Issue in using rpd and webcat of OBIEE 11.1.1.5 on 11.1.1.6

Hi All,
I went through many topics on forums on how to upgrade the rpd and webcat from 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.6,it was mentioned that :
The obiee11.1.1.5.0 RPD,Catalog are supporting in obiee11.1.1.6.0 version. but should deployee it via Weblogic EM(FMW)
http://obiee11gqna.blogspot.com/2011/05/obiee-11g-deploy-rpd-create-new-catalog.html
I tried using the same rpd and webcat from obiee 11.1.1.5 and followed the above steps but after services are successfully started I cannot open the rpd in online mode it throws the error:
Successful completion of init block 'FndGetSecContext' is required.
could not connect to the bi server instance
and also on opening webcat its not accepting the paassword which earlier it had accepted.
Can someone please let me know what could be the cause for the above issues.
Thanks in Advance.

Amrit

Hi,
befor deploying your obiee11.1.1.5.0 RPD file just open as offile mode via obiee11.1.1.6. rpd then try check the
metadata gloable consistency (ctrl+k) then make sure no error i hope there is some issues on your init block its making problem just fix it then try deploy it and refresh GUID then try to login analytics it should work.
Note: there are some init block (I hope this init block FNDGetSecContext having problem just double check )
are failed just make sure and delete unused variables and init block and one more thing are u integrated with EBS?
thanks

Login time changes based on the rpd and webcat

Hi,
I have setup a new environment where I have installed Weblogic as the application server and on top of it, I have installed the OBIEE. I have done the necessary configuration changes also.
To test my changes, I have pointed my nqsconfig.ini file to default 'samplesales' rpd and same in instanceconfig. Now when the Administrator logs in, he can login and see the dashboard screen without much delay.
Now when I changed both nqsconfig.ini and instanceconfig to point to my organization rpd and webcat, it takes about 5 mins for the Administrator to login and see the dashboard screen. Same is the case for any other user also.
The user can finally see the dashboard screen but it is taking long time.
Could anyone please let me know what might be the reason?
Thanks,
Hari

Hi Srinivas,
It comes down to some tinkering in the java.util.* package.
First off, you'll need to familiarise yourself with the Calendar class. This basically replaces the old Date class from old versions of the JDK, and allows you to hold certain dates and times. You can get one by calling Calendar.getInstance();
You can then set a TimeZone on this Calendar by calling myCalendar.setTimeZone().
To create a basic TimeZone, have a look at the SimpleTimeZone class - it'll allow you to set the hours ahead or behind GMT, as well as a start date for this time zone, and even gives the ability to add daylight savings time.
From there, the time zone you add to the Calendar should produce the correct dates for you. Changing the time zone within a Calendar that already holds a date and time should alter that date and time accordingly.
If you want to get really clever, have a look at the Locale class - it allows you to specify a default language and country. You can then apply this to your Calendar by calling Calendar.getInstance(Locale myLocale) instead of the version above. If you have the international JDK (i.e. the one with i18n.jar onboard), Calendar should be clever enough to format the dates nicely for you if you use a fairly well-known Locale (such as American English and so on).
A Locale will also let you format dates in a location-specific way if you want to output them to the screen later on down the track. A quick look at SimpleDateFormat and some of the other DateFormat classes should tell you what you need to know.
If you can't quite get your head around any of the above, feel free to reply again!

hi,
my problem got fixed by the following :
1. Stop All BI Services using All Programs->Oracle Business Intelligence->Stop BI Services
2. Start BI Services
3. Login to EM and redeploy the RPD , this time it went successfully and no errors were encountered.
4. D:\MW\Oracle_BI1\network\admin...>>> Keep inside admin folder tnsnames.ORA
5.D:\MW\oracle_common\network >>> copy admin folder and keep here
6. Restart the Start BI Services.Now u can develop and view the report Output

Merged RPD not working

Hi Folks
I had 4 different RPD's in four different machines. I merged all four of them using the Merge option in the admin tool, into one machine as the requirement had changed. But when I upload the merged rpd in the enterprise manager I am not getting the reports in the OBIEE dashboards. Please help. I have attached the screenshots below.

Hi,
A good thing when having error messages on screen is to read them. I did it thanks to your screenshot and here is what I read in your error message:
Oracle Error code: 12154, message: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified at OCI call OCIserverAttach. [nQSError: 17014] Could not connect to Oracle database. (HY000)
The good news: OBIEE is working just fine ...
The bad news: your connection pool are using wrong connection information (datasource name, username, password).
Merging RPD and move them on 1 single server doesn't magically change the connection pools to adapt the settings.
Open the connection pools of your 4 physical databases defined in your RPD, check what settings you have there inside, validate the TNS is known and "pingable" from the BI server (tnsping) and make sure you can connect.
It's a DB connection issue, nothing more.

What is best practise to merge OOTB RPD and custom RPD?

HI,
I have to merge OOTB 7.9.6.3 RPD and Customized RPD. what is the best approach to do that?
Thanks
Jay.

I tried merge rpd's in tow ways
1.
original repository: OOTB 7.9.6.3 RPD
modified repository: customized 7.9.6.2 rpd and upgraded to 11g
current repository: OOTB 7.9.6.3 RPD
merge repository: mergerep.rpd
after selecting above and click next it didn't show any differences and directly gave merge rpd. Anything wrong in above selection?
2.
original repository: Blank RPD
modified repository: customized 7.9.6.2 rpd and upgraded to 11g
current repository: OOTB 7.9.6.3 RPD
merge repository: mergerep.rpd
with above selection it is giving about 500+ differences and asking to decide current/modified to merge.
what is the right proess for merging repositories?

Hm, interesting article.
It posts the error text from the manual
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14219/e29250.htm#sthref8601
ORA-30926: unable to get a stable set of rows in the source tables
Cause: A stable set of rows could not be got because of large dml activity or a non-deterministic where clause.
Action: Remove any non-deterministic where clauses and reissue the dml.
Mentions a support request on metalink of someone who hit the error, where the response from support was again the error text from the manual, and adds the helpful hint that modifying the where clause may help as it may not be deterministic.
So we have the error text posted twice and then a paraphrase of the action required, just in case we hadn't got it from the first two times.
There is of course a lot more advertising and colorful images to look at than can be found in the manual.
Maybe Stephanie F. was having a bad day, she doesn't look at all well in the photograph.

Merging RPD backend process

Hi guys
I have a questions regarding RPD merging, nowhere on net you can find information about it.
Question :
Mostly the RPDs are stored in form of XML. And when we create a object in the RPD a Unique ID no. is assigned to that object in the backend, from the admin tool we cant see the ID.(We need to copy and paste the RPD object on the notepad to see the IDs). Now say suppose we have one Repository named RPD A, we made some changes in it and now we have another version of the same RPD that is RPD A.1
Now we carry out merge process between both the RPDs. Through the tool it happens automatically.
* Now I am not able to understand what process happens in backend when we carry out RPD merging ?
* If both the RPDs have the few common object then admin tool will have objects with #1 postfix to them in new RPD, how the admin tool decides which object need to be prefix with #1 ? Does it compares the IDs of the object ?
I request all the members to kindly help me in understanding the backend process
thanks & regards

I'm not sure if this is what you are asking but: In the backend it is using a classic 3-way merge process where is compares each line of the current rpd and the modified rpd against an original rpd that they are both based on. If the modified rpd has changed a line but it is not changed int he current rpd then its a trivial merge, if both rpds have changed the same line then you get a merge conflict and you have to choose how to resolve the line.

Merge RPDS

Hi,
I have a requirement in which i have 2 different repositories developed against the same database. So they have same name for physical Database and schema in the physical layer and each of the rpd have their own different business models and presentation catalogs.When I merge these 2 rpds ,I want to keep the presentation catalog and Business models separate in the merged rpd ,but the physical layer has to have only 1 physical database with all the tables. Is this possible to achieve?
I have tried to merge these two rpds using a blank intermediate rpd, but what I get is 2 separate physical database in the physical layer. I followed this link:

Thank you,

Yes, the import from repository option works fine for now.
But I am afraid when this feature is going to be deprecated. Is there any other way to achieve the merge functionality of two different rpds and have the same physical database connection, but separate logical and presentation layers.
Thanks,
RM

Challanges, complications in merging rpds without parent (two way merge)

Hi,
Could someone throw some light on what kind of challanges can be faced while merging rpds.?
My first rpd is based on Essbase database and second one on Oravle DB (e-Biz App).
I want to merge those two rpds so that I can create one report in Answers having data displayed from e-Biz (actuals) and Budget from planning (essbase).
Now each rpd will have its own connection pool ,and initialization blocks.
After merging will the setting for connection pool(s) , initialiation block(s) of the rpds will be affacted and will they need to be reset again manually? or will the settings remain intact as they were in the RPDs before merging?
I am trying to understand administrative /maintainnce overhead , and ongoing efforts , complications after merging those rpds.
Thanks and Regards

AVIs don't have the notions of overlays. However, if you're going to write it and play it with NI Vision, I can suggest a solution.
Disclaimer: It's dirty, but it works...
The principle is to extract the overlay and save it as an extra info with each frame of the AVI. When you read the AVI, you retrieve the image without overlay, the overlay attached, and if you wish to view the overlay, copy it to the image you're reading from the AVI file.
The problem is that we don't have a function to extract the overlay in vision. Instead, what you can do is create an empty temporary Image. In the loop where you're writing the AVI, copy the overlay from the image into the empty temp image using IMAQ Copy Overlay (Even if the dest image is empty, it works), then flatten this image to string (including Vision Extra Info), and connect this string to the data input of IMAQ AVI Write Frame.
When you read the frame using IMAQ AVI Read Frame, Unflatten the image that contains the overlay (Data Out), and copy this overlay into the image read from the AVI stream.
Hope that can help.

Windows 8 mail app, has my icloud account on but none of my icloud contacts depsite merging outlook and icloud on the icloud control panel... Help?? :)

What you have experienced, though annoying, doesn't necessarily mean someone has hacked your account, though if you were finding that you were blocked because the sending limit had been reached that might indicate that you had been hacked.
What can happen is that when people receive emails which appear to come from their own address but they haven't sent they naturally tend to be concerned: however it's most unlikely that anyone has hacked their account, they've just been targeted by one of two common spammers' techniques: both arise because it's all too easy to forge the 'from' address on messages to be something other than the real one.
There are two methods. One is that the sender has forged the 'from' address to be the same as the 'to' address (so other people will see it coming from themselves, not you), presumably in the hope of confusing spam filters. It's harmless, if extremely annoying. Delete it (never ever answer spam or try to unsubscribe from it), and you don't need to be worried about it.
The other problem is that a spammer is forging your address as the 'from' address on a whole batch of messages. The first thing you hear about this is when you start getting bounce messages because the spam has been sent to non-existent addresses and is being bounced to you. There's no point at all in responding to it. It's infuriating but normally stops after a bit as they move on to another forged address.
There isn't really anything you can do about it: closing the account isn't really worth the hassle unless you are totally swamped, because you will have to tell everyone your new address. Apple can't really do any more than they already are about spam. However changing your password on general principles is a good idea.

I need to convert PDF to Excel, however, columns and tabs make many merged cells and many blank columns. In addition to not separate the columns correctly, I see many not separate lines together in the same cell. I'm even thinking that Adobe Acrobat Pro DC has limitations. There is no way to define what points in columns to force break column? Nor create many columns that are useless? How does text to column in Excel, fixed size when we import text, and define where the breaks have columns?

PDF does not contain columns, rows, formats, styles, or other aspects of word processing or spreadsheet file formats.
This is because PDF is decidedly not a word processing or spreadsheet file format or something "like" one of those.
(see ISO 32000 for what PDF "is")
What can optimize the export of PDF page content is to start with a well-formed tagged PDF (ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant).
Without that export is what it is and one performs whatever content cleanup is needed using the native application for the export file (MS Word or Excel).
