Issue With Business Objects Installation-STW00213 The Central Management Server has failed to start.

Hi,
I am in the process of installing Business Objects XI 3.1 in one of our server. While installing I am getting the error 'The Central Management Server has failed to start. Press 'retry' to attempt to start it again or 'cancel' to skip any actions dependendent on the Central Management Server. STW00213.'
I have tried re-installing the BO, and also tried installing without giving admin password. But it doesn't work. And also I ahve tried giving the passwords of database and CMS Admin without Sepcia Characters. But it also doesn't work.
If I cancel and install the BO, Server Intelligence Agent is not available in Central Management Server.
Could anyone help on this issue?
Thanks

Hi Prakadesh,
Try these steps.
1. Stop and disable the service of current SIA. You can do it from start-->run services.msc. Double click the SIA service and change the status to disable.
2. Login into sqlplus and drop all the CMS tables.
3. Create a new SIA pointing to Oracle from the CCM.
4. Start the new SIA and check if all services come up and you are able to login into Manager servers.
If this does not work, check the event viewer for error messages.

TS3899 the connection to server has failed

I have tried deleted the email accounts registered to both my phone and ipad and reinstalling them. I've also switched off both devices by the hard reset. I've deleted all of my mail and I am still getting this 'the connection to server has failed' when i go into the mail app, and when i try to send an email it doesnt allow me either. I am not a techie - what else can i do?

Hello Madi_kay2030,
I recommend this article to help troubleshoot what might be happening.
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
The symptoms described a a bit different than what you describe but the troubleshooting is relevant.
Restart the iOS device.
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
Try an alternative Internet connection.
If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi: Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
If you're still unable to send or receive email, contact your email provider and verify the account settings are correct. You will need to gather this information (PDF).
Additional Information
Using more than one device to check the same POP email account may create a lock-out issue that is easily resolved.

Performance issue with Business Objects Java JRC API in CRXI R2 version

A report is developed using java JRC API in CR XI release 2. When I generate the report in the designer, it took less than 5 seconds to display the results in crystal report viewer inside the designer. But in the QA environment, when I generate the same report from the application, it takes almost 1 to 1.5 minutes to display the same results in PDF. I also noticed that if the dataset contains bigger volume of data, then the reports are taking even longer almost 15 to 20 minutes.
While generating the report from the application, I noticed that most of time is taken during the execution of the com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.ReportExportControl Object method as shown in following line of code
exportControl.processHttpRequest(request, response, context, null)
We thought the delay in exporting the report to PDF might be the layout of the report and data conversion to PDF for such a bigger volume of data.
Then we investigated the issue and experimented quickly to generate the same report with same result set data from the application using XML, XSL and converted the output XSL-FO to PDF using Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) implementation. The time taken to export the report to PDF is less than 6 seconds. By doing this experiment, it is proved that the issue is not with conversion of data to PDF but it is the performance problem with Business Objects Java JRC API in CR XI R2.
In this regard, I searched for the above issue in the SAP community Network Forums -> Crystal Reports and Xcelsius -> Java Development -> Crystal Reports. But I did not find any answers or solutions for this kind of issue in the forums.
Any suggestion, hint in this matter is very much appreciated.

Ted, The setReportAppServer problem is resolved. Now I could able to generate the report with hardcoded values in the SQLs in just 6 seconds where as the same report was generated in CRXI R2 in 1 minute 15 seconds as mentioned in the earlier message.
But, our exisiting application passes the parameter values to the SQLs embedded in the report. For some reason the parameters are not being passed to the report and the report displays only the labels without data.
As per the crj 12 samples codes, the code is written as shown below.
1. Created ReportClient Document
2. SetReportAppServer
3. Open the report
4. Getting DatabaseController and switching the database connection at runtime
5. Then setting the parameters as detailed below
ParameteFields parameterFieldController = reportClientDoc.getDataDefController().getParameterFieldController();
parameterFieldController.setCurrentValue("", "paramname",paramvalue);
parameterFieldController.setCurrentValue("", "paramname",paramavalue);
byteArrayInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream)reportClientDoc.getPrintOutputController().export(ReportExportFormat.PDF);
6. Streaming the report to the browser
Why the parematers are not being passed to the report? Do I need to follow the order of setting these parameters? Did I miss any line of code for setting Params using crj 12?
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

XI 3.0 Installation Problem: no central managment server running

Hi, I am totally new to BO our company just purchased the application and I have installed XI 3.0 on one of our server. I have setup the DB and the installation finished successfully. However I can't find CMS anywhere on the server. It seems like all the other XI 3.0 components are there Business view manager, central configuration manager, etc. they are all in the program list.
The only thing I didn't install is Tomcat. In Central configuration Manager ther Server Intelligence Agent is running. When I try to connect to the server in Business view Manager I receive the following error "The system servername cannot be contacted, but there is no Central Managment Server running at port 6400."
During the installation for "Web Application Server" part I checked the "other" option since I want to use IIS. I have a feeling I need to do some type of post configuration for IIS? Where do I perform this?
Our setup is:
Window Server 2003 SP2 with all the latest window updates
The latest XI 3.0 (I downloaded it from the product page)
My questions are:
1. Does XI work with IIS at all?
2. Do I need to install Tomcat and run some kind of connector to have IIS work?
3. What am I missing for my XI 3.0 it seem the core component is missing (CS)?
Edited by: Amy Williams on Sep 24, 2008 11:18 AM
Moved from Xcelsius forum to BOE Administration

Hi Allan,
In answer to your questions - XI 3.0 does not have an IIS interface right now. You will need to install a java application components in order to access the end user interface for viewing reports (InfoView), the report viewers, the web services and SDKs and the management console (CMC). The easiest way to do this is to choose the default Tomcat components in the installation and work from there.
If you left everything else as default, then you will have all the necessary application components installed to get the system up and running. It may just be that your CMS has not started for some reason. Try stopping and restarting the Server Intelligence Agent (SIA) in the Central Config Manager (CCM) - found in the Start/Programs/Business Objects group.
Once started, try clicking on the "Manage Servers" icon of the CCM (the one with a server and a check mark on it). This should allow you connect to the system and see which servers have started. IF you cannot connect, the next step would be to check the windows Event Log. See if the CMS service started OK. If it didn't the log should provide you with more information, which you can post here for further assistance.
If it did, and you still cannot connect, you may need to review your network firewall settings and/or your DEP status (see the properties panel for My Computer, choose the Advanced tab, select the Performance settings button, then the Data Execution Prevention tab).
Happy hunting.
Derek.

Issue with scheduling a quarterly report in Central Management Console

Hi there,
I'm new to BusinessObjects and am a brand new member of the forum here and this is my maiden post and I'm hoping that the community here can help with an issue I have encountered. Basically we are using BusinessObjects Exterprice XI Release 2 and had a report schedule set-up to run Every N months Where N is 3, the start date was set as the 22:30 on 31/3/2009 and the report ran as scheduled on that date, however, the report didn't subsequently run at the end of Q2. I suspect it may be due to the date being set as the 31st March and that, ft is is to run every 3 months, that it tried to roll forward to 31st June which is obviously an invalid date. Has anyone seen this issue before and can you advise on the possible reason and a workaround/solution?
Thanks in advance...

Hope you have already got know on how to add new programs to CMC. (CMC->Folders->Manage->Add->Program file->Browse and select the program)
To replace...
If you are using SAP BO XI R3.x, you can use "Import wizard" or LCM for replacing \ overwriting the existing version of any objects (Programs, Crystal, webi reports etc..,) from one environment to another (Dev-QA, QA-UAT, UAT-Prod).
If you are using SAP BI 4.x, you can use Promotion Management which is integrated within the CMC to replace or overwrite the existing version of any objects from one environemnt to another.
To know more about using Import Wizard - http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-20523
To know more about LCM or Promotion Management - http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi31_LCM_User_en.pdf
Note: If you are using LCM in R3.x or Promotion Management in BI 4.x, you can also utilize the "Version management" to manage your versions to keep track off.

Issue with Business object add ........ VB6, SAP 2004A, SQL Server2000

my scenario is this,
I am creating a business partner when an item is added , my business partner gets created but not the Item.
The Item is created manually by the user, and the on the Click event of the Add button I create the Business partner. I cannot understand the issue. SAP does not throw any errors either.
If I remove call to the BP creating function then the Item is added.
here is the code,
Case et_CLICK
            If pVal.ItemUID = "1" Then
                If Not pVal.BeforeAction Then
                    If mObjSBOApplication.Forms(FormUID).Mode = fm_ADD_MODE Then
                        CreateBusinessPartner
                    End If
                End If
            End If
and here is the CreateBusinessPatner Fucntion
    Dim oBPMasterObject As New SAPbobsCOM.BusinessPartners
    Set oBPMasterObject = gObjCompany.GetBusinessObject(oBusinessPartners)
    With oBPMasterObject
        .CardCode = sKey
        .CardName = sKey
        .add
    End With
    Set oBPMasterObject = Nothing
appreciate any help.
Indika.

hello!!
are you sure that the program pass trought your function "CreateBusinessPartner"?have you put a breakpoint in the call of the function?be carefully with the events, beforeevent...
another reason cuold be, what value returns the .add method?
you can capture ...
if lret =.add <> 0
    MessageBox.show(ocompany.getlasterrordescription)
end if
Could be that sap don't create your business partner, and it no returns a visible error
ahhh one more thing, be careful with the form mode

How do you resolve the issue with an error message on the Mac mini server stating Unable to get users

How do you resolve an issue when creating groups on a Mac Mini Server when this error message appears.
"Unable to get Users & Groups State, The Open Directory master was created, but a problem was encountered trying to refresh the state of the server. Check log files for more info."

Most likely, the Server was not configured correctly - DNS is a common issue, If DNS is not configured properly, OD will not be happy. You can run
sudo changeip -checkhostname
in Terminal to see of DNS is up and running.

Do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

*Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Central Management Server - where do queries run

I want to monitor performance on a couple remote servers by running DMV's repeatedly.
Is it it possible to run queries on the CMS against remote servers, and store the results in a CMS table?
This might be obvious, but sorry I need your help in understanding... When you run a multi-server query on a CMS, where does the query actually get optimized and ran? On the remote server, or on the CMS itself. I.e., what CPU is
execuing the query? Where does the query get cached? On the remote or CMS? My thinking is that I don't to put additional workload of the monitoring queries on the remote server. Eventhough the impact of running DMV's is said
to be negligible, running many of them repeatedly must put some extra burden on the target server.

Hi District,
Central management servers store a list of instances of SQL Server that is organized into one or more central management server groups. After you create a central management server, one or more server groups, and one or more registered servers,
you can execute queries against a whole group at the same time, however, Central Management Server cannot be a member of a group that it maintains. So when you run DMV statement of remote servers , it could not save the results into your Central management
servers. Meanwhile, actions that are taken by using a central management server group act on all servers in the server group. When you run multiple queries on a Central management server, the queries actually are run on all servers in the server group. If
you want store the results about remote servers in the Central management server, I recommend you using linked server or set up a SSIS package.

Central Management Server - other Sites

Hi all,
I have installed 5 sites in my topology. but in my topology when i click on the top node i.e. "Lync Server" under Central Management Server section I only see names of two Front Ends.
Is there something I am missing?
Thanks,

Hi Atif7865,
Based on my understanding, once you published the topology, under the Central Management Server section, you only can see the one (FE) which hosts the CMS, and the option is gray
out and cannot be changed.
Did you see the tips below ?
To move the CMS, you should follow this article.

Updating iTunes with error message "this application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found"?

After updating iTunes, has anyone got the message "this application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." message and "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126)"? I've tried everything from un-installing and re-installing iTunes to deleting the SC Info. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Unable to Delete the Business Objects Installation folder

Hi,
I am trying to re-install the Business Objects 4.1 SP4 on my Dev Machine. I have un-installed BO4.1 by going to Control Panel>programes & Features>uninstall. After i completed the unistall process i have rebooted my machine and still saw the Business Objects folder in the Installation Drive.
I am trying to delete the folder but unable to do it. it reads 'The Action Cant be completed because the folder or file in it is open in another program'. is there any way to get rid of this error and delete the folder to start fresh new installation??

Hi,
To delete the folder you can use rococopy command.
Follow steps
1) Create one dummy folder "xx" on the same level where the already folder exists.let say i want to delete Test folder and folder location is F:/Test and create xx on the same level.
2) Go back one level up like on F:/ drive right click and command prompt.
3) run the command robocopy Test xx /MIR
After that you will be able to delete the folder.
or run one more command to delete the folder from command prompt.
rd/s F:\Test

Reporting of recursive tables with Business Objects 6.1

Post Author: pk7
CA Forum: Publishing
Can anyone tell us how to traverse recursive tables with Business Objects 6.1? For example, let's say you have an Employee table with Emp_ID, Name, Manager_ID. Like so:
Emp_ID Name   Manager_ID
1           Jeff           4
2          Grace        3
3           Stacey      1
4           Wayne      null
The task is to report the hierarchy of employees starting with one employee (e.g. Grace) and showing who ALL of her superiors are. Desired result would be:
Grace
      Stacey
            Jeff
                   Wayne
We have seen the expanation the seems to require the duplication of a table but we prefer not to have the same data stored in multiple tables.
Thx!

Hi Dan,
Thanks for your response. However, what I meant by client installation is exactly as what you have said below.
I start the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 Setup, go to custom install, which shows up the following options-
Client Components
Web Tier Components
Server Components
Database Access
etc. etc.
Initially I unselected all, drilled down Client Components and just installed the Developer Components. But the code used to fail with an InvalidCast exception when we used to cast an InfoObject to a Report as following-
Report report = (Report)infoObjects[1];
This code used to work fine with earlier installations of business objects.
This happened with all 3 of us who installed just the Dev components. To get over this we installed the whole Client Components and the above problem got resolved.
And now we realize that even the whole Client Comp is not enough because it gives the casting problem while doing the destination stuff.
