OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 Disk 2 (2 of 2)

Hi,
I am wondering whether I am the only one experiencing the problem. When I download:
http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/bi/111150/bi_windows_x86_111150_32_disk2_2of2.zip
I receive a file that is 1.50mb and seems to be a corrupt archive. Am I missing something or is there an issue?
Regards
Chris

I have managed to download directly from edelivery it is only when I download from
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/downloads/biee-111150-393613.html
That I get the issue.
Hope this helps anyone else experiencing the same problem.
Regards
Chris

Not able to login into presentations server

Hi,
I have installed OBIEE in my local machine. As a part of report creation I have created an rpd file and changed the NQSConfig.ini file as mentioned in
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_bi/bi_ee_1013/bi_admin/biadmin.html.
Then I have re-started the OC4J server and all the OBIEE services. Then I open the Presentation Services, I am not able to log in. The error shown is
Error Codes: WH4KCFW6:OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC
Odbc driver returned an error (SQLDriverConnectW).

I have checked the Log file (NQServer.log file in /OracleBI/Server/log folder). The Entries in the Log file are like this

I have already gone through the forums which are already logged reporting the same error. But I dint get any pointers to the solution.
Please let me know what might have gone wrong and how I can login to the Presentation Server and continue with report creation. Please let me know if you need further information on this .
Thanks in advance for your time,
Raj Kumar

Does the time of the error in NQSServer.log match with when you try to login to Presentation Services?
I donot see any error matching the time of loginto presentation services.

OBIEE Server crash

Hello Gurus:
I am having a server crash problem.
OBIEE server crashes around afternoon almost everyday.
error is "An error occurred contacting Oracle BI Presentation Services. If this problem persists, contact your ssytem admin. Error Codes: GDO7WNZA"
I tried to see the server log, it says
nQSError: 16001] ODBC error state: 28000 code: 18456 message: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'ETL_OLAP'..
Few minutes before server crash.
I cant even restart the services.
And after I bounce the server, it says
[nQSError: 58030] The specified cache entry could not be loaded during initialization.
[nQSError: 52020] Cache entry, 'C:\OracleBIData\cache\NQS_733394_47613_00006309.TBL', is invlaid due to either non-existing file name, size does not match, exceeding maximum space limit nor exceeding maximum entry limit, and it's been removed.
2008-12-16 14:06:55
So Is it because Users are trying to run BIG LONG reports?
also memory usage is very high in like 2 GBs or something.
PLease help me with it.
Thanks.
~Vinay

It's probalbly the running out of chache space.
It's not a good idea to have your cache file residing on the same drive as your OS. When it runs into disk size problem in can make your OS corrupt. Have a look here on cache management:

During configuration process after the installation process is completed , here the process is stopped at "Step:executing opmnctl start configuration_obisch1" status "failed"
Here is the error:

Friend,
Installer file size is:
Size: *1.23 GB (1,323,085,837 bytes).*
Size on disk: *1.23 GB (1,323,089,920 bytes).*
I tested also disabling antivirus on my PC and disconnect the power cord before starting the installation of JDeveloper. In both tests the result was the same.
Some additional recommendations to solve this case.
Thank you for supporting.

Error RCU-6083 during RCU installation prior to OBIEE 11g on Solaris

Hello,
I have an application server where I have an Oracle Database EE 11g running on Solaris 10 upgrade 9.
The server has the following characteristics:
- SUN V440
- RAM 16GB
- 2 processors Ultra Sparc III, 1.5GHz
- OS: Solaris version 10
- Disk space: 500GB
- Oracle Weblogic Server 11g (10.3)
- Ethernet 1 Gpbs
I want to install the RCU schemas and OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.5.0) on this server so I verified all the pre-requisites for RCU and OBIEE and are OK.
I am using the Repository Creation Utility (11.1.1.5.0) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) to install the RCU because although the database is running on Solaris, the installer is not working through that server so I have a PC connected to the network and through that PC that has windows7 i could run the installer and connect to the db, using the SYSTEM user (because when i select sys as sysdba, although the password is correct, it doesn't connect to the db).
However, the installer is sending the ERROR: RCU-6083 regarding the pre-requisites for the BIPLATFORM.
I already use the following command alter system set processes=500 and restarted the db services, however the wizard installer is still sendig that error.
What can be done to succesfully install the RCU?
Thanks and regards,
Rebeca

Hello User,
Below my comments in blue:-
1) Do I need to install any Oracle DB (like to install 10g) prior to running rcu.bat file?
Yes
2) If I install Oracle 10g DB, does if create any compatibility issue while installing OBIEE 11g?
Check below the compatibility matrix

Crc error in download of OBIEE 11g

I'm trying to get OBIEE 11g installed, but sadly one of the files i want to download keeps saying it is corrupt.
http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/bi/111130/bi_windows_x86_111130_32_disk1_2of2.zip gives a crc-error when extracting it. I tried downloading it multiple times using different browsers/computers but no luck.
Do more people experience this or does anybody know a solution for this. A mirror to download the file from works fine for me too. Disk 1 file 1 of 2, and both files from disk 2 download and extract just fine.
thnx for helping.

Hi,
We have downloaded the files without any corruption,sometimes it happens due to internet connectivity.
Follow this link for download and installation http://onlineappsdba.com/index.php/2010/08/14/obiee-11g-111130-documentation-installation/
Hope helps you.Mark points.

OBIEE install problem on Windows 2008 R2 64bit server

Hi!
I have for 1 month struggled with a OBIEE 11g install on a Windows 2008 R2 64 bit server. (I have a open SR at Oracle but have not got any answer/suggestion for 2 weeks)
I follow these documentations:
Oracle® Fusion Middleware
Installation Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence
11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
E10539-01
and
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10539/c4_installing.htm#CIHDJGIH
Specially chapter 4.4.4 for the moment, cant get pass step "Specify Installation Location"
First did I run RCU against our Oracle 11g database and created the schemas for BI Publisher
Then did I install JRockIT - jrockit-jdk1.6.0_26-R28.1.4-4.0.1-windows-x64.exe
Then from JRockIT installed WLS_1035 generic.
Then configure AdminServer so thatone is up and running (even installed a HTML server from E1 to check if WLS is up and running and working)
Then start the installer (Oracle Business Intelligence, v. 11.1.1.5.0, for Microsoft Windows x86-64-bit) disk 1, setup.exe, then must I choose "software only" install. But on step 3 och 9 can I not press next, the installer says that I do not have any "Application Server" running. I have installed on E:\Oracle\Middleware but the installer can not see any application there, but I can access it thru a browser.
Tests I have done,
Install loopback adapter
Deinstall loopback
Deactivated everything but IPV4 protocoll (we have also IPV6 on all server).
Verified that we have static ip on the server
Tried installer for BIP (OBIEE) with WLS AdminServer running and without have it running.
And checked the installer logs everytime, no errors, no warning.
Is there anyone how can guide me or give some tips? I am getting frustrated after 4 weeks without success.
Best regards,
Anders

Hi!
It is the installer who not working properly, when using the "Browse", I had to choose a comletly wrong place first, and then again choose the correct installation path, after that would the understand where I wanted to install.
Best regards,
Anders

Running out of disk space in c drive

Hi,
i'm new to OBIEE, i installed obiee 10.1.3.4 on my computer , i'm doing practice on sample sales. every day i could see message running out of disk space, daily i'm purging cache entries and deleting sessions in UI, and also deleting temp files in oracle BI data, but still i'm facing this problem.
could anyone give me more ideas.
Your valuable suggestions are appreciated.

iTunes prefs - Advanced.
Set the *iTunes media folder location* to the external drive.
Make sure *Keep iTunes media folder organized* and *Copy files to iTunes media folder ...* are both checked.
Then go to iTunes menu File > Library > Organize library - Consolidate.
This will copy everything in iTunes to the new location.
After it is complete, quit iTunes then delete \Music\iTunes\iTunes media\ folder.

Installing Repository Creation Utility (RCU) for OBIEE 11g

Hello,
We are working on installing the Oracle Business Intelligence Entreprise Edition Plus 11g (v 11.1.1.6.0) for a POC in our Company's network.
We have to install the OBI Server and other server-side components on a IBM AIX (64-Bit) server; and the client tools on the local Desktops.
My queries:
*1. I am downloading the following softwares for this setup. Please help me understand is this the complete list of softwares required, or are there any more softwares required for OBIEE 11g intallation?*
List of softwares to be downloaded:
1) Oracle Business Intelligence, v. 11.1.1.6.0
- for AIX (64-Bit):
Disk 1 (1of2) (1.4G) (cksum 4182440856)
Disk 1 (2of2) (1.5G) (cksum 2020935297)
Disk 2 (1of2) (1.7G) (cksum 796853559)
Disk 2 (2of2) (1.3G) (cksum 685152953)
Disk 3 (1.6G) (cksum 1431984641)
2) Repository Creation Utility (11.1.1.6.0)
for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) (320M) (cksum 2503314275) OR for Linux x86 (32-bit) (391M) (cksum 201758785)
Link for (1) and (2): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/downloads/bi-downloads-1525270.html
3) Oracle Business Intelligence Developer Client Tools Installer (11.1.1.6.0)
- for Microsoft Windows x86 (32/64-bit): (360M) (cksum 3317017977)
Link for (3): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/downloads/bus-intelligence-11g-165436.html
NOTE: The JDK 1.5.0 is installed
*2. Where should the additional required software 'Repository Creation Utility' be installed in this case?*
I can see it is available for 32-bit OS (Windows or Linux x86), and that is why I suspect it to be a client-side software - which is to be installed on my local desktop. Hence, Can I download the Repository Creation Utility (11.1.1.6.0) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) (320M) (cksum 2503314275)
Please clarify.
*4. I will not be installing any of the Oracle BI Applications, so will I require the software Oracle Business Intelligence Data Warehouse Administration Console (10.1.3.4.1)?*
I assume NO.
*5. IMP: Is there a Web server (E.g. Oracle WebLogic Server) included in the OBIEE suite, which gets installed in the default installation settings?*
OR Is there a need to download and install a separate Webserver on the AIX system before installing OBIEE.
Please reply ASAP.
Thanks,
Shweta.

Although it is a POC, but the installation has to be done on a AIX6.1 remote system, which will be used as a server in the enterprise, with 5 to 7 people accessing it. So 'simple install' is not suitable in this case.
The AIX6.1 system has a JDK 6 (64 bit).
I understand that the OBIEE 11g suite comes with a Oracle WebLogic Server (OWLS) installable included in the suite. However, in case of Software Only installation type, the OWLS needs to installed first and then the installer has to be started in 'Softwar Only' mode.
Could anyone please suggest:
*1) does 'Enterprise Install' type suite on the AIX6.1 system? If yes, does it mean that it will install JDK once again? is this recommended, as the host system is a shared server and the existing JDK 6 (64-bit) can be in use by other applications on this system.*
*2) If (1) is not true, is there a way to install the Oracle WebLogic server using the OBIEE 11g installer itself? or do I need to download the WebLogic server installer separately from the OTN site?*
Thanks in advance for any helping pointers on the above.
Please reply ASAP, as this is urgent.
Thanks,
Shweta.

The output from md5sum is what it should be.
I gather that these multiple 2 gig files create one big 22 gig file.
And that the information on all the files is actually found on the last file.
I've tried multiple unzip commands to unzip them, to no avail.
Notes below.
What is the exact Linux command and syntax to unzip them?
Thanks a lot.

Yes, after successfully unzipping on Windows before, I
knew that I could use Windows as a possible work around.
However. Windows is NTFS. Redhat does not work with it.
So, at least two 20 gig copies would be required.
To FAT32.
Then to ext4.
Each a different file system.
Check sum errors anyone?
The idea of contacting Oracle was to hopefully
get in contact with the people who originally
created the zip archive.
If they ran the commands to:
22 gig file -> 11 file archive of 2 gig files
You would think that they would also know how to:
11 file archive of 2 gig files -> 22 gig file
Is anyone in contact with them?
If so, what is the the correct answer?

OBIEE 11g Application Performance Monitoring

Are there any best practices or recommendations for Application Performance Monitoring for OBIEE 11g?
I see that from Fusion MiddleWare Control, we can navigate to Business Intelligence -> CoreApplication (right click) -> Monitoring -> Performance
And from here we have a huge amount of performance metrics to choose from.
What I'm interested in finding out is:
1). Out of these hundreds of metrics, are there a subset of "core" performance metrics that Oracle recommends monitoring that gives a good baseline for performance of the application?
2) What are the options for capturing/gathering/saving these metrics for historical and trend analysis?

Excellent post. Thanks. Is there some sort of trial of the tool you guys built that's described in the post you linked?
"In addition to the out-of-the-box options above, here at RittmanMead we have developed our own OBIEE monitoring tool.
DMS metrics are stored directly on disk or through a database, enabling both immediate and retrospective analysis. Custom dashboards enable the display of both OBIEE and OS data side-by-side for ease of analysis. Integration with third-party tools is also an option."

Install Order EBS+OBIEE+OBIA+Informatica+DAC+Windows2003Server32Bit VMWare

PreScript : [rtm=done] But as the old Brazilian saying goes, "‘Na prática, a teoria è outra’" - In practice, the theory is different.
This involving EBS, I am posting here to get the assisatance I can't otherwise get at OBIEE/OBIA forum.
hi EBS experts out there
Please advise the order of installation of these s/w when i am planning to install EBS r12:
EBS R12 ( to integrate w/ OBIEE for vision demo database to be able to perform ETL tasks for R&D )
OBIEE 10.1.3.4
OBIA 7.9.6
Informatica 8.6.1 (w/ hotfix 6)
DAC 10.1.3.4.1
(Essbase Hyperion installation - I wil shortly try installing essbase 11x post successful installation of the above )
on windows 2003 server 32 bit sp2 that will be running on VMWare 2.0 hosted on windows xp 32 bit.
RAM: 4GB
HDDs: 200GB + 500 GB (Both IDE Internal SATA) Entire 500GB via virtual hard disk on VMware will be utilized to install this Oracle BI stack of apps and if possible install Hyperrion Essbase stuff also.
Specific asks
1.
Is Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) [2.6 MB size ] downloadable at
[http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=32bc1bee-a3f9-4c13-9c99-220b62a191ee&displaylang=en]
the required version ov VC++ required for EBS R12 win-32 install.
2.
Which oracle database (10g/11g) is shipped w/ EBS R12.
Can I utilize the same oracle database for creating Infa/DAC/OBAW users?
Or should I install another Oracle 11g db instance?
3.
Should I configure ActiveDirectory Services(to R&D LDAP authentication stuff)
install w2k3 server---> activeDirectory --> installtion of other apps (w/ administrator user), or
install w2k3->install apps -> then install ActiveDirectoryServices --> install Apps (w/ administrator user)
Any, heads-up/gotchas are HUGELY appreciated.
Ofcourse I will post my learnings along the way.

Hi,
RAM: 4GBI would suggest you increase the amount of memory on this box as 4 GB should be sufficient for Oracle E-Business Suite R12 installation only. So, with the remaining products, I would say you need more RAM -- I understand that running on 32-bit OS will not allow you to have more memory so you may need to consider installing another OS or having more than one virtual machine.

the required version ov VC++ required for EBS R12 win-32 install. Since you will be installing Oracle Apps R12 on singe node, you will have to have a Standard or Professional editions of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. Microsoft Visual C++ 2005/2008 Redistributable Package can be installed on the database tier node only if you have multi-node installation and you already have Standard or Professional editions of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 installed on the application tier node(s).

Which oracle database (10g/11g) is shipped w/ EBS R12.
Can I utilize the same oracle database for creating Infa/DAC/OBAW users?
Or should I install another Oracle 11g db instance?You cannot use the same Oracle E-Business Suite database as this is not supported, and you will need to install a separate database.

install w2k3 server---> activeDirectory --> installtion of other apps (w/ administrator user), or
