OWB REPOSITORY BROWSER PROBLEM

I am new with owb and have a problem with that Warehouse Builder Browser.
At the first I start the OWB Browser Listener. That's ok.
Afterwards I start the Repository Browser AND login as repository owner. That's ok.
Now the problem: after I click any link, I come back again on the login PAGE. With the others links the same happens (such as Object Summary Report)
What is the problem??
I use Oracle 10gR1 and Warehouse Builder 10gR2
Please help me.
Thank you for answers

Hello,
I was also hit by the same and raised a SR. Here is the follow up --
Symptoms
========
One can log in OWB browser but after any navigation move, Browser returns to login page.
Cause
=====
According to development this is OC4J security bug which is specific to the OC4J version of I.E. on Windows 2000. This should work if with Netscape or with I.E. on Windows platforms after Windows 2000.
ANSWER
=======
- close the oc4j session (ctrl/c);
- in owb_home/owb/j2ee/config/owbb-web-site.xml
replace the line
<web-site port="8999" secure="true" display-name="OWB Browser Wed Site">
with
<web-site port="8999" display-name="OWB Browser Wed Site">
(removed secure = "true")
- save it;
- run the oc4j session again, make sure in the oc4j outputs you cannot see
"....unpacking owbb.war", just "initialized"
- do not use any command from the owb installations; open Netscape or IE and put
the URL with http not https, e.g.
http://127.0.0.1:8999/owbb/RABLogin.uix?mode=design
This had actually solved my problem.

Is this caused by something with the configuration?

Hi ,
What is your OWB version ?
If it is 10.2 then read the following
With Warehouse Builder 10.2.0.X, the Repository Browser Listener is only supported on Windows x86-32bit and linux x86-32bit client machine.
So start the Warehouse Builder Repository Browser Listener on Windows/Linux x86-32bit client machine
For 11g refer MOS Note 469422.1
Thanks,

OWB Repository Browser - Execution Job Report Very Very Slow

Dear All,
I have tried searching the Oracle Forum, but could not find any threads with above problems, would like to check if there are other gurus who can help with above issue:
We are currently monitoring our ETL Jobs with Repository Browser (10GR2) and found the Repository Browser excruciatingly slow. The first screen for the Execution Summary Report shows up pretty fast, however whenever we want to drill further inthe Execution Job Reports, it takes almost 20 Minutes for the next screen to pop-up, and when we drill into the Process Flow Details it is another 20-40 Minutes.
We have tried the following but it does not work:
1) Purging the audit details to only 1-2 days audit data
2) Re-analyzing all tables belonging to OWB_REPO_OWNER

OWB Repository Browser

Hi,
I use the Repository Browser to see the execution details when a mapping is in execution.
But the repository browser does not show the number of records inserted or updated, until the mapping
finishes its execution. This is happening in 10gR2.
Is there way , by which I can get the real time information of how many records got updated till now while the mapping execution is in progres.
Thanks
MD

You have to take into fact that you have a commit frequency, and max number of errors, if an error occurs it will probably rollback, you have operating mode, row based, set based, etc. you will probably not see your result until the execution is done.

OWB 10.2.0.1.31: Not be able to view reports on Repository Browser

Hello,
I not be able to show the list of execution mappings into owb repository browser. I get access to login page and i get access with runtime repository owner user, but repository browser don´t show the mapping execution list into execution report page.
In other installation od OWB the execution mapping's report showed correctly. I try to install into clean computer and not be able to get the result of execution mapping.
Any idea??
Jaaquin

I have exactly the same problem. Repository browser is working, I can see deployment reports. The execution reports are working but emtpy. Although the control center manager shows execution logs.
The problem appeared after I installed the last patch Warehouse Builder 10.2.0.4 Patch. Everything else seems to work normally.
The client version is 10.2.0.4.36
The repository version is 10.2.0.4.0
Can it be the difference between the repository and OWB browser versions?
Thanks,
Kaur

OWB 11g - Repository Browser no OC4J instance

Hi All,
I have installed OWB11g and its working fine. But I don't see any OC4J instance startup under my program menu->oracle home and hence i cannot start the OWB repository browser. Do i need to configure any other thing to see OC4J instance startup or for 11g there is no OC4J requried. If no OC4J is requried for OWB repository browser in 11g , how do i start the browser ?
Thanks,
Sam.

Hi All,
I got it - in 11g you can use startOwbbInst.bat under <ORACLE_HOME>/owb/bin/win32 to start the OC4J instance and in 11g when you run it for the first time it will ask you to set OC4J Administrator password.
Thanks,
Sam.

Error Starting OWB Rep Browser Listener

Trying to start the OWB Repository Browser Listener, on a Win XP client (11g/11g), via StartOwbbInst.bat, and I receive the following error:
2010-02-03 19:07:37.421 ERROR J2EE HTTP-10001 Could not create Secure http listener due to {0}
2010-02-03 19:07:37.468 ERROR J2EE OJR-00010 Exception starting HTTP server: SSL setup failure: D:\app\XUSERX\product\11.1.0\db_1\

10/02/03 19:07:39 Fatal error: server exiting
Looking at the oc4j's log (log.xml), I see the following "FileNotFoundException" ref'd file:
D:\app\XUSERX\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\bin\admin\..\..\j2ee\config\%ORACLE_HOME%\owb\j2ee\config\keystore.jks (The system cannot find the path specified)
Either the %ORACLE_HOME% token included in the ref'd file name is munged in logging, or the app is actually trying to ref a file with an %ORACLE_HOME% literal. I see no issues with any environment settings, or with any env assignments in either the StartOwbbInst.bat or the ref'd setowbenv.bat file.
Any ideas would be mucho appreciated!

OWB10gR2 Repository Browser hangs on report call

Hi,
after weeks of normal work with OWB Repository Browser, it started recently to hang up in the moment when an "Execution Job Report" (in column "Related Information") is called. No difference if error, mapping or workflow process report. We don't know which change in the system may have triggered this. Problem seems not to be in the database (no change in session after clicking the link is noticed). The OC4J windows gives no further log info and I can't find any log file in the J2EE directory. When trying to shut down the OC4J session regularly it brings:
06/09/15 11:41:43 Shutting down...
06/09/15 11:41:45 Thread named: Thread[HttpRequestHandler-3945515,1,ApplicationServerThreadGroup] cannot be interrupted
06/09/15 11:41:45 Thread named: Thread[HttpRequestHandler-30624226,1,ApplicationServerThreadGroup] cannot be interrupted
The DOS box has to be closed the brutal way which recovers after restarting.
some ideas around
regards
Thomas

indeed, it is likely that the report was simply hanging in SQL execution. did you check that before you purged? What can occur is that the statistics for the RT schema get out of whack if the schema is not analyzed. AFter months and months of operations, the execution plan for these reports is no longer valid and ... then you hang for a long time :)
analyze stats. and on slower systems, truncate audit data every now and then. and make sure you aren't running all your mappings in FULL audit mode.
My two cents.

How to enable the repository browser

Hi everyone
Can you please guide me to enable the repository browser in owb 11g. Should we access it from the server itself or can we access it from the client if so can u please provide me with the detail steps as to enable it? and should we enable it from the client or the server itself?
regards
Subhasree

You can access the repositry browser from your client.
Under Adminstration in OWB in Start-Program. click on Start OWB Browser Listener.
Then click on OWB/Repository Browser
Login to your repository.

Cleanup OWB repository

The OWB repository browser has become very slow so I want to cleanup the job output in the repository.
Does anyone have a good script to do this?

I ran the
@purge_audit_template.sql
package with DEPLOYMENT parameter, and now Control Center Manager shows the objects with a Deploy Status of "Not Deployed".
I did not expect this and it has me concerned. I checked the db and all the objects still exist and Control Center Manager still shows a Deployed Date for each object. Does Control Center Manager get that Deploy Status from one of the audit tables that were purged?
I am looking for someone to confirm what occurred is normal and that I should not be concerned about this.
Thanks

Problem in starting repository browser on owb 11g

I have successfully installed oracle 11g release1. The associated Warehouse Builder works fine, everything is ok.
Now I want to start Repository Browser. So, I must run the startowbbinst.bat file from directory oracle_home/owb/bin/win32, but I receive this:
- call setowbenv.bat
- date and time - Error initializing server: Error initializing _logger for ../log/server.log: Access is denied
-date and time - Fatal error: server exiting

Same issue for me too. Can you please tell me the solution for this issue.

Problem starting Repository Browser Service on Windows Server 2008

Using the default Warehouse Builder installation in the 11g (11.1.0.7.0) databaseinstallation on a clean Windows Server 2008 64-bit installation.
Warehouse Builder installed and populated ok, OWB client works fine etc.
When trying to start the Repository Browser listener by running the startOwbbInst.bat, the OC4J container crashes with the following error in the \owb\j2ee\log\oc4j\log.xml:
+<MSG_TEXT>Could not create Secure http listener due to {0}</MSG_TEXT>+
+<SUPPL_DETAIL><![CDATA[java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\bin\admin\..\..\j2ee\config\%ORACLE_HOME%\owb\j2ee\config\keystore.jks (The system cannot find the path specified)+

+     at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:66)+
+     at oracle.oc4j.security.OC4JSSLSocketFactory.getStoreIn(OC4JSSLSocketFactory.java:253)+
(The local_service_login.bat works fine).
We're starting this as an administrator user in Win2008.
All parameteres in the setowbenv.bat seems to be correct as far as I can tell. There is a strange reference to %ORACLE_HOME% in the above log, of which I've no idea where it is coming from....
Identical installation worked fine on a 64-bit Windows Server 2003, - so can this be something related to a new security model in Windows Server 2008?
(I found a posting regarding problems with the startOwbbInst.bat on Vista [here |http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=2275781&#2275781] - so maybe.... however, the quickfix mentioned there did'nt help us here...)
Anyone experienced similar problems (and preferably solved them) on Windows Server 2008 and/or Vista?
Regards,
-Haakon-

Solved this after some trawling through xml configuration files on the server.
The file C:\Oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\j2ee\config\http-web-site.xml contains the reference to keystore.jks:
          <ssl-config keystore="*%ORACLE_HOME%*/owb/j2ee/config/keystore.jks" keystore-password="->keystoreadmin"/>
changing this to:
          <ssl-config keystore="C:\Oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1/owb/j2ee/config/keystore.jks" keystore-password="->keystoreadmin"/>
and the OC4J container starts successfully.

Don't you have to enable session cookies in order to IE to work?
I don't know, this is just a guess.

OWB 11.2.0.1 – Repository Browser?

OWB 11.2.0.1 – Repository Browser?
==================================
We are using OWB 11gR2 and Oracle 11gR2.
We find design center reports and control center reports on main page. It look same for both options. What are the design center specific reports?
It shows Linage and Impacts are not supported. It was the same for earlier versions as well.
What is the reason behind providing Linage and Impacts here?
Any thoughts?
Thanks in helping
Edited by: qwe16235 on Sep 16, 2011 2:37 PM

It can be anywhere where there is an OWB software installation, you run the service using the owb/bin/win32/startowbbinst or owb/bin/unix/startowbinst scripts.

OWB performance with repository browser

Hi,
I just want to know... is there some way in repository browser or OWB to detect how much time that had been spent to execute one record in a query?
For example, if i got 20 records executed in a single mapping... i want to know how much time the mapping need and the time performance of each records...
Anyone has suggestion?
Thanks in advance,
Davis

I also am not quite sure how you could do this in such a way to gaurantee accurate measurement.
One possible approach is to append a timestamp column to the source table, and populate the field with systimestamp (for the sub-second granularity) in the mapping. Then, after the load, you could sort all your records by this column, find a chunk together and compare load times.
But even this would be like swatting a mosquito with a bat, and may not even be fully accurate itself under certain loading scenarios (not the mention the fact that technically this would actually make the mapping run slower that actual since you've added a whole new column populated by a function call!)
