OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 Patch Issue

Hi folks,
I applied the latest OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patch earlier today. This was for a standalone instance and I didn't encounter any issues with the patching process itself. However, afterwards when I logged into Answers/Dashboard, the homepage looked very strange. The entire header component is missing, including the Oracle logo, the dropdown menus for dashboards, favorites, search text field, signout link etc. The Create section in the left pane is also empty. Everything else on this homepage looks fine. When I navigate to the catalog via the Browse/Manager section, the catalog comes up fine along with the previously missing header! So the header is only missing on the homepage.. Very wierd.
Would appreciate any hints on how to troubleshoot this.. Can I manually fix this is in one of the xml files? I'm hoping not to have to go back and re-do the patching!
thanks,
Axe

I think dhar is referring to the cleancat script to clean up the catalog binary cache. Here is the notes from the BP1 installation:
Clarification on the cleancat script: You may want to first navigate to the locations listed in the script to see if the files exist in your environment (they may not). If they do not exist, then you may scip running the patch. Additionally, the script may fail with an error. If that happens, go to the directories the script is trying to delete and delete them manually (if they exist).
P.S: I have manually deleted these files by navigating to the directories after installing the patches.
For Linux: cleancat.sh
================================
#!/bin/sh
# Cleanup catman binary cache
echo "Cleaning up Catalog Manager binary cache"
rm -rf $ORACLE_HOME/bifoundation/web/catalogmanager/configuration/org*
echo "Done"
For Windows: cleancat.cmd
================================
echo off
echo Cleaning up Catalog Manager binary cache
IF EXIST
%ORACLE_HOME%\bifoundation\web\catalogmanager\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi
rmdir /S /Q
%ORACLE_HOME%\bifoundation\web\catalogmanager\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi
IF EXIST
%ORACLE_HOME%\bifoundation\web\catalogmanager\configuration\org.eclipse.equino
x.app (
rmdir /S /Q
%ORACLE_HOME%\bifoundation\web\catalogmanager\configuration\org.eclipse.equino
x.app
echo Done
Thanks,

    Appreciate your help.

    Hello Lalitha,
    I found the reason:
    the scripts on the Desktop 5-for APS.sh and 6-for EAS.sh are not working correct.
    Immidiately after the scrips are done with there jobs to start the target components the just stated processes are killed due to the closing of the terminal windows.
    This seems to be an ugly bug.
    I'm using the folowing workaround:
    Just type an additional command right ater the ordinary call in the sh:
    "read dummy" (of course without the ")
    This makes the terminal window staying open (because waiting for your input) and thus keeps the processes running. But do not press enter ...
    There surely may be a more sensible way to accomplish this. However I'm not a linux guru.
    Is someone out there to give us a more robust idea?
    Regards
    Andre
    Followup:
    No, just realized for 5-StartEssbAPS.sh it is even worser:
    I have to:
    1. open an new terminal window,
    2. cd to the target directory: /home/oracle/epm/Middleware/user_projects/epmsystem1/bin
    3. and from there start the script: ./startAnalyticProviderServices.sh
    now the terminal windows remains open and the service alive.

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 SSO with AD not working on MAC OS 10.6.8

    Hi Experts,
    We have setup SSO in our production with OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 version and Active directory. All seems to work fine on all browsers. But on MAC OS 10.6.8 when we use Safari 5.1.7 it doesn't work. But when we use the application on MAC OS version 10.7.5 and safari version 6.0.1 and it is working fine. Can anyone please let me know if you have come across the scenario and the solution for this. In windows it works perfectly fine on all browsers. Only this version of MAC and Safari is giving us the trouble.
    Thanks in advance for any solution provided.

    JavaScript and Cookies are enabled.  my cookies list shows at least 3 associated with hulu.  Funny thing is, if I grab the up/down control bar on right side of screen with my mouse, then hulu plays in a somewhat chopped frame by frame. As soon as I let go, the frame freezes yet audio portion continues.
    I don't know what a munged Hulu cookie is, however.

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 not formatting properly to PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro

    We have upgraded to OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 and are using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. With Version 10 I was able to format reports that, when printed to PDF, maintained the report format such as repeating the column headings, font style and size, number of rows per page and column width. With this new version the only thing I can control appears to be the column width. No other format styles are recognized. I've tried custom CSS Style settings as well setting everything individually but to no avail. Any thoughts?

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 - Upgrade Assistant hangs

    Hi
    On a new obiee 11.1.1.6.2 BP1-installation i tried running the upgrade assistant to upgrade my obiee 10g repository/catalog. On a 11.1.1.6.0 testsystem this worked without problem.
    On the new system the upgrade assistant hangs in step 3 after configuring the source files and clicking next.
    Did someone discover any similar behaviour or has a solution to that problem?
    Thank you

    we have figured out the problem. It was due to the issue outlined in Oracle Doc Id 1410233.1. the upgrade agent may fail if the IP address is not set. When manually set the Listen addresses for the Admin and Managed servers in the WebLogic Console, and the Listen addresses for CoreApplication in EM, everything worked. ua.bat could not proceed until IP address manually specified in WebLogic console and EM as per Oracle Doc ID 1410233.1.

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 - Excel Export every 300 row corrupt

    Hi
    I'm facing an issue which looks like a bug. Some reports are corrupt after export to excel.
    When I remove all Header-Rows from this reports in excel then always row number 301, 601, 901... are concerned. In these rows the content of the first cells is deleted.
    Has anyone discovered the same error? Otherwise I have to open a call by oracle.
    Regards

    Hi folks,
    I've been the same problem to export table on excel.
    It's interesting, because it is a pattern of blank rows. For sure, it is a bug
    I looked for on supporte.oracle and found a patch "Download and apply patch 14013626 for OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 or OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2. The only operating system currently for this patch is 64-bit Windows.".
    However, this patch only works on 64-bit windows.
    Does someone know another way to fix this bug for linux?

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 64-Bit - Define MS Access Data Source

    Hi
    On our 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 64-Bit OBIEE installation I'd like to define an ms access db as data source. We had that in OBIEE 10G too but there it was an 32-Bit ODBC-Source.
    It seems that OBIEE 11G only accepts 64-Bit ODBC-sources. But for 64-ODBC there aren't any existing ms access drivers.
    Did anybody deal with the same problem and found a solution for it?
    Regards

    Hi,
    you download AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe and install it then you can able to find it excel data source in 64bit version. (we too faced this issues few years back and test with windows server 2008) working fine.

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 authentication through Shared Services EPM 11.1.2 .2

    Hi,
    Any idea how to get the authentication in OBIEE through Shared Services to work?
    We use Native Directory and MSAD in SS, hence we need to get the authentication through Shared Services.
    We were able to run this on EPM 11.1.1.3 through LDAP server of Shared services port 28089, surely not working now.
    I've tried both of the following but still no luck:

    Please help. Many thanks!!!
    Cheers,
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    I have not been through this, but hope this helps you though. While we run the System configurator Wizard (EPM 11.1.1.2), we are now having an option to integrate EPM with OBIEE. Have you given it a shot?
    I am just thinking, if we could had it configure for us, we could directly access the Subject Areas from OBIEE, just like what Mark had mentioned here : http://www.rittmanmead.com/2009/01/epm-workspace-111-and-obiee-10134-updated/
    You could further look into the "SSO using CSS Token" field in the connection pool, too.
    Hope this helps and I will let you know, if I have any other information.
    Thank you,

  • Analysis requirement OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to create an analysis to achieve the following.
    1.     Compare a Company sale with other companies’ sales (one or more). e.g. Let’s say Oracle’s sale is 2000 and Other Companies (Microsoft and SAP together) sale is 5000.
    2.     Compare a Company sale with the Industry sales. e.g. Let’s say Oracle’s sale is 2000 and the industry (Database Industry) is 50000.
    I need to show this information in the same analysis and I have a Company Dimension, Industry Dimension and a Sales Fact.
    I will have two prompts in the Dashboard one for to choose Company 1 and another one to choose multiple companies and/or the Industry. Since both companies are coming from the same dimension how to apply different filters? Also when I filter by Industry it should only filter values of the comparison measure (it should not filter the Sales measure of Company 1).
    Hope I explained it understandable, if not please let me know. Hope this image give you more clear vision.
