Predictive Analysis won´t start

Hi everyone,
a few weeks ago I used Predictive Analysis and it worked perfectly fine. For some reason yesterday I was not able to start the application and it always freezed on the loading screen with "Loading SAP Hana" or something like that. I tried to restart and reinstall the application but unfortunately nothing worked so far.
Best regards and thanks in advance,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
It's likely because your windows profile has changed to "roaming" or you've lost write access to your rooming folder. The PA log files should have some error recorded relating to \\some.server.corp\users\<User ID>\.sapvi directory
Solution:
Clear following directories for PA
C:\Users\<user>\.sapvi
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\SAP\Lumira
C:\Users\Public\sappa
In Window's Explorer navigate to PA's install folder, typically C:\Program Files\SAP Predictive Analysis\Desktop.
Make a backup copy of SAPPredictiveAnalysis.ini.
Edit SAPPredictiveAnalysis.ini and add the following line near the top before @user.home is used to redirect the users home directory to the directory of your choice:
-Duser.home=<<New File Location>>
For example this causes the c:\temp directory to be used:
-Duser.home=c:\temp
Looking forward to your feedback.
Regards,
Jayant

    Our Reqirement:
    Now we need to Build a Predictive analysis report around this data as follows:
    1) The report should show the predictive analysis of liquid consumption by month wise, for each machine level.
    Our query:
    1) For this requirement what is the predictive analysis algorithm (function) we should use ?
    2) What is the implementation procedure on the respective algorithm.
    How can we build Types, input Tables ?
    How can we build Parameters, how can we determine the Alpha value etc , for our requirement?
    Our research and queries on the same.
    WE went through a video (HANA Academy - Key Concepts of the Predictive Analysis Library - YouTube)on Single Smooth Algorithm, in that we query on Result.
    The  input was given as Calendar Id and Sales Amout, where Calendar Id starts from 0 – 23 , what is meant by this Calendar Id ?
    And also the result is showing Calendar Id from 2-24 , why it is not considering Calendar 0 and 1
    How can we say that the result is predictive and on what basis (like month ,year , date etc).
    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi JH Yang,
    Thanks for the post.
    Yes, the BW Connect (offline) feature should be coming to SAP PA.
    According to this post: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3571348
    Also you find the full Roadmap for Predictive Analysis here: Product Road Map Updates

  • Please Provide a Key for SAP Predictive Analysis 1.15 32-bit

    please provide a needed a key for SAP Predictive Analysis 1.15 32-bit to be used in University Lab computers.

    Hi Ye,
    I am afraid but the only way today is to delete your document without PA / Lumira.
    By default, local files are stored at :
    User/Documents/SAP Lumira Documents
    In this folder you'll see the list of all the documents you have created with SAP Lumira or SAP PA.
    Delete the document that you don't want anymore and (re)start SAP PA.
    The delete functionnality from the desktop tool is an idea accepted by the Labs (Delete Files in Lumira Desktop : View Idea), but not implemented yet.
    Hope it helps,

  • Buisness scenario for Predictive Analysis

    Hi All,
    I am new to SAP Predictive Analysis. I have gone through all the algorithms present in predictive analysis client tool about when should they be used.
    Now I planned to try implementing it on some business scenario.
    But the problem I am facing is I am not getting any proper data suitable for PA. I am trying to take BW data into excel which will act as my data source.
    Can anyone suggest me what data I should pick up from BW or if possible provide me with some sample data.
    Thanks and Regards
    Mithilesh Prasad

    Hi,
    You can also found some datasets on SAP Partner Edge website with the Workbook: SAP Advanced Analytics (SAP PartnerEdge).
    If you want to find more dataset,  I suggest you to download datasets from UCI Machine Learning Repository to build examples. (UCI Machine Learning Repository). You can start with the dataset Statlog (German Credit Data) with a neural network or a decision tree.

  • SAP HANA One and Predictive Analysis Desktop - Time Series Algorithms

    I have been working on a Proof-of-Concept project linking the SAP Predictive Analysis Desktop application to the SAP HANA One environment.
    I have modeled that data using SAP HANA Studio -- created Analytic views, Hierarchies, etc. -- following the HANA Academy videos.  This has worked very well in order to perform the historical analysis and reporting through the Desktop Application. 
    However, I cannot get the Predictive Analysis algorithms -- specifically the Time Series algorithms -- to work appropriately using the Desktop tool. It always errors out and points to the IndexTrace for more information, but it is difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of the issue.  The HANA Academy only has videos on Time Series Algorithms using SQL statements which will not work for my user community since they will have to constantly tweak the data and algorithm configuration. 
    In my experience so far with Predictive Analysis desktop and the Predictive Algorithms, there is a drastic difference between working with Local .CSV / Excel files and connecting to a HANA instance.  The configuration options for using the Time Series Algorithms are different depending upon the data source, which seems to be causing the issue.  For instance, when working with a local file, the Triple Exponential Smoothing configuration allows for the specification of which Date field to use for the calculation.  Once the data source is switched to HANA, it no longer allows for the Date field to be specified.  Using the exact same data set, the Algorithm using the local file works but the HANA one fails. 
    From my research thus far, everyone seems to be using PA for local files or running the Predictive Algorithms directly in HANA using SQL.  I can not find much of anything useful related to combing PA Desktop to HANA. 
    Does anyone have any experience utilizing the Time Series Algorithms in PA Desktop with a HANA instance?   Is there any documentation of how to structure the data in HANA so that it can be properly utilized in PA desktop? 
    HANA Info:
    HANA One Version: Rev 52.1
    HANA Version: 1.00.66.382664
    Predictive Analysis Desktop Info:
    Version: 1.0.11
    Build: 708
    Thanks in advance --

    Hi,
    If you use CSV or XLS data source you will be using Native Algorithm or R
    Algorithm in SAP Predictive Analysis.
    When you connect HANA, SAP Predictive Analysis uses PAL Algorithm which runs
    on HANA server.
    Coming to your question regarding difference,
    In SAP PA Native Algorithm, we could provide the Data variable, Algorithm
    picks the seasonal information from the Data column. Both R and SAP HANA PAL
    does not support Date Column. We need configure seasonal information in
    Algorithm properties.
    R Properties
    1) Period : you need to mention the periodicity of the Data
    Monthly : (12)
    Quarter : (4)
    Custom : you can use it for week or Daily or hourly.
    2) Start Year: need to mention Start year.
    Start year is not used by algorithm for calculating Time series, but it helps
    PA to generate Visualization ( Time series chart) by simulating year and
    periodicity information.
    3) Starting Period:
    if your data is Quarterly and you have data recordings from Q2, mention 2 in
    start period.
    Example.
    If the data periodicity is Monthy and my data starts from Feb 1979, we need to provide following information,
    Period: 12
    Start year: 1979
    start Period: 2
    PAL Properties. : Same as properties defined in R.
    Thanks

  • My iMac won't start normally it will start on safe boot unless I start in verbus mode single user mode or reset the pram but if I start this way it won't sleep

    help mi imac won't start normally

    Hello!
    Can you tell us what happens?
    I’ve offered the steps below to similar posts in the past and they helped out getting to the solution (or at least find the cause). I suggest them to you too in this case. It will take you about 30 minutes or less to do these, depending on how bad the problem on your Mac is.
    The goal here is to boot your Mac to the so-called Recovery partition where you’ll have a chance to repair the disk and the disk permissions using the Disk Utility and Password Utility. This might solve your issue and even if it doesn’t- it’s still a decent maintenance step to perform. These steps won’t erase your data or reinstall your Mac in any way if you follow instructions carefully.
    Here’s how:
    1/ Make sure your computer is completely shut down.
    2/ You’ll have to be quick next: Press the Mac’s power button. As soon as you either hear the loud chime, or see the display light up - usually after a second or 2 - on your keyboard press [cmd] + [r] Keep these keys on your keyboard pressed until you either see an Apple Logo with a loading bar or a spinning gear.
    After a few minutes, you’ll be presented with a Utilities screen. This is the Recovery partition. If this step is already giving you problems, try using a USB-keyboard. It doesn’t have to be an Apple-keyboard. If you have a Windows-tailored keyboard laying around, use the “Windows-flag” key in stead of the [cmd]-key and it should also work.
    3/ Choose Disk Utility and click [continue]
    Disk Utility will display your computer’s harddrive in the left column. The default name for it is “Macintosh HD” and is usually the second one from the top. Click on it and click on the [verify disk] button. This will check your “Macintosh HD” harddrive partition for errors. If found, click [repair disk]  unless you have a Fusion drive in your Mac and it says [fix] instead of [repair disk] please tell us before you continue! For a screenshot of what I mean, check this article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202574
    4/ Once done with the verifying or repairing of your “Macintosh HD” click [repair disk permissions]
    This will check your partition for permissions errors. A common myth about this feature is that it will fix all permissions issues on your Mac, which is not true, but it will fix most systemwide issues. Also, here is a list of error messages that you can safely ignore if they pop up:
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203172
    5/ Lastly we shall do a permissions/Access Control List repair on specifically your user’s home folder with a somewhat hidden tool in the Recovery partition. Close Disk Utility and find the menu called “utilities” in the top left corner of your computer’s display. It’s in between the menus “edit” and “window” Don’t be confused with the menu called “os x utilities” 
    Choose Terminal. A somewhat old-fashioned looking window will pop up, waiting for a text command from you. This is the Terminal.
    After the # type: resetpassword and press return. Note that there is no space between ‘reset’ and ‘password’ 
    What you’ll see next is an rectangular window that gives you the option to reset passwords. We are not going to that, however. Instead, click on “Macintosh HD” at the top. In the pull-down menu below that, choose your user's accountname. Skip all the rest and at the very bottom click the [reset]-button.
    A spinning gear will appear and may stay on for a second or several minutes. It’s hard to predict exactly how long.
    If you have multiple users on your Mac, I advise you to repeat this step for all your users.
    We’re ready to reboot your Mac now. Click on the Apple Menu and choose “startup disk” Choose to boot from “Macintosh HD” Please let us know if this solved your issue, or if the steps above did not work, or could not be performed for some reason.

  • SAP won't start after recabeling sap system

    Hi,<br>
    <br>
    I have recently recabled my sap system (from wireless to wired) and now my sap instance won't start anymore. The weird thing is that nothing major was changed. When i read the logs from the work directory it seems it cannot load dbsdbslib.dll. I have updated to the latest version of the kernel and maxdb (kernel=7.00 patch 221, maxdb=7.6.06.07) and i made very sure i got the right kernel (NT AMD64). I also checked the environment settings for the <sid>adm user. The weird part is that it seems SAP cannot connect to the database, but the databse starts just fine and r3trans -d also returns no errors. Does anyone<br> have an idea what could be wrong?<br>
    <br>
    Kind regards,<br>
    Bas<br>

    <p class=MsoNormal> </p>
    <p class=MsoNormal>To answer your questions:</p>
    <p class=MsoNormal>1. Did you create the SAP ticket, where this problem is
    reported?</p>
    <p class=MsoNormal>I didn't report it to SAP because it is just an IDES test
    system. I can easily do a reinstall, but i would like to know the cause and
    solution to this problem.</p>
    <p class=MsoNormal> </p>
    <p class=MsoNormal>2. Do you have dbsdbslib.dll at this location? What version?</p>
    <p class=MsoNormal>Yes, i have the dbsdbslib.dll at location
    D:\usr\sap\IDE\DVEBMGS00\exe and also D:\usr\sap\IDE\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64</p>

  • My iPhone 5 won't start!

    My Iphone 5 won't start and tells me to connect the phone to ITunes but nothing happens when I do. The phone doesn´t show up in ITunes. What to do?

    Apologies, 11.0.4 is the most recent of course...
    You'll need to enter DFU mode.
    Connect the iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes
    Turn the iPhone off (hold down the power button at the top of the iPhone)
    Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button
    Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected
    Hopefully this should work, with you being able to restore the device in iTunes.
    However, be warned that this will erase all content on the iPhone, content you can restore if you have saved backups on your Mac/PC or on iCloud.

  • Ok so I updated to iOS 7 on my iPod (5th) it let me update my apps but I cannot download new apps thanks to the terms and conditions. Also my iTunes won't start it just blank, I tried everything I need help

    Ok so I updated to iOS 7 on my iPod (5th) it let me update my apps but I cannot download new apps thanks to the terms and conditions. Also my iTunes won't start it just blank, I tried everything I need help

       Did you download the new iTunes update that was also released this afternoon? That might be the problem. The new iTunes update came out today as well as the new iOS 7 update and if you haven't downloaded the new iTunes update it may be a compatibility problem so if you didn't, first update to the new iTunes and try again.

  • All of a sudden Photoshop won't start [on a Macbook Air]

    Dear all,
    I'm on a MacBook Air with OS X 10.10.2, and I use Photoshop about once a month, but now I really need it, and it won't start:
    - Immediately after I click on the Photoshop icon I get "Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 cannot be opened because of a problem." And when I click on the "Report..." button I get a very technical message (see below).
    - I've used Photoshop on this machine for about a year with no problem, but recently I had a problem and needed to restore from my TimeMachine backup.
    - I don't know if the problem occurred immediately after the restore or not.
    - I've read innumerable threads on various forums, but nothing describes my problem exactly. I suspect a problem with my paths and permissions (since I read a report that restoring from a TimeMachine causes such problems occasionally), but I don't know which path is corrupted/missing/unreadable.
    - I've tried creating a new admin account and starting Photoshop from there. It didn't work.
    - I don't mind reinstalling, but I don't have an installer image. I started with Photoshop 6, then updated to CS2, CS4 and eventually CS5. I do have all the serial numbers but not all update-images.
    I would appreciate any hints on how to further diagnose and some the problem.
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Restore preference files to default
    In this video, learn the two methods of resetting your preference files back to default: Manual preference file removal and Keyboard Shortcut method (starts at 5:05)
    by Julieanne Kost
    To restore preferences quickly using a keyboard short cut:
    Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) as you start Photoshop. You are prompted to delete the current settings. The new preferences files are created the next time you start Photoshop.
    Note: Using the keyboard shortcut, preference files for custom shortcuts, workspaces, and color setings will also be reset to default.

  • X11 won't start anymore!

    Hello,
    this is a desperate call: I am at a conference with my MBP, (10.6.7, all updates done). I need Matlab for my presentation, which needs X11.
    X11 (and XQuartz) decided that they won't start anymore: the icon bounces in the dock for a while, then sits there without the little light underneath, and X11 is "non responding".
    The logs show something like this.
    I have googled and searched: similar problems once in a while appear but no posted solution.
    I tried:
    1) reinstalling XQuartz (I would reinstall X11, but how? I do not have the disks with me, I am away!)
    2) from an admin account
    3) create a new account.
    4) repair permissions.
    5) reinstall the font update from Apple that was recently issued.
    HELP PLEASE!!!

    Here is the solution: there was nothing wrong with x11 per se!
    The problem was that about 30 files in /usr/bin (like gzip, egrep, hexdump etc) had been hosed (they had 0 file size).  The puzzling messages was due to the fact that startx uses hexdump, which was simply silently doing nothing (since it had 0 size!).
    I do not know what or when these files were zeroed: I suspect a recent OSX update which did not complete and I had to forcefully reboot.
    I have fixed it enough to work (copying those files from another mac), but who knows what else lurks beneath the surface of apparent serenity!
    I am actually surprised that the whole system did not stop functioning completely.
    MORALE: if something looks strange in the logs with x11 or other apps, check the file sizes  in your /usr/bin, you may be surprised too!

  • 24" iMac won't start when iPod is connected

    My 24" iMac won't start up/restart if my iPod is already connected to it. If I restart with the iPod connected, I just get a gray screen (with no apple logo) forever. Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, any solution? I have Windows installed with boot camp, don't know if that's the problem, but I tried reseting the p-ram, but to no avail...
    Intel iMac 24", 7600 GT, 500GB, 2GB. Titanium Powerbook 667 MHz G4, loaded.   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   30 GB iPod Video

    My suggestion would be disconnect the iPod. That's just me though.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93953
    I'm guessing Boot Camp is the culprit. Whatever emulated BIOS it's using doesn't like the iPod as a startup disk.

  • I was messing around with .kext files in the MacintoshHD and now my MacBook Pro won't start up.

    I was messing around with .kext files in the MacintoshHD and moved the system.kext and two others to my desktop and deleted the originals and now the MacBook Pro won't start up. All I get at start up is the apple icon then a bunch of text shows up part of which says Mac OS version: not yet set. then the apple icon turns into the power icon and tells me to turn off the computer. I've tried reinstalling from the install DVD by holding down option when powering on and selecting the install DVD and it just goes to a white screen with the apple icon and stays like that. I didn't have the disk utility on my Mac before this happened because I deleted it to make room on my computer a while ago so I'm not sure if that's why it won't load the install DVD but anyone who knows the solution to this with out going to get it repaired would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Never mind my dad just found the original install DVD and that worked. Before I was using an install disc that Apple sent me for another issue I was having, but thanks for replying so quickly and trying to help on this Thanksgiving day!!!

  • I deleted my extensions manager and now my Mac won't start up. Please Help!!

    I have an IMac, 24" model, running OS X. For the past several days, little warning windows have been popping up with this annoying beep, telling me that my computer was infected with various viruses. 4, to be exact. Also, while on the internet, random pop-up windows have appeared, so I thought I did have a virus. So, to correct the matter (or attempt to), I deleted my preferences folder from the system folder, as well as the extensions manager.
    Now, the computer won't start up past the white logo screen with the turning gear thingy. I've tried resetting the PRAM, and starting in safe mode, and safe mode with the progress screen, and even something there while holding the option key (that one gave me an icon of my HD, but clicking on it took me back to an endless wait on the white screen). I've tried starting from the disk that came with the computer (I held the C key) but not only doesn't the computer start from the disk, it spits the disk out. I don't understand. The computer was fine until I deleted the ext. mgr and preferences, so it can't be that the computer went bad or something.
    I don't know what else to do here. I do have an extended service warranty with Best Buy, but I wanted to see if there was some way to fix this before hauling this thing off to the store. Any suggestions? I'm desperate here, because anything and everything I've tried (based on all the try-this and try-thats I found on the internet), nothing has worked.
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Well done! You've succeeded in turning your Mac into a useless brick.
    Deleting the System/Library/extensions folder and the associated manager removed most of the functionality from your OS.
    And all to get rid of what sounds like the MacDefender trojan or a variant.
    ref; http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4650 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4651
    You may have a slim chance of recovering if it will still boot in Target Disc Mode; in which case you can use another Mac to install the system remotely.
    And I doubt your warranty with Best Buy is going to cover user "error."
