  • Problem when execute report Conversion Tool XI 3.0 on a client

    Hi everyone,
    When I use Report Conversion Tool on a client (not on Webi Server Windows 2003) I have an error (a red cross appears) before the conversion.
    I believe that RCT can not open the document to migrate.
    All it's OK when I use RCT since the Webi Server.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thank you for your prompt response.
    I have install all the client tool (even SDK, Query Web Service) except Assitant migration source de données, Gestionnaires Vues d'entreprise et Gestionnaire de traduction.
    I think I have a problem of rights on my Windows 2003 Server because in the log of conversion (C:Documents and SettingsUtilisateurLocal SettingsTempconversionUSER146731693logsD30860242.xml)
    the following lines are written :
    Note that I do the conversion with the Administrator login.

  • Report Conversion Tool - problem with logging in table OBJ_G_MIGRATION

    Hello Community-Members,
    since several days I am searching different BO-Communities for a solution, but I didn't find any threats about my problem.
    I am new to BO XI R3.1 and I want to convert deski-reports with the report conversion tool.
    I tried it directly on the server-machine and all is ok (report is converted inclusive the logging in the audit-table OBJ_G_MIGRATION).
    When I try it on my client-machine, the conversion is made successfully, but there is no result in the audit-table.
    On the client-machine, I use the same connection like on the server machine and on both machines, I am logged on (in the report conversion tool) with the "Administrator"-user.
    Has anyone an idea? Could it be a problem of user-rights in the Oracle-DB?
    kind regards
    Guenny

    Hello Denis,
    thank you for your reply.
    From my client machine I can successfully test the connection to the Audit-DB. With non BO-Tools like "SQL Tools1.4.1" I can also connect to that DB.
    After your reply I have tested once again and I have found something else strange.
    If I convert a deski-report, and the conversion-status is "not converted", the Audit-DB is written (for example: error-text = "document cannot be read" / workaround = "remove protection password if set").
    But when I convert the same report together with an other report, which will result in "partially converted", nothing is written to the Audit-DB (same effect as when I convert only reports with status "partially convertet").
    regards
    Guenny

    Hi Raghu,
        Try this idea: run it on server. Other user suggest the Windows version as the reason. if does not run, reinstall the Tool, maybe something is corrupted.

    Have you installed the RCT on the server hosting the CMS service or via a client? I have had this problem myself and resolved it by installing / working directly on the server.
    Hope this helps...

  • Migrating Cognos Reports to Birt

    Hi,
    I am relatively less familiar with Cognos.
    What is the best way to migrate a bunch of Cognos Reports to Birt.
    I have the Cognos Report files and the query definition file from Cognos.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I am not aware of a tool that directly converts Cognos reports into BIRT reports.
    However, I am not overly familiar with Cognos reports.
    If there is an API or a system available with Cognos reports to programmatically read their contents, you could then use the BIRT Design Engine API (DEAPI) to programmatically build report designs based on what is read from the Cognos designs.
    Alternatively, each report can always be rebuilt individually using the BIRT Report designer as needed.

  • Report conversion tool--Can we modify the query

    Hi all,
    I have some freehand SQL reports converted into WebI reports. I understand that report conversion tool, creates a new universe for each of the freehand SQL report. But if I try to edit the query, like add a filter condition, an error pops out.
    Is it possible to edit the query if we convert freehand sql reports into webi reports?
    Regards
    Ash.

    Hi,
    Yes it is possible to edit the query for the converted free hand sql query.
    If you see any problem while editing the SQL of the converted report, do a refresh once and try.
    Adding query filter also works fine.
    Issue from your end could also be due to security settings.i advise to revisit the security once and make sure all appropriate rights are available for the user.
    Thanks,
    Sri

  • Cannot Drill From (PDF) using FF in Cognos Report Studio

    Using Cognos Report Studio I can Drill From a PDF Report to another Report in IE.
    I cannot Drill From a PDF Report to another Report in FF.

    The PDF Viewer introduced in Firefox 19 does not (yet) have all the features of Adobe's PDF Plugin. You can switch using the settings described in this article: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
    The viewer is under active development, but I don't know how soon the feature you're using will be supported.

  • Can't Use UPK with Cognos Reports

    I am trying to use UPK to record Cognos reports. If I have UPK open, the Cognos report freezes and will not run, so I'm unable to use UPK to record these reports. I have tried logging on as a remote user, or opening the report without UPK open, then opening and trying to record, and nothing works. Has anyone had this issue with Cognos or other web-based applications/reports?

    I'm not familiar with any issues related to Cognos. I would suggest opening a support ticket: http://support.oracle.com/

  • APEX 3.2 Forms and Reports Conversion

    Hi,
    This link is a summary of APEX 3.2 new features (Forms and reports conversion and migrationn).
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.2_new_features.html
    Just wondering if I can convert and migrate Oracle reports 6.0 ? If yes, I would appreciate steps to convert my Oracel 6.0 reports to APEX.
    Thanks,
    Ribhi

    Hello Ribhi,
    For a readon I don't understand you have to start your migration project with uploading a Form (XML version). When you've done that you can add other types of source files, like Libraries, Object Libraries, Menu's and....Reports.
    So it seems (now) that you MUST have an Oracle Form to start with.
