OBIEE 11g and Weblogic on different Servers - Windows 2008 R2

Hi
Can we install OBIEE 11g(BI Server and Presentation Servers) on one server and weblogic and another server. We have a requirement where we need to differentiate all the components on to its own server for performance reasons. How can we do the configurations if we have installed on how to talk to weblogic after the installations.
Thanks

Yes we can do that
a) Install BIS and BIPS on one server and deploy BIPS plug-in on Weblogic server where it is installed,so the both will talk with the weblogic server.

OBIEE 11g and Weblogic on different Servers

Hi every
Can we install OBIEE 11g on one server and weblogic and another server?
How to indicate in obi configuration, that weblogic is on another server?
Is there a manual or link that prove it?
I appreciate your prompt replies

Install BIServer and BIPresentaionServer on one server and deploy BIPS plug-in on Weblogic server where it is installed,so the both will talk with the weblogic server.

OBIEE 11G server not coming up after window username got chnged

Hi,
We have installed OBIEE 11g and was working fine. But, now the window username of the machine got changed and the BI server is not coming up. Do we need to re-install it or any workaround for this issue.
Thanks,
Anilesh

Which service you are not able to start? Is it weblogic or bi services like bi server, PS server etc..
Have you tried to start weblogic manually by running Startweblogic.cmd and able to open WLS console?

Obiee 11g and custom j2ee app using the same cookie name

Hi,
I wrote a same j2ee web application. i'am using authentification through a realm configured in the web.xml.
This web app is deployed in the same weblogic than obiee 11g. What i want to do is to embed my application in a dashboard using an iframe tag, and use the same login from analytics to my custom web app.
In this article http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11035_01/wls100/security/thin_client.html#wp1039551, it is said that by default, all web apps in the sames weblogic server are using the same cookie name so that they share authentification between them. However, i have read in the web that analytics in obiee 11g is using a cookie with the name "ORA_BIPS_NQID".
In the weblogic.xml of my custom application, i set the cookie-name parameter to ORA_BIPS_NQID. However, in the dashbord, it still prompt for authentification to my custom web app.
How can we share authentification between analytics and a custom web app in the same weblogic ?
NB : I dont want to pass the username et password through the url.
Thanks.

By default, if you don't specify a cookie-name in the weblogic.xml configuration file, the weblogic server create a cookie named JSESSIONID for your application. For exemple, if two applications use the default configuration, both of them will use the same cookie name which is JSESSIONID. In this case, when you log in the first application, your are automaticaly logged in the second application with the same credentials. I have already test this kind of integration and it works perfectly. You only need that the two applications are deployed in the same weblogic server.
Now, i want to have the same behaviour between obiee 11g and my custom application deployed in the same weblogic server. I read somewhere in the web that obiee 11g presentation service (analytics) is configured with a cookie-name value = "ORA_BIPS_NQID". So in the weblogic.xml configuration file of my web app, i specify a cookie-name value = "ORA_BIPS_NQID" to have the same cookie-name between the two application. But, it still not work. It prompt for authentification in the dashboards.
I now, that such an integration is possible, because the other bi applications (mapviewer, bipublisher,...) are actually other web applications. However when using, for exemple, maps in dashbords, the mapviwer application automaticaly user the credentials of the user connected in analytics.

ESB and BPEL in different servers

Hi ,
Is there any performance based advantage when we have BPEL and ESB in different servers ?

If you seperate them, it will have impacht on the perfromance. Services are called over the network, assuming BPEL and ESB are on different servers. Otherwise they can call each other via native binding if ESB and BPEL are in the server and container.

10g: HTTP Server and OC4J on different servers?

Can anyone assist with configuring HTTP Server and OC4J on different servers?
I installed AS 10g on both; our application runs fine on one server, with the HTTP Server and OC4J both on the same box.
I need to also test this with the HTTP Server on a separate box.
I added this to mod_ocj4.conf:
Oc4jMount /indox-qa1
instance://cvodev2:oas_dev2.cvodev2.int.sys.com:indox-qa1
Oc4jMount /indox-qa1/*
instance://cvodev2:oas_dev2.cvodev2.int.sys.com:indox-qa1
But when I try to access something like http://cvodev4/indox-qa1 I get this in the logs:
[Wed Jul 06 16:54:10 2005] [warn] [client 10.1.1.231] [ecid: 1120683250:192.152.136.127:1248:1544:1,0] MOD_OC4J_0184: Failed to find an oc4j process for destination: instance://cvodev2.int.camsys.com:oas_dev2.cvodev2.int.camsys.com:indor-qa1

I did some ethernet sniffing and it doesn't look to me like the OHS box is even trying to contact the OC4J box.
Is there more configuration I need to do beyond this?

ADS in ABAP and JAVA on different servers

Dear community,
I need to run ADS with ABAP and JAVA on different servers but after read and apply every step on The ADS Configuration Guide, still getting doubts and problems. Those steps work succesfully on a server with ABAP+JAVA on same server. Those are the problems:
When I perform the report test FP_TEST_00 i get this error:
ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: Problem accessing d(200101)
I haven't found a a detailed procedure to set on ABAP and JAVA on different servers...
Do you know any procedure to set this scenario??
As a result, I don't know which role i must assign to adsuser on Java UME because i did not found any SAP_ADSCALLER role as i have ridden on some forums or blogs...
I try to set ADS on ABAP+JAVA on different servers by this official guides:
The ADS Configuration Guide:

HI again,
ADS_AGENT now has sap_all but still same problem:
Creating or Changing the Destination Service, On Visual Administrator/Destinations/HTTP/ FP_ICF_DATA_<SID>
When I set the URL http://<hostname>:<HTTP_port> i am getting error Received HTTP response 502
- If I paste the http://<hostname>:<HTTP_port> +
- Enter the appropriate client number of the system, where the service user ADS_AGENT exists into the client field. Keep the other fields System ID and Language empty +

But if I paste on Explorer http://<hostname>:<HTTP_port>/sap/bc/fp/form/layout/fp_test_00.xdp, request User (ADS_AGENT) +Pwd and work ok, so error only appears by Visual Administrator...
Anybody knows how can resolve this doubt?
Thanks in advance

Installing Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5 and PhotoShop 5.5 on windows 2008 R2 SP1 using Terminal services

Hi All,
Is it possible to install Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5 and PhotoShop 5.5 on windows 2008 R2 SP1 using Terminal services. We are planning to use xenapp to publish these application.
Please let me know if this is a supported environment.
Regards
Radhika

As far as I know you will NOT be able to access OpenGL functionality through Terminal Services. as the OpenGL implementation provided in that environment is software, version 1.1 - not GPU-accelerated.
I seem to recall there was a thread about a year ago here where someone was trying to do what you are asking. I vaguely remember they were able to make it work, but I'm not sure. You might try doing a search of this forum.

Mapping Roles/Groups between OBIEE 11g and Oracle EBS R12

Hi,
We are implementing OBIEE 11g with Oracle EBS R12 as source system. Also we are using Out of the box RPD for Oracle EBS R12.
But we are facing lot of challenges to map OBIEE 11g groups and EBS roles and responsibilities. We do not have prior experience with EBS as source system.
Can anyone tell how to map between obiee groups with Oracle E-Business suit R12
Is there any document link or notes regarding this.
Any help regarding this will really save us.
Thanks in advance

Please read:
Integrating with EBS Suite Security: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/bi.1111/e16364/ebs_actions.htm#BIEIT1321
As I understand you need to create a Connection Pool to your EBS database. I think that would be a serious security aspect for the integration to work over two different networks. But I don't think it's impossible.
Domain Prerequisites is another challenge in this scenario.
More specifically: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/bi.1111/e16364/ebs_actions.htm#CHDHCAFD

Seperate OBIEE installation and Weblogic Installation

Hi,
Our requirement is to setup the HA system in the Production for the OBIEE. We have Admin server as active-passive on the 2 OBIEE instances.
We trying to setup the high availability of the Admin server as per the Oracle Enterprise Deployment guide. If I setup that and manually failover the Admin server the user cannot login if the Admin server is migrated to second application server.
So our next option is to install the weblogic on the NAS shared storage and scale out the OBIEE components on the 2nd Application server so that Active-Passive Admin server can access the same settings on the shared storage. So the question is it possible to separate the weblogic and OBIEE installation directories separately in order to achieve high availability.
Thanks:
Apurv.

The URL will be exactly the same as a Windows installation but will have your Unix server name. You will need to learn how to start and stop the OBIEE services and OC4J in Unix. This is pretty well documented on the Infrastructure Installation and Configuration Guide.

FLV Playback and Seekbar on different native windows in one Air application

Hello Everyone. I'm trying to make a simple video playback AIR application that utilizes the initial native window to house a transport control with a seekbar on it. Once the application launches, it creates a second (new) window on my second screen and places a FLVPlayback instance on that new window. Everything works just like it want it to except for one thing. When the seekbar and FLVplayback instance are not located on the same window stage, the seekbar handle sticks to the mouse when trying to scrub through the video.
I've added both the transport control and the FLVPlayback instance to the original native window as children and I have also added both of them to the new window as children and everything works just fine. It's only when they are separated and located on different stages that the seekbar acts up. When they are on the same stage, I can click on a point on the seekbar and the video jumps to that spot and continues to play and I can also scrub the seekbar, the video updates as I scrub, and when I release the mouse, the seekbar handle stays where I released the mouse. When they on separate stages, the seekbar handle continues to follow the mouse movement without releasing it. The video updates as the seekbar handle is moved due to it sticking to the mouse, but if I release the mouse, the handle is still moving with the mouse and the video is still being scrubbed. Like I said, everything works great except for this and I have reached my limit with time spent on this issue. Does anyone have any insight into this?
Here's my code for the project. This is my first AIR application, so I am coding it as I am learning, please be kind.

Essbase as a source in OBIEE 11g and using lookup to Relation database

Hello All,
We are trying to implement Essbase as primary source for our obiee 11g repository and using relational database as secondary source of data.
I was using a lookup functionality in repository to lookup value from one of the Essbase's Dimension's attribute to relational database, however, there is error when testing this in OBIEE Dashboards.
And tried to look this error in support.oracle and googled it but was not able to find anything on it.
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 43119] Query Failed: [nQSError: 46008] Internal error: File server\Query\Src\SQLookupUtility.cpp, line 145. (HY000)
Have you had any such issue and how can we pass this issue?
I am trying to find if there are any quick resolution before going to oracle support.
TIA.

Is Essbase 11.1.1.3 supported as a source for OBIEE 11g?From the certification matrix (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/bi-11gr1certmatrix-166168.xls) we can see that only Essbase 9.3.3+ and 11.1.2+ are supported, not 11.1.1.3

OBIEE 11g and SSO with Browser Cookie

In OBIEE 10g we were able to configure the Presentation Server to accept a browser cookie. The cookie value would be passed to the BI Server as the :USER variable. A BI Server Repository Initialization Block would execute a SQL SELECT statement which would return the PeopleSoft username based on the cookie value.
We added the following to the 10g instanceconfig.xml:
<CredentialStore>
<CredentialStorage type="file" path="D:\oracle\OBIEE_UD\Data\web\config\credentialstore.xml" passphrase="another_secret" />
</CredentialStore>
<Auth>
<SSO enabled="true">
<ParamList>
<Param name="IMPERSONATE" source="cookie" nameInSource="PS_TOKEN"/>
</ParamList>
</SSO>
</Auth>
The Initialization Block SQL is:
SELECT mGetTokenUserid(':USER') FROM DUAL
mGetTokenUserid is a PL/SQL function which invokes a PeopleSoft web service. The web service simply returns the username for a valid PS_TOKEN cookie.
The Initialization Block works fine in OBIEE 11g.
Unfortunately the instanceconfig.xml settings from 10g do not work in 11g. There is also nothing in the OBIEE 11g documentation which discusses how to tell the system to use a specific cookie value for authentication.
Any guidance as to where in the Fusion Middleware or WebLogic security documentation we might find details on how to get the system to pass the PS_TOKEN cookie to the BI Server in 11g?
Thanks,

Not a full answer but....
, WebLogic can accept third party tokens as defined here:
