OBIEE 1.1.1.7 upgrade -silent install

Hi All,
I am installing OBIEE 1.1.1.7 as an upgrade from version 1.1.1.6 I have upgraded weblogic to version 10.3.6 and used psa.sh to upgrade both schemas,
I am now trying to run config.sh as a silent install with a response file. I just cant get it to work in with Oracle linix 6.3 it doesnt recognise my paths to WL or Oracle_BI, can a response file be used with a linux installation? Ive tried adding both ' quotes and " around the locations hoping the installer would take them as one string but still no luck,
See response file

Upgradation Steps from OBIEE 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.1.6

Hi friends,
Im following the below link for upgrading my obiee 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.1.5
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/bi.1111/e16452/bi_plan.htm#BABECJJH
In that they asked to follow the following 11 steps to accomplish, and those are
"Perform General Pre-Patching Tasks"
"Download the Installer"
"Applying the Latest Oracle Fusion Middleware Patch Set"
"Start the Installer"
"Verifying the Schema Version Number After Update"
"Upgrading System Components"
"Updating Fusion Middleware Shared Libraries"
"Updating Configurations and Stores"
"Starting and Stopping Oracle Business Intelligence"
"Updating Oracle Real-Time Decisions"
"Signing In to Oracle BI Enterprise Edition"In that while performing the first task *"Perform General Pre-Patching Tasks"*
They asked to follow the following pre-requisition
Section 3.5.1, "Reviewing System Requirement, Certification and Interoperability Information"
Section 3.5.2, "Stopping the Servers and Processes"
Section 3.5.3, "Backing Up Your Middleware Home, Domain Home and Oracle Instances"
Section 3.5.4, "Backing Up Your Database and Database Schemas"
Section 3.5.5, "Backing Up Additional Configuration Information"
Section 3.5.6, "Patching Oracle WebLogic Server"
Section 3.5.7, "Renaming the emCCR File for Silent Patching"In the above sections, i have a doubt in the Section 3.5.5, "Backing Up Additional Configuration Information"
They mentioned to *"Back Up Configurations and Stores"*
I can find the configuration file in the following location
Configuration Files
DOMAIN_HOME/config/jms
If a JMS uses file-system accessible stores, the default file-system store is either in a user-configured location that is specified in config.xml, or in the following location:
DOMAIN_HOME/servers/server_name/data/store/default
But my question is where does the Stores file is found inorder to take the back up.
Thanks in advance.
Brgds,
Mini

Hi,
i just application/policy file only...for your refer u can find the path under
D:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\bifoundation_domain\config\fmwconfig

Your Presentation services has crashed. If you are not running the latest OBIEE release you should try upgrading. Otherwise only Oracle Support will be able to help as this is an application crash.

Error while running a KPI Watchlist in obiee 11g dashboard

I am getting the following error while running a KPI Watchlist :
*" Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW) "*
I added two KPI's (KPI 1 & KPI 2)into that Watchlist , one from the default "Sample Sales Lite" (sub 1) and another from sub 2 which have essbase as data source .
KPI 1 (created from sub 1) is working fine , but while placing KPI 2 (created from sub 2 ) in the watchlist , its throwing the above error . However , while running KPI 2 individually , its showing meaningful results .
Let me know if the problem statement is not clear .
OBIEE version used : 11.1.1.5.0 .

Could anyone reply this thread. I am also getting the same error . Even server logs are also not helping.

OBIEE 11g - without going to Sawbridge first.....

If you called OBIEE via the default path: http://domain-name/analytics?NQuser=xxx&NQpassword=xxxx
instead of
http://domain-name/analytics/saw.dll?NQzuser=xxx&NQpassword=xxxx
would your credentials be checked by weblogic before the default login jsp has access to the request parameters or after?
Or does weblogic/OBIEE stop you passing parameters to the default URL?
What I'm trying to say is, if you go via the default domain without calling saw.dll first can you pass an encrypted password to your bespoke login.jsp (default.jsp) within the analytics domain and get this default.jsp
to convert the password to plain text and then this default.jsp calls (forwards) to saw.dll....

I have been trying to log in with my YouTube account name and password like usual. I just tried using my gmail log in and it works. Did they merge or something? It was working yesterday just fine without me changing the way I logged in. Either way, thanks for the help! Works great now

Error while creating Bi presentation service in obiee(11.1.1.3)

Hi,
Im using Jdeveloper(11.1.1.5) and OBIEE(11.1.1.3)
I created a ADF application in Jdev and when I try to create a BI presentation services I'm getting the following error message.
*Connection attempt failed.*
*java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to retrieve logon token. This version requires a BI build that implements the version 7 SOAP interface. Please verify that you are using the correct BI version.*
does the creation of presentation service in jdev(11.1.15) work only with OBIEE(11.1.1.5) and not OBIEE(11.1.1.3).
please help!
Thanks,
Venky

Venky,
The SOAP interface released with OBIEE 11.1.1.3 is version 6 (v6) as you can see from its WSDL URL.
This would leave one only to believe that the SOAP interface released with OBIEE 11.1.1.5 is version 7.

How to embed user credentials in Secured Web Service from OBIEE 11gFMW?

I am trying to invoke a webservice that I successfully exposed as a WSDL Web Service using EBS Integrated SOA Gateway. I am using OBIEE 11g Action Framework which uses WebLogic.
Here are the steps I completed:
- I exposed a WSDL web service in EBS R12 via Integrated SOA Gateway
- I granted the access to this service in EBS R12 to user SYSADMIN
- I used OBIEE 11g to make a Action to call the Web service (using Action Framework) by searching for the WSDL
- When I try to execute the action: I get the error:
Action could not be invoked.
ServiceExecutionFailure :
Error invoking web service HR_PHONE_API_Service at endpoint http://ip-10-87-33-3.ec2.internal:8000/webservices/SOAProvider/plsql/hr_phone_api/ Missing <wsse:Security> in SOAP Header
PROBLEM: I am unsure how to add the credentials for SYSADMIN user and password to add the SOAP username/pwd to the outgoing call. According to the documentation in the Integrators guide, FMW Security guide, and Web Logic guides..seems we have to configure the SOAP call to have the proper credentials. The documentation is not very clear on exactly how to do this. I tried to set up the credential store and an account in ActionFrameWorkConfig.xml but I am still missing something. I am logged into OBIEE as biadmin and I am trying to call a webservie in EBS that is granted to SYSADMIN/sysadmin user. Pls advise.

Date Variable in Obiee 11g

Hi All,
I have created a dynamic repository variable that gives the current date. The date is given in the following format 'MM/DD/YYYY'. This is format that I want the date to appear in. In the presentation catalog, I have created a presentation variable dashboard promt called StartDate, that defaults to the repository variable CurrentDate. I have also created a report that has a number of measures filtered in different ways. If we take one of the measures in the report, what I have done is edited the formula to filter the measure by reported_date>Date'@{StartDate}'.
Now when I got and see my dashboard I get an error, 'Datetime value 06/07/2011 from 06/07/2011 does not match the specified format'. However when I click 'Apply' on the prompt, the error does not appear and it just says that there is no data for this report.
Can someone please help me solve this problem?
Thanks,
Nikita

I solved this issue by using steps listed here http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/cast_as_date.
Thanks

Hi ,
I normally do this to fix this problem
1>Disable the network , keep the loopback adaptor enabled and then restart the services.
2> You can enable the network after services are restarted.
If you want a more practical solution and dont want to disable network again and again, then you would find the blog below useful.
