OBIEE Access through Smart View

I am trying to setup OBIEE Access through Smart View . I have done the
following:
Private Connection:
From Smart View ribbon, click Panel.
Select
Private Connection.
Press the right arrow and Create New Connection.
Select Oracle BI EE.
In my case http://adc-obi0200-gse.oracledemos.com:9704/analytics/jbips
I get the message unable to connect to provider.
Any ideas what the issue may be?

The supported Smart View release compatible with OBIEE 11.1.1.7.0 is 11.1.2.5.000, 11.1.2.3.000, though I would recommend you use 11.1.2.5.000
For more information you can check Doc ID 1923582.1
Thanks

Can't load data through smart view (ad hoc analysis)

Hi,
There is EPM application where I want to give ability to planners to load data through smart view (ad hoc analysis). In Shared Services there are four options in
EssbaseCluster-1: Administrator, Create/Delete Application, Server Access, Provisioning Manager. Only Administrator can submit data in smart view (ad-hoc analysis). But I don't want to grant Essbase administrator to planners, I'm just interested to give them ability to load data through ad-hoc analysis. Please suggest!

I take that you refreshed the Planning security, If not refresh the security of those users. Managing Security Filters
Check in EAS whether those filters are created with "Write" permissions.

Reg Normal Read Privilege Users on Essbase through Smart View

Dear Experts,
I have a typical problem today....Am able to access the Essbase through Essbase Administrator Privileges using Smart View
Similarily, when i provide only Read only access to the "X" named user, it says Operation is not permitted under your APS user account privilleges
I remember this, earlier it was working fine for the user which has read privilege
Moreover, from HSS point of view, do we need to assign any role pertaining to "APS Application Group" to the normal user?
But i was not seeing anything for the administrator which is working and even am not able to see the provider services
application group when we try to do the privisioning... Able to see the provider services registered with Shared Services
Please let me know your suggestions....
Thanks,

Dear Experts,
Any Clues on this issue which am facing on Smart View??

Access Issue Smart View

Hi all,
Few user in our company are having hard time opening Data forms in Smart View. When they try to open the forms they get an following Error:
The data Form XXXX Is invalid.Check Log for details. (where XXXX is the name of form).
I have tried following steps to fix the problem but was unable to do it:
Created a Native ID and assigned it similar access as these Users had and was able to open the forms successfully via Smart View using this ID.
The important thing is these users are from differnt groups and have access to different applications but the provision to all the group is same.
There are other User in the same groups who are able to open the forms successfully and have same provision as the users that are facing the issue.
I also tried to pull these users out of the group and provision them with the access they were having from group but after setting this up they had same error while opening the form.
There is no problem with the istallation of Smart View on their local machine as they are able to login via Native User login i created.
It would be great help if anybody could suggest a way to Fix this issue.
Thanks In advance!!

Hi Abhishek,
I have not provided the access to the remaining dimensions. That is why it is showing as the No Access.
Thanks for the help.

Intermittent errors when retrieving through smart view (11.1.2.5.210) in Oracle 11.1.2.3.500

We are getting the below errors when retrieving from huge smart view sheets for couple of our applications. We have increased the time out settings from the local registry, server registry, mod_wl_ohs file, Web logic console, http.conf, Essbase.properties. Also, increased the JVM from opmn.xml & setCustomParamsAnalyticProviderServices.bat. However we still face the error.
Note: this is an intermittent error and does not happen all the time.
Cannot connect to the provider. Make sure it is running in the specified host/port. Error(12152).
Cannot connect to the provider. Make sure it is running in the specified host/port. Error(12031).
Also, we are facing retrieval performance issues after we upgraded to 11.1.2.3.500 after we migrated from 11.1.1.3.500. Has anyone faced this issue? if so, any suggestions in improving the retrieval performance (especially with MDX member formulas in ASO applications) in 11.1.2.3.500 version?
Smart view version: 11.1.2.5.210

Is there a load balancer being used?
Does the issue common on both Shared and Private connection?
Smartview client
     A)    add a essbase.cfg to the client machine in smartview\bin
             the file will have 3 entries
            NETDELAY 2000
            NETRETRYCOUNT 2000
            NETTCPCONNECTRETRYCOUNT 200
You can give it a try on a single client machine and check is the result is improved.

Hyperion Smart View error

Hi
When i connect to essbase cube through smart view,when i click on refresh, i am getting an error says "Internal error occured".
please suggest what could be the issue,
for smartview query designer to work, do i have to install essbase client also?
Thanks,

Hi,
You don't need to install the essbase client to use Query Designer in Smart View.
I don't think you've supplied enough information for us to offer suggestions on the error. https://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=1184

Unable to access Smart View 11.1.2.5.216 within Outlook 2007

All,
I uninstalled Smart View 11.1.1.3.x from my MS Windows 7 (x32) Professional SP1 machine and installed Smart View 11.1.2.5.216 during the same session (ie, without rebooting).
While SmartView comes up perfectly fine when I access Excel, Word and PowerPoint and I can connect to the various 11.1.2.3.00 EPM data sources, I cannot see the Smart View ribbon under MS Outlook. This is in spite of:
- having changed my MS Office 2007 installation to run Visual Basic Scripting Support on my PC for MS Outlook 2007 only (ie, via Control Panel > Programs and Features > MS Office Standard 2007 > Change > Add or Remove Features);
- deleting the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Hyperion Solutions key and underlying sub-keys, after uninstalling 11.1.1.3 and before installing 11.1.2.5.216
There are no disabled COM add-ins displayed under MS Outlook 2007 and there were no further Hyperion-related entries (ie, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Hyperion.CommonAddin) to amend\delete under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\AddIns. Moreover, I searched but could not find the Smart View PST file on my machine.
Would anyone have any suggestions as to where else I could be looking and\or what else I could be doing to enable Smart View under MS Outlook 2007?
Thanks in advance.
JBM

Hi JBM,
Yeah for SmartView in outlook it does need PST file and on installation it created it automatically.
Could you try adding smartview addin in outlook,
and browse hsaddin.dll and hstbar.xla which are smartview required files.hstbar.xla in mandate one. do try this. if it doesn't work then i would suggest you to try uninstalling SmartView
reboot your machine
open cmd prompt with admin rights and navigate to the path where smartview executable is present and launch it through cmd prompt , it would install smartview with full admin rights and solve most of the issues.
Thanks

How to connect Smart Views against BIC2G OBIEE+ Analysis services

I am trying to run Hyperion Smart View 9.3.1.2.041 against OBIEE+ demo package BIC2G:EE+ v10.1.3.3.2-9.3.1-7.9.5 but I can’t get the connection to work.
The documentation or the package BIC2G:EE+ v10.1.3.3.2-9.3.1-7.9.5 does contain errors that makes it hard to set up and I have not found any useful documentation how to circumvent the "Unable to connect to the provider" message that I get during connection.

Good day!
Try to start the service (Hyperion Provider Services - Web Application). If it doesn't work, try to stop it and start it again.
I had this problem before.
Cheers!

Studio Drill-Through Works in Excel Add-In but not Smart View

So I have a drill-through defined that works fine in the Excel Add-In. But, when I try to drill on the same intersection in Smart View, I get "No drill-through reports found at this location." I used the same member combinations for both, so I know the intersection is correct. Am I missing something simple?
-Brian

There are some limitations on drill through:
These are two ports >>transport.port and server.httpPort.used to communicate with Essbase Spreadsheet Add-in and Hyperion Smart View.
In Hyperion Smart View, drill-through will not work properly. You must refresh the port number stored in the cube by following the instructions in "Updating Cube Linkage" See the Essbase Studio Online Help or Essbase Studio User's Guide.
Change the HTTP Port Number:
If you add an entry for the server.httpPort property in the server.properties file to change it from the default setting of 9080, the following is the state of drill-through connectivity on cubes built prior to the port adjustment.
Note: Cubes built after the port adjustment will work properly. In Smart View, drill-through will work properly.
PS:
With shared connections, Smart View always connects first with the EPM Workspace Web application to authenticate the user and then connects to each provider using the EPM SSO token. With private connections, SmartView authenticates with the provider
Adding to solution if your using 11.1.1.3.01 try adding PATCH:9779433 will help

Query to find the Views and synonyms that are accessing through db_link

HI all,
Oracle 10g
I need a Query to find the Views and synonyms that are accessing through db_link.
ie.
database A have the db_link to database B through a schema A
now i need to find what are the Synonyms and views that are accessing through db_link either directly or indirectly..
regards,
Deepak
Edited by: Deepak_DBA on Dec 10, 2010 5:38 PM

On the second database (B) use this query to find the SQL which used by the schema A (DB LINK USER). Check the SQL_FULLTEXT column.
select sql_fulltext,sql_id,module,parsing_schema_name,parsing_user_id,first_load_time,loads,users_executing,rows_processed,plsql_exec_time,sorts,fetches,invalidations,parse_calls,cpu_time,elapsed_time,disk_reads,buffer_gets
from V$sqlarea
where parsing_schema_name = 'A' --and to_char(first_load_time,'dd/mm/yyyy') like '%11/08/2007'
order by first_load_time desc;

Can't access "Range Retrieval" & "Butterfly report" features in smart view

Hi Experts,
I need your help regarding enabling new features of smart view.
I am not able to use the following feature of smart view:
- Range Retrieval
- Butterfly report
Do I have to configure any settings to enable this feature??
Currently I am using the following:
smart view client: 11.1.2.2.00
smart view provider: 11.1.2.1.00
Essbase: not sure (will try to get the info if needed)
Thanks in advance experts

Hi Glenn,
Thank you for your response.
That must be the cause.
I saw a documentation that the smart view 11.1.2.2 is compatible with service provider 11.1.2.X,
but did not mention any loss in functionality for earlier versions like 11.1.2.1.00.
maybe I missed it.
Thanks again for your help

Hyperion Planning form change not flowing through to Smart View

Hyperion Planning 11.1.2 and Smaer View 11.1.2.
I have a user that installed SV yesterday but has been using planning for years. I made a change on his planning form (just added an account) and he does not see this change in smart view. However, he does see the change when logged into Hyperion Planning in his form.
One strange thing about this is the change shows for all hierarchies except for ones that he has loaded data to. So, for a hierarchy that has no data, it shows the form in SV how it is in planning. If he loads data to the hier, the form automatically switches back to how it was before the change, even when the planning form itself hasn't been changed.
Here is what we have tried:
Rebooted machine
removed user security completely from plannng and added back
checked for ghost instance in task manager or excel
Opened new Workbook and opened form fresh
remvoed connection, closed excel and all instances, new connection and open form fro mblank slate
Nothing seems to be working. And I see the form how it is in planning. HE does not, he sees it the "old way" and ony for hier points that have data submitted to them. So, literally switches the view based on the POV.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edited by: kplum12 on Jun 15, 2012 11:48 AM

Hi,
Sounds like in the smart list set up you set "#Missing Data Form Label:" to "Data Form Setting" change it to "Drop Down Setting" and it should be alright.

Any assistence will be verymuch appreciated.

Hi,
I got this error while connecting to the Essbase server through EAS Console. To resolve this issue I just removed the Essbase server from the Enterprise view and added the server again. After that I was able to access the Essbase applications.
But I am not sure about smart view. Also make sure that you are using the correct login credentials to login into the server.
Thanks,

I need to restrict users to submit data from Smart view or Excel Addin.

Hi All,
I need to restrict users to submit data from Smart view or Excel Addin.
I cant provision them as read access because I want them to write from the Hyperion Planning Web Form.
Any help on the same will be highily appriciated.

John,
Thanks for the reply . if i dont give them essbase write role user cant submit data through smartview or Excel addin. at the same users want to see adhoc reports making connection in smartview through planning, then users can send data.
1. I want users to restrict export dataform to smartview, if they can export dataform to smartview it automatically makes connection using planning and users can pretty much change data.
2. is there any way to restrict users making connection through planning in smartview.
3. when users make smartview connection through essbase, the secuirty works fine and they cant change the data.
Please let me know if you any solution ....
advance thanks,
NM
