OBIEE 11g upgrade wizard & installation on linux 64bit

Hi,
Is it that on Linux 64 bit machine, i should install OBIEE 11g in "Software Only" mode, only then upgrade wizard works correctly, if i need to do "Software Only" should i be installing weblogic server independently? or at high level what are steps to be followed.
Thanks,
Sree

Hi Sree,
What you are mentioning here is relevant for Windows 64 bits environment where you have to install the software only after installing web logic standalone.
The installer for Linux 64bit will install all the components for you except of course the RCU that you need to downlaod and install first.
Please refer to this link for more details about the installation
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10539/c4_installing.htm#CIHDJGIH
NB: Devlopement tools (Admin tool or catalog manager..) don't exisit for Linux, so you have to use windows for development

OBIEE 11g Software only installation on Linux-64

Hi All,
I have installed Weblogic10.3 on linux-64 system and then installed OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 software only installation in the same middleware(as cerated by weblogic)on the same linux-64 system.

How to get this Instance folder?
Do i need to do any more configuration ?

Should I change this URL and point it to actual IP.

Obiee 11g upgrade issue for date format

Hi,
I am facing a date format issue with obiee 11g report. This statement cast(cast(current_date as char) as timestamp) is failing with "not a valid month" error in obiee 11g. This worked fine with obiee 10g.
I am basically trying to set the date to 12:00:00 am of the sysdate. Below is what I am trying to achieve:
timestampadd(sql_tsi_hour, 1, cast(cast(current_date as char) as timestamp)))
the above statement fails in obiee 11g.
Thanks for your help,
AP

I dont think you need any functions to get the required output, try to set the date format as below
[FMT:timeStampShort]
If helps mark
Thanks
Edited by: Srini VEERAVALLI on Apr 23, 2013 4:18 PM
I think with format and then the below should work with no issues.
timestampadd(sql_tsi_hour, 1,current_date)
I think you are wasting time by posting here, just do it. You no need any ones permissions to do it ;)

Benefits of the 64bit Version of OBIEE 11g?

Hello,
I am in the process of verifying if the 32bit or the 64 bit Version of OBIEE 11g would suit our needs. The platform we will install OBIEE would be windows.
As far as the certifications go the 32bit Version of OBIEE is certified on the 32bit Versions of windows, so if we want to run a *certified* combination on a 64bit OS the 64bit version would be the way to go. OUI however doesn't complain when installing the 32bit Version on a 64bit OS.
As far as the Windows Server versions go there is no 32bit Version available anymore for future releases (starting with server 2008 R2), so in the future the (certified) way to go would be 64bit. However, for the sake of argument let's assume we are staying on Server 2008 where a 32bit version is still available.
I've found a lot of blog posts on how great OBIEE 11g is, and if one has the chance one should go for the 64bit version. That's nice, but I am missing the +whys+ and certainly the +buts+. Also, the oracle documentation (Oracle&#174; Fusion Middleware System Requirements and Specifications) tells me the requirements for both architectures, but most certainly not when to use the 64bit version, and when a 32bit installation still will suit my needs.
The main reason for me to go for a 64bit version would be if we would have a huge amount of concurrent user sessions where of course the 32bit version will be constrainted by the Memory Limit imposed by the 32bit architecture. I guess the types of reports etc. might also come into play when it boils down to memory.
As for now I've installed the 64bit and the 32bit Version (11.1.1.7) and the first thing I can observe is that weblogic consumes double the memory on the 64bit version even with no user session connected and nothing to do for OBIEE whatsoever. So for a small installation (say ~ 20 concurrent sessions) I am tempted not to go for the general advice from above to "use the 64bit version if you can" as it's highly oversized.
Are there any other drawbacks in using the 32bit Version of OBIEE 11g for small installations (besides the certification question, and the "one day you might have more users" reason)? And when would it be advisable to go for 64bit? I know a general "do X when you have Y sessions" is not possible as every sytem behaves different, so I understand that a general answer isn't possible. But personal experiences would be helpful
thanks in advance,
cheers

I have recently used the iLife bundle to process footage on the 3rd birthday party of my friends' son (my first production). I used iMovie to edit the footage, added audio tracks from iTunes, dropped a few photos from iPhoto on the drop zones of iDVD, added a slideshow to the project as well. Boy, my friends were amazed when I played the DVD before them (they were not mac users).
With such limited effort one need to spend on it (time and money), the output iLife gives is, what Jobs likes to say in keynote, phenomenal.

OBIEE 11g on Windows 7 64 bit - Error while configuring????

Hi Experts,
I am installing OBIEE 11g on Windows 7 64 bit. And I followed below steps:
1. Installed JDK 64 bit.
2. Installed Weblogic Server with 64 bit JDK.
3. Installed OBIEE 11g - Software only Installation.
4. Ran configuration script. cofig.bat.
5. Configuration Wizard opened and during the configuration process(step 10 of 11) got an error. Refer below screen shot for the error.
6. I got the same error when I tried installing 11g on Win server 2003 32 bit and I installed JRocket MissionControl and reinstalled 11g and there are no errors.
7. So, remembering that I installed JRocket Mission Control 64 bit.
8. Un installed previous 11g.
9. Reinstalled 11g on Windows 7 64 bit.
10 And coming to configuration part it gave same error. Don't know what to do.............can any one help me at this point.

Any idea how to solve the problem?
Thanks

Try putting the tnsnames.ora of your local db client in the following directory: <obi 11g install dir>\Oracle_BI1\network\admin. Looks like OBI11g comes with an Oracle client install or something.

BI Publisher in OBIEE 11G

Hi
I have few doubts in regard to BI Publisher in OBIEE 11G. Here they goes
1) Is it required to install BI Publisher separately or is it already provided integrated in fusion middleware in OBIEE 11G.
2) What is the process to integrate BI Publisher with OBIEE 11G.
Please help by providing answers to the above queries.
Thanks.

user8654742 wrote:
1) Is it required to install BI Publisher separately or is it already provided integrated in fusion middleware in OBIEE 11G.BI publisher installs on your machine by default with the installation of OBIEE 11g. You will not need to install or do any extra configurations.
2) What is the process to integrate BI Publisher with OBIEE 11G.As far as the OBIEE 11g Integration with BI Publisher 11g, it comes with basic integration like navigation to BI publisher form OBIEE analytics. Share the same security model etc. If you can elaborate your question here, it would help me answer it correctly.

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/
