Problem creating an EAC agent only instance.

I am trying to create an Oracle endeca EAC agent only instance..
Here is my setup
EAC Central Server: MDEX, Platform services(Application Controller + EAC agent), ToolsAndFramework, CAS
EAC agent only instance: MDEX, Platform services(EAC agent).
On the central server
1. I updated the AppConfig.xml and liveDgraphCluster file, adding the definition for dgraph of EAC agent only instance.
Heres my Appconfig file
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3VI_HjGO-qUd21aVFVPX2s3Sms/view
and my liveDgraphCluster.xml
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3VI_HjGO-qUQ0NGTjB0VU1LT3M/view
2. Ran runcommand.sh --update-definition.
3. Ran initialize_services. I'm not using deploy.bat for deploy the application(I just run initialize_services.bat(is it enough?))
4. Ran runcommand.sh DistributeIndexAndApply
5. Then I run the baseline indexing on central server(successful).
The DB table is not getting indexed onto EAC agent only instance. Only the folder structure are being created. C:\Endeca\Apps\ATGen\logs\dgraphs\DgraphB1
C:\Endeca\Apps\ATGen\data\dgraphs\DgraphA1\dgraph_input\updates
(only these 2 folders and they both are empty) I check the baseline update log and here's the part of the log that I found odd...
INFO: Publishing Workbench 'live' configuration to MDEX 'DgraphA1'
INFO: 'LiveDgraphCluster': no available config to apply at this time, config is created by exporting a config snapshot.
INFO: Publishing Workbench 'live' configuration to MDEX 'DgraphB1'
INFO: 'LiveDgraphCluster': no available config to apply at this time, config is created by exporting a config snapshot.
Please Help Me!

Heres my dgraph log on EAC agent only instance

  • How do I populate 0CCMSATPH for ABAP only instance

    Hi All,
    I have inherited a SAP Solution Manager installation and I am trying to configure the system correctly.
    In an Early watch report for one of our ABAP only systems (ERP6) it states
    Reading performance data from BW returned neither data nor an error code. A timeout may have occurred.
    Infocube: 0CCMSMTPH used in section 'Workload Overview <SID>'.
    So I determined that this related to End to End Analysis and configured SOLMAN accordingly and am now getting data for SOLMAN itself in this cube but nothing else.  I also determined that the Extractor WA (STATISTICAL RECORDS SECONDARY EXTRACTOR-0CCMSATPH) from Extractor FWK Administration is responsible for this data.
    So my question is this, where does this extractor come from as I don't appear to have this extractor for the ABAP system it's complaining about?
    SMS uses SMDAgent but that's because it's a dual stack system but for an ABAP only system surely this isn't required, if this is where the extractor comes from?
    Also a related issue, in the log for this extractor for SOLMAN it has the following message "DL: Warning: Component not found in Target Structure:0INFOPROV".  What is this and should I be concerned?
    Thanks
    Craig

    Does this topology/configuration make sense? Yes.
    To set up "agent only" instance:
    1] Install MDEX,
    2] Install PlatformServices (answer N for running EAC),
    3] On Central server update AppConfig.xml (add definition for new dgraph),
    4] On Central server "runcommand.sh --update-definition"
    5] Install Deployment Template by running deploy.sh (answer N for integrate with Workbench),
    6] Start ECA, which starts dgraph - $ENDECA_ROOT/tools/server/bin/startup.sh (Make sure you don't have eca.xml in $ENDECA_CONF/conf/Standalone/localhost)
    7] On Central server "initialize_services.sh",
    8] On Central server "runcommand.sh DistributeIndexAndApply"
    Is the agent only server suppose to also have Workbench and/or our application (configuraitons)?No and no.
    How does the Control server know there is another instance which is running with just an EAC agent?The AppConfig.xml on the Central server instance needs to be updated. Don't use the Workbench EAC admin console to do this. Only use that interface for stop/start and monitoring. Any permanent config changes you should make to AppConfig.xml by hand.
    How is the dgraph process on the agent only instance started?$ENDECA_ROOT/tools/server/bin/startup.sh
    How do I "turn on" an EAC agent only instance/server?

    Hi
    I am sure, it is logically incorrect, how you deploy byte code agent in abap only instance
    Introscope Bytecode Agent runs on managed systems based on J2EE engines to report data to the Introscope Enterprise Manager, so it has to be setup only for Java Stacks.
    Please check with the wily config guide again.
    I am watching this thread for further view from others.
    Thanks,

  • Problem in creating an Scheduler agent as a Windows Service

    I tryed to create an scheduler agent as a Service Windows in using Agentservice.bat .
    In my dev environment it works well.
    But when I try in my Prod one I have the following error message :
    FATAL | wrapper | The argument 'Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_13\bin\java.exe' is not a
    valid property name-value pair.
    The command I pass is the following :

    The Agent has been created in the Topology.
    And when I launch it as a simple agent with the agentscheduler.bat it works fine
    (agentscheduler "-port=20910" "-name=AGENT_SCHEDULER" "-v=5")
    I don't understand....
    If someone have an idea.

  • How to create one node for multiple instances of hardware

    I want a single minor device node to act as the interface to all instances of my hardware, in this case a co-processor chip on the     PCI bus. For the number of chips found at boot time, I want requests to be dispatched, one per chip, in a round-robin. Is this possible?
    I suppose one approach to solving the problem could be to set a static flag in the xxattach function (accessible to xxattach only). In xxattach the flag is set after creating the first and only node and a list of the chips is built on subsequent calls to xxattach. Xxioctl calls would have the same minor number, which could be ignored, and the command dispatched to the next chip in the list. A single node solution is preferable to a driver modification.
    Thanks

    I think you're going about this backwards.
    Make the driver be a "normal" driver, with one instance per chip.
    Then make a user-space demon that round-robins requests between available hardware.
    Or have a second pseudo-driver handle arbitration.
    Either way, dont try to shoe-horn the driver framework from another OS, onto solaris. That's what I presume you meant by "A single node solution is preferable to a driver modification."

  • How do you add a new machine as an agent only to be seen by the server....?

    I'm fairly new to this but I'm starting to get the hang of it. I configured what I call a sysadmin server to serve as a SunMC-4.0, Console, Agent & Server. I can connect to the server and I see all the Modules and what's
    running to I'm good there.
    Where I am having a problem is that I setup on a second Solaris 10 box as just an agent box, configured it and started it sucessfully. Pointed it at the 1st machine (the server) and all seems well.
    My problem is when I start the console on the server (machine #1) it still only sees itself not the second machine. I have looked through all the doc's that I have and there is nothing really on setting this up? A lot on jumpstart etc.
    but I just want to setup about 10 machine as agents (only) and use the one server machine to see them all. If someone could point me in the right direction I would much appreciate it.
    Thanks,
    Tom

New Agents don't automatically populate themselves into the Console, you need to either tell SunMC about them (i.e. specify their hostname/IP) or have it scan a range of IPs to find it for you. For just a few systems you can probably just enter them as you go: [Edit --> Create Object|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5417/6n7gj8249?l=en&a=view]
    For larger installs many people also script the creation of icons using the SunMC CLI to make their life easier. If you're interested send me an email and I can point you to a sample script.
    Congrats on starting to use SunMC, it's a fantastic tool!

  • Work Items to PR Agents (Only one of two agents received)

    Dear all,
    I am facing a problem like this:
    In my PR Workflow, the task TS00007986 is assigned agents by position. There is one position applied for a particular release strategy and there are two agents under this position.
    Now, there is one PR created, it went to the correct release strategy and thus sent to the correct agent. However, only one of the agent is receiving that work item while the other don't. In another words, instead of sending to both the agents, only one received.
    In SWEL, the possible agents are showing both agents' names, but the icon "In User's Inbox" is only appearing on one of the agent.
    I would like to know, what would be the possible error for this and in such cases, how could I trace the errors?
    Thank you very much in all advances.

    Here's an update on this issue:
    For example, the two agents are Agent A and Agent B.
    I think Agent A and Agent B both received the work items. However, Agent A executed the work item but later canceled the action without processing the work item (approved or rejected the PR). When Agent A executed the work item, the same work item would be removed from Agent B's inbox, but it is still in Agent A's inbox.
    The problem is, the work item has yet to be processed. In this case, how this issue should be solved (only processed work item is removed from all the agents' inbox)?
    Thank you very much.

  • Problem creating a new spfile on a standby database.

    I'm running an oracle 9.2.0.8 physical standby where I've changed some parameters creating a new pfile. The instance is working fine with this pfile, but I want to use an spfile. To do this, I've cancelled recovery, created a new spfile from the current pfile and shutdown the instance. Then the problem appears when I mount the instance. I check the parameters I've changed in the pfile and these changes are not present on my "new" spfile. If I take a look to spfile parameter...., my instance is running with old one! Do you have any suggestion about how to fix this?
    Thanks in advance.

    >
    Did You restarted instance in order to use a new changed pfile?
    And only after that created spfile?
    >
    Yes, I've restarted the instance to use the new pfile, and also after create the new spfile.
    >
    What You mean with "take a look to spfile parameter"?
    You checked out and saw that database is still using pfile?
    >
    I've executed the following sentence:
    "show parameter spfile"
    and the output shows me that the file in use was the old one.
    >
    If you don't specify on startup what file to use spfile or pfile then oracle automaticaly looks into $ORACLE_HOME/dbs and search in this order:
    * spfileSID.ora
    * spfile.ora
    * initSID.ora
    * init.ora
    Do you have under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs spfileSID.ora or spfile.ora?
    >
    I've the following files under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs:
    * spfileSID.ora (that's the new spfile)
    * initSID.ora (that's the old spfile)
    * initxxxxx.ora (that's my custom pfile)
    I've created the new spfile with my standby database on mount state, with the following sentence:
    "create spfile from pfile"
    When I restart the instance and try to mount it (using the new spfile), I get an ORA-00214 error.
    So, I'm still running with my custom pfile.

  • Problems Creating PDFs

    A lot of problems creating PDFs come from using the wrong printer to create the PDF or underlying printfile.
    You should use Adobe's Distiller printer instance to create a PDF. This comprises the latest Adobe Postscript printer for your operating system plus the Distiller PPD.
    Don't use an HP printer to create your PDF. PostScript, or otherwise.
    Don't use a Xerox printer to create your PDF. PostScript or otherwise.
    See #1.
    Note: If you are outputting to a service bureau, you might want to use something other than the Distiller printer instance. However, if you encounter problems with your particular PDFs, try using the official method with the Distiller printer to see whether any problems are limited just to your setup. If problems persist, you might have to create your PostScript output using one printer driver and the PDF using Adobe's Distiller printer instance.
    Common problems include:
    Black and white, or greyscale, PDFs created from color FrameMaker books and documents.
    Distiller terminating the PDF creation process early, thus no PDF is created.
    Troubleshooting:
    For lack-of-color problems, first check you don't have Spot as Black set in the Frame Print dialog.
    Update the printer you are using to the latest Adobe PostScript printer driver version.
    Uninstall the printer you are using to create PDFs and to reinstall the latest version from scratch.

    FAQ: Creating PDF Files from FrameMaker Documents -- Why you should not use "save as PDF"! -- Windows & MacOS Only!
    Dov Isaacs - 07:02pm Dec 6, 2001 Pacific
    An issue that has come up over and over again on several FrameMaker and Acrobat/PDF email lists as well on the corresponding Adobe User-to-User forums is that of creation of PDF files. FrameMaker 5.5.6 and 6 have what looks like a convenient feature that is supposed to allow you to create PDF files via simply saving the document as a PDF file. I have gone on record as advising end-users not to use this approach for reliable creation of PDF files from FrameMaker documents under Windows and MacOS with FrameMaker 6 and earlier. Why do I most vociferously offer this advice and why doesn't the problem get fixed? And how SHOULD you create PDF files from FrameMaker?
    GOOD NEWS
    I will start with the good news. The "next major version" of FrameMaker will indeed have "save as PDF" re-implemented in a manner that it will be as reliable as printing to the "Acrobat Distiller" printer instance under Windows or the "Create Adobe PDF" desktop printer under MacOS. I am personally working with the FrameMaker development organization to make sure this really happens and is fully and properly tested and debugged! Furthermore, this next major revision of FrameMaker, unlike FrameMaker 6, will come with a Distiller installer that will properly install the "Acrobat Distiller" printer instance under Windows and the "Create Adobe PDF" desktop printer on the Macintosh (of course assuring that the latest PostScript driver is also automatically and correctly installed).
    DON'T USE "SAVE AS PDF"
    But what's wrong with "save as PDF" as currently implemented?
    The following are some of the SYMPTOMS reported over the last few years by FrameMaker users that were traced back to use of "save as PDF" under FrameMaker:
    (1) No PDF file is produced at all, possibly with a log file showing not-readily apparent PostScript errors during distillation.
    (2) The PDF file "loses" color in images. All or some images (raster, bitmap images, NOT vector artwork) appear in the PDF file in grayscale.
    (3) The resultant PDF file is on the wrong paper size, i.e., the document's logical page size does not match the output page size as seen in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader.
    (4) Some or all text in the resultant PDF file is blotchy looking or overly bold.
    (5) Some or all text in the resultant PDF file cannot be searched or indexed.
    (6) Some or all text in the resultant PDF file appears in Courier or in some other substitution font.
    (7) Interword or intercharacter spacing is a bit irregular in the resultant PDF file.
    (8) Content is missing in the margin areas of the page, i.e. you cannot do full-page bleeds.
    (9) Some or all page content is missing (other than margin areas).
    (10) Relatively inefficient PDF is generated.
    If this list by itself isn't enough for you, please note that some of these symptoms are very subtle and may escape attention when the PDF is first viewed or printed. Oftimes, it is when one attempts to manipulate the PDF file in Acrobat or repurpose its content or even view or print on a system other than the one on which the PDF file was created, that some of these symptoms make themselves obnoxiously visible (or invisible in some cases I won't make any bad jokes here about graphic examples!).
    It is important to understand that FrameMaker does NOT have its own native ability to create PDF. Any and all PDF created from FrameMaker documents is actually done by creating PostScript via the PostScript driver and having the Acrobat Distiller create PDF from that PostScript. The only exception to this is creation of PDF via the Acrobat PDFWriter driver, which is likewise not recommended (see below).
    In order for "save as PDF" to work correctly, FrameMaker must do the equivalent of calling Printer Setup and selecting the "Acrobat Distiller" printer instance under Windows or the "Create Adobe PDF" desktop printer under MacOS followed by setting the driver's options correctly for paper size, page range, etc., followed by sending the proper commands to the driver to create PostScript.
    Contrary to popular belief, PostScript as generated by the Windows and MacOS PostScript drivers is VERY device-dependent. The information in the PPD file associated with a printer driver instance provides critical parameters for generation of PostScript including:
    Whether the printer supports color (Acrobat Distiller does)
    What PostScript language level is supported (Acrobat Distiller 4.x and Acrobat Distiller 5.x are both PostScript language level 3)
    Whether native TrueType support is available (Acrobat supports native TrueType as Type 42 fonts)
    Available binary communications (Acrobat Distiller supports pure binary and ASCII, but NOT TCP, TBCP, or PJL)
    Resident fonts (Acrobat Distiller doesn't really have resident fonts)
    Available paper sizes and custom paper size availability (Acrobat Distiller supports a wide range of predefined sizes and continually variable "custom" sizes up to 200" by 200")
    Margins / printable areas (for PDF and the Acrobat Distiller, there are no margins in which imaging is not permitted)
    Device resolution (Acrobat Distiller can be set to any value from 72 to 4000 dpi; as a convenience, the Acrobat Distiller PPD provides a series of values for use by the driver. Since there is no inherent "resolution" of a PDF file, this parameter is used only for purposes of allowing PostScript programs that query for such a value to be satisfied and for the driver to be able to communicate this value to the operating system and/or application as required.)
    Paper handling (totally irrelevant to Acrobat Distiller if input or output tray selection via "setpagedevice" is found in the PostScript stream, it is ignored by Acrobat Distiller)
    Thus, if the wrong printer driver instance is selected (i.e., it isn't associated with the Acrobat Distiller PPD file) or that driver instance is improperly configured, improper PostScript will result and one or more of the symptoms described above can occur. As currently implemented, FrameMaker depending upon version will not necessarily choose the correct printer driver instance and/or correctly parameterize the print job via driver setup options. In fact, FrameMaker 5,5,6 might even try to generate PDF via calling a PCL driver, FAX driver, or even a non-PostScript inkjet printer!
    DON'T USE PDFWRITER
    The Acrobat PDFWriter is a relic of older versions of Acrobat. In fact, it is no longer installed by default in the "easy install" or the "typical install" of Acrobat 5. It hasn't really be updated since Acrobat 3 and only supports PDF 1.2. It is a GDI (Windows) / QuickDraw (MacOS) driver that directly generates PDF without any intermediary PostScript. Since it is not a PostScript printer driver, applications cannot pass through EPS graphics and/or PDFMark information (used for a wide variety of purposes by FrameMaker). For EPS graphics, most applications will send the low resolution TIFF (or PICT) EPS header in lieu of the PostScript text, if they send anything at all, to the driver. Forget about links, structure, or any other PDF "goodies." Expect that PDFWriter will fully "bite the dust" in the next major version of Acrobat.
    SO HOW DO I GENERATE PDF FILES FROM FRAMEMAKER 6 & EARLIER?
    The ONLY method that is really reliable for producing PDF files with FrameMaker 6 and earlier requires the generation of PostScript via a properly set printer driver instance associated with the Acrobat Distiller PPD and distillation of the resultant PostScript by Acrobat Distiller.
    Case 1: FrameMaker and the Full Acrobat 4.05 or Acrobat 5.0x Products
    PDF file from a "chapter" -- print directly to the Acrobat Distiller printer instance (Windows) or the Create Adobe PDF desktop printer (MacOS) already installed by Acrobat. If you check the "Acrobat data" option, then make sure to UNcheck the "print to file" option that gets set at the same time. As a result, the driver will automatically send the generated PostScript to the Distiller for you and delete the intermediate PostScript when done.
    PDF file from a "book" -- print directly to the Acrobat Distiller printer instance with the "print to file" option checked (Windows) or the Virtual Printer desktop printer (MacOS) associated with the Distiller PPD (see details below under Case 2/MacOS). You will need to manually process the resultant PostScript file through the Distiller (or use a "watched folder" arrangement).
    In both the above sub-cases, the default driver options generally will be OK, but check on paper size and communication protocol (Use pure binary, not ASCII, for optimal performance AND no CTRL-D characters under Windows. Make sure to set Level 3 only and Binary under MacOS. Font inclusion "All" for Acrobat 4.05 and "None" for Acrobat 5 under MacOS.). With Acrobat 4.05, make sure you preset the Distiller to use the joboptions you want. With Acrobat 5, you can set this on a job-by-job basis via the driver printer setup interface (or print dialog on MacOS).
    Case 2: FrameMaker 6 and the Bundled Acrobat 4.05 Distiller
    Windows -- Create a new printer driver instance using the latest version of the Adobe Universal PostScript Driver Installer, downloadable from Adobe's web site AND the Acrobat Distiller PPD file (located in the XTRAS subdirectory of the Distiller directory). This driver instance should be set to print to the local port named "FILE:". Name this driver instance as "Acrobat Distiller". The default driver options generally will be OK, but check on paper size and communication protocol (use pure binary, not ASCII, for optimal performance AND no CTRL-D characters). Make sure you preset the Distiller to use the joboptions you want. Print directly to this Acrobat Distiller printer instance. Make sure that the "print to file" option is checked. You will need to manually process the resultant PostScript file through the Distiller (or use a "watched folder" arrangement).
    MacOS -- Install the latest version of AdobePS 8.7.x, downloadable from Adobe's web site. In FrameMaker, go to Page Setup and select the "Virtual Printer" and go to the "Virtual Printer" window pane. Select the Acrobat Distiller PPD file (located in the XTRAS subfolder of the Distiller folder). Print directly to the "Virtual Printer" (Make sure to set Level 3 only, Binary, and font inclusion "All".). Make sure you preset the Distiller to use the joboptions you want. You will need to manually process the resultant PostScript file through the Distiller (or use a "watched folder" arrangement).
    Case 3: Acrobat 3
    Acrobat 3 is not officially supported for the latest OS versions and I personally would no longer recommend its use for generation of PDF files given that Acrobat 5.0.5 is the current version of Acrobat.

  • Problem creating container for filter entity

    Hi,
    I have a working API gateway instance (11.1.2.1.0). But from today when I tried to access to it using my policy studio, it gives me this embarrassing error. It worked well, and the gateway instance itself is serving well.
    I can stop and start the gateway instance including the node manager.
    Only from today suddenly my policy studio cannot access to the gateway any more. Any idea? The policy studio can access to other gateway instances in the same version.
    I tried to access from another policy studio in a different machine. Same error.
    It seems the error shows up at the last step to loading filters.
    There must be a dirty stuff in my existing deployment, but it is working well and I have no idea how to clean it up.

    Hi,
    This does happen sometimes and usually its enough to just exit Policy Studio and connect again. If that does not work you can delete everything in your C:/OAG-11.1.2.1.0/oagpolicystudio/configuration/workspace folder (backup before doing anything) as this is just a temporary storage.
    This could also could mean you somehow have managed to get an corrupt deployment (It might load ok in the actual API Server) that fails to load in Policy Studio. In the bin folder there is a esexplorer.bat file, this tool allow you edit configurations in raw format and if you find the error you could try fix it there.
    Cheers,
    Stefan

  • When placing a PDF created with Distiller, I only get Crop and Media as import options -- I need it to crop to the Trim! PLEASE HELP!

    I'm having a MAJOR problem placing PDF files in InDesign CS4...
    When I try to place a PDF that has been created in Distiller, the ONLY import options I can choose are CROP and MEDIA. I need it to crop to the TRIM, but that option is grayed out. The PDFs I'm trying to place were created in-house, and converted from Post Script files to PDFs using Distiller. We use PDF/X-1a equivalent settings when creating our PDFs.
    If I export the file as a PDF and then try to place it into a CS4 file, I am able to select Trim as an option.
    ALSO, if I open the Distiller PDF in Acrobat and then save it (without changing anything), I am able to select Trim as an option. A workaround I have found is to open all of the PDF files in Acrobat, save them to my desktop, and then save over the ones I need to place. Here's the problem with that: I work for a publishing company, and need to place hundreds of ads for each issue of our publications, and it adds a lot of time if I have to go and re-save everything just to be able to place all the ads. 
    Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I need to get this figured out so we can use CS4 for all of our publications again. -- We've gone back to using CS3 until I can get this figured out...
    - Valerie

    Steve,
    Thanks for the reply, but my PDFs all have trim boxes on them. If I try to place the same PDF in InDesign CS3, it gives me Trim as an option. Also, if I open the PDF and save a copy to my desktop, I am able to select Trim as an option when placing the PDF, and I didn't change anything about it.
    I've been trying to see if it's something with the Print Preset settings I'm using, but I can't find anything that seems like it would affect how InDesign would read the Trim area of the PDF.
    I've attached 2 PDF files. One that was created with Distiller, and one that was exported from InDesign CS4. The Distiller one doesn't show Trim as an option in CS4, but the exported one does.... but they started out as the same ad.  Ugh!  Help me please!

  • Problem creating Allocation Table with Reference to a PO

    Dear Folks,
    I am having problems creating an allocation table with reference to a PO in T-code WA01.
    I read the SAP help that some prerequisites need to exist:
    ==> You can only reference order items flagged as being relevant to a stock split (the Allocation table relevant indicator in the additional item data).
    Can anyone advice me where to find this stock split indicator?
    Also, can anyone advice me how to reuse an allocation table? For example, I had previously created an allocation table with many articles and various allocation rules. I already generated follow on documents for this table.
    Say after 2 weeks, I have the similar requirements that I can make use of the same table, only with minor adjustments to the quantity. How do I create a new allocation table using the existing allocation table data?
    Thanks and Regards
    Junwen

    Any idea please?
    thanks

  • Problems creating new Web Dynpro ABAP application

    All,
    I am following this tutorial to create my first Web Dynpro ABAP application
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/fc/501b42b5815133e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
    In this tutorial I was asked to create a component as Local object.
    But after giving the name of the component, I get an alert saying
    "Object can only be created in SAP Package"
    When I confirm this, I was shown a "Create Object Directory entry" dialog box which asks for attributes like Package.
    And this box has Local Object button, when clicked I get the message "Test Objects cannot be created in foreign namespaces".
    I found some other article through Google
    http://www.octavia.de/fileadmin/octavia_files/content_bilder/Hauptnavigation/SAP_NetWeaver/WebDynpro/Web_Dynpro_Part_I.pdf
    According to this, I tried to give $TMP as Package. But still have the same error
    "Test Objects cannot be created in foreign namespaces"
    Where am I and what should I do to create a new project?
    Thanks.

    Thanks Abinav.
    My problem is with naming convention only. Component name starting with Z solved my problem.

  • Problem creating hierarchy based on 2 physical dimension tables

    I'm having a problem creating 1 logical dimension with a drill-down hierarchy, based on two separate physical dimension tables. The errors I receive when navigating the drill-down hierarchy is:
    "Cannot find logical table source coverage for logical columns" &
    "Missing join between logical tables".
    I'm using OBIEE 10.1.3.4
    Here are the details of what I have setup sofar:
    Physical layer:
    Dimension table DIM_ORG with columns:
    -dimension_key
    -org_total_code
    -org_total_description
    -org_detail_code
    -org_detail_description
    Dimension table DIM_DEPT with columns:
    -dimension_key
    -dept_total_code
    -dept_total_description
    -dept_detail_code
    -dept_detail_description
    Fact table FACT_SALES with columns:
    -fk_org
    -fk_dept
    -sum_sales
    Physical Joins:
    FACT_SALES.fk_org = DIM_ORG_dimension_key
    FACT_SALES.fl_dept = DIM_DEPT.dimension_key
    Business Model & Mapping layer:
    I created a logical dimension ORG_DEPT. It contains two logical table sources (DIM_ORG & DIM_DEPT) and the following logical columns:
    - All Departments (mapped to dept_total_code)
    - Organisation (mapped to org_detail_description)
    - Organisation Number (mapped to org_detail_code)
    - Department (mapped to dept_detail_description)
    - Department Code (mapped to dept_detail_code)
    The business logical key is based on the combination of Organisation Number & Department Code
    The hierarchy I need is: All Departments -> Organisation -> Department so I created the following hierarchy for ORG_DEPT:
    - Total Level containing: All Departments
    - Organisation Level containing: Organisation Number (defined as the Logical level key) & Organisation (defined als the Drill level key)
    - Detail Department Level containing: Department Code (defined as Logical level key) and Department (defined as Drill level key).
    In the LTS of the dimension ORG_DEPT I've set the Content levels for the sources:
    DIM_ORG : Organisation Level
    DIM_DEPT: Detail Department Level
    In the LTS no -inner- joins have been added against related physical tables.
    I created a logical fact table SALES (based on the physical fact table) and joined it against the logical dimension table ORG_DEPT.
    In the LTS the Content level for ORG_DEPT is set against the Detail Department Level. No - inner- joins have been aded against related physical tables.
    When I create a report in Answers to test the hierachy and select only 'All Departments' I get the correct dimension value returned. When I try to drill to the next level I get the following ODBC error:
    "Cannot find logical table source coverage for logical columns: [All Departments]. Please check more detailed level keys are mapped correctly".
    When I create a report in Answers and select both 'All Departments' and 'Sales' I get the correct result. When I try to drill to the next level I get a different ODBC error:
    "Missing join between logical tables DIM_DEPT and DIM_DEPT: There must be at least one physical join link between the underlying physical tables".
    Any suggestions are welcome!
    Thanks!

    Hello Robert,
    Your suggestions were known to me but I still wanted to combine the two physical dimension tables in one logical dimension. So I've played around a bit more and found the solution: In my original setup I had two seperate logical table sources (one for each physical dimension table). The solution was to combine the two logical table sources in one logical table source. I achieved that by logical joining the DIM_DEPT table to the FACT_SALES table and subsequently to the DIM_ORG within the 1 LTS and using inner joins.
    Then I created the logical table key (a combination of org_detail_code & dept_detail_code). After that I could create the hierarchy with no problem.
