NWDI as file repository
Hi
We will be using NWDI in NW2004s, and I wonder if if is possible to store files (with versioning control and check-in/out capabilities) that do not "belong" in the NWDI originally? The reason is that we need a central repository for source files for both java development in SAP and also for third party source files, and that the people I'm working for wants to have everything located in one central repository.
Any input is greatly appreciated!
Kind Regards,
Thomas
Benny,
Thanks for the nice and simple answer:) Just what I needed.
I am however curiuos about transports of java development. Does NWDI and Change Management Service (CMS) handle this completely with no support from the regular transport system (TMS) in SAP? I am no expert at transports, but thought that all transports were handled centrally using TMS (including NWDI development) when migrating from dev to test to prod.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Thomas

Report not found in File Repository Server
I am looking for some guidance as to what to try next with this issue.
We had ran into some issues with the central management service and had to reinstall crystal. During the setup we are connecting to our mysql database and the reports and folder structure is restored in the Central Management Console but when the reports are previewed or scheduled to run they fail I receive the following message:
"File generated name.rpt not found on File Repository Server.
Unable to retrieve Object.
File generated name.rpt not found on File Repository Server."
Has anyone came across this issue and if they could provide a solution would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.there are very many forum posts and SAp knowledge articles on this topic/error message. Please do use search before posting.
The repository that stores all your objects in Crystal is dual one part is int he DB - called CMS DB - it stores all te metadata, and second part is FRS (Input /Output servers) - they store actual physical reports and instances on the disc.
My guess is that during re-install you either wiped out original FRS location or after re-install didn't point your FRS to the right place.
If its second - all you need to do is point FRS to the right directory and you'll get your reports back.
If it's first - you just lost all your reports/universes etc.... and will need to restore from backup. -
Error: File Not Found on File Repository Server
Post Author: Ashish.Phanse
CA Forum: Exporting
Hi
We have clustered 2 servers and all the services of both the servers have CMS Name as "@<Cluster_Name>"
But when we run any crystal report through the thin client(portal) or through crystal itself, it is showing the errror ---
"xxxxxxxx.rpt not found on File Repository Server". If I check the path for report in CMC and if I check physical location, the file is present.
This is happening only with Crystal reports and not with DESKI or WEBI reports.
Please help...
Thanks

Input File repository server Error: The requested directory does not exist.
Hi,
Getting following error "The requested directory does not exist." for Input and Out put file repository server.
The specfied directory exists and the user has local administrative privelges with full control of the IFRS and OFRS location.
The location was earlier working and after trying to implement Windows AD the things stopped. Have tried reverting the things but the following issue still persists.
Thanks,
Manpreet@Siva,
I am not using the defacult FRS, I have specfied a specfic location on which the user has full control.
this was working prior to the Windows AD setup tried by me. -
I've run into an issue where saving a new CrystalEnterprise.Program instance is throwing an ambiguous exception with no other information than a generic HRESULT code and the even less useful error message "File Repository Server error". I've debugged the code using the COMException managed debugging assistant and Reflector to get to the callsite of the COM object, but there is nothing there to indicate what the actual File Repository error is attributed to. Logging for the InputFileRepository service in the CMS was been set to HIGH, but nothing shows there as a result of my code executing.
The call to myInfoStore.Commit(...) is where the COMException is thrown.
protected void CreateProgramObject(InfoStore infoStore)
using(PluginManager pluginManager = infoStore.PluginManager)
using(InfoObjects newCollection = infoStore.NewInfoObjectCollection())
using(PluginInfo programPlugin = pluginManager.GetPluginInfo("CrystalEnterprise.Program"))
using(Program tempProg = (Program)newCollection.Add(programPlugin))
const string USER_FOLDER_QUERY =
"Select SI_ID From CI_INFOOBJECTS Where SI_NAME = '[email protected]'";
using(InfoObjects folders = infoStore.Query(USER_FOLDER_QUERY))
if(folders.Count < 1)
Response.Write("No user folder was found!");
return;
using(InfoObject userReportFolder = folders[1])
tempProg.Title = "Scheduled File";
tempProg.Description = "My new program";
tempProg.ParentID = userReportFolder.ID;
tempProg.ProgramType = CeProgramType.ceScript;
tempProg.Files.Add(@"E:\sample.bat");
try
infoStore.Commit(newCollection);
catch(SystemException snx)
Trace.Write(snx.ToString());
Has anyone run into this issue and found a resolution?Thank you for the reply. I changed the file path on the BOE Server to match the path I'm using in the Files.Add(...) call. At least now I get a different error message, but it's still not enough to resolve the issue. The message is "File Repository Server error : File system operation for D:\Scripts\test.bat on File Repository Server failed. If the problem persists, please contact your system administrator for event log information." I verified the service account the SIA service runs under can access that path, but still no luck.
Using a UNC path resulted in the original "File Repository Server error" message in the Exception. -

I have gone to the Central Configuration Manger and it all of the servers running except for input file repository server and output file repository server. When I start those two servers it goes right back to stopped. Now I checked the event viewer for errors and these to errors show up.

Now to give a bit of a back story as to what happened before this. We were having a issue logging into the domain on this machine. The only way to get passed this was to unjoin and rejoin it to the domain then this happened. When I try to go to the CMC using the admin launch page I get the following error.

I'm a bit new to business objects software as this system was setup way before I started working for this company and noone that put this system in place has worked here for a while now. So I'm hoping some of you can help me out a bit or atleast point me in the right direction.Disregard that last post. I have gotten into Central Management Console. My next question is, where in the CMC do I got to fix the following 2 errors I was getting? I figure that are both talking about the samething but since this is my first time I've been in the CMC I am not sure where to go to fix it.

File Repository Server error : Failed to determine whether there is enough
Hi, We have setup a new server and while loading file we are getting following error message.
File Repository Server error : Failed to determine whether there is enough disk space. We are on BOXI R2 SP3 on windows server 2003 with WAS on IIS 6.0.
From CMC the error message is:
There was an error while retrieving data from the server: Unable to open file C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\tmp875.txt.
I ran Input FRS with a particular port and was able to ping FRS on that port. So port is opened.
Does anyone know reason for this?
Thanks,
KalpeshCan you elaborate exactly what you had to resolve this issue.

Error 1923. Service 'Input File Repository Server' (BOBJInputFileServer) co
I get the following error:
Error 1923. Service 'Input File Repository Server' (BOBJInputFileServer) could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services.
I am trying to perform the install as an admin. I previously had the server installed but had to uninstall and now I cannot re-install. how would I do a complete uninstall of all registry components, etc. if necessary?Ok. Please open the services browser (Start->Programs->Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services) and check if there are any BOBJ services still listed (like the Input File Repository Server).
If you find any services still listed, please use instsrv.exe to remove them (even if the services are stopped and/or deactivated). Try to install again after you have removed all BOBJ related services.

Hi all,
I have created a file repository manager.
I have done the following settings for creating a file repository manager:
Active :checked
Hide in Root Folder: not checked
Send Events :checked
Property Search Manager : not set
Repository Services : not set
ACL Manager Cache : ca_rsrc_acl
Security Manager : W2kSecurityManager
Description
Prefix (must start with /) : /demo
Windows Landscape System : Microsoft_Windows_KM
Read-only : not checked
Lookup mode : caseless
Read-only Content Expiry Delay:
Root Directory:
132.186.124.207\calender
Even after restarting the server, a folder by name calender is not being created in the root in KM content.
What could be the reason?
thanx and regards,
anuradha.Hi Anuradha,
The root in KM Content will have a folder by the name <i>demo</i>(value of property <i>Prefix</i>), not <i>calendar</i>.
BTW I recommend you don't change the prefix to <i>/calendar</i>... as the CalendarRM uses that prefix and so a clash could occur!

File repository Content Selectors not working
Hi,
I am using Weblogic Portal 10 with a file a file repository. When I add content using the admin console (for example an image of type image), I am able to view it. The file is also added to the file system. But for some reason the content selector is not able to retrieve it. Is there something obvious I am missing?Doing a local deployment to the server on my laptop, I found that I could recreate this if doing a deployment with the application in .ear format. Deploying from workshop, the application did not seem to have any issues. Did a successful deployment to the Test server this morning deploying with the .ear file in exploded format. Things seem to be working well.
I think that we will change our deployment process to do deployments with the exploded .ear file. If anyone has run into issues with this type of deployment it would be interesting to hear. Closing the thread. -
How to Apply Default Property Structure to File Repository

I have added few custom properties to the default property structure and those properties are appearing for all the resources under the /document folder.

Getting BO 4.1 File Repository Server Error
I am trying to save a 2008 report directly from Crystal Reports 2008 to a BO 4.1 repository and I am getting the following error
<Caution Triangle Image> File Repository Server Error:
I am able to upload the 2008 Crystal Report using the Add / Local Document directly to the BO 4.1 server but it only allows me to make a copy not overwrite.
Does anyone know what I need to do, if anything to get it so I can save the report directly form Crystal Reports
thanksHi Alan,
CR 2008 is supposed to work with BO XI 3.1. For BI 4.1 you should use CR 2013.
