Migration of Business Query file

Hi,
I would like to migrate Business Query files (bqy in BO 6.5) to Live Office (BO XI 3.1).
Is it possible? Is there a procedure for migration?
Regards

Generally we select "With Export". However, you can choose without export also. The difference is, when you use With Export, the data source can be recovered in BW 3.5.
Without export wont allow you to recover the datasource from BI7 to 3.5
Thanks....

BUSINESS QUERY (used in lower version of BO 6.x) to be migrated to LIVE OFFICE u2013

Post Author: shikhirgupta
CA Forum: Migration to XI R2
We have requirement in one of the project whereby they have BUSINESS QUERY (used in lower version of BO 6.x) to be migrated to LIVE OFFICE u2013 new product available in BOXI r2.
This cannot be migrated as BusinessQuery is no longer supported.
So we need to do a manual task of getting these Business query converted into Live office.
Please provide me with a writeup stating, what are the challenges, what is the process for converting BusinessQueries to live office, effort required to do the same.

Business Query (or Business Objects) transparent sort

Post Author: waldopepper
CA Forum: Older Products
We're using Business Query 6.5.1 to insert data into Excel and we've been doing for a while using a SQL 2000 database and making use of the useful 'transparent sort' feature that lets you order the query results by fields not actually in the selection.We've just started a similar project using a different database (same server) and whenever we create queries for this new database, the transparent sort button is disabled with Business Queries.The help file states: "Transparent sorts are only available if the database at your site supports them"
It's definitely the database that is preventing this - we've used the same ODBC connection, Universe etc as the other DB that does work, just changing the DB it's accessing and it doesn't work when we switch databases to our new one.Does anyone have any idea what is preventing this? User permissions/rights, collation type etc?thanksw

Hi Denis,
Thanks for your response. I am aware that BO v5 is an outdated software but my client is still using it.
I tried to replicate the BusinessQuery issue by using my citrix profile but I also got the same error whereas my colleague didn't have any BQ issues with his profile.
I assume that the citrix team had installed Business Objects v5 in shared environment on WTS long ago and all Citrix BO users will access Business query module with their own profiles. But the BOMAIN.key file didn't copied into shared folder which is under Business Objects installable folder and Citrix team had copied it at some local drive for some reason
I asked the Citrix team to copy the BOMAIN.key file to affected user profile. Waiting to hear user response on output.
Kind Regards,
Srinivas

Business query issue

Hi All,
Business Objects v517 - Business query 5.1 issue:
User will access Business query 5.1 through Citrix server via ILINK v6 page. Business query add-in is also added in excel. User will run BO reports from excel template via Business query
When user attempt to load Business query from excel via Citrix,an error message has been occuring and it is mentioned below
"Cannot access local security file. click OK to try again, or cancel to quit the application"
I guess local security file refers to BOMAIN.KEY file.
Can anyone of you all please explain what it is and how to resolve this ?
Kind Regards,
Srinivas

Replacement for Business Query BQAPI for Excel

Hello,
I am migrating from BusinessObjects 5.1 to Business Objects XI release 2 (Desktop inteligence 11.5.0.0).
Some users have developed solutions in 5.1 using Business Query for Excel extracting BO data directly to Excel.
Is there anything similar for Business Objects XI?.
Thanks,
Valentín Playá
Madrid, Spain

There's no direct migration path for BQ reports to BusinessObjects XI Release 2.
Closest in intent would be the Live Office product, described here:

Where can I find information on migrating from Business Objects 5 to XI R2?

We want to migrate several Business Objects implementations - some of which are Business Objects 5 and some Business Objects 6 to consolidate them into a XI R2 environment.
I have the document that describes migration from 6.x to XI R2 but what is the process for migrating from Business Objects 5. Do I need to migrate from 5 to 6 and then follow the 6.x to XI R2 migration?
Any pointers to additional hints and tips on migration or how to estimate how much effort is involved would also be welcome.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,
Following are the detailed steps for migration via Import Wizard:
1] Go to Start > Programs > Business Objects XI Release 2 > BusinessObjects Enterprise > Import Wizard.
2] The Welcome dialog box appears. Click Next.
Setting source and destination environments:
3] In the Specify source environment dialog box, set the following:
u2022 Source: Business Objects Enterprise BO 6.5.x.
u2022User Name:
u2022 Password: visor
BOMain key
Note: Do not check the Import Application Foundation contents option since you are not performing Performance Management migration at this time.
Click Next.
4] The Warning page appears. Click Next.
Note: The source repository can store any file, not just supported agnostic documents. Since the BusinessObjects XI Release 2 architecture requires a plug-in for each file extension, it does not import unsupported files (for example, .zip files and as .svg documents used in corporate dashboards).
5] The Specify destination environment page appears. Set the:
u2022 Destination: Business Objects Enterprise BOXI R2
u2022 User Name:
u2022 Password:
u2022 Domain key file to: Default drive: \Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise XI R2
Click Next.
6] Select the types of objects you want to import in this stage of the importing process. At a later stage, you select the objects themselves.
u2022 Select the option u2018Import universes u2018.
Click Next.
7] Import options for universes and connections dialog box appears.
Select the third option: Import all the universes and connections that the selected Web Intelligence and Desktop Intelligence documents use directly.
8] The Please choose a merge scenario dialog box appears. Select I want to merge the source system to destination system and check the automatically rename top-level folders that match top-level folder on the destination system option.
Click Next.
9] The Incremental Import dialog box appears.
You may need to import some objects more than once from the source repository to the destination repository.
In this situation, you have the following update options:
u2022 Overwrite object contents
You select the types of objects for which the content overwrite applies:
u2022 Documents (including dashboards and analytics)
u2022 Universes
u2022 Connections
When you re-import an object, it will completely overwrite and replace the matching object (and its associated files) that you imported earlier.
u2022 Overwrite object rights
When you re-import an object, its associated security rights will overwrite the rights of the matching object you imported earlier.
If you decided not to import security in the Security Migration Options dialog box, then the Overwrite object rights option is not relevant, and is therefore not available.
If you don't select any overwrite options, the matching object in the destination repository will not change when you try to import it again.
Note: This dialog box appears only if you select update as the import scenario.
Click Next.
10] Select the specific universe
Click Next
11] Information Collection complete dialog box appears.
Click Finish
12] Import Progress dialog box appears.
Click Done
Hope this helps !!
Please revert in case of any queries.

Content Tracker Reports Query file modification issue - Custom Report

Hi All,
I was trying to generate a custom report using Content Tracker. I was successful in doing so. However, I found that sometimes it does not pick up the updated query file of Content Tracker reports.
I made a change in my query:
from SELECT * FROM Users to
SELECT dname FROM Users
the change is written on the file but when i generated the report from C.T. UI, it's still showing me the old results having all the columns. Tried bouncing the server as well, but no use.
I also added a new query 24 hrs back (as SELECT count(*) As UsersNum FROM Users), it's still not recognizing it and giving error as Failure of server APACHE bridge: No backend server available for
connection: timed out after 10 seconds or idempotent set to OFF;
and the log says,
Unable to execute service SCT_GET_DOCUMENT_INFO_ADMIN and function sctExecuteQuery.
Unable to create the result set for query '(null)'. SQL statement to execute cannot be empty or null
What could be the resolution of this issue?
I am using UCM 11g + SSXA.

Server bounce.
Issue is not file update but some other issue, ongoing in another thread by Me.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
That's the classic behaviour after using Migration Assistant and that's normal.
To transfer the data from the new user account to your old user account, you can follow some steps. Here is all the information you need to do this > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5472

Get info then check permissions then add your curent user name (it was probably different on old Mac) and give your username full read/write permissions.

Using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook

When using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro, that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook, will emails, contacts and calendar entries be moved to Outlook on the new MacBook or into Mail, Contacts and Calendar?

I doubt they will. But then I'm not sure as I used a migration program once about 18 years ago and totally FUBARed the system I had at that time and I've never used one again.
For me the reason to have a new system is to start fresh. Installing only program that I now use and manually copying data over from the older system.
Not sure your older version of Outlook, and the outlook mail boxes, are compatible with Office/Outlook for Mac 2011.
A better place to ask this question would be on the MS Office for Mac forums.
Hope it all works out for you.
