    Try fully restart (below procedure for OBIEE "Simple" installation on Linux)
    Stop
    1) Stop OBIEE processes (C++ components) : [MiddlewareHome]/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl stopall     
    2) Stop Weblogic : [MiddlewareHome]/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/stopWebLogic.sh     
    3) Confirm that Weblogic is not running: ps aux | grep java
    4) Optionaly if Weblogic process still running: kill -9 procesID
    Start
    5) Start OBIEE Services (C++ components): nohup [MiddlewareHome]/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/startWebLogic.sh
    6) Close putty session and wait until Weblogic is up. -> you can check it in user home: e.g. /home/obi/nohup.out : log should end with : <Server state changed to RUNNING> <Server started in RUNNING mode>
    7) Start OBIEE (C++) processes : [MiddlewareHome]/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl startall
    8) [MiddlewareHome]/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl status -l     Verify that all processes are running

  • OBIEE 11g Refresh GUIDs for Presentation Services

    Hi Friends,
    I am facing problem while trying to refresh the GUIDs for the Presentation services during migration from DEV to QA
    When I migrated RPD and Catalog from DEV to QA, the user weblogic was not able to login. So I modified the NQSConfig.INI file to make the below change
    FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = YES*
    and restarted the BI Servers. Now weblogic is able to login. So far good.
    But When I login using weblogic and open 'My Dashboard' I get the following error access denied for user to path /users/weblogic/_portal/dashboard layout*
    Reading the Oracle Documentation I see that the refresh of GUIDs need to be done for Presentation services as well. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10543/privileges.htm#CHDHGAAH
    However I am not able to find *<ps:Catalog>* in the Instanceconfig.xml file. I can only see a similar one like below
    *<Catalog>*
    *<UpgradeAndExit>false</UpgradeAndExit>*
    *</Catalog>*
    Where should I add the below? I went ahead and put it just below the above. So that my file looks like below. Is this correct?
    *<Catalog>*
    *<UpgradeAndExit>false</UpgradeAndExit>*
    *</Catalog>*
    *<ps:Catalog xmlns:ps="oracle.bi.presentation.services/config/v1.1">*
    *<ps:UpgradeAndExit>false</ps:UpgradeAndExit>*
    *<ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>UpdateAndExit</ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>*
    *</ps:Catalog>*
    After saving the instanceconfig.xml , I used opmnctl to stop the Pre.Ser. Stop was successful But I am not able to start the ps. Why is that? Is it a problem with my new entry in Instanceconfig.xml?
    Checking the log files, clearly says its the content of instanceconfig.xml causing the issue.
    ----Log entry--
    [Util Logger] Exception occurred:

    Hi,
    i hope u r version You don't need the ps: part either
    If your using obiee11.1.1.3. the instansconfig.xml file it will show like this (ps: part either ) and obiee11.1.1.5. no more that ps: part in the instanceconfig.xml file
    *<UpgradeAndExit>false<UpgradeAndExit>*
    *<UpdateAccountGUIDs>UpdateAndExit<UpdateAccountGUIDs>*
    then
    set it to *<UpdateAccountGUIDs>none</UpdateAccountGUIDs>* and then restart the services
    Refer obiee11.1.1.3.0 version of guide...all r similar except ps: part.

  • OBIEE: Skip separate login for Presentation services

    All,
    I wanted to use my LAN ID login for my BI Presentation services instead of having separate login screen there.
    Meaning if i click on my BI Presentation services link it shouldn't ask for a separate login id /password it should receive my LAN id/password directly from the system & as i click the link i should be able to get the Dashboards according to my access rights.
    As of now i am using OBIEE only in my local.
    I am using 10g.
    Please provide Ur valuable answers at the earliest.
    Regards
    FR

    Hi FR
    You need to look into Single Sign On (SSO). Have a read of this and do some google searching:

  • 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!

    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.

  • OBIEE 11G - Unable to login to presentation services

    Hi All,
    I have done a simple installation of OBIEE 11G on my coloud server with OS windows server 2003, SP2 , 32 bit.
    Installation is 88% completed with,
    Executing : opmnctl start coreapplication_obiccs1 and Executing: opmnctl start coreapplication_obips1 failed. Came to know that this is related to clusters and ignored the error.
    RCU is installed in different database server.
    Now i am trying to login to presentation services with weblogic as userid and password that i had given during installation of obi.
    I am getting error that userid or password is invalid...
    One thing i came to know from the thread OBIEE 11g Cluster Controller Failed to start is,
    i have a bad IP in /etc/hosts... below are the entries in the file... can anyone please tell me what necessary changes i should do?

  • Error in deploying OBIEE 10.1.3.4.2 BI Presentation Service on WAS6.1

    Hi,
    I am working on environment setup using OBIEE suite version 10.1.3.4.2 on a UNIX (AIX6.1 platform) system (which is a remote machine for me).
    Installation of OBIEE 10g suite (all components) on AIX server is completed, and ever the BI server and BI Presentation Server (PS) services are running on the system.
    IBM WAS6.1 is being used as the web application server to connect to BI presentation server from my local desktop (windows 7 platform).
    Both BI PS and WAS6.1 are installed on the same AIX system. Hence, the OBIEE_HOME/web/app/WEB-INF/web.xml file has host name as localhost and port number as 9710.
    I am facing issue in configuring the WAS6.1 to support the BI Presentation services. Steps involved in the config are –
    1. Deploy the analytics.war file from OBIEE_HOME/web/ using 'Install new enterprise application' option on WAS6.1 admin console.
    2. Context root provided is /analytics
    3. Start WAS Application server
    4. Start OBI Presentation server
    5. Access URL: http://nameserver:port/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard – this is the test url provided in OBI documentation.
    nameserver is the host name of the AIX server on which both BI PS and WAS6.1 are installed
    Port - this is the HTTP port provided in the configuration details of WAS6.1 profile. ( I am not using 9710 in the url, if that is used, HTTP 404 - address not found error is generated.)
    For step 5 above, I am getting HTTP 500 error while trying to access this URL.
    Error message in SystemOut.log file in WAS6.1_Profile_home/logs/server1/ is as below.
    Can anyone please help in understanding and resolution of this error as well as configuration of BI PS. Thanks.

    Hi Dhar,
    thanks for a quick reply...
    Yes even I thought it is reaching the PS, as the error log mentions error with 'SAWbridge'... but I am not sure how to debug further.
    If it helps, below is a output of checking if the PS is running on the server. But I am not sure if the PS continues runnning once the service is started.
    $ ps -ef | grep sawserver

  • OBIEE 11g Active Directory Presentation Service Error retrieving user

    Hi Team,
    It was a great help from all of you on our OBIEE learnings.
    I recently configured Microsoft AD on Weblogic rather than RPD. But felt like I am in a desert of helplessness due to the complicated and lengthy documents and settings :(
    Still when I configured everything and logged in to presentation services using AD Credentials, observed following error!
    Error retrieving user/group data from Oracle BI Server's User Population API.

    You need a user to be present in your Active Directory Base DN that will be used as the BISystemUser. You will either have to create this user in AD or use an existing AD user and then specify its credentials in Enterprise Manager (expand Weblogic Domain > bifoundation_domain (right click) > Security > Credentials). You will need to set system.user credential under oracle.bi.system map. Make sure your AD user's password never expires or you will run into problems in a few weeks time!

  • Cannot Start Presentation Services - OBIEE 11g( 11.1.1.5)

    Hi, I recently upgraded BIApps RPD and Web Catalog.

    I verified all the log file and also we didn't modify any config files after upgrade.
    I Just restarted the presentation services from EM and everything is running fine now.
