at the database sessions, but I cannot see any active session related to the iBOT.
    I even gave DBA privilege to the S_NQ_SCHED database user,
    but it seems to be useless.
    I also started the Oracle Job Scheduler service (my pc o.s. is Windows XP)
    but it does not help.
    Any clue ?
    Thank you,
    Silvio

    As I Stated earlier - (Turribeach)
    -- --- From Earlier post -------
    I look at 'My Account' for my Dummy obi ee user and I see 3 System Emails listed.
    But when I view them they all have the same email address.
    But in the SA_SYSTEM_USER table I have 3 completely different email address/records.
    Again, I will state, in the SA_SYSTEMS Table I have 3 completely different emails!!!
    This was my insert statement:
    INSERT INTO S_NQ_SCHED.SA_SYSTEM_USER (EMAIL, GROUP_NAME, LOGON_NAME, DISPLAY_NAME)
    VALUES ('[email protected]','Dovico Group2','DOVICO_GROUP2','User Name3');
    INSERT INTO S_NQ_SCHED.SA_SYSTEM_USER (EMAIL, GROUP_NAME, LOGON_NAME, DISPLAY_NAME)
    VALUES ('[email protected]','Dovico Group2','DOVICO_GROUP2','User Name1');
    INSERT INTO S_NQ_SCHED.SA_SYSTEM_USER (EMAIL, GROUP_NAME, LOGON_NAME, DISPLAY_NAME)
    VALUES ('[email protected]','Dovico Group2','DOVICO_GROUP2','User Name2');
    To my understanding, and this is what I would like assistance with. Is if I have 3 DIFFERENT emails address in the SA SYSTEM table, shouldn't the 3 different emails be listed in the DOVICO_GROUP2's "My Account" ?
    Instead, I get 3 emails listed, but when I view them they are the same one.
    Again, assistance would be appreciated.

  • One ibot for multiple reports (or all reports in one topic/folder)

    Hello,
    Is it possbile to set the ibot for report caching to consider a whole bunch of reports rather than setting
    up one ibot for every single report?
    Regards,
    metalray

    Hello ADB,
    Thanks for that. I wonder how to prove that the caching worked or that is has been done.
    I noticed the .TBL files in the cache directory but that does not tell me much. Using OBI Administration and looking at the cache on the physical layer
    did not help me either understand how all reports in my dashboard are now cached by running the ibot at midnight.
    Out of the BI Answers, Delivers and Dashboards manual:
    "NOTE: The Oracle BI Server maintains its own cache. This cache is separate from the Oracle BI
    Presentation Services cache.
    When you select a specific dashboard or request, Oracle BI Presentation Services checks its cache
    to determine if the identical results have recently been requested. If so, Oracle BI Presentation
    Services returns the most recent results, thereby avoiding unnecessary processing by the Oracle BI
    Server and the back-end database. If not, the request is issued to the Oracle BI Server for
    processing."
    So basically I want to know how I can see that BI Presentations Services has
    really cached the reports in my dashboard i.e. if my ibot works
    Thanks,
    metalray

  • Format of CSV file generated through iBot

    What is the default format of csv file generated through iBot (UNICODE / UTF) ?
    How can we configure a single iBot to generate CSVs, for example, in UTF format instead of UNICODE (assuming UNICODE is default).
    -Jimit

    https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/ui/km/SearchDocDisplay.jspx?_afrLoop=324436281886916&type=DOCUMENT&id=1459947.1&displayIndex=1&_afrWindowMode=0&_adf.ctrl-state=130oxyc5cv_71
    Content:
    Goal
    Currently the CSV format in Agents always delivers the report results in tab delimited CSV. Is there a setting that can make the report result in a comma delimited CSV format when the reports are setup via Agents/iBots?
    Fix
    There is no setting that would make CSV output from an iBot be comma delimited as opposed to the tab delimited output from the web UI.
    There is an enhancement request for this functionality. for more information, see bug 13802667 - COMMA DELIMITED CSV FORMAT FOR AGENTS/IBOTS has been logged to include this feature in future release.
    As a work-around, you can to run a custom script from an Agent to convert tabs to commas. See chapter 4 (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e18562/schedjobscripts.htm#BABGFBBD) of Oracle® Fusion Middleware Scheduling Jobs Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) Part Number E18562-01 for more information on writing custom scripts.

    Hi Deepak,
    Thanks For replying.
    Connection poolsetting are following in Job Manager & RPD:-
    Connection Pool Setting in Job Manager :-
    Database Type: Oracle 10g R2
    Call Interface :- Default(OCI 10g R1/R2)
    DSN : ORCL
    Usrname: SH , Pwd : SH
    Timeout : 60 , Max Connection: 5

    DSN : ORCL
    Usrname: SH , Pwd : SH
    Timeout : 5 min , Max Connection: 10
    Is this issue because of user id (Administrator) that I have provided in Scheduler, general tab? can we provide same user id /pwd (Administrator/Administrator)tht we use for our RPD?
    Or do I need to create another user with Admin priviledges?
    Please suggest!!

    Userid and password that we use to connect to the SMTP server - in short ex- Microsoft Outlook
    You may check this with your admin - if uid and pwd is really required to connect to your smtp - if not then like i said earlier- just follow the 2nd step from that blog.
    Whenever you do a change in em - restart the BI services and test.

  • Regarding ibots in obiee 11g

    Hi All,
    i have got one requirement from client.
    he wants the report in mail. for that i configured ibots.
    but they want conditional ibot .
    i have seen it but not able to understand since they want condition on the value of rows not on count of rows.
    please help me how to create it.
    Thankx
    Manoj

    Hi,
    First about the functionality of the conditional request: On the conditional request tab of the iBot you can read:
    Select a request which will trigger the current iBot. This request may be refined further by creating subquery filters. The iBot is considered triggered if the conditional request returns one or more rows
    This means that the delivery content of the iBot will only be sent when the conditional request returns one or more rows.
    Ex:-
    scheduling the iBot: you can set the recurrence of the iBot to Monthly. This means that every month the iBot will be run.
    So, what if you use a conditional request in your Monthly iBot? Every month it will first run the conditional request, when this conditional request will return rows, the iBot will be triggered and will sent the delivery content of the iBot, otherwise the delivery content won't be sent.
    To make it more clear: this doesn't mean that once the conditional request is met, the iBot will be run monthly forever, but every month the results of the conditional request will be checked.
    Hope it help's
    Thanks,
    Satya
