  • Error while installing a patch for Mainwin 5.0.2 on Solaris 2.8

    Hi,
    I am relatively new in this field, so i apologise for any slip-ups.
    We use a Solaris 2.8-SPARC server. I was given an external drive which contained the porting software Visual Mainwin 5.0.2 and was told to install it from the drive. On checking it, i found that the entire folder structure of the software was damaged, i.e. every file of the software was changed to uppercase. UNIX being highly case-sensitive, i manually changed each and every file present in the software directory to lowercase and then ran it.
    The software ran fine, it got installed and the license server was also up. the licenses were also nicely distributed. everything was fine until i was asked to install the patch 'vmw502_sunos5_HF1.sh'. While installing i got the following output :
    # sh vmw502_sunos5_HF*
    Extracting installation package to "/tmp/mwspselfextr27624".
    Please stand by ... Done.

    Visual MainWin Patch Installation
    HF1 for VMW 5.0.2 <sunos5> 24-Jul-2003.14:01 Cycle115
    =====================================================================
    ***Error: cannot find file
    /export/home/tools/solaris/env/mainsoft/../mwver/mwversion.ini
    Something wrong with your Visual MainWin installation - aborting
    when i checked the installation directory, i found that the file 'mwversion.ini' was present inside the directory 'mwver'. I cant see any reason why the patch is not recognizing the file.
    Can anybody help?? Any kind of help will really be appreciated.
    -SD

    Hope you already tried: ls -l /export/home/tools/solaris/env/mainsoft/../mwver/mwversion.ini If ls returns the file name, try running the script under truss to find some clues.
    % truss -f -vall -rall -wall -o /tmp/mwpatch.log sh vmw502_sunos5_HF*

  • Unable to Install OBIEE on Windows 2008 Server R2

    I am Unable to Install OBIEE on Windows 2008 Server R2. It is giving the error
    Oracle Business Intelligence is not supported on this Windows version. Oracle Business Intelligence is only supported on Windows XP x86, Windows 2003 x86, Windows 2003 AMD64, Windows 2003 EM64T, Windows Vista x86, Windows Vista AMD64, Windows Vista EM64T, and Windows 2000 x86.
    But is there any patch to install the OBIEE on Windows 2008 Server R2

    Hi Sk
    I think it might be due to compatible issue.So check the properties of the install.exe file and change the compatability to windowsxp or windows 2003 ,then try to install .I think its going to work.Because i installed OBIEE10.1.3.4 on windows server 2008.

  • Installation and deployment of operating system, applications and patches in Unix environment

    Is it possible to use Configuration Manager 2012 (or 2012 R2) to perform remote installation of operating system, applications and patching in a Unix environment?
    Balaji Kundalam

    ConfigMgr does not support Operating System Deployment for non-Windows OS flavors.
    You can use the ConfigMgr client on a Unix device to install applications and to instruct the device to install patches. Basically, the client will download files and run a script against them.  If there is a patch manager in your flavor of *nix, you
    can run a script to install the patches.
    See the supported operating systems here:

  • Install Data Services on UNIX Solaris

    Hi all,
    I`m trying to install Data services on Unix solaris and when I write ' ./install.sh' on command line it show this:

    sybase@opensolaris: /tmp/Data_services
    Any idea whit this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Eduardo,
    if its not in there its not supported.
    I made the experience that it somethimes work installing a BO product on a not supported UNIX OS. But that was mainly BOE not DS.
    Maybe you can install DS on open Solaris but you wont get support for it.
    If you really need to know when or if open solaris is supported than i would suggest you raise a Support MEssage at SAP.
    Regards

  • Uninstall an OBIEE patch

    Dear All,
    We have migrated from the OBIEE 10.1.3.2 to 10.1.3.4 by applying a patch. Unfortunately we are encountering numerous critical bugs.
    I would like to know how can we unpatch/uninstall the patch and get back to the v10.1.3.2.
    I am not familar with this area, all precise idea would be appreciate are welcome. What is a war file ?
    Thank you for your answers.

    Normally, it must be written in the installation instruction.
    Of you can go back from a backup.
    Of you can simply try to install the last version of OBIEE and transfer the configuration files and the metadata (ie the webcatalog and repository).
    You can also ask a little support on the Oracle Support Website : http://support.oracle.com
    A war file means Web application ARchive (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAR_%28Sun_file_format%29). It's an archive file that you use frequently when you want to deploy an application in an java application server.
    Here an example where I describe how to create a war file with OBIEE when you have to apply a patch
    http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/patch
    Redeploy means a little bit installation.
    Success

  • Installing OBIEE on AIX

    Hi
    Does any one in the group installed OBIEE on AIX environment.
    We need some serious help from you as we are facing so many issues while installing OBI on AIX.
    I got an idea that 1st we need to install it on Windows and then Unix box, and need to copy some files from Windows to Unix.
    Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi user616133,
    Your request for help is a bit vague so I am guessing at possible issues...
    The BI Server is installed on Unix without windows using the Oracle Installer. (Unless you're downloading files from technet in Windows, then you'll ftp across)
    The Admin tool is in Windows so you need to install the client tools on the machines you will be using. If you mount a samba drive, and point it to your BI directory, then you can work on your repository offline, change the config files and simply bounce your BI/Presentation servers as required.

  • OBIEE11g: How to check current environment installed/applied patches?

    Hi all,
    Does anyone know how to check current OBIEE environment installed/applied patches? I don't have the patch installs anymore and now trying to figure out how to view them. My current environment is OBIEE 11.1.1.5.

    opatch lsinventory|grep applied
    In Windows from C:\OFM\Oracle_BI1\OPatch
    Use this command
    opatch lsinventory applied

  • Error in installing OBIEE

    Hi,
    I am installing OBIEE on my system and getting an error saying framedyn.dll was not found.
    After which it is saying that OBIEE is not supported with my current Windows version.
    But I checked my Windows version of XP is uptodate.
    Can you please help me to install OBIEE with above problem description.
    Please let me know if any further clearification regarding my problem is required.
    Thanks
    Shashank

    Hi Shashank,
    Have you checked if framedyn.dll is missing in your system (the file should be under Windows/system32)? If so, you can download the file and try again. Also, not sure what version of OBIEE you're trying to install. If not the latest one (10.1.3.4.1) you can download it from OTN and try with it. Also {thread:id=966344} might be helpful for you.

    Method:1
    While installing obiee11g keep it OPMN service type as "Manual" then install and confure it should work.
    Method:2
    Some installation issues can be caused by this known issue with your Windows configuration. Please review the OBI EE 11g Release Notes document : -
