Hi All,
We are also having similiar type of error in our portal.
com.sap.engine.services.prtbridge##com.sap.engine.services.prtbridge
#######SAPEngine_System_Thread[impl:5]_13##0#0#Error#1#/System/Server#Plain###
The cluster server element 125898350 is not added in the EP cluster context,
because prtbridge on 125898350 is stopped or not yet started
(maybe the server is starting or shuting down).
We have implemented the FPN using RRA.
This error comes only for few users when they navigate in Portal. After clearing the cache, it works for all. Kindly help us to resolve this issue.

Running Discoverer reports into portal using SSO portal login - help

Hi,
I am trying to run disco reports into oracle portal using discoverer portlet providers -list of worksheet. What I want to achieve is as follows
1) login to portal using SSO userid /pwd - Done
2) Enable discoverer for SSO - Done
*3) Use discoverer list of worksheets to show reports into portal but want to filter the list of worksheet to currently logged in portal user. This so that users looged in only sees the reports to which they have access in discoverer - Need Help*
*4) Once user runs this report then I want to filter the discoverer data based on users login or portal group - Help*
Can someone please help with issue no 3/4 urgently.
Mant thanks
Ganesh

Hi Michael,
Assuming I have created the private connections using CAPI I still have my doubts as follows
Do I have to then login as each portal user and add the list of worksheet portlet for each user and selecting
"check the box called Display a different list of worksheets by allowing users to customize database connection and then check Show a default list of worksheets using connection, changing the connection to user's connection."
Considering we have 500+ users this will be huge cumbersom task for me.
Also when I tried to do this before loggin as each portal user when I logged in as second portal user I could see the list of worksheet portalet added by the first user which means I have to edit it but even that was not possible because it would not let me edit as only the page own whi created the portlet was allowed to edit (that is the first user)
OR
Do you have to give portal user permission to edit the page so that they can log on themselve to add the list of worksheet portlet on the page by selecting their private connection and selecting
"check the box called Display a different list of worksheets by allowing users to customize database connection and then check Show a default list of worksheets using connection, changing the connection to user's connection."
Finally I know someone has made it work using URL links and it works as follows
1) Map the portal and disco user into a table
2) Create disco private connections
3) when portal user loggs in and click on "Show my discoverer report" it then runs a PL/SQL package which in turn identifies the private connection details and creates a URL out of it as follows
[http://portal.ccm.ac.uk/discoverer/app/partialConnect?password=IRTIMUDV123_=qplus=VDUMITRI=browser_selected=connect=RELATIONAL=QPRIS=viewer]
clicking on this link open discoverer with private list of workbook/worksheet.
Please advise which way should I follow.
Thanks

Launching discoverer reports from portal, limitation..

Hi, I have already discussed this matter via a metalink SR to find that portal cannot launch a discoverer report using discoverer plus, but I have also been referred here by the metalink people so 'product management' can clarify whether the functionality we are seeking is never going to be implemented or if it may be in planning for the near future.
Specifically, the users want to be able to launch the discoverer reports in discoverer plus, through a portal application accessed on their browsers. (instead of discoverer viewer).
Thanks

Actually there is, we just had to work the metalink guys a bit harder. We found this in the Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Configuration
Guide.pdf (as found at http://download.oracle.com/docs/pdf/B13918_03.pdf)
Page 212 of 304:
13.5.3 Example 3: Starting Discoverer Plus
To start Discoverer Plus, connect automatically as jchan to the Sales EUL, open
a worksheet called January Analysis in a workbook called Monthly nalysis, you
might use the following URL:
http://<host.domain>:<port>/discoverer/plus?cn=cf_a156&opendbid=MONTHLY_
ANALYSIS&sheetid=179
So as the documentation claimed it to be a feature, we saught further help as the link structure above didn't quite work for us.
It was assigned to development and a patch was released: Patch# 5403717
Info:
Use a new URL parameter 'workbooksource' after the patch has
been applied.
URL Guide:
http://<server>:<port>/discoverer/plus?cn=< >&opendb=<WokrbookName>&wo

Hope that helps..

Problem while opening the BI reports in Portal Favourites

Hi All,
While trying to add a BI report in Portal Favourites, I am able to add the reports in portal favourites but when I click the reports(inside Portal Favourites) to open it , it will not open the reports but opens the very first page of the portal which we get after login to portal.
Please tell me how can I open the respective reports which I added in portal favourites.
Thanks,
Sourabh

Doesnt seem to appear as a portal issue neither it is a reader issue. Might be some issues with the network which isnt allowing the entire file to get downloaded and hence causing the browser to hang.
Thanks,

Discoverer Reports with Portal- Report in Memory

Hi-
I have Discover reports on a dashboard looking portal page. I use page parameters to populate the reports. The thing is, when I navigate to that page after I log in, the last report I generated on the last login is still up and the parameters dont match. The parameters default back to the 1st ones in the LOV.
Is there any way to have a blank discoverer portlet, and not have the report up when I navigate to the page, until I submit the parameters?
Also...off topic...can a simple parameter form have a LOV of values that are dynamic? A sql statement? Right now I am hardcoding them in a LOV.
Thanks!!

1. I believe the parameters will always display what was used in the last run. Is this what you're asking?
2. Yes, a LOV can be associated with a table or view no problem. The simplest way to do it is to create a complex folder in the EUL (Admin version) that has the simple SQL you want to run. For example, it might be something such as:
folder name: cust_lov
select distinct customer_name from cust_table where cust_date >= '01-JAN-2006';
Then you would associate any item in any folder to use this item (customer_name) from this folder (cust_lov) as a LOV in the EUL via Admin.
So, you're just redirecting where each existing item you associate this LOV with to go there instead for it's values.
And as you want, as the table increases with more distinct customers, so does your LOV grow.
Two suggestions - or concerns to be aware of.
a. You don't want to generate your LOV on a large, repeating table (ie: you would not use something like an order table where each customer may have 100 different orders as this will bog down the LOV retrieval. Usually, use a smaller table that only has the distinct values (so you wouldn't really have to use the distinct clause in the select as shown).
b. You should turn off the user's visibility to that LOV folder (ie: not visible to user under that folder's EUL properties), otherwise they may use it and it's not guaranteed to be perfect. Alternatively, another method that NoetixViews used to (and may well still) use was to create a business area for all this good stuff (kind of like tools business area) and then stick this kind of thing in it. Then it keeps specially written LOV folders out of a particular business area (ie: ar_folder) and is not repeated in many business areas (as you know to just use the 'tools' business area for this sort of thing).
Hope it helps.

Discoverer viewer in portal or Drill to detail in Disco report in Portal

Hi
Is it possible to embed discoverer viewer into Portal page. I know one way, I can achieve this in older versions by using <IFRAME src="worksheet url"></iframe> as HTML portlet. But, the problem here is that, our Discoverer viewer is SSO protected. So,I don't want user to single sign on again, as they have already have done that when they got into portal.
My second question is , I have developed Page-Detail report in Disco plus, also I have Drill to Detail in the same report. Drill to Detail is created using "Manage Link" option. When I deploy this report into Portal using Disco Portlet provider, firstly in portal it is not showing the Page Item, also the Drill through link also is not showing.
Any help on the above questions would be greatly helpful.
Thanks
Balaji

Hi
Firstly thank you very much for your response.
The Disco report I have is a Discoverer Plus report with Drill to Detail to another workbook(developed through manage link). But this Drillable link is not showing in the published Disco portlet. Are you saying that it should in the published disco portlet? .. As posted in previous response , I know this would work from Analyze link(which basically lauches viewer)..
But users would like to see this drillable link in the report in portal page itself(which means on the published portlet itself). To achieve this only, I used Iframes in Html portlet and showing the Discoverer viewer url. It works fine, but only thing is each time user naviges to portal page, it executes the report which takes some time. I am trying to avoid the execution process. I think one solution is I can just schdule these Disco reports and that way it will not query the database each time. I was wondering if there is any other solution maybe I am missing
Thanks
Balaji

Discoverer Report opened from Portal does not show correct data

Hi,
When I try to open a Discoverer report from a portal that I created, it shows stale data but when I click on "Analyze", it shows all the data correctly.
Does anyone know what the reason could be for this?
Thank you,
Santoshi

I assume you used the Discoverer Portlet Provider. A discoverer portlet is never live data. When you define the portlet you specify how often to 'refresh' the data. If you skipped this step, then you just get the data as-of when you created the portlet.
Generally you specify the refresh time to be sometime after your usual database load completes.

Authorization problem to execute a report through portal

Hi All,
One of user while trying to execute report through portal, getting error message saying that
"you are not authorized to execute the report XXXXXXX'
Can not load query <query name> (data provider <data provider name> No authorizations for requested service.
The report is a web template which is getting executed through portal.
User is having all the authorizations to execute the report(report autho as well as infoprovider autho also)
we have regenerated the user roles , done user comparision....every thing is OK.
Still unable to execute the report.
Please advice what can be done in this case....
Regards

Hi Shaik,
Are you able to run this report with your user id?
If so check the role or authorization objects which are missing to the user.
And also check whether he got portal roles assigned to his profile.

Discoverer Report Slow

Hi All,
I have a problem wherein some specific users are saying that the report is slow at their end.
The exact issue is...we have Discoverer Report present at the US server. Now we have 2 sites CANADA and US from where this report is run. Both sites refer the same server i.e. the US server.
Canadian users are reporting performance problems with this report, but when I run the report at my end there is no such problem.
Please advice what can be the probable reason for this.
Regards,
Ankur

Hi Ankur
Further to what has been said, if you are running Discoverer Plus across a long time it will take longer to run. Typically the query runs within the database but everything else, formatting, layout, page items and so on is done locally by the Java applet in your local cache. What happens if you run a CANADA report from the US site? Does it run ok? If so, then therein lies the answer. The machines in Canada need to therefore be as powerful as you can make them plus your network needs to be as fast as you can too.
Another way way I have seen this solved is by providing something like a Citrix server in the US for the Canadian customers to log into.
Best wishes
Michael

Discoverer report with PO_RELEASES in R12

Hi all,
I'm migrating a Discoverer report from 11i to R12. The query of the folder uses the po_releases and this join condition "and rcv_transactions.po_release_id = po_releases.po_release_id(+)". When I run the report I get the error "invalid number" but when I tried the same query but using the po_releases_all it seems to work. Is this ok? I saw that in R12 po_releases is just a synonym, is this correct? I would appreciate your comments.
Thanks in advance.
Gabriela

Thanks Hussein. Yes, I've checked the document you recomend, but the problem seems to be when I try to use po_releases, the synomy) and I don't know why it work with the _all table but not work with the synonym.

Discoverer report returns no data from a certain time

Using Discoverer 10g,a discoverer report which returned data normally last month gets to return no data now.
We have four same environments, and two of them has this problem, two is OK.
And the SQL of the discoverer of the four environments are the same.
We have no any changment of this discoverer and related EUL for more than one year....
How should we investigate into this issue.
For example ,a point we should notice or something...
Could somebody give us a suggestion?
Thank you.

Thanks for your qiuck reply.
1.empty table that is joined in the query.The four environments has almost the same data,it is not the cause.
2.security issue with the data, maybe the security definitions are different from one environment to another.we are now invesgate into this cause.
and there is a sql of the discoverer's EUL which shows no data in a enviroment(in this enviroment discoverer report gets no data), but in another enviroment data can show.
the sql is as following.

How to submit a concurrent request from Discoverer report.

I would like to know If any one has tried submitting a concurrent request from Discoverer Report?_
This is no stupid question, but our team here finally decided with a solution to our long pending issues with few of the discoverer report. To Proceed further, we would like to know, how to submit a concurrent request from Discoverer report?
We are looking for calling a package from the Disco admin by passing the parameters from the disco to the 6i report.
All help us in this regards are much appreciated.
Kindly help us in the same!
Thanks
Arun

Thanks Rod for confirming the same.
I will be trying the same today and will let you know if I succeed in doing it.
If I can share the actual requirement with you, it goes like this.
"I will be triggering the Oracle 6i standard AP Trail balance report through the Disco report. The standard report will be inserting the required data to one of my custom table. Once the concurrent program completes normal, my custom table will be having the required data to create the workbook specific to the current run of the concurrent program.
The one problem which I think could happen is, How can I make my disco report to wait till the standard program to complete in normal so that my disco report can be generated with the data from custom table.
Will the above requirement is possible If I follow the way you mention in the PDF or Could you suggest a better way for achieving the same.
In short, my requirement is: The custom table(say XX_TABLE) will be populated with data when the standard 6i report is run and the disco admin will be making of the custom table (XX_TABLE) to generate the report.
Please advice.
Thanks
Arun
