Live Office Install

How can I get a client software version of Live Office.  My company has a temporary lisence for BOBJ and I want to test out Live Office. Where can I get this software?  Do I need to install it on my machine or does it have to be on the BOE server?

if you are using XI R2 SP1.
you can find it on the Sources CD, an extra CD comes with the businss objects SP1 software CDS.
if you are using XI R2, you should have SP2 installed, to be able to get the live office, and you will find it in the productivity package.
if you are using XI 3.0, you need to download the life office connector.
you need to install it on the client machine.
and over all you can download anything from the ESD website, if you have an access for it.

  • Installing Live Office - KB907417

    Hi,
    Hope this is the right forum for my question, if not please redirect.
    Currently I am installing Live Office (3.1), when installing Live Office, it aborts and asks for microsoft office 2003 KB907417.
    But I am working with microsoft office 2007!!!
    I have tried to install the KB907417 but then the system says "the expected version is not found on the system"
    Anyone ideas?
    kind regards,
    James
    Edited by: James.Jie on Apr 15, 2011 9:45 PM

    This may be because Microsoft Office is not installed in the default location of C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12.  If you installed Office in some other location, another drive on the server for example, you need to update the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\InstallRoot
    The default value is C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12.  Change this to where you have Office installed.
    This resolution worked with LiveOffice BI4.1 Support Pack 2.

  • Live Office SP3.4/Office 2010 - Live Office objects disappear on conversion

    I am testing Live Office XI 3.1 FP3.4 on a Windows 7 laptop with Office 2010 installed and have a question.
    I take an Excel 2003 file (XLS) file that has Live Office connections and open it in Office 2010. Then I save as an XLSX file. While saving I get a message that states:
    "The name, [1]_1_CRADDIN_DataGrid, either conflicts with a valid range reference of is invalid for Excel. The name has been replaced with 11__1_CRADDIN_DataGrid. You may still need to manually update any references to this name used in VBA code or as text arguements in functions. You must close and reopen the workbook before these changes take effect."
    I complete the save then close and reopen the file. When I go check for my Live Office objects, they seem to have disappeared (meaning I right click on what used to be a Live Office object, but I no longer see Live Office on the popup menu).
    Can't I convert my old data models to the new excel format? I am doing this because the XLF is taking a LONG time to open in Xcelsius 2008 SP4 with multiple server busy messages. I thought updating the Excel file might speed things up but since the Live Office objects are disappearing from my spreadsheet this is not working as expected.
    If any pointers can be given that would be great. If I have missed any documenation that may help me out, please let me know. I checked the Live Office documentation and the highest thing for XI 3.1 I see is SP3, no FP3.4 (or even SP4).

    How do I know if Office is 64 bit? If I go to the control panel, I see that "Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010" is installed.
    There are no named ranges in my sheet.

  • BO Live Office - Excel files no longer opening

    Hi all,
    I've been running into a problem and only encountered it when installing BO Live Office. On my old computer, I used to be able to click on an Excel file that was on my desktop, for example, and then Excel would automatically open up and open the file. Then when I downloaded Live Office, I was no longer able to do this. Now everytime I click on an Excel file (no matter where it is located), I keep getting an error. Excel opens, but it tells me "There was a problem sending the command to the program."
    At first I thought it was just my computer messing up and or something else was going wrong, but now I'm not so sure. I just recently got a new computer and I tried out opening an Excel file (from my desktop, for example) and it worked. Then I went and installed Live Office with the latest FixPack, etc. Once I installed it, it would no longer let me open an Excel File by clicking on the file. I keep getting the same error - "There was a problem sending the command to the program."
    On my old computer, I had Office 2003 w/Windows XP and now I have Office 2007 w/Windows 7. It doesn't seem to matter if I have the latest software or upgrades/fixpacks. This error still occurs. I've tried turning off/disabling the Live Office Plug-in, but this has not worked either. Has anyone run into this problem before? I'm not sure how to go about fixing it. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Charlette

    Hi,
    I also had the same issue (from couple of months) after we upgraded and it was very very frustating until I saw this post.
    Thanks a lot Tracy.
    I added "%1" at the end in the field labeled u2018Application used to perform action:u2019
    "......\Microsoft Office\Office12\EXCEL.EXE" "%1" /e
    The excel files are now opening. But there is also a message along with it. It says as below.
    >>>
    Windows cannot find '<excel file name goes here>'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To searcg for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.
    >>>
    It's odd that the file is opening fine even though the above message shows up. This happens to every .XLS and .XLSX file. Atleast the file is opening now, which is great!
    I am not sure how to fix the warning message.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks again.

  • Fatal error during installation of Live Office XI 3.1

    Hello everyone,
    Im getting Fatal Error during the installation of BOBJ Live Office XI 3.1. The full description: "The installation ended prematurely because of an error." This error occurs immediately after popup with Installer Information.
    Maybe it happens because of my system: Windows 7 64 bit, MS Office 2010.
    Do you have any advice how can I install it?
    Thank you and best regards,
    Sofija

    Hi,
    you should check the PAR but I'm pretty sure it doesn't run on Windows 7 nor on MS 2010.

  • Web Service URL in Live Office for Edge BI 3.1 SP3

    Hello,
    I want to install the best practices v4.31 for Xcelsius.
    I have : Edge BI 3.1 SP3 for server and for client,
                environnement Windows server 2008 and windows XP,
                Xcelsisus 2008
                Live Office 3.1 SP3
    I export an Xcelsius in excel. To open an Xcelsius report in Excel I should use Live Office. And also I should give an url of web service, which is http://<host>:8080/dswsbobje/services/session. This url doesn't work and a field with Authentification is grey.
    Can it be a problem of BusinessObject Edge BI version? A problem with an incorrect url?
    Thank you,
    Malika

    Hi malika paris ,
    The Url is correct  you have to change the <host> to the webserver name or CMS server name or IP address like "http://10.74.161.168:8080/dswsbobje/services/session".
    my suggestion is to upgrade your xcelsius version to 2008 SP3 as all other production version are SP3.
    Let me know if you have any questions.
    Cheers,

  • Pivot tables in excel with Live Office

    Once I save a business objects XI R2 web intelligence report to excel format and schedule to users the excel which the users receive should have pivot tables and users should be able to add any fields of their choice in the report and view it similar to the excel pivot tables.As far as I know I will be able to achive this functionality using Live Office.Is there any other way how I can achieve this and also has anyone worked on this kind of requirement and can confirm this will work without any issues with live office?

    It is not possible to schedule the WebI reports in Excel format and use a predefined excel template for this.
    What your users CAN do is to add their own pivot tables from the scratch in the excel file that was generated and delivered to them according to the schedule.
    What you can do is use LiveOffice (have to install the plug-in on all user workstations though), bind the instances and deliver your users an excel file, which uses liveoffice to bind the scheduled webI report instances (eg. the latest instance). Your users can add the desired pivot table functionality on their own or you can predefine this in the excel file yourself.
    Which version of BO do you use?

    CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
    I have installed Live Office and I can connect to my CMS and my reports are visible. When I try and import one it goes through several dialogs of "Importing Report" and "Updating Data" but then it just returns to the Select Report screen and never actually OPENS the report. It feels to me like a display/control permission thing... but I have completely disabled my Symantec Firewall and I still have the same problem Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

  • Deploy Live Office XI 3.1 on Websphere 6.1

    Hi everybody!
    I have a problem with Live Office XI 3.1 on a system that uses a Websphere 6.1 AS.
    If I point (from connect panel of LiveOffice) to the default Tomcat AS I'm able to use LiveOffice and connect to enterprise (BOE XI3.1) but, if I use Websphere I can't connect to the system.
    What I have to do?
    I use predeploy and then I manually deploy all Webapps inside WebSphere.
    All WebApps in WebSphere are flagged as started.
    Thanks!
    Bye
    Andrea

    First of all, thanks for the reply.
    Actually I use inside the options of LiveOffice this path:
    http://server:9080/dswsbobje/services/session
    and it doesn't work.
    If I try to reach that URL from my browser, I'm able to see the page.
    So what you suggest is to open the war file and then modify the path?
    Consider that we have installed BOE on the same machine of WebSphere.
    Cheers

    Hi Robin,
    Previously it was working fine. Then I installed SP3 for LiveOffice XI 3.1 and then uninstalled it because of version mismatch with the server during connection.
    So the error raised.
    Please help me to resolve the issue.

  • Problem with Live Office Web Services

    Hi@all,
    we have a problem with the Live Office connection options.
    The Webservice URL entry has an error: "Verion conflict: Your Live office client needs a newer version of Business Objects Web Services".
    I have installed the newest SP (SP3) for XI 3.1 for my Live Office Client and for the BO client tools but it do not work. Has anybody an idea?
    Thanks.
    Thomas

    Any solution for this? We have the same issue.
    Got resolved by recreating the webi document from scratch and the live connections.
    But this issue really scares me as I have did not see any reason for this to happen and it is very inconsistant.
