Pivot table Govenor exceeded

Question

Hi everyone,
I'm getting the "Governor limit exceeded in cube generation (Maximum data records exceeded.)
Error Details
Error Codes: QBVC92JY " error.
I've got the following entries setup in my instance config file
<PivotView>
<MaxCells>800000</MaxCells>
</PivotView>
<CubeMaxRecords>800000</CubeMaxRecords>
<CubeMaxPopulatedCells>800000</CubeMaxPopulatedCells>
The query I am running is summing up dollars by year and charge type over three years. In the pivot table, the year is the page, the charge type is in the row and the dollar amount is in the measure:
PAGE= Year (in 2009, 2008, 2007)
SECTION=<blank>
Row=Charge Type Measure= Dollars
When I try to view the pivot table I get the governor error. However, when I pull the query from the session log, run it in SQL Developer and add a "group by year, charge_type having count(*) > 800000" clause to the end of the query, it doesn't return any records. I even grouped by just the charge_type having count(*) > 800000 but I still got no results exceeding the limit I set in the instanceconfig.xml file.
My understanding was that the governor should not be triggered when each individual bucket does not exceed the limit (800000). Is this not the case? Can someone explain how this governor works?
Thanks in advance!

Try this in instanceconfig..
<PivotView>
<MaxCells>800000</MaxCells>
<CubeMaxRecords>800000</CubeMaxRecords>
<CubeMaxPopulatedCells>800000</CubeMaxPopulatedCells>
</PivotView>
Add
<CubeMaxRecords>800000</CubeMaxRecords>
<CubeMaxPopulatedCells>800000</CubeMaxPopulatedCells>
these tags also inside pivot view tags...
Just give a try..
Thanks & Regards
