Primavera P6v7 use with Claim Digger

I'm having trouble getting Claim Digger to work correctly. Is Claim Digger only associated with the PMDB database or can I create other databases within primavera and have claim digger work?
Thanks for any help.

Try the following:
1. Look for the admin.cmd file, which is usually in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Primavera Common\Java\admin.cmd
2. Run admin.cmd
3. Login as privuser.
3. In the Database section of your current configuration, change the name of the database for the Instance 1 Database URL.
4. Click on "Save Changes" at the bottom right.
5. Log back into Project Management and run Claim Digger
Hope this helps!

SP 2013 Upgrade error - web application is configured with claims authentication mode however the content database you are trying to attach is intended to be used against a windows classic authentication mode.

Hi there,
I get this error when I perform a DB Attach upgrade from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013.
"web application is configured with claims authentication mode however the content database you are trying to attach is intended to be used against a windows classic authentication mode."
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

There is other way of fixing this issue apart from what Amit mentioned. Create a classic based web application in SP 2013 using PowerShell.
New-SPWebApplication -Name "TestApplication" -ApplicationPool "TestApplicationAppPool" -AuthenticationMethod "NTLM" -ApplicationPoolAccount (Get-SPManagedAccount "sppoc\spfarm") -Port 100 -URL "http://sp2013demo"
Now mount the content database from SP 2010 on to the web application created above
Mount-SPContentDatabase WSS_Content_100 -DatabaseServer SQL2012Demo -WebApplication http://sp2013demo:100
Once the mount is complete, convert the web application to use claims and migrate the user to use claims identity.
Convert-SPWebApplication -Identity "http://sp2013demo:100" -To Claims –RetainPermissions -Force
$w = Get-SPWebApplication "http://sp2013demo:100"
$w.MigrateUsers($True)
See my blog post about it: http://www.sharepointnadeem.com/2014/01/upgrade-from-sharepoint-2010-classic.html

Claim digger not working on P6 v7 SP1

I have used claim digger fairly regularly but suddenly has stopped working. Ever since I upgraded to v7 SP1 It has not worked. Anyone else had this problem
Regards

While my experience with V.7 is quite limited I have seen this in V.6 as well. It is generally a combination of things that resolves the problem some of which you may need IT assistance with if this is not a stand-alone database.
1.) Delete C:\Program Files\Common Files\Primavera Common\Java\BREBootStrap.xml
2.) Run C:\Program Files\Common Files\Primavera Common\Java\dbconfig.cmd and create a new configuration. (requires DB connection info and pubuser password)
3.) Run C:\Program Files\Common Files\Primavera Common\Java\admin.cmd and delete all existing configurations except the new one created in step 2. (requires privuser password)
4.) Run C:\Program Files\Common Files\Primavera Common\Java\dbconfig.cmd and create a new configuration. Assuming you deleted the "Primavera Configuration" in step 3 it should automatically name it this.
5.) Run C:\Program Files\Common Files\Primavera Common\Java\admin.cmd and delete the configuration you created in step 2.
6.) Open P6v7 and attempt to launch Claim Digger. Note that sometimes I have seen it open up behind the client app and have had to alt-tab to bring it to the front.
7.) If it now launches but prompts for a password you should be able to type in your information and connect. To prevent it from asking for a password in the future I have had to do the following:
a.) reset your P6 password to blank (as in no password).
b.) logout and back into P6 with no password.
c.) launch Claim Digger and it should open without prompting for a password.
d.) reset your P6 password back to whatever it was.
e.) logout and back into P6 with your changed password.
f.) test claim digger.
Note that these are the steps I use to resolve this in V.6. As we do not yet run V.7 I do not know if everything is the same.

Claim Digger Fix

i am having a problem when i try to run Claim Digger. i get an "An application event has been intercepted" Event Code TBREB-0670-3 error message.
i came across these posts:
Re: Claim digger event code 7cc307b6
Re: problem with client P6 install
which seemed to help them out. however, i have no idea what or where or how i would input:
*"according to note 913032.1 , i ran the following command and fixed the problem with importing.*
*INSERT into SETTINGS (namespace, setting_name, setting_value) values ('Administrator_Settings', 'JdbcConnectionURL', 'jdbc:sqlserver://FYITESTSVR:3574;database=PMDB_P6V7;'); "*
i am running P6 Project Management 7.0.0 Build: 92 with my Database being PMDB
thanks in advance,
Andre

Forget about that SQL statement below for now. The first two things I would look at are:
+"Event Code: TBREB-0670-3 When Updating Baseline or Launching Claim Digger. [ID 906605.1]"+
1.) Check your permissions on the client PC P6v7 is being launched from. If you are not a local administrator then you'll need full control of:
-\Common Files\Primavera Common\Java directory
-hkey_local_machine\Software\Primavera\CommonDir
+"Minimal Permissions To Folders And Registry Keys Necessary To Run P6 Version 7 (P6 v7) Client Applications [ID 1082738.1]"+
2.) Re-create the JRE configuration if you haven't already.

Claim Digger in P6

When I used Claim Digger for P3, I was able to see the
number of activities that missed their start or finish.
The new, "integrated" versio in P6 is missing this
feature. Your knowledgebase indicates that this is an
"enhancement request". My question is this - if it existed
previously, how is it an enhancement? Is this a case of
Primavera "dumbing down" the software so that they can
turn around and $ell it to me later? What a waste.

Hi,
Thanks for taking the time
to share your concern about the integrated version of
Claim Digger. The intent is not to "dumb down" the
software so we can sell more of it. Part of the issue
here is that Claim Digger for P3 was built on
technology that wasn't compatible with P6. This meant
we needed to re-code Claim Digger for P6. During this
process we tried to strike a balance between bringing
the core functionality to users quickly in P5 and P6
against against ensuring every feature from P3 made it
into the software.
I'm sorry
the functionality you enjoyed in the P3 version of
this tool isn't currently available. Enhancing the P6
version of Claim Digger will be considered along with
other P6 enhancements in the future. If you haven't
done so already, please click the link on the solution
asking that you be added to the enhancement request so
we can accurately track the number of customers who
want to see this feature included in future iterations
of the tool.
Sincerely,<br
/>Sean James

P6's Claim Digger vs original Claim Digger

Is the P6v7.0's Digger report static? Is it possible to alter the report in anyway, sort by Activity ID ascending, for example?
Will it export to Word or Excel?
Being relatively new to P6, I haven't spent a much time with it.
Hopefully the report's formatting and flexibility is better than what I've seen so far.
I bought the original Claim Digger 10 years ago for P3 comparisons; before Primavera bought it from HST. Great product. Invaluable.
Thanks!

keithc,
Claim Digger is a great tool for what it was designed for. Our version of CD in P6.7 has not been operational for a while due to an IS issue but we miss it often. It's like having your own data wizard in a box.
CD is able to export to MS Word or Excel. Also, the complete data analysis of a wide variety of changes is available in a text file for custom reporting.
Hope this info helps,

Claims Digger report - values for changes in duration/float/lags

When I compare two projects using Claims Digger, I always get results for changes in durations, float and lags in hours as opposed to days? Is there a setting that can fix this?
Please advise.
Thanks!

I think (not 100% sure) P6 is working as designed.
The basic unit of comparison in P6 is hours and not what is set in user preferences.
For example when you run a global change the basic unit used in calculations is hours.
Also when we enter duration in days, its actually been stored in database in hours and then converted to days using activity calendar in P6v7.

External hard drive to use with Time Machine? Thoughts? Mac newbie.

Hello. Switched to an imac and have loved the experience. Was just about to buy an external hard drive when apple announced the time capsule. I've been holding off thinking I would purchase one but now I'm re-thinking it.
Between music, videos and pictures, I currently have about 400gb of stuff (and it will grow). My main concern is backing up (archiving) a copy of these files. Backing up other system files is a second concern after that.
I'm thinking of buying a 1TB external hard drive, firewire capable, partitioning part of it to be an archive drive, and the other part to use with time machine. Skip the time capsule.
Will that work? Other recommendations?
If so, any recommendations on a quiet, reasonably sized (i.e. doesn't take up the entire corner of the desk), 1tb external hard drive?
Thanks.

Clayton, if you're only backing up one Mac, then you can purchase any good, reputable 750 GB or 1 TB external drive.
Considerations:
1) Reliability is key here. You want a drive that works. Various people have complained about Western Digital (me included), so take that into consideration.
2) Quiet is important. You have a quiet computer -- why louse up the working environment with a noisy drive?
3) FW (Firewire) 800 is faster than FW400, which is faster than USB. But once you get the initial backup done, it really doesn't matter how fast the drive is, because it works in the background and doesn't hamper your work. And if you DO need to restore your entire computer via Time Machine (I've done it), speed is less important than reliability. Even if it takes 3 hours, you'll be grateful. So while some may counsel you to get a 'fast' drive, reliability is more important.
4) On FW versus USB, you'll hear many claims. Again the key is reliability versus speed. A good USB drive is fine for what you are doing; FW is faster. Some folks have had problems with one or the other, so hear what they have to say.
5) Every drive dies. That's true for any electromechanical device. Don't think you've solved your backup problems by plugging in a drive and walking away. Your most critical files need a second backup, be it to a DVD, CD, thumb drive, network drive -- something. The more critical it is, the more backups you need. If you're writing your Ph.D. thesis, by definition you can't have too many backups
6) Convenience matters. You can 'roll your own' drive if you have experience -- buy a case, buy a drive, assemble, etc. But it's many times easier, particularly for a Time Machine backup drive, to just buy a reliable (there's that word again) external HD off the shelf.
7) Finally, follow directions. Apple tells you how to set up a TM drive. Do it their way. That means, format the brand new drive and make it a 'GUID' partition. Use the Apple Disk Utility. Follow directions.
Good luck,
Steve

Best hard drive for use with Time Machine

Hi,
Has anyone determined what the best external hard drive is for use with Time Machine? Is there a particular one that works exceptionally well with Time Machine, or is it much of a muchness?
I'm looking for a Firewire 400 & Firewire 800 drive that STAYS ON all the time, and doesn't automatically spin down or spin up like the rubbish WD My Book drives do.

I can't tell you if it is the "best" hard drive for you to use with TM, but I'm quite happy with the 500 GB Buffalo Technology DriveStation Combo TurboUSB I bought recently. It is quiet, quite inexpensive for the capacity (I paid about $120 for one on sale at Fry's), & completely compatible with OS X & TM.
Best of all for me, it automatically powers down when my iMac sleeps. It also spins down after a time if the Mac's Energy Saver preference "Put hard disk(s) to sleep when possible" is checked; otherwise it remains spun up until the Mac is put to sleep or switched off.
It comes with "Turbo" USB & Memeo "AutoBackup" software, neither of which I installed. (The box didn't claim these extras came in a Mac version but both Mac & Windows versions were included on the CD.) Out-of-the-box, I reformatted the drive with the Apple Partition Map scheme & two partitions, a 160 GB one for cloning my internal drive & the rest for TM. The drive works perfectly for both uses & seems quite fast, as one would expect from a 7200 rpm SATA drive.

What wireless headphones are best for use with ipad2?thanks

I am a computer newbie?!!! I had not owned a computer device of any any sort.( I know in this day and age) and I received an iPad 2 as a gift. I think my friends were tired of me asking to use their computer to receive e mail ,etc. Any way, questions galore!!! I do not even have an Internet connection in my house!! I have Dish TV and a cellular phone. NO land line . Which company is best ? Verizon ( I don't get FIOS)Optimum or? I am overwhelmed with claims of faster speeds etc. I know I have to buy a wireless ROUTER. Which is best. ALSO which WIRELESS HEADPHONES for when I go to the gym? Thanks for your help!!!!

Wireless headsets, in my opinion, never work as well as I would like. Motorola makes some designed for athletic use. I'd check reviews on Amazon. You're really going to take an iPad to the gym?!?

Unable to access claim digger in P6 Professional R8.3.2

Hi
I cannot access claim digger in P6 Professional R8.3.2. The programme shows the following message:
The selected application: c:\progra~1\java\jre1.7.0_15\bin\javaw.exe cannot be found.
How could this problem be solved?
Thanks

Hi,
P6 will use JAVA application to run Claim Digger. Based on the error, P6 cannot find the JAVA set in the JAVA_HOME to run javaw.exe. Please set the right JAVA_HOME variable in the environment variable so P6 can find Java and then run claim digger,
Regards,
Pablo

Trouble in Claim Digger

Hi, i am not able to run claim digger in P6.2. the error message says " unable to access jarfile C:/" can anybody guide me on what to do?

Hi,
Normally the error would be more like "Unable to access jarfile C:\Program Files\Primavera\Project Management\Claim Digger\prm-cd.jar when launching Claim Digger"
If that is the fill error message you are getting then it is just because it is looking for a folder called Claim Digger that is currently named Schedule Comparison. To fix this you just need to rename the folder Schedule Comparison to Claim Digger.
If the error message you are getting is cut off at C:\ then it is possible that the registry entry is currently incorrect.
I only have P6r8 and they have changed the registry for this area of the product but you should be able to go to Regedit and go to
HKLM\Software\Primavera (if you are on a 64bit operating system then it will probably be HKLM\Software\Wow6432node\Primavera).
Hunt through the subfolders and there should be one in there called Claim Digger that has a parameter for the location of the jar file - set this to the same as the path's i've shown above (confirm exactly which one you have currently).
After that change is made, start P6 again and try claim digger again.
Regards
Alex
