LiveOffice/SAP Authentication

Dear Experts, I have installed LiveOffice as per the installation documents. It seems to work fine. But when I try to save the anything to Enterprise, I do not see any SAP authentication. I do have SAP integration kit already installed. Am I missing anything? Please guide.

It is installed on same machine. I checked my installation steps again one more time. I do not see that I missed any step mentioned n the installation guide.
I still do not see the SAP authentication in the LiveOffice! Kindly guide me thru.
These are the steps I performed:
1 --> Installed all the prerequisites including (SAP GUI, Oracle Client, IIS, Prepare SQL Database, etc..) following the instructions in Business Objects XI Installation Configuration Process.
2 -->     Installed BusinessObjects Enterprise XI R2 with SP2 following the same guide Business Objects XI Installation Configuration Process.
3 -->      Installed Crystal Report XI Release 2 SP2 and made sure that installation went OK by checking SAP tool bar in CR client.
4 -->     Installed Tomcat 5.0.27 by following the installation guide.
       a) Defined users for the Tomcat Web Server Administration as per the release notes
       b) Went to C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\conf\tomcatusers.xml and add the following:
           <role rolename="manager"/> <role rolename="admin"/> <user username="admin" password="password"
       c) Ran the Tomcat Manager from the following URL: http://localhost:8080/manager/html. Test to logon to the Tomcat Manager roles="admin,manager"/>
       d) Test to logon to the Tomcat Manager Administration (http:// localhost:8080/admin/)
5 --> Deployed the default WAR files for BOE applications by following the BusinessObjects Enterpriseu2122 XI Release 2 Installation Guide
6 -->     Installed and configured SAP Java Connector 3.0.2 Components
     a) For installing of SAP Java Connector, I copied librfc32.dll (actually it is already there by installation of SAP GUI) and sapjcorfc.dll to C:\WINDOWS\system32 and copy sapjco.jar to the application serveru2019s shared library folder C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\shared\lib
     b) Created the folder (META-INF) in the shared TOMCAT location  C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\shared\classes
     c) Copied the file authPluginExts.properties from C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\java\applications\SAP to C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\shared\classes\ META-INF
     d) Copied the un-zipped SAP Java Connector folder sapjco-ntintel-2.1.8 to: D:\Program Files
     e) Added to the PATH environment variable, the fowling path:  D:\Program Files\sapjco-ntintel-2.1.8 that contains the un-zipped SAP Java Connector.
     f) Add the CLASSPATH environment variable includes the sapjco.jaras:
        C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\shared\lib\sapjco.jar;C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\shared\classes\META-INF
7 --> Create a file called desktopwar.xml and add the following content <Context docBase="C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\java\applications\SAP\sap_desktop.war" path="/businessobjects/enterprise115/SAP/desktoplaunch" crossContext="false" debug="0" reloadable="true" trusted="false"/>
8 -->   Configured the Kerberos Windows AD Authentication in BOE System (these includes the steps to apply it on IIS and Java Application Servers (Tomcat)) by following the instructions in BusinessObjects Enterpriseu2122 XI Release 2 Deployment and Configuration Guide, Chapter 13
9 --> Installed Live Office Client 11.5.8.826 (server and client component on the same machine)
      a) Enabled Live Office client components (by running the enable_addin.exe utility)
      b) Running side-by-side Live Office installations (enable the Live Office Add-In)
10 --> Install Xcelsius 2008, Version 12.1.0.247     
11 --> Install BusinessObjects XI Release 2 Integration Kit for SAP SP1  
12 --> Install BusinessObjects XI R2 Service Pack 2 for Integration Kits
13 --> Make sure that BOE Sample Reports is imported to the installed BOE system
14 --> Configured and Tested IIS for SAP Authentication with SSO for SAP InfoView in BI system and SAP Enterprise System to point to the installed BOE system
15 --> Configure Tomcat (Web.config files) to use BOE Cluster Name & SAP Authentication with SSO enabled for SAP InfoView site when it is used from the SAP Enterprise Portal
16 -->Tested to logon to Live Office with SAP Authentication. SAP Authentication is missing in the Live Office like InfoView
Kindly point out out me where I'm going wrong?

  • Can we add new logical system in Entitlement tab in SAP Authentication.

    Hi ,
    We already Installed and configured sap integration kit and every thing works fine. My question is as of now we connected our sap BW Dev system  to BOBJ but we would like to connect to BW Prod System to same BOBJ System. What are the steps we need to follow to do this.
    Can we just add the new logical system in entitlement tab of sap authentication in BOBJ 3.1? and import the roles and login to BOBJ USING THE Newly added SYSTEM Credentials.  Thanks in Advance.
    Thanks,

  • SAP Authentication issue in Xcelsius 2008 SP4

    Ingo Can you help me?
    Xcelsius 2008 SP4 Failed to Open/Save from BusinessObjects Enterprise and throws an error Failed While Trying to Logon User "0000" RFC error: "LOGON_DATA_INCOMPLETE" when using SAP Authentication.
    It works perfect with Enterprise.
    Recently we have upgraded from Xcelsius 2008 SP3 FP 3.5 to Xcelsius 2008 SP4. It also displays the password without encrypting.
    BOE 3.1 Sp3
    Integration Kit SP3Fix Pack 3.2
    SAP GUI 720
    Xcelsius 2008 SP4
    It was working good with SAP Authentication when using Xcelsius 2008 SP3 FP3.5
    Thanks

    Hi,
    As a starting point, i would strongly recommend you standardise all your component versions.
    from what i can see, you've just asserted that Server, Integration Kit, and Client  are all on different Fix levels..
    that's not a nice baseline on which to investigate!  
    Also, patching would also include importing the correct SAP Transports into your BW. (they change almost every FP)

  • Change SAP BI Password from BO Client Tools / Infoview, SAP Authentication

    Hi,
    We are using SAP BI BO Integration Kit (BO XI 3.1, SAP BI 7.0) & able to use SAP BI Queries with WebI, Xcelsius etc.
    For a user group, we would be providing only Infoview access (using SAP Authentication). This means we would not want to install any BO Client Tools, SAP GUI or SAP Integration Kit Client, on user desktop.
    We are faced with a issue - How does the user change password from Infoview (this is an SAP BI User ID used to login from Infoview).
    Initial Password of SAP BI User cannot be changed from Infoview, since it doesnot prompt for changing the Initial Password.
    Any ideas how to handle this situation.
    regards,
    Rajesh K Sarin

    Hi Erwin,
    no. Also within BI4 you are not able to change your SAP password.
    The Workaroung of Ingo is very suitable using SAP GUI for HTML.

  • Best practices of BO/BW SSO SAP Authentication transports

    Hi Friends,
    We are going to integrate BW system with BO (SAP authentication). All the queries are built through BICS connections. And we have various reporting tools to implement SSO SAP authentication (Webi,Crystal,Dashboard.Design studio…etc)
    As per the process there are certain activities which has to be performed at BW level
    e.g -- BW Roles creation (PFCG---Crystal role enablement) and assigning to BO users
    Once it is created in BW , we have to do  integration at BO level( in CMC application) by selecting authentication and roles import followed by ……Groups..Users…folder and access level...
    My question here is
    Transports of BW objects for BO SSO (SAP) authentication (such as roles created for Users, Keystore certificate, uploads). Will these objects be transported by BW team or they will be separately downloading or uploading the certificate in different systems (like QAS  ...PROD….)
    And at BO level, once I integrate BO SSO, Do I need to do manual integration in QAS and Production system as well or it can be transported with promotion management of BO tool
    Will these SSO(SAP) authentication can be applied to all tools in BI Launchpad such as (Design studio,Webi,Web application,Crystal….etc)  as all users  are required to have SSO to all BO tool
    Regarding LUMIRA tool , Can we do SSO authentication
    Please share your thoughts and experience.
    I t would be great if I get BO administration best practices document for BW BO SSO and Users and Group management  in CMC for implementing
    Thanks in advance

    Hi ,
    Please find my answers below:
    1. The roles will be created in BW and should automatically appear in BO CMC Authentication SAP roles, if there is a connectivity setup between BO and BW irrespective of the SSO.The roles are transported by the BW security team.
    2. Every environement will have a unique connection to the corresponding SAP BW environment.For example SAP BW DEV will be mapped to BO DEV, SAP BW PROD will be mapped to BO PROD.So these settings cannot be migrated through Promotion Management.
    3.This authentication can be applied to all tools , the SSO does not depend on the tool ,it depends on the integration between two systems which in this case are BO and SAP BW
    As mentioned earlier, after integration all tools can have SSO
    You can refer to a lot of help documents on this site which will help you to setup the integration between SAP BW AND SAP BO.
    Kind Regards,
    Priyanka

  • Two logical name in SAP Authentication

    I have setup SNC on my BO development (BO XI 3.1 SP3) environment connecting to BDD. Is it possible to use same BO dev environment to connect to BQD.
    Can I have two SNC setting in BO dev environment pointing to two different BW system (BDD / BQD).

    Yes, it's possible, follow the same procedure of SNC in BQD. But BO to create ALIAS, users might need to login manually using BQD SAP authentication once.

  • Problem in CMC login with SAP authentication type

    Hi,
    We have installed the SAP Integration kit successfully for BO XI R2 & when I logon to CMC i am able to enable the SAP authentication and import the roles from the SAP BW system as well. But when I try to login into CMC using the 'Authentication type' as SAP it doesn't display the textboxes for entering  System ID and Client details. Can you please tell me how to fix this?
    Also I see that the CMC & Infoview authentication type drop down list are not the same. The CMC has the authentication types available as 'SAP,LDAP & Enterprise' where as Infoview has 'Enterprise, LDAP & AD'.
    Is this an issue with the Plugins? do i need to do some settings on the Tomcat ?
    Please help me out in this..
    Thanks in advance!
    Phani.

    Thanks for your update Jac...yes thats correct. Also I had to include authPlugExt.properties file in the tomcat/shared/classes, which i did not include previously. The SAP infoview is working fine now.
    Just one more question, in CMC login doesn't the SAP authentication require sap system & client id as its inputs? (in XI R2). I noticed that I was able to login with SAP user id's (without mentioning system details) , that have been added when I have imported the SAP roles to BO.

  • Getting error in SAP Authentication configuration for BO Edge 3.1 SP3

    Hi,
    I have installed BusinessObject Edge Series 3.1 SP3 and BusinessObject XI 3.1 SAP SP3 on Windows 2008 server.
    I am trying to configure SAP Authentication between BO and BI server. In CMC i have provided all the details under Entitlement System and click on update, After that when i click on Role Import tab I am getting "Name or password is incorrect". However, I checked user name and password is correct by login with same user and password to BI server.
    I have downloaded sapjco.jar  and sapjcorfc.dll and placed it at required locations and also done the transport in BI system as given with Integration Kit
    I checked document "SAP BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP3 Integration for SAP Solutions u2013 Supported Platforms" and found that SAP GUI 720 is not supported with SAP BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP3.
    Supported SAP GUI are:
    SAP 640 GUI, patch level 25
    SAP 710 GUI patch level 6 (1)
    But I dont found those SAP GUI's on Service market place.
    Please suggest me how to resolve this issue.
    Thanks and regards,
    Rehan Manzoor

    HI,
    did you check if the SAP credentials entered on the Entitlement System page have the necessary authorizations to read the roles ?
    You can see the details in the Installation Guide.

    Hello All,
    I reinstalled it again based on the link BusinessObjects and SAP - Configure SAP Authentication from Ingo Hilgefort and all are working as expected.
    Now I have a different problem, My Company does not intent to go for a portal at this time, but is considering using formatted reports using crystal reports. What are the other options available for the users to access these reports? For instance all the bex users have Bex Analyser installed on each client machine, do we have anything similar for Crystal reports.

  • Error while configuring SAP authentication in CMC

    Hi,
    I am trying to set up SAP authentication in CMC to a SAPBI system to which I am able to connect successfully in Designer and Voyager. I have the SAP Integration KIT also installed.
    As a first step I created Entitlement and then filled up the options tab ( Have checked the option Automatically Import Users).
    But when I click on Role Import Tab, I get the following error.
    com/sap/mw/jco/JCO$Function
    Is it because I need to install SAP JCo? Please suggest.
    If I need install SAP JCo is it freely available? Which version has to be installed?
    Any suggestions will surely help.
    Thanks in advance,

    Same issue here.
    Business Objects Enterprise 3.0 is installed on a dedicated machine.  I have followed the documented installation procedure, step by step, but I am still facing two issues:
    #1. SAP Authentication does not work.  When trying to log into InfoView using SAP Authentication, I get the following error:
    Account information not recognized:
    CSecSAPR3Binding::XRFCCnxBroker::BorrowConnection() failed. See following log entries for details.
    Failed while trying to log on to SAP system.
    The following RFC error was returned: [Group, Key, Message]:
    [103, "RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE", "Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)"].
    The entitlement system has therefore been disabled in memory.
    This may be because the SAP system is unavailable or because the credentials are invalid.
    The entitlement system has to be re-enabled before it can be used again.
    #2.  BOE is unable to import the SAP roles (from CMC SAP Authentication configuration).  The application throws the following error:
    An error has occurred:
    com/sap/mw/jco/JCO$Function
    I am using JCo v 2.1.8.  sapjco.jar was extracted to C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\common\lib and sapjcorfc.dll was extracted to C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86.  librfc32.dll was installed in a prior step by the SAP Front End, and the file exists in C:\Windows\system32.
    Any other ideas?

  • Different languages without using SAP authentication

    Hi folks,
    is it possible to leverage the language capabilities of BW in WebI through an Universe WITHOUT using SAP authentication (means having a fixed user in the underlaying BW connection and NOT SSO)??
    We are facing this requirement in a POC having Cognos as oponent and they can do this!
    Thanks and regards,
    Harald

    Hi Sebastian,
    yes I know, but this is then fix per connection. What I want is having one universe with one connection, BUT still leveraging the different language-texts from SAP BW... Is this possible or not? Until now I only see the possibility to create one universe for each language and this is not satisfiying the customer...

  • Impliment SAP Authentication for Translation manager BI 4.0

    Hello Experts,
    We are using SAP Authentication type  to logon and to create the reports.The reports are created now.We would need to have these reports translated using Translation Manager (TM) but they have provided a user name on Enterprise login.
    But when we try to import the reports it is getting failed and giving an error "InitInitilization Java" exception .
    As when the clinet tool TM is opened it is not showing the SAP authentication it has (Enterprise,Windows AD,LDAP,Standalone) and no SAP.
    So can you suggest about how to have the SAP login for TM also.We are using BI 4.0 SP 2.7.Reports are created using BEX as back end.
    thanks in advance
    Lekshmi

    Hi Lekshmi,
    In your Translation Manager web.xml look for Authentication.default and set sso.sap.primary and set the values as
    <context-param>
      <param-name>authentication.default</param-name>
      <param-value>secSAPR3</param-value>
      </context-param>
