OBIEE System DSN Confiuration issue

Hi Experts,
I have install OBIEE 11g on the server and after that i have install OBIEE client tools installer in the client machine,
As i have install the OBIEE client tools in the client machine, one default system DNS has been created in the "ODBC Data Source Administrator" with the driver "Oracle BI Server". I wanted to configure this default system DNS so that i can connect with the database server.
But When i am trying to configure the same and when i am established a connection using the the above mentioned default system dsn i am getting the error saying....."The Connection has Failed".
Please suggest on this...

The System DSN something ling 'coreapplication_OH500430257' is used to open RPD online mode, and nothing to do with database.
You can go for new DSN for database by selecting specific database driver.
if helps pls mark else let me know for any info

  • Using System DSN Credentials in OBIEE 10g

    Hi Gurus/Experts
    This is what i read in one of the blogs... that If the Shared Logon option is not selected, connections through the connection pool use the database user ID and password specified in the DSN
    http://oracle-bi.siebelunleashed.com/articles/more-on-connection-pools/
    Thought of giving it a try..
    so created a System DSN
    In Connection Pool, Disabled the shared logon and chose the ODBC 3.5 and gave the DSN name from the dropdown.
    Now i am getting the below error in the Physical layer itself while viewing data...
    A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 16001] ODBC error state: 28000 code: 1017 message: [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied.
    My Question
    Can we really  use the credentials from the  System DSN , if the Shared Logon is unchecked?
    Note: The DSN is working fine when i test it...
    Thanks
    Ashish

    Let me tell you what i did..
    My Rpd was working fine and i had Shared Logon thing checked...
    Then i read this blog... and i thought of trying it out.. ie trying to use System DSN's credentials to see data... [can we store password in System DSN?]
    After that i went to the connection pool and removed username and password ( ie gave blank or null there) and unchecked the shared logon thing.
    [If i am disabling the shared logon  then whether i give username, password or not should be immaterial .. right?]
    Now i saved the Rpd... and then tried to view the data in physical layer ... its throwing the above error... or in other words its not taking the credentials that i had given while creating System DSN in windows [ ie in Run  type odbcad32 then that DSN stuff]
    Make sure the Physical Schema in Physical Layer RPD (green folder) is same as you have schema name is Database. Its same
    If this option is not selected, connections through the connection pool use the database user ID and password specified in the DSN or in the user profile.Specified in the DSN... see i mean the System DSN ie accessed in windows... and i havent given any user specific logon in OBIEE...
    You can also check the checkbox for required fully qualified names..Its already done...
    Let me know if you need more details
    Thanks

    hi
    1.tnsping directly the OBAW from cmd prompt or putty
    2.set the ODBC.INI tnsfile on linux box
    3.set the tnsnames.ora file under Oracle client on windows box
    4.try to directly view the data from repository
    5. some times network issues, so ask your dba to bounce the database

  • Cannot see System DSN in Crystal Reports 2008 on Vista/Windows 2008

    I've been making quite a bit of progress in switching migrating our Crystal Reports 8.0 reports and apps to Crystal Reports 2008 on our Windows 2008 server, but am currently stuck on a DSN issue that I hope someone here can help me out with.
    When I go to select a new ODBC data source in Crystal Reports 2008, the only ODBC data sources that show up in the list are User DSNs.  These reports will be served via our intranet website, so I need to use System DSNs.  The same is true on both my development computer running 64-bit Vista and the production server running Windows Server 2008.
    I'm using Visual Studio 2008 (C#) for development along with Crystal Reports 2008 (not the Crystal Reports Basic that comes with Visual Studio).
    How can I use a System DSN?  Any help or advice will be much appreciated!

    Hi, Paul;
    The first thing to check is to ensure you are creating a 32 bit ODBC DSN, and not a 64 bit one. Crystal Reports 2008 is 32 bit only.

  • How to use VBScript to access a 32bit ODBC System DSN (Excel) on a Windows 7 64bit system?

    What is the correct way to connect to a 32bit System DSN (Excel) on a Windows 7 64bit system?
    I've recently switched from Windows XP Pro x32 to Windows 7 x64.  Now, one of my scripts that uses an ODBC connection will no longer work.  After a bit of searching, I discovered that Windows 7 x64 does not currently have 64bit Excel drivers.  However, you can set up 32-bit connections by running "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe".  Unfortunately, my script still won't work even though I set up the System DSN exactly like I did on my old computer.  When I run my script, I get the following error:
    Quote:
    Script:  X\XML_Check.vbs
    Line:  212
    Char:  3
    Error:  [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application.
    Code:  80004005
    Source:  Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers
    Line 212 contains:
    objConnection.Open "DSN=charge_codes_XLS;"
    It seemed to me that wscript.exe will only communicate properly with an identical environment (x32 to x32 or x64 to x64, but not x64 to x32 or x32 to x64).  With that in mind, I found a way around the error by running my script via the 32bit version of Windows Script Host.  I changed the shortcut path from "X:\XML_CHECK.vbs" to "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wscript.exe X:\XML_CHECK.vbs" and the script appears to function ok. 
    What I really want to know is if there is a way to run my script via the 64bit version of wscript.exe yet have it connect to the 32bit ODBC subsystem? Is there a specific connection string I can use or am I just out of luck until Microsoft puts out 64bit Excel drivers?

    I faced the same issue recently. There was a 32bit MSOffice installed on the 64bit server and the same visual basic code worked from MS Office script debugger, and did not in the cscript/wscript.
    It seems that 
      - the  cscript/wscript used 64bit ODBC driver
      - the  office used     32bit ODBC driver
    Excel drivers are installed for 32bit ODBC (because of 32 bit office the ODBC manager 32bit was a full hand of drivers).
    Excel drivers are NOT installed for 64bit ODBC manager (because of 32 bit OFFICE) and can not be installed while the 32bit MS OFFICE is installed.
    The SQL drivers are installed for 64bit ODBC (so that is why the SQL connection was established well)
    The solution would be to run .js .vbs scripts in 32 bit environment:
    \windows\SysWOW64\cscript.exe or \windows\SysWOW64\wscript.exe 
    Search for more with: how do i run a vbscript in 32 bit mode on a 64 bit machine

  • XEClient Install: ODBC System DSN

    Hi,
    I just installed XEClient Software on a clean Windows XP SP2 German. When I try to create a new System DSN in the ODBC Administrator using "Oracle in XEClient" I get a popup error message stating that ODBC drivers cannot be loaded, error code 106.
    Did I miss something?
    TIA,
    Chris

    Yes that's the problem: XE client is based on Instant Client and for ODBC you need "real client", here is also one more ODBC instant client Microsoft ODBC error on same issue.

  • Configuring System DSN for UCCX8

    Hi,
    I was just about to post a query re. configuring the System DSN for wallboards in UCCX 8.
    I followed the instructions on pages 461-463 of the document below:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cust_contact/contact_center/crs/express_8_0/configuration/guide/uccx801ag.pdf
    However when I tested the connection I got a message stating INFORMIXSERVER does not match either DBSERVERNAME or DBSERVERALIASES
    My UCCX server was called UCCXDAT01 and I had entered UCCXDAT01_uccx for the Server Name.
    After some troubleshooting (verifying that the machine I was configuring the System DSN on could ping the UCCX server) I eventually worked out the problem - the entry for the Server Name has to be in lower case. I changed it to uccxdat01_uccx and the test completed successfully.
    Hope this helps others that run into the same issue.

    Yes, Its little bit tricky when you are setting DSN connection - Always follow the below stated conventions
    ==============
    •Convert all upper case letters to lower case.
    •Replace hyphens with underscore.
    •Add the letter “i” as a prefix to the instance name, if the host name starts with a number.
    •Append the letters "_uccx" to the instance name.
    For example, if the host name is "802UCCX-Ha-Node1", then you should enter "i802uccx_ha_node1_uccx” in the server name field.

  • Cannot see System DSN ODBC Data source (however user DSN is Ok)

    We have installed BO 6.5.1 on Windows 2008 R2 64 bit and set up ODBC Data source to the existing SQL server.
    When we try to set the BO up (Administration>Safe recovery etc.), in the "Database middleware selection" - "Define new connection" - "Data source name" we cannot see the System DSN name that we've created in the Window's "ODBC data source administration" control panel applet. If we create a User DSN, we can see it ok but it works for one user only (as it should).
    So, in a nutshell, if we setup a User DSN it works fine but if we setup a system-wide System DSN BO cannot see it. I've got no idea why...
    Can anyone point me to the right direction, please?

    Are you using the ODBC Administrator from control panel?  If so, try launching this instead:  odbcad32.exe from start/run.
    This is the 32-bit ODBC administrator and since we are a 32-bit application, a 32-bit DSN will need to be configured.
    Here's another forum thread that may be helpful:

  • MySQL System DSN: Host is not allowed to connect to this MySQL Server

    Hi all,
    I'm creating a FileMaker database to keep track of support and to-do items, for a large forum-site I'm managing here in Denmark.
    The site runs on our webhosts servers, but I have a MacMini server we use for development. I'd like to connect the MacMini's MySQL server to FileMaker, and have purchased Actuals ODBC pack witch works great. I can connect to the MySQL server on the MacMini via Navicat, by enabling an SHH Tunnel.
    When trying to create a System DSN via the Actual ODBC drivers, to connect to the MacMini, I get this error:
    Link to screenshot: http://img.skitch.com/20100104-82xe6j7x9b8cjmj357t33p9sb1.png
    The one very strange thing is, that the Mac I'm trying to connect from, is at 192.168.1.15 and not 10.0.0.5! The MacMini is at 10.0.0.2 so it makes no sense what so ever, and as I said, I can connect fine to 10.0.0.2 via Navicat, even though it only works when I enable SSH Tunneling.
    But of course the Actual ODBC (or any for that matter?!) drivers does not support creating an SSH Tunnel, so I need to be able to connect directly to the MacMini's SQL-server, but when I try I get the above error.
    Port 3306 IS open on the server, so I must be overlooking something obvious. I've tried to change the socket when setting up the System DSN to /var/mysql/mysql.sock or /var/mysql but that changes nothing.Ohh yeah, that is ignored for remote servers by the way!
    Can anyone help? How do you guys setup your System DSN to a Mac-server with Snow Leopard Server on it?
    Thank you so much in advance
    Thomas
    PS: I can connect fine to our Webhosts MySQL server with the Actual Drivers, but to decrease load on that server, I'd like to get the data for the FileMaker Support Database from our development-server instead!

    Anyone got an idea on this? If I've posted in the wrong forum, please advise, because I was a little in doubt as to where this was to be placed

  • Instant Client on 64-bit Windows 7: Driver does not appear in System DSN

    Instant Client on 64-bit Windows 7: Driver does not appear in System DSN tab when creating a new Data source.
    What I did so far:
    I downloaded the basic and odbc zips for Window 64-bit.
    Unzipped the basic zip.
    Unzipped the odbc zip to the same directory.
    Added the dir path to the System Environment Variable called Path.
    Double-clicked on the odbc_install.exe to run it from Windows Explorer.
    Then I tried to add the driver to create a new data source but it does not appear in the list of drivers.
    From a cmd window, I navigated to the instant client directory and tried to run odbc_install again.
    I got the message: Oracle ODBC Driver with same name already exists.
    What am I missing?

    hello, I did it like that you say,but the result also is "oracle odbc driver with same name already exists". I don't kown what can I do it ,Thank you!

  • Not Updating Customized Table when System having Performance Issue

    Hi,
    This is actually the same topic as "Not Updating Customized Table when System having Performance Issue" which is posted last December by Leonard Tan regarding the user exit EXIT_SAPLMBMB_001.
    Recently we changed the program function module z_mm_save_hide_qty to update task. However this causes more data not updated. Hence we put back the old version (without the update task).  But now it is not working as it used to be (e.g. version 1 - 10 records not updated, version 2 with update task - 20 records not updated, back to version 1 - 20 records not updated).
    I tried debugging the program, however whenever I debugged, there is nothing wrong and the data is updated correctly.
    Please advise if anyone has any idea why is this happening. Many thanks.
    Regards,
    Janet

    Hi Janet,
    you are right. This is a basic rule not to do any COMMIT or RFC calls in a user exit.
    Have a look at SAP note 92550. Here they say that exit EXIT_SAPLMBMB_001 is called in the update routine MB_POST_DOCUMENT. And this routine is already called in UPDATE TASK from  FUNCTION 'MB_UPDATE_TASKS' IN UPDATE TASK.
    SAP also tells us not to do any updates on SAP system tables like MBEW, MARD, MSEG.
    Before the exit is called, now they call 'MB_DOCUMENT_BADI' with methods MB_DOCUMENT_BEFORE_UPDATE and MB_DOCUMENT_UPDATE. Possibly you have more success implementing the BADI.
    I don't know your situation and goal so this is all I can tell you now.
    Good luck!

  • Cannot access remote FoxPro dbf file using jdbc-odbc and system DSN

    Hi all,
    I have a foxpro database sitting on remote server (netware server). the dbf folder is shared and I can access it using windows explore on my weblogic server (windows 2003). I created a system dsn for that. I can access the database from the a stand alone java program using
    Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
    Connection surgConn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:FoxDB", " ", " ");
    But when I use the same thing in my weblogic 8.1 application, I cannot access the database. I didn't config any data source in weblogic 8.1
    Why?
    When I try this on my own computer - windows 2000, weblogic 8.1 workshop. remote foxpro database dbf folder. it works.
    Any idea?
