OBI Presentation Services and Firefox 10?

I just upgraded my browser to Firefox 10 (from 9.0.1 I think?) and am getting a "Your browser is not supported by Oracle BI Presentation Services". Version 9 worked flawlessly (to my knowledge).
Anyone else getting that? I have a workaround (Chrome and IE still work) but I really enjoyed using FF with OBIEE.

I bumped into this because my Firefox updated itself. The Modify Headers Addon works for me, but I think it will be a bit beyond our users. I'm also worried about IE 10 now.
This reminded me of a thread on prohibiting iPads, and perhaps someone with more familiarity with presentation services can run with this (from http://groups.google.com/group/obiee-enterprise-methodology/msg/4ca8f8c0d74f1f43?pli=1):
BI EE Presentation Services now supports the following 3 tags.
+1. PermittedUserAgentType - The name field associated with the browser. This typically maps to filemap key names.+
+2. minVersion - The minimum version supported. This needs to be a string as browsers do things like 3.0b1.+
+3. maxVersion - The maximum version supported. This needs to be a string as browsers do things like 3.0b1. This should typically not be specified.+
These are there as part of the xsd of instanceconfig.xml.

Unable to Sign In into presentation services and online RPD obiee11.1.1.3.0

Hi,
I am using OBIEE11g (11.1.1.3.0) on Windows 64bit server, suddenly i have problem i could not able to login my Dashboard and RPD (online mode) [i.e: i am able to login offline mode in RPD] but Weblogic console and EM and OPMN all services are up .
Please check the below error:in RPD

Last few months ago i have faced the same issue ..then i resolved below method
Unable to Sign In into presentation services and RPD obiee 11
Issue :I had a trouble to login into RPD (online mode) the Presentation services lately.
It was working fine before and after changed console user sequrity things changed and was having issues to login lately after that.
It always gives me invalid username/Password was entered message when I tried to login no matter what ever username I tried.
I was able to login into Enterprise manger and Weblogic Admin console successfully with out any issues. All the processes are up and running with out any issues.
Tried rebooting successfully and still it wont let me login into Answers. So I tried if i could login into Admin tool and it wont let me login there as well.
So I created new Admin user in the Weblogin console and tried to login using the new user and still no luck. The new admin will let me login into the EM and WLC but not into Answers and rpd.
I tried deleting old references of the user directories in the catalog and still no luck.
It has something to do with the credential store. What ever user name I created its not mapping it to the Answers/rpd inspite of both the services are running
Solution:
======
1. Please follow instructions given in
How to fix “Unable to Sign in. An error occured during Authentication" error when a user logs in OBIEE 11g (Doc ID 1302924.1) step by step, for those steps you have done, please double check and make sure what you've done are correct.
2. You are still not able to logon because you have missed a few steps as the following:
8. Edit the NQSConfig.INI file to reset the FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = YES to NO and restart the Oracle BI Servers.
9. Remove, set to none, or comment out the line (see UpgradeAndExit in the following example) added to the instanceconfig.xml file (that instructs Oracle BI Presentation Server to refresh GUIDs on restart).
10. <ps:Catalog xmlns:ps="oracle.bi.presentation.services/config/v1.1">
11. <ps:UpgradeAndExit>false</ps:UpgradeAndExit>
12. <ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>none</ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>
13. Restart the Presentation Server for the instanceconfig.xml file that was updated.
14. Make sure Oracle WebLogic Server and the system components are also running, if they are not running, restart them.
b) Relogin as the problematic user to verify if you still see the “Unable to Sign In” error
Step 2 : Delete user from rpd if present
a)Launch admin tool and open rpd in OFFLINE Mode
b)Click Manage > Identity > Users tab to verify if you see this user present
Note : Normally you will only see list of users when you open rpd in ONLINE mode. Unless the users were created manually in rpd, no users should be visible in OFFLINE mode
c)If the user is present, delete this user entry from rpd
d)save rpd and deploy this changed rpd using EM
e)restart OBI Server component
f)relogin as the problematic user to see if you still see “Unable to Sign In” error
Step 3 : Delete the cacheduserinfo file from webcatalog
If Step1 and Step2 does not work, then do the following
Note : In the example below, catalog name is SampleApp and the user who gets “invalid Login” error is Administrator user.
a)Take a backup of your webcatalog
b)Navigate to C:\OBIEE11G\instances\instance2\bifoundation\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\catalog\SampleApp\root\users\Administrator\_prefs
c)Delete the files name cacheduserinfo and cacheduserinfo.atr
d)Launch OBIEE 11.1.1.3 and test by logging in as the specific user.
the best one is 3rd one.
but the above all methods also not working
Kindly check and help me on that ...
Thanks

Presentation services and BI server stopped

Hi,
Presentation service and BI server stopped with the following error.
“The description for Event ID ( 21 ) in Source ( Oracle BI Server ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: [47055] 30000 is too large for MAX_GLOBAL_CACHE_ENTRIES, and it is reset to default value, 10000..
Any suggestion on this..
Thanks

can you provide more information. where did you find this description,in nqserver.log?
Also check your saw0.log.

Sandeep

Urgent --2 BIEE presentation Services and One BI Server in Linux

Is it Possible to Have 2 BIEE presentation Services and One BI Server, so one BIEE Presentation Server access 1.rpd and another will access 2.rpd to create Report design.
Basically my requirement is at a time 2 developers need to create reports with 2 different. RPDs in the same environment with by 2 diff URLs.
This Situation is in Linux platform.
So in this Situation what NQSConfig.ini will contain?
And how many OracleBIData Folders will create and how many Instanceconfig.xml files create?
If possible please can you please share any documentation related to this?

Excellent discourse! I must say, this is a great example of what "forum" really means: a place where posters can point and counterpoint an idea in the arena of all Oracle "onlookers" where each can determine the best course of action for IN ('himself', 'herself') based on the evidence provided. Everyone benefits when a poster can document where IN ('he', 'she') derived IN ('his','her') opinion so others can test and verfiy.
In the vein of "Whose Line is it, Anyway?" ala Drew Carey: "Thousand points to Turribeach and Giorgio!"
(Seriously, though, user650397, you should award points to these two as valuable information was discusssed and whether you choose Giorgio's suggestion or Turribeach's, both ideas were "helpful" at the least, because without both sides, you would not have known that there are more than one option.)
P.S. I agree with what Turribeach said. We also chose the route he did.
P.P.S. To user650397: Change your username to something more mnemonic. I had to go back to the thread just to remember what number followed "user."

Not able to start the Presentation services and BI Server

Hi,
My prsentation services has gone down, after the changed the default rpd and oped another rpd which was password lock. De-Commented the AUTHENTICATION_TYPE = BYPASS_NQS and restarted the BI Server and stopped it again, then logged into the rpd without any password and then changed the password and close the BI Admin tool and started the BI Server.
But now the presentation server is not starting."Could not start the BI Presentation Services on the Local Computer. For more information, review system event log....."
The instanceconfig.xml has the right path "<CatalogPath>C:/OracleBIData/web/catalog/xxx</CatalogPath>
the catalog is the same as what is mentioned in the NSQConfig.ini.
Never this this kind of error before.
Can somebody please help.
Rgds,
Amit

Hi Saichand,
Sorry i had resolved it. Actually i had done some cryptotools for adding the Impersonator, and when i changed the RPD it gave me error bcos of that, i removed the entries from
credentialstore.xml and also from instanceconfig.xml and the Presentation Services where up.
I really appreciate your promptness in answering the question, do u get an alert in email or you keeping checking the site.
Thanks & Rgds

Separating obiee server and presentation services via Web Logic Server

Hello,
I'm attempting to Install OBIEE Server 11.1.1.3.0 on Linux (box A). I also am installing Web Logic Server 10.3.3 on Linux (box B) with the plan of deploying presentation services on WLS.
I originally did the following:
1. setup Repositoyr using RCU
2. Installed OBIEE 11.1.1.3.0 using Enterprise Option.
3. Installed WLS 10.3.3
4. Began following this doc: http://www.obieetalk.com/deploying-obi-presentation-services-weblogic
---and the following questions arose as I was going through those steps:
a. when I start up the Weblogic configuration wizard. I get to step 8 and it asks me to configure the Administration Server.
--is that the Weblogic Server(box B)?
b. It then asks me to configure Managed Servers.
--That is the Weblogic Server, correct(box B)?
I skipped Configuring Clusters.
c. It then asks to Configure Machines.
--I'm not sure what to put here.
**I then proceeded to open up an SR and was given a "Here's the install guide" as a 'Solution Offered'.
Oracle then came back with you need to do a "Software Only" install of OBIEE
--On Box A or B? Because when I do that it asking where the WebLogic Server / Middleware Home is located.
So, I'm asking
1. do I do Enterprise, Simple or Software Only on Box A?
2. Install WLS first, and then follow the document( http://www.obieetalk.com/deploying-obi-presentation-services-weblogic ) on how to deploy the Presentation Services?
3. Which will lead me back to these questions:
a. when I start up the Weblogic configuration wizard. I get to step 8 and it asks me to configure the Administration Server.
--is that the Weblogic Server(box B)?
b. It then asks me to configure Managed Servers.
--That is the Weblogic Server, correct(box B)?
I skipped Configuring Clusters.
c. It then asks to Configure Machines.
--I'm not sure what to put here.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Is this the only error that you got in log files. Can you change the presentation catalog name and give it a try. Kill all the services. Start OC4J and then start the services.

Hi All,
I had a running instance of OBIEE 11g 11.1.1.6.0, my 11g rpd and webcatlog was working fine. Imp to note is that, I had configured external LDAP authenticator and wasn't using the weblogic embedded LDAP.
Now, today, I had to updrage 10g RPD and Webcatlog to 11g and merge into the my current 11g system. I ran the upgrade utitlity and it completed the upgrade successfully but now when I try to login into presentation services using the weblogic user, the presentation services gets hung. It doesn't even give me a message like "Invalid login or password" I DON't get any message but my Presentation services and RPD gets hung( when I try to open it online)
Also, I am trying to refresh the GUIDs after making the necessary changes in the config and instanceconfig.xml file i start the obi server and presentation server, it doesn't come up. So I am unable to refresh my GUIDs
What could be issue here? Do I need to fix an credential file? Please let me know.
Thanks,
Ronny

"Your browser is not supported by Oracle BI Presentation Services"

Hi,
I have installed obiee11.1.1.5 on windows 7 and i am using Firefox 12.0 latest version.When I am trying to open analytics through firefox12.0 i am getting warning like “Your browser is not supported by Oracle BI Presentation Services” and it is opening in IE but charts are not displayed. Can any one tell me the solution for this?
Edited by: Uma on Apr 26, 2012 5:24 AM

Hi Uma,
good that your issue is resolved. we are generally modifying/adding the header to override the existing version to previous version, so instead of using the FF10+ header we are just modifying it to FF9 inorder to make it work
The UA string of Firefox itself is broken down into four components:
Mozilla/5.0 (platform; rv:geckoversion) Gecko/geckotrail Firefox/firefoxversion
Mozilla/5.0 is the general token that says the browser is Mozilla compatible, and is common to almost every browser today.
platform describes the native platform the browser is running on (e.g. Windows, Mac, or Linux). Note that platform can consist of multiple "; "-separated tokens. See below for further details and examples.
rv:geckoversion indicates the release version of Gecko (such as "10.0"). From Firefox 5.0 and Gecko 5.0 onwards, geckoversion is the same as firefoxversion (described below).
Gecko/geckotrail indicates that the browser is based on Gecko. geckotrail is "20100101" in desktop release builds and does not represent the actual build date of the browser. For desktop development builds, geckotrail presently indicates the build date of the browser, but this is likely to change in the future. Starting February 1st 2012, geckotrail is the same as geckoversion and firefoxversion in Firefox for Android with a native front end (aka. Fennec Native).
Firefox/firefoxversion indicates the browser is Firefox, and provides the version (such as "11.0").

Multiple Presentation Services -OBIEE

Hi,
I have 2 RPDs which needs to be deployed in OBIEE. I want to view the analytical reports of both these RPDs.
However the data sources of these 2 RPDs are different.
Also, I have installed OBIEE on Linux Machine.
Would it be possible to have 2 instances of the presentation services on the same Linux Box. If yes please let me know where I can find the procedure for the same.
Linux Operating System I am using is Oracle Linux 5.0 and OBIEE installed is the version 11.1.1.6.
Thanks,
Akshatha

Hi Deva,
I tried doing the Software only install.
I am facing the below issues. Request you to help me.
These are the details of the second installation :
Type: Software Only Install
     Installation Details
          Middleware Home: /u01/app/oracle/obiee_home
          BI Oracle Home: /u01/app/oracle/obiee_home/Oracle_BI1
The details of the first instance as as below
Type: Enterprise Install - Create New BI System
     Installation Details
          Middleware Home: /u01/app/oracle/obiee_home
          BI Oracle Home: /u01/app/oracle/obiee_home/Oracle_BI1
1. Is it required that the BI Oracle Home be different each time?
2. Once done with the Software Install,will i be able to have another instance (like perhaps instance2 in my case) and have separate presentation services and RPDs or there is something which needs to be done with the Configuration Utillity.
3.What is the scaling up of OBIEE about? Does it also not create another instance of the server.
Thanks in Advance

OBIEE Scheduler & Presentation Services do not start

Hi all,
OBIEE installation on my laptop was working fine, until recently there was some vista update, i know Oracle does not support Vista, but for some reason it stopped working, any help would be really apprciated.
For Scheduler I get the 1064 error
For presentation services i get the error code -1
Note: My Javahost and BI Server is running fine.
I am all for reinstalling, but I dont think that is the solution, so I am trying my best to trouble shoot this, as i dont think re installation will be a very appropriate solution on a client's server.
Thanks.
Rgds,
SB

ok i din see a clear soution here so i am posting this here ..
The reason why i got that error was because my catalog file for the demo that i was doing was corrupt, How why i dont know ..
So here is what i did,
I created a new directory in Drive:\OracleBIData\web\catalog\newcatalog
I started catalog manager from Start> Programs > OBIEE > Catalog Manager
Select Offline
Select Tools > Upgrade Catalog
I merged the old corrupt catalog with this new one
Went to the Instanceconfig.xml file Drive:\OracleBIData\web\config
Carefully replace the Catalog tag:
<CatalogPath>C:/OracleBIData/web/catalog/newcatalog</CatalogPath>
Checked on the Java Home Tag just to make sure it is correct:
<JavaHome>C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_10</JavaHome>
(Some of you may see your 'Oracle Java Host' working and the main reason is this path is not correct.
also if possible check if the credential tag is in place, it did not cause a problem for me tho..
<CredentialStore>
<CredentialStorage type="file" path="C:\OracleBIData\web\config\credentialstore.xml" />
</CredentialStore>
Go back to services and start presentation services and it should work!
Have fun.
Goodnight.

Presentation Services Keep Crashing

Hi,
We have the following setup:
1) Oracle BI Server, DAC installed on Server A
2) Oracle BI Presentation Server installed on Server B.
This Server B also serves as a web server for the siebel application.
We are facing severe crashes on the Presentation services and the application keeps going down. We have checked the option of network issues also and have rules out the same as we do not face any network issues.
Both the server are on the same data center.
Any inputs or suggestions to re-solve this issue as the UAT is in progress and these crashes are very frequent.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Anita

Hi,
This issue is now resolved. We had to apply a patch given.
There is a bug with the marketing application and this was causing the crashes.
After we submitted the dmp files captured when ever there was a crash, we got a fix from Oracle. We upgraded to 10.1.3.2.1 version and now the application is fine.

Anita

Not able to open presentation services

Hi,
I am very new to OBIEE.
We've installed OBIEE and able to work with the repository but I can't open the presentation services.
I've checked the presentation service and it is running.
Did we miss any other configuration before accessing the presentation services.
Please suggest me.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Tiru

Hi..
have you checked that OC4J and Javahost is running?
If yes, what kind of error you are getting while accessing presentation service?
have you checked NQServer log file?
please report back...
