Issues with 'Structure Refresh' of OLAP Universe!

I have a report based on .unv which in turn is based on a BEx query. I need to update the universe to retrieve objects I recently added to my Bex      query.   I am facing the following issues while refreshing the universe structure through Universe Design Tool.
When the option ‘Delete Obsolete objects’ is checked in the update wizard, UDT closes out.   I then have to restart UDT.
When the option ‘Delete Obsolete objects’ is checked, UDT hides almost all objects and classes with the exception of 1/2 classes and affixes ## before their name.
     I am attaching a screengrab after the refresh is complete when the ‘hide obsolete objects’ option was checked. (No objects in the below screenshot were modified in BEx. This may help you make sense of the error.
The same issue has been reported in this thread.   http://scn.sap.com/thread/3374159
I understand I can create a new universe on Bex query and copy the new objects onto my existing universe. This way I wouldnt have to deal with refreshing structure of the universe.   However, I need to find the cause of this issue and see if it can be fixed. I am using BO 4.0 SP5.
Thank you.

Hi Venkatzeus,
I tried many times but I still cannot reproduce the issue.
In my environment (SharePoint2013+SP1), I insert a list webpart in a web part page within "Pages" library, then enable the web part properties as you mentioned and save the page, then use first user account(e.g. Administrator)
to edit/change the webparty "selected view" property option and click "Apply", and meanwhile the second user account with full control permission keeps this webpart page opening in view mode with IE browser on another
machine, 30 seconds later, the webpart content refreshed, however it doesn't change to Edit mode for the second user.
Could you please provide more information/step to let us reproduce this issue?
Does that "When one of the user is editing the list view" mean change the list view of the web part on webpart page?
Have you tried creating another pages library and pages, then insert another test list web part in your environment, see if it could be reproduce and compare the diference?
Thanks,

Issue with complete refresh on materialized view when using rownum

Hi all,
I had an issue with rownum when using complete refresh
I am using rownum when creating materialized view and it is generation correctly.But the issue was when i am refreshing the same ,rownum was not getting sorted in ascending order.
anyone had come across this scenario

rownum is determined as the row is output, so "order by rownum" does literally nothing.

Issue with Report refresh of the data

Hi All,
we have recently upgraded from 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.7 version of OBIEE and since then we are facing few issue with the data refresh.
whenever the data gets loaded in the back end the report don't seem to get updated. Neither the Reload Metadata or Refresh option works.
We have to explictly have to go on the RPD and update the row Counts of the object and Close all cursor to Reflect the data.
Is there any why we can do this....
Thanks & Regards

What about cache setting?

Issue with schema publishing after installing Universal Records Management

Installing URM over Content Server has been by far the most random experience I've had so far with any technology... Out of 6 installation attemts of URM, only 1 has been entirely successful.... with no errors.... the rest have errors that makes it impossible to work with the product... The funny thing is that the installation is nothing more than the installation of two components via Component Manager, with a few non-important options in the middle that have always been set to the same value...
First of all, in the installation guide of URM there are no mentions of required avaliable space in the Database Tablespace (idc_system) and in about half of our attempts (yes the other half didn't generate issues with this...) the 300Mb Tablespace filled up and caused the installation to pause until I added another datafile to that tablespace.
Secondly, the error that is a constant present in all failed installations is this one:
Unable to publish the schema. Unable to publish the view 'MediaTypes_View' with relationship 'ObjectTypes_MediaTypes'. Failed to append row. Mismatched number of columns in data result set [ Details ]
An error has occurred. The stack trace below shows more information.

This error appears immediatly at the end of the server's first startup, just after all database changes are done upon installing URM. This last attempt I actually went to check the Content Server logs before I tried to login to the instance just to be sure that I wasn't responsible in any way for creating this error, and as I expected it was already there, since this relation is created by one of the Records components.... This error is a product of the URM installation itself and makes it impossible to run any Check-Ins or searches, due to the non-working relation causing Javascript errors which don't allow the forms to load values into any drop-down lists...
We also register every "move" we make during installations, and as we reviewed what we did we feel we did exactly the same steps (it's not that hard in a one-click installation process...), why only ONE of the installations went okay we're entirely clueless about.... What we do know is that we seriously need this issue fixed, not only is it costing us a ridiculous ammount of time in "attempts" but come on.. this issue shouldn't really exist in a public release... unless we're the only ones being affected by it?
On a side note, the URM installation was done over a "fresh" component-clean installation of Content Server, so there was nothing of our own custom components that could interact incorrectly with a component of the URM installation.
If anyone has seen this issue before, please write something here. Thanks in advance,

you should issue a support ticket yourself and get a SR number... that's probably faster than going through the sales guy.
I'd suggest turning on the "schema" trace section, make it verbose, and restart. You may need to disable all component (including URM) before doing this.
Something is wrong with the "MediaTypes_View" definition file, which is here somewhere:
contentserver/data/schema/views/
just not sure what...

Issue with fast refresh on a materialized view

Hi,
Oracle DB version is 10.2.0.3
We have a matierialized view created using this script. We have materialized view logs on these six tables.
By default, it is set to ON COMMIT .
When a batch job is run every morning (usually 100-200 records) we set it to ON DEMAND and then bring it back to ON COMMIT. It takes around 1-2 minutes.
If the batch is unusually big, like say 100,000 it takes more than 5 hours to put it back on ON COMMIT. (We analyze the schema (GATHER STALE) before refreshing the MV.) Trace shows deletes taking a long time.
When I see a big batch, I usually drop the view and recreate it with indexes (there is also a context index). Takes 30 mins to do the whole thing.
I tried refreshing it COMPLETE when the num of rows is high but it still takes more than 2 hours..(I killed it)
Is there any way to speed things up without dropping and recreating the MV ?
thanks

Here is the solution: For thos who uses a negative GMT ,like me (Argentina -3 GMT) , will need to change for a positive GMT ,like Germany +2 GMT, then go to youtube with your native browser, see how works, and finally go back to your previous GMT.
PS: Luxintosh was the provider of this solution. (from another forum)

Issue with VO refresh

Hi,
I am creating a custom OAF page for timecard where if we change the period in update timecard mode, it should show the entries for the new period.
The VO used for showing the data for time entry is not EO based since my timecard is based on APIs provided by OTL (HRMS) module. I am calling the apis through the a db procedure called in AM. The VO is used for querying the data.
The issue description is
When I change the period, my time entry data is not reflecting the change of data. I am using an advanced table for showing the time entries and period field is a messageChoice bean for which I have fireAction property and also saying submit as true. However when I change the period in update timecard mode, it is not showing the new data but retains the data queried for first time. I have a action periodChange on message choice bean and I am calling back the same page using below code in process form request. I am trying to clear the time entry data by all possible methods but it is getting retained everytime.
if ("periodChange".equals(event)) {
OAMessageChoiceBean tperiod = (OAMessageChoiceBean) webBean.findChildRecursive("TimePeriodName");
String newStartTime = tperiod.getSelectionValue(pageContext);
pageContext.releaseAllRootApplicationModules();
am.resetState(true);
if (action.equals("Create")) {
pageContext.setForwardURL ("OA.jsp?page=/xxrpay/oracle/apps/hxc/webui/TimecardPG&ResourceType=PERSON&retainAM=N&Action=Create&StartTime="+newStartTime+"&StopTime="+stopTime+"&ResourceId="+resourceId,null, (byte)0, null, null, false, "N",OAException.ERROR);
if(action.equals("Update")){
pageContext.setForwardURL ("OA.jsp?page=/xxrpay/oracle/apps/hxc/webui/TimecardPG&ResourceType=PERSON&retainAM=N&Action=Update&Timecard_id="+tcId+"&StartTime="+newStartTime+"&StopTime="+stopTime+"&TimecardApprovalStatus="+pageContext.getParameter("TimecardApprovalStatus")+"&ResourceId="+resourceId,null, (byte)0, null, null, false, "N",OAException.ERROR);
I have even tried cancelling the VO query and clearing the AM, advanced table as well as VO cache.
Thanks,
Gourishankar

Kumar,
I have a similar need and I apologize upfront that I am new to OAF (and Java). :(
Basically, when I return to the search page from viewing details, the previous search is saved and cannot be cleared without going home and coming back in.
I know that Vo.clearcache(); is the solution.
So, I need to add this to the processRequest method in the CO of my search page... which does not have a direct reference to the VO.
How do I set Vo in this case?

Issue with Structure

Hi Friends,
I have couple of Keyfigures under my structure , but the report from this gives me the total of both the keyfigures , but I want to have a details of this total. How can I do this in a structure , please advice,
thanks alot in advance,

Hi,
It's not because of KF structure.If i am not wrong,you must be having a characteristic structure in your Query..right?thats why you are getting aggregated values of Keyfigures.
Just drag and drop required Chars into Query designer instead of having them in structure.
Hope this helps

Issue with refresh of an input schedule

Hi Experts,
We are facing an issue with the refresh of an input schedule.
We have a custom refresh via macro whereby we first refresh 3 reports in other tabs and then refresh the main schedule.
The problem is for a particular test id we need to click on refresh twice but for developer id we refresh it only once and see the value.
Can you help what could be the cause of it.
In the main report we have all dimensions in either row or column axis and we are also using Dimension override for 3 dimensions.
Let me know if any other info is required.
Thanks
Raman.

Hello,
Could you please specify the following information:
1) What do you mean by "custom refresh"? is this feature developed by the custom development team?
2) What are the level patch and the version of the product?

OS X Lion:issue with IPP printers

Hi,
After upgrading to Lion 10.7.3, I am experiencing issue with the IPP printers at University.
After installing the printer (XEROX WorkCentre 7755) no passowrd box appear.
Is there any workaround for this?
Thanks,
Giovanni

Since IPP printing does not normally require a password to be entered, I would have to assume that this is a requirement of the printer and thus there will be a setting in the driver that allows you to enter your password. So have you checked all the driver menus for a section where you can enable a password popup.

Updating OLAP Universe Automatically

hi,
We have created Universes on the top of BEx queries. What happens in BEx query is that some of the column headers are getting updated every week. Beause of this everytime we have open the Universe refresh and export it back. This recurrent activity is very cumbersome. We are using BOXI 3.1.
So can we automatically refresh an OLAP Universe?
Thanks

Serious Issues with Regions

JDeb 11.1.1.3, Windows 7 x64
I am finding serious issues in regions.
I have a series of page fragments defined in a ADF task flow.
When I change data in them the Commit does not reflect the change unless I go to another page and return (unacceptable for the client).
When I programatically add records to a table, they are not shown - the table does not refresh - even with an execute button (which should re-execute the query and redisplay the table), unless I leave the jspx that contains the region (unacceptable).
I have tried to requery, get the datacontol view object and requery it - I believe the data is updated - the table just will not show the data (not refreshing).
on pages with forms - when I create a new record (CreateInsert) and add data - the save button never activates until you move to another page and back again.
It looks like there are overall issues with the refresh functions in the region.
maybe I am missing some "magic", but this should be simple - straight forward - using partialTriggers - as it is in any other jspx.
Are these issues bugs or are there special considerations in regions for this.

Read carefully the article "17.5. Refreshing an ADF Region" in the "Fusion Developer's Guide for Oracle ADF".
It is not enough to set the partialTrigger attribute of the <af:region> tag in order to refresh the task flow. In order to refresh the task flow you should use the attributes "Refresh" and/or "RefreshCondition" of the taskflow binding in the corresponding PageDef.
For example, if your taskflow has parameters and you want the taskflow to be refreshed if some of the parameters has been changed, then you should set <tt>Refresh="ifNeeded"</tt>.
If your taskflow does not have any parameters then you can set <tt>Refresh="default" RefreshCondition="#{<some_EL_boolean_expression>}"</tt>. In this case the taskflow will be refreshed depending on the value of the specified boolean expression. For example, you can base the boolean expression on a managed bean property that is set by you to true whenever you want the taskflow to be refreshed.

OLAP Universe Refresh creates error

Hi,
we built an OLAP universe based on BEx Query. SAP Netweaver 7.0 EHP1, BO XI3.1 SP3 FP2, BW Integration Kit XI3.1 SP3 FP2.
BEx query contains 4 Filters that need user input.
When we create the universe for the first time, everything works fine and the Filters with variables are created as Universe Filters with prompts and LoVs.
Everytime when we refresh the universe structure, the MDX syntax of 2 of the Filters in the universe is added again which is causing an error at runtime. So when refreshing the universe 2 times, we see the MDX filter syntax 3 x in the condition field.
The filters have not been changed or moved, so we do not see why 2 filters are refreshed and 2 get addtional code. It also happens with other BEx Queries/Universes.
Thx for ideas

Hi Ingo,
we did not remove the filters from the universe.
"Added again" means, that when I refresh the universe structure, the pane with "added Elements" shows 2 filters that existed already in the universe. Universe designer adds them again.
These are the filters that create the problem.
When I open the filter syntax in the universe, the refresh added the MDX code again, so that it contains the MDX twice.
With every refresh the filter-MDX-code is added again. But only at 2 of 4 filters.
Rgds,
LK

SAP BW OLAP Universe performance issue

Hi,
Based on BO recommendation, I created a universe on top of a big BEX query which included all characteristics and key figures from a cube. I then created a webi report with 5 characteristics and 1 key figure from this universe. I also create the same report in BEX query designer(same number of objects). I ran both. The Bex query completed under a minute and the webi report took more than 12 minutes to run. I did a bunch of other test with different number of objects combination and saw similar differential in query performance.
I did a trace using 'sm50' and saw the open SQL submitted to BW from BEx was very different from what got submitted from the webi report. Here is what I saw in pseudo code.
Bex:
select dimension1.blah, dimension2.blah, dimension3.blah, dimension..... sum(measure)
from dimension1, dimension2, dimension3, dimension..... factTable
where dimension1.SID = factTable.d1SID
and dimension2.SID = factTable.d2SID
and ......
and (query filters)
OLAP Universe
select dimension1,blah, dimension1.SID
from dimension1, factTable
where dimension1.SID = factTable.d1SID
select dimension2,blah, dimension2.SID
from dimension2, factTable
where dimension2.SID = factTable.d2SID
select dimension3,blah, dimension3.SID
from dimension3, factTable
where dimension3.SID = factTable.d3SID
It seems the OLAP universe was querying the BW cube one dimension at a time and then somehow piece the result sets together to form the final result set. Dimension tables join to the fact table without any filter definitely causes performance issue. Beside, I have no idea why the query requests are submitted to the BW system like that.
I looked in varies forums and found no similar issues posted by others. Has anyone had any performance problem with there OLAP universe? Is this a matter of configurations?
My envrionment:
SAP BW 3.5
BOXI 3.0
ORACLE DB (version ??)

Hi,
You cannot compare a BEx query and a universe query by just comparing the trace.
BEx query makes ABAP calls and universe query makes MDX calls;
Moreover there is only one MDX call sent to SAP, what you have noticed is that there is one MDX call to retrieve member for a given characteristic whereas a prompt has been set on.
Last, Web Intelligence consume only flattened data (row sets) wheras BEx consume data sets.
That means that there is a flattening operation between SAP OLAP engine and the data sent to the Web Intelligence document.
A fix have been developed for a customer to improve performance on Web Intelligence queries, this fix will be available for all customers in SP2 planned in June 09.
Here is a a brief summary of what the fix provide:
- Provide data directly from SAP server to Web Intelligence document. Avoid unnecessary conversion steps: row set --> data set --> row set
- Eliminate redundant sort operations
- Other optimization operations
