Prevent Editing the Presentation Server Administrators Group

In OBIEE 10.1.3.4, I have created a Catalog Group "Second Tier Administrators" and grant it access to "Settings -> Administration -> Manage Presentation Catalog Groups and Users". How can I prevent the users in the "Second Tier Administrators" group from adding themselves to the "Presentation Server Administrators" group?

Hi Evaldo,
I don't see a way of you being able to edit one line without reading the entire file into memory. You could hold the data you are writing to the file in a custom table in SAP, and when an edit is required, delete the old table and recreate a new one based on your custom table.
Best of luck.

What is the difference between Presentation server administrators and Admin

Hi Gurus,
In the groups in dashboard privileges, I can see two groups called Presentation Server Administrators and Administrators.
Can anyone tell me the difference between the two?
Regards,
Anurag

There is no such group as Administrators, that's a group someone created. The default group is Presentation Server Administrators.

Presentation Server Administrators

Hi,
Where can we find Presentation Server Administrators. I checked in admin tool in Manage->Security->Groups but could not find there?
Thanks.

In Admin tool you find Administrator.
Its catalog group. Answers->Settings->Manage Presentation Catalog Groups and Users
Search it by entering 'Presen' at Show users and groups and click search
Hope this in 10g.

Accounts used by application pools or service identities are in the local machine Administrators group.

I am getting the Warning: "Accounts used by application pools or service identities are in the local machine Administrators
group."
Using highly-privileged accounts as application pool or as service identities poses a security risk to the farm, and could allow
malicious code to execute. The following services are currently running as accounts in the machine Administrators group: SPUserCodeV4(Windows Service)
OSearch14(Windows Service)
SPSearch4(Windows Service)
WebAnalyticsService(Windows Service)
I understand that the users running these Windows Services must not
be a local administrator of the server. The user I have assigned for the aforementioned Windows Services are in the following Groups in the SharePoint Server:
IIS_IUSRS
Performance Monitor Users
WSS_ADMIN_WPG
WSS_RESTRICTED_WPG_V4
WSS_WPG
Which group must I remove the user from?

Since I used the same account for all; I am getting the following error message:
The server farm account should not be used for other services.
the account used for the SharePoint timer service and the central administration site, is highly privileged and should not
be used for any other services on any machines in the server farm. The following services were found to use this account: SharePoint - 80 (Application Pool)
SPUserCodeV4(Windows Service)
OSearch14(Windows Service)
SPSearch4(Windows Service)
Web Analytics Data Processing Service(Windows Service)
Should I use another non administrator account for farm Administrator?

Web Catalog Permissions - Everyone and Presentation Server Administrators

When you copy/paste new objects from one Web Catalog to another the default permissions are granted with Everyone having Read access and Presentation Server Administrators having Full Controll. Is there any setting/configuration to change that would allow this to only grant the Full Access to Presentation Server Administrators and not the Read to Everyone. Would appreciate any input, thanks.

Would appreciate any input, thanks.I don't think this is correct. What I see happening is that when you paste a folder it will get the permissions of the parent folder by default. So your parent folder must have Everyone = Read access and Presentation Server Administrators = Full Controll. So there isn't any default permissions, you just get whatever the parent folder has.

I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account. Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my account every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail. I cannot edit the outgoing server; how can I send emails?

I have an iMac, and have a Verizon DSL account (3 email addresses). Recently, my Mac Mail keeps requesting the passwords on my accounts every few minutes, and will not allow me to send messages using Mac Mail (the message says that the outgoing server was rejected. I cannot edit the outgoing server, and the keychain will not save my passwords (the ports are valid). How can I change the outgoing server to send emails, and how can I avoid having Mail request my passwords every 2 minutes? Verizon, as usual, will not provide support to iMacs.

Is there an email saved in your drafts or outbox folder? I suspect that Mail is continually trying to send it, and each time Google is rejecting the email message.
You can open the message and then delete it from your Outbox folder. Then try removing all @gmail email addresses from it and seeing whether you can send to the other folks. I suspect that will work.
With email, if an SMTP server *can* verify email addresses, sometimes it will and it will refuse to send messages. If a message has to be relayed across servers, no verification is done, and you'll get a bounce if an email address is bad.

Problem with downloading the internal table onto the presentation server.

Hey folks,
I have a problem where in i am downloading one year of sales done by the company. I wrote a program to download the file onto the presentation server . The error occurs in the FM GUI_DOWNLOAD where if the file exceeds 105843504 bytes its giving me a dump saying that
When the program was running , it was established that more memory was needed than the operating system is able to safely to provide.
The current program has to be terminted because of the program already requested 105843504 bytes from the operating system with malloc when the operating system reported after further memory request that there was no more memory space available.
Could somebody provide an alternative soltuion for this.
Its really urgent as i can download the file with 70,000,000 bytes
Regards
Rock

Hi Rock,
Please download the files on to Application Server, else as suggested by Ashish download into 2 or 3 files and merge them manually.
Declare same internal tables may be 5 times.
When you fill the internal table check for a counter and when you hit a certain number stop appending to it and start appending to the next.
After you are done so download all the internal tables.
I guess this would be a good way. I am not sure if there are any ther alternative good methods.
Hope this helps.

"Bad data format" when reading txt file from the presentation server

Hello,
I have a piece of code which reads a txt file from the presentation server to an internal table like below:
DATA : lv_filename type string.
lv_filename = 'C:\abap\Test.txt'. "I created a folder called abap under C:\
CALL method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_UPLOAD
EXPORTING
   FILENAME              = lv_filename
CHANGING
   DATA_TAB            = lt_tsd. " lt_tab has the exact same fields as the Test.txt's. Test.txt has only one line, tab delimited.
When running this code, exception BAD_DATA_FORMAT is issued.
Is it because of the file encoding or delimiter or other reason?
Thanks,
Yang

Hello,
If its tab delimited then use the has_field_seperator parameter and check
DATA : lv_filename type string.
lv_filename = 'C:\abap\Test.txt'. "I created a folder called abap under C:\

   FILENAME                = lv_filename

Reading file from the presentation server in the background

Hi,
I am trying to read a .csv file from the presentation server into an internal table in the background. what should I do for it? In the foreground it works fine.
I have declared a selection parameter 'p_file' that has the path of the file. It wokrs fine in the foreground and how to set it up in the background?
Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks in advance,
VG

hii
did you achieved the required functionality , i,e, accessing presentation server file i nbackground .
I too got the same requirement, can you explain the process.
There is no way you can do it... The best method is to put the file on Appln server and then call it in the background mode.
Regards,
Vishwa.

I have tried refreshing the user GUIDS, loading another rpd file in through EM that I know works fine in another environment, cleaning the permissions in the web catalog but all so dar have not resulted in me being able to start the presentation server.
I would welcome any feedback on this as it is driving me crazy!
Thanks in anticipation.

Editing the display time for grouped objects

Hello, I am having issues editing the display time for grouped items. I am using Captivate 7 and I love how now the grouped items only show as one item in the timeline because it reduces the number of rows visiblein the timeline for each object on a slide. However, now that the grouped objects no longer individually appear in the timeline, I can't make any display adjustments to the grouped objects as a whole.
Has anyone else had this issue and is there a work around? My main issue is that if I have to extend or shorten the audio for the slide, and I have assigned an advanced action to the grouped object, in order to adjust the grouped object to match the audio, I have to now ungroup, make the adjustment, regroup, then reset the advanced action using the new group name. It is frustrating and time consuming.

To expand and view the grouped items on the timeline, you need to click the Arrow symbol next to the group name. Once you expand, you can select the individual object and adjust the timings.
Alternatively, you can select the individual object of the group on the slide and adjust the timings from the Timing accordion. You can do this without ungrouping.

Cannot edit the smtp server list in Mail (Yosemite)

I am trying to edit the smtp server list in Mail. I am running Yosemite on my MacBook Pro and always get this message.
"The servers marked with alert icons are in conflict and cannot be saved. Two servers cannot share the same address and authentication settings. Resolve the conflicts and try again."
There are no alert icons displayed!!! And I can not delete a server.
I need to change some smtp-settings and cannot edit anything.
Any ideas?

Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Accounts.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Relaunch the application and try to recreate the account settings. If there's no change, quit again and put the item you moved back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Otherwise, delete the item you moved.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Get name of the presentation server

Hi,
How can I get the name of the presentation server (the name of the machine on which SAP Guia is installed)?
Is there any Function Module on ABAP that can return this information?
Thanks!

I think that is possible to do that only when the discussion was created with the flag "Mark this discussion as a question":
For some reason that I did not set the CheckBox in some of my questions.
Note that the last one I could close for example:
Sometimes the moderator unmark my discussion as a question and I don't get it.
Thank you very much!
