Creating MS SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services OLAP connection

Hello,
I am trying to add an OLAP data source in BI Publisher (which is part of the OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 suite I have installed). However, the connection never seems to create - I don't get an error or a success message when I test the connection. However, if I cancel out of the create connection screen, I get this error: "Your request was denied as you have no permission to access the data.". This is odd since the credentials I am using have admin rights to the OLAP cube I am attempting to connect to.
SETUP
OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 x86_64 bit Linux
MS SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services running on Windows Server Enterprise (32 bit) 2007 SP2
Windows users are able to connect to the Windows/SQL server via Excel 2007 and its built-in Analysis Services "Other Data Sources" option. Authentication is done via Windows Active Directory LDAP
QUESTIONS
1) In the BI Publisher connection screen, can I enter my AD username/password, or because I am connecting from a Linux Server, do I need to authenticate via a different method?
2) In the connection string, the initial catalog I am attempting to connect to has spaces in its name. Could this be an issue?
3) Given the "no permission to access data" message I am getting, is it possible I am reaching the SQL Server but need to set up a local database, non-AD account to access the OLAP catalog?
4) Are there any logs in the OBIEE server that I can check for more details?
Thanks!

With the new productivity pack for Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 (Service Pack 2) you can access SSAS 2005 through the new OLAP tool called Voyager. The productivity pack is due out sometime in the next few weeks.
Hope this helps.

Oracle 9i lite application development using java

hi all,
I want to develop a applcation which interacts with the 9i lite database in java.Is there any emulator which will help me in developing this on a windows 2000 machine or winnt machine?
i tried developing it in eVB but the emulator which come along with it does not support the 'oladoce' object..
please if anybody has done something on this please help .. this is very urgent..
thanks ..,
sreekanth sreedharan

Oracle 9i Lite is a multi-platform product and you need to specific the target OS for the database and the version of java.
If you are planning to run your application in Win2000 you will have no problem using Oracle 9i Lite with the supplied
jdbc drivers and any java development environment for J2SE. What you get is a laptop platform that works while not
connected to the Internet
If you are trying to using Oracle 9i Lite on the Palm with J2ME development on windows, it works fine with the Palm Emulator
but I am not sure that the jdbc drivers are available for J2ME yet and I have not used them as I have for J2SE on windows
I am also very interested in developing java applications for the palm using Oracle 9i Lite and I would appreciate feedback
on the jdbc and other required sql extensions for the sun java cldc
If you are talking about the PocketPC or other WinCE, I cannot help you but I have used Personal Java on WinCE but not yet
attempted Oracle 9i Lite on those platforms

Deploying a VB dll using some web service and accessing it through java

I'm new to Web Services Based Programming. I would like to know whether this is possible and if so has anyone tried it. I want to create a vb dll that contains the remote methods that the client will access from a java program. After going thru a lot of articles, I'm still unsure on how to do this. I found one method was to Create a VB program/dll, deploy it in a web service and create the java program that accesses by another web service.
I'm doing this as part of my lab syllabus. The thing is My lab exercises do not state anything about the technologies that I can use to do this.
This is all that is stated there:-
Creation Of DLL Using VB And Deploy it in Java
I just cant get any ideas other than deploying both the parts as web services. If anyone has Better ideas for this, I would really appreciate it.
I dont know anything about CORBA for languages other than Java and I'm already using the servlets and EJB's in my normal life. I'm also learning the ORB based programming in java. Therefore your help will probably help me learn something new then what I know.

Sorry I wasn't too specific in my last question.
This is my java class calling the native method print
//HeyWorld.java
class HeyWorld {
private native void print();
public static void main(String[] args) {
new HeyWorld().print();
static {
System.loadLibrary("HeyWorld");
In this case, my C method for calling a C++ method: HelloWorld.cpp
#include "jni.h"
#include "stdio.h"
#include "stdafx.h"
#Include "HeyWorld.h" //this is where i get my function prototype
#include "Test.h" //this is the C++ header where the print method and the Test class is
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_HeyWorld_print(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj)
CTest a; //CTest is the print class I created
a.print();
//This is the header for Test.h
class CTest: public CWinApp
public:
     CTest(); //constructor
     void print(); //our method
//And this is the implementation of the class Test.cpp
void CTest::print()
     printf("Hey World!\n");
     return ;
I could compile the Test.cpp, HeyWorld.cpp successfully. However when I tried to compile HeyWorld.cpp using
cl -I<path of jdk include> -I<path of jdk include win32> -LD HeyWorld.cpp -FeHeyWorld.dll,
the VC++ 6.0 compiler gave me this error:
HeyWorld.obj:error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public:_thiscall CTest::CTest(void)"
HeyWorld.obj:error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public:_thiscall CTest::print(void)"
Thanks for the help.

Analysis service cubes - Utilisation report, how to extract resource, team assignment information

Hi,
I am using Excel 2013 and attached an external data source from analysis services OLAP cube that Project Server 2013 builds.
The cube I am using is portfolio analyser.
I would like categorise the resources by which team they are part of firstly, i.e. Project Management, Technical Services, Delivery
I have created a PowerPivot table and would like group each user by team and then by resource name, capacity, work and availability. Time across the top, so I can see this for Year, month, and weekly utilisation.
How can I get the team that each is resource is assigned from this cube?
Thanks.

Hi Guillaume,
I think the field I require is listed in the Enterprise Custom Fields and Lookup Tables section of PWA, however I believe it was a default field that came pre-configured OOB after install. The exact field I require is located if you go to; PWA Settings
> Security >Manage Users > Select User> Team Details > Team Name.
As you can see by the description next team name, there are instructions advising on how to populate the team names for your organisation. So it was a pre-configured field.
Team Details
Team Details are optional and are used to define team membership and the team resource that represents a team. Before you set these options use "Server Settings"/"Enterprise Custom Fields and Lookup Tables" to create a lookup table that
contains your team names, and edit the "Team Name" resource custom field to use this lookup table.
Team Name is used to indicate team membership - each resource in a team will have the same value for Team Name.
The Team Assignment Pool check box is selected for the team resource, used when assigning tasks to the team. Often a generic resource will be used with the assignment owner field set as the team manager.
So I have entered in all my appropriate organisation team names in the Lookup Table for Custom Field; Team.
I have assigned each resource to one of the team names.
Now I would like to create a PowerPivot Table and incorporate the resource team to be able to create a utilisation report based on each team within my organisation.
After receiving the link from you above I have gone to central admin > Service Application > Project Server Service Application > OLAP Database Management > Configuration of Cube > Cube Dimensions > Resource >
I have added "Team_Resource" to the selected dimension list. Then I completed a "Build Now".
When I go back to my PowerPivot Excel sheet and refresh data I am able to see the new field however, it is not the field that I need.
Can you confirm which field I would need to add?
Is this field a multi field?
Appreciate your assistance.
Thanks

Application development

I want to do application development in java... I dont want to use applet... how can I do this? what should I use for it ? I want to draw and do image processing..

I want to do application development in java... I dont
want to use applet... The only difference between an app and an applet is one extends Applet, the other does not and implememts a "main" method. You can even have an applet with is also an application, by:
public class UntestedFun {
    public static void main( String argv[] ) {
        Applet myApplet = //...
        JFrame frame = new JFrame();
         frame.getContentPane().add( myApplet );
         frame.pack(); // Or frame.setSize( x, y );
         frame.show();
I want to draw and do image processing..see [url http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/Graphics2D.html]Graphics2D, [url http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/imageio/ImageIO.html]ImageIO and [url http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/Image.html[/url]Image.

Imapact of SQL Server Analysis services

Hi
What will be the impact of installing analysis services on an existing SQL Server database which is shared among different web applications Project Server 2013 (PWA) and other SharePoint Applications?In my
environment SQL Server database is shared between PWA and another sharepoint web applicaiton, so before installing I want to understand its impact on database and the other SharePoint Web application.
Please help
Himanshu
Himanshu

I may impact your Server and SQL Server performance significantly.
This is a common architecture in which both the SQL Server relational DB Engine and Analysis Services instances are running on the same server. In this scenario, it is absolutely crucial to override the defaults for both instances in order to prevent resource
contention, memory pressure, and (in the worst case) memory exception errors.
Consider
SQL Server memory configuration after installing Analysis services, which includes
Minimum Server Memory
Maximum Server Memory
Minimum Memory per query (only for advance users)
At the same time you have to set the
memory configuration for SSAS engine also you have to consider
LowMemoryLimit
TotalMemoryLimit
HardMemoryLimit
Remember, other than SQL Server and Analysis service other application in your server will be consuming memory. And the most important part is to leave memory for OS to run properly.
So, General formula to set Hard limit of SSAS could be (but not limited to)
Hard Memory Limit = Total Physical Memory - SQL Server Instance min - OS memory (include other application too)
Disclaimer: Above formula is just for demonstration purpose only; should not be applied
on production without complete analysis.
Worth to notice that SSAS does create its own database for cube so other than memory you need to plan about disk space (if you have limited space)

MS Analysis Services Universe

I am trying to create a Universe based on MS Analysis Services, however when get to the screen where I can see all the cubes I am able to see only the Demo cubes (Food services company).
I am using system administrator user and can see all the cubes when I log in directly to the Windows server.
Is there any settings on the Analysis services side which needs be enabled to make it accessible from Universe Builder?
Thanks.

Non visual totals in Analysis Services Tabular

Are there any work-a-rounds to achieve non-visual totals in Analysis Services tabular? This is a crucial feature for some of our clients and is preventing them from adopting this technology due to this feature not being available out of the box
as with Multidimensional OLAP. If not, are there any plans to introduce this feature for Analysis Services tabular models?

Hi Geoff3c,
As you know SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) Tabular only supports visual totals. This is a differences between Analysis Services OLAP and Tabular that SSAS OLAP provides one feature that SSAS Tabular does not: non-Visual Totals. It was considered that
non-visual totals are not terribly common, but some developers have worked for clients where non-visual totals were required.
If you have any concern about this feature, you can submit a feedback at
http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/Feedback and hope it is released in the next release of service pack or product. Your feedback enables Microsoft to make software and services the best that they can be, Microsoft might consider to add this feature
in the following release after official confirmation.

Consume the sample web services developed in java in Apex through https.

I am trying to consume a webservice (developed in java) in Apex through https.I get an error stating " wallet needs to be configured"
I have done the following things till now.
Steps:
1.Created a new wallet using Oracle Wallet manager.
2.Created a certificate request; took an export of the same; downloaded a trial SSL certificate form thawte.com.
This download SSL certificate is created using the certificate request which was created earlier.
3. Imported the trial SSL certificate to the wallet.
4.Saved the wallet to a file.
5.Logged in Apex Admin user and in the Instance settings section, specified the wallet directory path to the directory which contains the wallet.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Anish Thomas

Hi,
please try the stand alone OC4J. Due to its configuration, the embedded OC4J overrides all settings when you run an application. This means that the SSL setting is basically wiped out. So best is to set this up on stand alone OC4J

Creating OLAP report with Crystal Reports and SQL Server Analysis Services 2005

Post Author: orahc_mao
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Hi!
I am currently using the trial version of the Crystal Reports XI and I wanted to do an OLAP report. The problem is I cannot select a cube using "OLAP Connection Browser" (the popup window). I already selected Microsoft OLE DB Provider and entered the server name but still can't connect.
I don't think the problem is with SQL Server Analysis Services (2005) since Microsoft Excel - Import Data can detect the server as well as the cube I have created.
I also tried the "Database Expert" of Crystal Reports, created an OLE DB (ADO) connection with "OLE DB Provider for OLAP Services 8.0" driver, entered the server name, checked the integrated security and then I can readily select the database created at SQL Server Analysis Services. However, I still need the OLAP grid create the report but it goes back to my original problem... selecting a cube.
I hope somebody would help me with this issue.
Thanks a lot!
orahc_mao

Hello,
I don't recognize those variables as CR ones so it's likely something the original developer is setting in code.
You'll have to discuss with that person.
If your have SDK issues then post your question to one of the .NET or Java SDK forums.
Thank you
