Prompting for the database logon while opening the report in CMC

I created a report and saved in the Crystal server 2008 repository. I set the default Database configuration as
report > Schedule > Database Logon > set password
or tick "Use same database logon as when report is run" in Default Settings > Database Configuration.
But when I am click on View for the report still it is promting for the database loging name and password.
is there any other settings required for this.
Thanks

Bypass the error messages while opening the Web Analysis 9.3.1 Report

I am using WA 9.3.1 to create a few reports. The login users will have some essbase meta-read security filters to restrict the access into certain regions and entities.
For example:
user a has the meta-read and read access of @idescendants (east);
user b has the meta-read and read access of @idescendants (west);
user c has all the accesses
However, in the first start-up page (Web Analysis 9.3.1 dashboard), I have a dashboard which contains all the regions access. When user a login, he shall only see his own dashboard (speedometers, etc.).
Currently the user login will get some error messages (such as "loading document produce error", etc). I wonder whether we can set the message level in Web Analysis so that there is no such error message while the user is opening the reports.
Thanks

Karen,
Thanks for the reply.
I have checked my Web Analysis report, and I still have the error message of "Error Occur while opening document. Document ID = {0}" while using the some user id to login.
In my Web Analysis database connection preference, my setting is "user the user id and password". I have verified this (when I use "user a" to login, and in essbase connection, i can see the session with "user a").
In the WA report, however, I use the multiple-level combo box, so that it can give me different levels of entities, for example, the top level is all regions, the 2nd level is east/west/south/ ec, and the next level is cities, and so on. And if "user a" login, he will be able to see the all regions and east, and then east cities (of course, if he select all regions, there will be no data available).
Do you think this multiple level combo boxes can be the cause of this error message?
Thanks a lot

Executing the planning function while opening the web interface

hello all,
I have created a planning area based on multiprovider.This multiprovider is based on two transactional cube ie,COPA cube and Cost Center cube.
This planning area is meant for enabling integrated planning.One plans in COPA cube and other plans in Cost Center cube the income statement gets planned based on this two.
I selected planning items in multiprovider layout to display the income statement.The layout is as follows:
PlanningItem Amount
Net Sales: 9.000,00 INR (This comes from COPA)
Sales Overheads: 200,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
Depreciation: 200,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
Other Expenses: 300,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
EBIT: 0,00 INR
Interest Income: 0,00 INR
Interest Expense: 0,00 INR
Operating Income: 0,00 INR
Taxes: 0,00 INR
Now EBIT planning item is to be calculated from the planning items as follows:
EBIT = Net Sales-Sales Overheads-Depriciation-Other Expenses
For this i have created a planning function which calculates EBIT.This function works properly,there are no issues in it.
My problem is that i want this function to be executed as soon as i open the web interface for my planning application and the result should be as follows:
PlanningItem Amount
Net Sales: 9.000,00 INR (This comes from COPA)
Sales Overheads: 200,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
Depreciation: 200,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
Other Expenses: 300,00 INR (This comes from Cost Center)
EBIT: 8.300,00 INR
Interest Income: 0,00 INR
Interest Expense: 0,00 INR
Operating Income: 0,00 INR
Taxes: 0,00 INR
Can anybody suggest how to go about this problem?
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Yogesh

Hi Yogesh,
as far as i know, there is no standard functionality for that purpose, but there are workaround for it.
1. Modify the BSP Application.
 Go to SE80 --> Repository Browser --> BSP Application --> your WI name --> page with flow logic --> double click on page1.htm --> Event handler tabstrip --> on the drop down selection press F1 --> add a function module that call you BPS function in specific event (e.g: OnInitialization).
2. Use WI-Exit Class / WI-Extention (ABAP OO).
Here you need to create sub class from Class: CL_UPWB_BSP_APPL, and assign the class to your WI. You can then add a function module that call you BPS function in method:
2.1. Load --> performed only once on intial execution of WI.
2.2. Initialisation --> called once for each server response.
2.3. Dispatch --> called at each action and also for each WI component.
You can see further information in SAP how to paper:
How to Validate manual input in WEB planning application, New BPS-Features delivered with SAP BW 3.5, etc.
You can call your BPS function with BPS API FM (See F.Group: UPC_API)
But there is also more easier way to realize your ebit calculation. If you define your EBIT calc. manually in layout (define with manually defined Lead column). With this way, You will always get your EBIT analog with inputed values.
Then you add your EBIT calc.function to Layout Component in WI in property: 'Function After Data Change'.

Getting prompted for password EVERY time I open the App Store!

Does anyone have this happen to them? Every time I tap the App Store icon to go browse for new apps, it asks me for my password. Every time. Its driving me nuts LOL. It just started doing it recently out of the blue, so I'm not sure what's causing the issue. I've included a screenshot below...
Has anyone seen this or, better yet, cured this? Thanks in advance!

Anyone?
Totally weird stuff, as it's still doing it. This is after phone reboots, iTunes syncs, etc. etc. I just don't get it...

Hi..
This ORA-600 refers to a mismatch has been detected between Redo records and rollback (Undo) records.Is better to lock a call with oracle support.Secondly, apply latest patch on the DB.
I had expereiced the same error, but my DB was in open mode, so i created a new undo tablespace and changed the undo_tablespace parameter and it worked.

The migrated Crystal Report throws "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" error

[ENVIRONMENT]
Product version - BI4.1 SP03
OS - Windows 2008 R2
CMS Database - Oracle 11g
Java Application Server - Tomcat7
[ISSUE]
Using the Upgrade Management Tool to completely migrate a BOXI3.1 SP3+FP3.6 to BI4.1 SP03. The reporting database from both BOXI3.1 and BI4.1 are the same and so is the database logon credential.
When viewing and refresh a migrated Crystal Report, it throws "The viewer could not process an event. The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect. [] ---- Error code:0 [CRWEB00000119]" error in both BI Launchpad and "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" in scheduled job.
[STEPS TAKEN]
- Update the Database Configuration with the SAME Oracle database password in CMC and "The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect" issue goes away.
I search the SAP SMP and SCN forum and found no reference on this UMT and Crystal Report database logon problem. Hope any of you have seen this problem and share if there is an ADAPT for it.
Thank you in advance,
Jin-Chong

Hi,
The BI4.1 SP03 server and client and Crystal Report 2013 SP03 developer and Crystal Report for Enterprise 4.1 SP03 are all installed onto this Windows 2008 R2 server.
I am able to open the migrated report from CMS repository in Crystal Report 2013 SP03 developer and am able to refresh it with database logon password provided. After save it back to the Enterprise, the database logon password field for this report in CMC becomes empty so that I have to enter the database password and choose "Use same database logon as when report is run" when viewing and scheduling report.
What is interesting to me is that the UMT seems to migrate the report along the database logon password because I can see the encrypted password in the report database logon property in CMC. The workaround is to reenter the database logon password in the report database logon property in CMC.
With this said, there are hundreds of the Crystal reports and the workaround would consume lots of manual work by update each report's database logon password in CMC.
For other customers who have more crystal reports, I wonder if there is an automated way to update the crystal report's database logon password on BI4.1 or if this is an isolated incident on my new BI4.1 SP03 environment.
I run UMT in command line to perform livetolive migration, and my steps are listed below
cd "E:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\java\apps\upgradeManagementTool\jars\"
"E:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64\sapjvm\bin\javaw.exe" -Xmx56g -Djava.library.path="..\..\..\..\win64_x64" -jar upgrademanagementtool.jar -internal_use_only_noversioncheck -responsefile LIVETOLIVEResponseFile.txt

Hi,
Use below procedure
1. Go to /sapdb/SRD/data/wrk
2. cp -rp dbm_knl dbm_knl_OLD
3. vi +<Line in which the corruption occured> dbm.knl
see there must be a corruption in the given line and it will specified with a green color
delete that part and make the format as per the above line
4. save the file
5. execute the procedure again from Database studio or Database Manager
(Note: Make sure that you have taken the backup first of dbm.knl file Because any extra entry may cause another corruption)
(FYI : This file is only log file of successful backups and returns the return-code)

The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or inco

getting below error while opening a report from infoview
The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect.
Unable to retrieve Object.
The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect.
They can open the same report from crystal designer.We have checked the database and it is pointing to correct one in process->database of CMC.
They have created the report with windows NT credentials.
Can any one help in this regard.
Thanks,
Gokul.

How did you set up NT auth on the report? With CR Designer I'd assume you are using a trusted connection? Which option did you choose in the CMC for DB credentials? Prompt, same login, or SSO (I don't have the CMC screen in front of me right now so I'm abbreviating the options)?

The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect

Post Author: mchishty
CA Forum: Authentication
We have published a crystal report (XI) to InfoView (XI R2 SP2) and we are getting the following error for the database login.
"The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect."
The report is working fine in Crystal Reports XI.
The report is using the OLE DB connection to ORACLE.
The same server is running WebI reports against the same ORACLE DB. Thanks

Hi,
We configure DSN with windows authentication and report in CMC has the configuration information like this
Server Name: Populated
Database: populated
User: Empty
Password: Empty
For the report to run, do we have 6400 to 6490 ports open?
we have port 1433 open between database and CR server but not the 6400 - 6490 ports open?
Thanks in advance

The database logon information for this report is either incomplete

Hello All
I have installed a full licensed version of crystal reports server 2008 onto a windows server 2003 virtual server.
I am getting the following error message when trying to run some reports when i am logged in as the adminstrator
'The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect.'
Some reports work and some dont, I use the same login information for all reports, same username and same password, same machine datasource and all the reports run fine in crystal designer 2008
The only difference i can see is that the error mainly occurs with reports that use stored procedures, the ones that dont work fine.
I not sure how to resolve this problem as i have tested the login and the datasoure and it works fine, just not through crystal reports server

Further to this i've realized that this only happens with reports which have been updated to use a stored procedure from a query file. And the reports dont use any repository objects

Performance issue while opening the report

HI,
I am working BO XI R3.1.there is performance issue while opening the report in BO Solris Server but on window server it is compratively fast.
we have few reports which contains 5 fixed prompt 7 optional prompt.
out of 5 fixed prompt 3 prompt is static (it contains 3 -4 record only )which is coming from materlied view.
we have already use many thing for improve performance in report like-
1) Index Awareness
2) Aggregate Awareness
3) Array fatch size-250
3) Aray bind time -32767
4) Login time out -600
the issue is that before refresh opening the report iteslf taking time 1.30 min on BO solris server but same report taking time in BO window server 45 sec. even we import on others BO solris server it is taking same time as per old solris server(1.30 min).
when we close the trace in solris server than it is taking 1.15 sec time.it should not be intial phase it is not hitting more on database.so why it is taking that much time while opening the report.
could you please guide us where exectly problem is there and how we can improve performance for opening the report.In case the problem related to solris server so what would be and how can we rectify.
Incase any further input require for the same feel free to ask me.

Hi Kumar,
If this is happening with all the reports then this issue seems to be due to firewall or security settings of Solaris OS.
Please try to lower down the security level in solaris and test for the issue.

Use original database logon information from the report

When publishing reports to crystal reports server, the data source password is missing and reports as set to 'prompt the user for database logon'
Here is a description of our report creation process and how we currently set the db password.
Reports are created using Crystal Reports Designer XI Professional.
The data source is set up through the report wizard or manually to a sql db
using either a sql login or integrated authentication
the reports are then publish through the designer by going to File Save As - Choose Enterprise - then give
report server info.
From the CMC (crystal report server XI r2)
we go to the folder location,
select the report then go to the process tab
click on database sub tab.
we then set the database password and change the "When viewing reprot" setting to "Use same database logon as when report is run"
reports are run both ondemand through links to infoview and through a variaty of schedules.
How can we publish the reports to the Report Server without having to go to the CMC and set the database password, it doesnt' matter if we use sql login or integrated authentication, the result is the same.

Hi Mario,
some things you may want to consider.
1) Setting up SSO to the DB. If your install is on windows and DB is SQL or Oracle, you can integrate your logon with windows and pass that all the way down to the DB when viewing the report. This is fairly complex to set up initially but simple to use from then on.
2) DBuser and DBpass. You can populate user/pw fields associated with user account and then pass this value down to the DB. This can work with any DB instead of just SQL and Oracle. This doesn't appear to be documented yet. You may need to open a message with support if you need more details.
3) Create reports based of a universe. This will use the universe connection (set per universe) to access the DB. For more on this post a question in the crystal reports forums.
The kerberos SSO to the DB is documented in the [XI 3.0 admin guide|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir3/en/xi3_bip_admin_en.pdf]

Tim
