BO 4.0 - Database error: Unable to connect to SAP BW Incomplete logon data

Hello Experts,
I have enabled a 'SSO to database' between SAP BW and Business objects by referencing to the documents related to below link.
[http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/HowtosetupSSOagainstSAPBWinSBOBI4.0forLDAPusers]
I have created a universe connection with option 'use single sign on when refreshing reports at view time' and have created a universe on top of my BEx query by log-in to the universe designer tools using my LDAP account.
Now when I run the report with either SAP account or LDAP - I am able to run a adhoc webi report on this universe and get data either through the webi rich client or via BO 4.0 Info-view/Launch Pad.
But the issue is that when other users are trying to run webi queries on this universe either through Info-view/launch pad or rich client by log-in via LDAP Authentication - they get the below error: I have given SAP_ALL to this user for time being and also have done the necessary configuration for 'simple user format' in CMC so these user has 1 account with 3 alias definitions: Enterprise, SAP, R/3.
Database error: Unable to connect to SAP BW server Incomplete logon data -
If the user logs on into the BO 4.0 Info-view/launch pad or webi rich client using his SAP authentication than he is able to run and retrieve data.
I also get a dump in the SAP BW system - I analyzed the dump in SAP BW using st22 tcode and it gives the error short text as - Incomplete logon data and run-time error - CALL_FUNCTION_SIGNON_INCOMPL
Desired outcome:
I want the users to log-in to webi rich client or BO 4.0 Launch pad/Info-view using their 'LDAP' authentication and run reports against the universe on SAP BW/BEx query without any errors or additional username/password requirements.
Can someone please tell me if I am missing any steps/configuration and guide me to achieve the above mentioned desired result ?
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
CD.

Hi Simone,
Thank you for the reply.
Here are the things done by me.
1. Generated the keystore file and imported it in BI 4.0 CMC on SAP Authentication Option tab
    ([http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/GeneratekeystoreandcertificateforSAPBO+BI4.0])
    ([http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/SetupofSAPSSOServiceinSAPBOBI4.0+CMC])
2. Generate the certificate file cert.der and this cert is imported in SAP BW with STRUSTSSO2 transaction.
    ([http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/ImportSAPBOBI4.0certificateintoSAP+BW])
3. BW Roles/Users have been imported into CMC.
4. SAP Users and LDAP users are mapped/aliased with each other using the registry key method
    ([http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/HowtomapSAPusersandLDAPusersinSBOBI4.0+CMC])
I haven't explicitly configured STS (Security token service) as STS is a part of Adaptive processing server (APS) and I have verified that by going to servers in CMC and then to analysis services.
I have searched for SAP OSS notes related to my issue but couldn't find any note related to SAP BW SSO with Business objects 4.0. Most of the notes are relevant for BO XI 3.1 environments.
Thanks & regards,
CD.

Whether your problem is solved?
We have the same problem in BO Mobile.
Two users from one BW-role, BO-groups; one user report is executed, another user - error incomplete logon data. In Web Intelligence both users reports succeeds.

Error " Could not connect to SAP R/3 system"

HI:
We have been having some problems with our portal lately and most recently the error that we get is "Could not Connect to SAP R/3 "
The system landscape settings have not been changed.
Thanks for your responses.
Rachel

When I log into the portal and launch the MSS iviews I get the error ( Could not Connect to SAP R/3).
Similarly when I launch ESS I get the following error:
I see that it is lost connection with our SAP R/3 HR system. And system parameters that are available now
are just SAP BW, SEM and CRM..
So looks like we need to re-establish the connection..(?)

XL Reporter error Unable to Connect to SAP Business One DI API

Hi Experts,
Im getting this error on one of our clients' workstations.
They have SAPB1 2005A PL 31.
We've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the DIAPI and the whole client application as well. Same error.
It als gives an error after the initial error that says:
"Security Settings in Microsoft Excel prohibit XL Reporter from running."
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

hi jairus,
To fix this XLR error 'unable to connect to SAP Business One DI API', do the following:
1. Go to control panel and uninstall SAP DI API
2. Run %temp%
3. Rename the folder SM_OBS_DLL
4. Go to the patch level package of the patch level you are using and install DI API. If you get a message that the installation already exists, ignore the message and proceed to install DI API.
XLR should work properly.
Best Regards,
David

Error :Could not connect to SAP systemSAP_R3_PLM

Hi,
I have uploaded the Business Package for projects into portal and assigned the iviews to a user(test_abc)...when iam trying to view the iviews by logging in to "test_abc" iam getting the following error:
<b>Could not connect to SAP systemSAP_R3_PLM</b>
Our Portal is only connected to SAP BW system...Not R/3..
Could any one please tell me whether we need to coonect to R/3 system to use this business packages?
also there are some iviews like "BW reports","Select a BW report" etc....
to use the above iviews do we require an R/3 system or Bw system....what is the data source for this iviews.?..iam confused ....Could some one help me on this issue?
Regards,
P.Navakanth

The primary backend system for this package is indeed an 'R/3' system. Other systems it used (depending on which iViews you wish to use) are BW and CRM. For exact versions of these systems which are supported please follow the link below:

DataIntegrator XI R2 couldn't get connection to SAP R/3

Specification:
- Data Integrator XI R2, SAP R/3 4.6C
Problem :
- I'm trying to connect data integrator R2 with SAP R/3 4.6c , and it doesn't work well unfortunately.
When I tried to connect DI with R3(QAS), it works well. but, when I tried to connect DI with R3(PRD), it doesn't work.
Looks like it doesn't work in case R/3 was composed of message servers.
In R3(QAS: Test System), there are only one AS(Application server).
In R3(PRD: Production System), there are 4 AS(Application server) and one of them has a role of messaging service(for Load balancing).
Any advices will help.
Best regards
Kyung woo.

Unfortunately BODI is not really sophisticated when it comes down to error reporting in connecting to SAP R/3. The generic error message can mean anything. I assume you got that error message and not a slightly more specific one referring to i.e. cannot access certain rfc functions etc.
I also assume that you could not connect to the SAP system, that the ABAP is not send or triggered and that you did not get back a job number.
You need to check:
SAP BODI account locked / invalid password
That you can reach the SAP server
That you logon to the right SAP logon group. DI lets then the R/3 system handle the load balancing between the application server. I think you can check this by filling in a target host in the SAP R/3 datastore so that DI goes to one application server. Assuming your SAP system does allow this.

When I am craeting connection with specific user id and Password it works fine.
Pls. let me know whats the problem with creating connection with SSO.

Yes, I have installed Integration Kit, and configured the SSO.
I am able to login into designer with Authentication as SAP.
But, the Problem is with connection creation with SSo authentication mode.
Is there any property or role needs to be defined for the universe designer Group or user, so that SSO is allowed in authentication mode?

Live Office Error when connecting to SAP BW data (Offline dashboard)

Hi experts,
we have built up an Live Office connection to SAP BW query data to create a dashboards, which can show the data also in offlne mode. We are using exactly the same procedure as recommanded by Ingo Hilgofort in [End-to-End Scenarios With Xcelsius 2008|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/90ad73b1-506c-2b10-9e9b-9fde523f010a].
When trying to refresh the Live Office connection using the "Refresh" button in the dashboard we receive the error LO 26301: The current refresh option requires a report instance that does not exist.
The recommended action is: Change the refresh option of the object or use the CMC to schedule a new instance.
But creating an instance of the dashboard is not possible. What is meant by that? Is it necessary that we embed the Xcelsius flash into a PDF or a Crystal Report? What are our alternatives?
Best regards,
Sebastian

Authentication error when creating EPM Add-in connection with SAP BO Enterprise connection type

Hello, Experts,
I have a problem with creation of EPM Add-in connection when SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise connection type is selected.
An error message is "Error while communicating with the server. Framework message: Authorization failed."
Here are the steps that were implemented and how this issue was reproduced:
SAP BusinessObjects Planning and Consolidation 10.0 SP12 for Microsoft was installed and configured.
Integration between SAP BPC and SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.1 SP02 was implemented. SAP BO users can successfully connect to SAP BPC system.
EPM connector was successfully installed and deployed in SAP BusinessObjects BI server.
BPC ODBO 2.0 SP04 64BIT was installed in SAP BusinessObjects server.
EPM connection was successfully created in SAP BusinessObjects CMC.
EPM Add-in and BPC ODBO 2.0 SP04 32BIT was installed in another computer (let's call it CLIENT) which has MS Office 2007 32BIT installed.
From CLIENT computer we have launched Excel manually and successfully created BPC connection with Connection Type - Local.
Then we have logged into BI Launch Pad and launched New / EPM document (Excel). Excel has started.
In EPM Add-in we have pressed Logon.
In connection window selected SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise connection type.
An error "Error while communicating with the server. Framework message: Authorization failed." appears.
Before this error appears we are not getting any window where we could select EPM connection (created in CMC) nor the possibility to enter username or password.
Looking forward you valuable comments and suggestions.
Thank you in advance.
Donatas Budrys

Dear, Roberto,
Our user has Full Access to all BPC tasks and it is administrator in BI system.
Also we can successfully connect with the same user using Connection type "Local".
We had done some investigation and in the BPC SQL Server trace log we can catch the following message when an error occurs:
==============[System Error Tracing]==============
[System Name] : BPCXMLAService [Message Type] : ErrorMessage [Job Name] : ValidateUser [DateTime] : 04/23/2014 10:58:06 [UserId] : [Exception] DetailMsg : {System.Exception: Invalid user at SAP.BPC.Services.Webservice.XMLAService.XMLAService.ValidateUser()} ==============[System Error Tracing End ]==============
It is very interesting that after the EPM workbook is launched via BI Launch Pad till an error occurs we are NOT provided with possibility to enter any username and password. So the EPM add-in should use the same user which was logged into BI Launch Pad - in our case the user with administrative rights both in BI Launch Pad and BPC systems. Am I missing anything?
Looking forward your feedback.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Donatas

Edited by: vemontoya on Feb 6, 2012 5:48 PM

Hi,
Unfortunately the status - "System waiting for something" is very vague. There could be a lot of things that you might have to look into.
1. Are you able to log into the ECC system? If yes, you may want to activate the webgui related services. If you are running it for the first time, you might have to run the program - SIAC_PUBLISH_ALL_INTERNAL
2. you may also want to look at the user with which you log in - does the user have authorization to run the transaction.
3. Check your system object properties if all the system properties - client, port etc. are specified correctly.
In short, there could be a lot of possibilities of what the problem could be, although the real problem may be really small. If you can post something more specific, I will be able to help you.
Hope this helps
