Regarding OBIEE Installation

Hi All,
I need to install Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Enterprise Edition, Informatica PowerCenter and Power Connect Adapters. In addition i want to install analytics for Supply Chain and Order Management Fusion Edition, Financial Fusion Edition, Procurement and Spend Fusion Edition.
The database we would like to use is 11g if compatible if no then 10g.
How can i configure these? Can you tell me the hierarchy of installation? means OBIEE, Informatica Power Center, DAC(i am not sure if require for this installation),how many repo db i want to use, Whether i need to install OBIEE and Power center in same machine or separate machine, what about OBI Apps(i didnt get the set up file for linux ony i got for windows), how can i integrate OBIEE with Oracle Apps 12.1.1....
I am new to OBIEE. Please let me know a solution for this.
Thanks,
Manikandan.

Hi,
You must have a folder like the following : C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_11 (Java Development Kit)
If not you can dowload a jdk and install from here :

Basic or Advanced OBIEE installation

We are trying to installed Advanced OBIEE question: Are we able to use the Web logic Server instead of the Oracle Application Server to perform the Advanced Installation type for OBIEE. We are using Weblogic 10.3, OBIEE 10.1.3.4
During a i am getting this message
■ You are evaluating the Oracle Business Intelligence product.
■ The Web Server is a J2EE Application Server other than Oracle Application Server.
■ Choose the Advanced Installation type when deploying Oracle BI with Oracle Application Server
If you plan to perform an Advanced Installation, Oracle Application Server (version 10.1.3.1.0 or
later) must be installed before you run the Oracle Business Intelligence installer.
Lastly, what is the difference between basic and advanced installation.

Hi,
I think you need to go ahead with Basic installation(which has OC4j as application server). Now after your OBIEE installation is complete you need to install right version of Weblogic and deploy the analyitcs.war file and BI publisher war file (if needed) so that applications would be created on you application server. Once this is done you are good to use OBIEE which would be running on weblogic server as an application listening on the port you configured.
Hope this helps

OBIEE installation drive

Hi all,
Everything was working fine for me till yesterday....
Yesterday i tried to write a java program with the help of following [link to write java application| http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/01/04/oracle-bi-publisher-101331-creating-applications-using-jdeveloper-11g-and-web-service-soap-apis/]
succesfully created the java application.
But today, when I try to open the reports in BIP I am getting error message given below,for all the reports. Except the last file name in the error message 'xdo_070309_124949014_rtf_out.xsl' is different for each report.
I believe that some config file got edited and bip is searching the required file in different OBIEE installation folder.
OBIEE is installed in C drive and the path C:\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\xmlpserver\xmlpserver\xdo\tmp\ is very much valid when in the error message it is telling that D:\..\..\... is invalid.
Please help me in the issue.
Error meassage when trying to view any report in BIP.
D:\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\xmlpserver\xmlpserver\xdo\tmp\xdo_070309_124949014_rtf_out.xsl (The system cannot find the path specified)
Thanks in Advance.

Problelm solved.
i had kept xdodebuf.cfg file in the location D:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_03\jre\lib for debug purpose.
the log path in the file was LogDir=D:\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\xmlpserver\xmlpserver\xdo\tmp
where it should have been written as LogDir=C:\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\xmlpserver\xmlpserver\xdo\tmp since OBIEE in my system is installed in C drive.
Thanks

Hi Kam,
First of all it's a pleasure to help! That being said, if you think I've correctly answered all your questions, it'd be great if you'd reward "Correct" and/or "Helpful" points for my participation.
Secondly, after installing the components properly, you will get one development application,although, I'm not sure if it is IDE compliant. There really isn't a true debugger component, however, it does have a compiler that will throw errors and you'll have to do some leg work to figure out what is the root cause and fix it.
The only setup.exe file you should be concerned with is in the Server folder. Ignore the others.
Good luck!

Sharing reports across different OBIEE installations

Hello,
Is there a way to import/export reports from/to different OBIEE environments?
We developed a number of Answers reports, and would love to share them with our counterparts who have their own OBIEE installations. The problem is that our environments differ and our repositories differ as well (.rpd file). Some of us are running Windows, others are running Linux; some use Oracle, others SQL Server, or even Microsoft Access.
We tried copying the xml and corresponding .atr files from the catalog in one environment to the catalog in the other, but we quickly found out that the reports fail due to different configurations (missing tables, unknown users, problems with permissions, etc.)
Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.

Hello,
Thank you for your response.
I am replying to my own original post now. You are right, I was asking for the impossible -- it was late on Friday, and I must have been really tired when I submitted my original post.
The problem I needed to solve was this. Someone gave me Microsoft Access database, the .rpd file and the .xml and .atr files for the Answers reports. My job was to make those reports run in my environment, which is Oracle on Linux. I have finally made it work, but I did have to make changes in the .rpd and add a TNS entry before this started to work. Since there was a change in the physical layer, I had to recreate the BM layer to generate the correct mappings. Then I was able to simply copy and paste the presentation layer from the .rpd that was given to me.
Again, thank you very much for your response.

Seperate OBIEE installation and Weblogic Installation

Hi,
Our requirement is to setup the HA system in the Production for the OBIEE. We have Admin server as active-passive on the 2 OBIEE instances.
We trying to setup the high availability of the Admin server as per the Oracle Enterprise Deployment guide. If I setup that and manually failover the Admin server the user cannot login if the Admin server is migrated to second application server.
So our next option is to install the weblogic on the NAS shared storage and scale out the OBIEE components on the 2nd Application server so that Active-Passive Admin server can access the same settings on the shared storage. So the question is it possible to separate the weblogic and OBIEE installation directories separately in order to achieve high availability.
Thanks:
Apurv.

The URL will be exactly the same as a Windows installation but will have your Unix server name. You will need to learn how to start and stop the OBIEE services and OC4J in Unix. This is pretty well documented on the Infrastructure Installation and Configuration Guide.

Question regarding the installation of a J2EE 6.40 Add-in

Hi all,
I would like to install a J2EE engine on a test instance of ECC 5.0 and have a few questions regarding the installation...
Do I have to use the MASTER CD to first install the J2EE engine (Support Package 0) and then apply the latest support packages found on the SAP Marketplace?
Or should be able to directly install the J2EE Add-In by using the latest support packages found on the SAP Marketplace?
Best regards,
Xavier Vermaut

Thanks Bhavik for your reply,
That's what I actually thought but I get the following problem... Here's what I wrote into my customer message... I am still waiting for an answer and would like to get this solved ASAP
Dear SAP,
We would like to install the J2EE 6.40 Add-In on our ECC 5.0 instance
(TST) but get the following error message at the very beginning of the
installation
> Cannot find an installed ABAP system, which is a prerequisite for a
> J2EE Add-In installation. The installation cannot continue.
We checked the installation logs (sapinst_dev.log) and found the
following :
> Found these instances:
> sid: MGR, number: 00, name: DVEBMGS00, host: erpqs1a
> sid: TST, number: 10, name: DVEBMGS10, host: erpqs1a
Why does the installation say that it can not find any ABAP systems when
having previously found the 2 different instances running on this
server?
Would this problem be related to the fact that we have two instances on
this server?
Please find hereunder the way we performed this installation :
01) Download of the 4 different parts of SAP J2EE Engine 6.40 SP 10
     (Solaris 10 - Oracle)
     Part I   : SAPINST10_0-20000121.SAR         (Solaris 64)
     Part II : CTRLORA10_0-20000121.SAR         (Solaris 64)
     Part III : J2EERTOS10_0-20000121.SAR        (Solaris 64)
     Part IV : J2EERT10_0-10001982.SAR          (OS Independant)
02) Extract these 4 archives into /install/J2EE_640
03) Check Java Version and Environment Variables
04) Check Solaris Pre-Requisites
05) Adapt "product.xml" as specified in OSS Note 697535 (IGS)
06) Log in as 'root'
07) Set DISPLAY environment Variable
08) Move to the Installation directory
      ( /install/J2EE_640/SAPINST-CD/SAPINST/UNIX/SUNOS_64 )
09) ./sapinst
10) In the 'Welcome to Netweaver Installation' screen, select
      => Dialog Instance Finalization
Any idea how to get this solved?
Best regards,

OBIEE installation in Ubuntu 9.10

Hi Experts,
I am new to Ubuntu and am exploring Linux for the first time, I am a developer in Oracle but I want to learn OBIEE in Linux, but some how when I install, it says that the platform should be either RedHat or Suse, I do not know how to proceed further.
Please help me as I have made all installation my self,which took me 2 days full, now I cannot go back to windows or any other platform to make this happen.
Please help out.. Real urgent.
Regards,
Rakesh

Welcome to the forums !
What version of OBIEE and Ubuntu ? AFAIK, OBIEE is not certified on Ubuntu - so the hack of ignoring system prereqs may or may not work - it may also cause issues after the install.

2 Default Schemas in OBIEE installation.

Good Afternoon
We currently have a database called DEV2, pointing to this database is an OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 installation.
We want to install OBIEE 11.1.1.7.0 (Enterprise installation) on a new server and also point our DEV 2 database to this installation.
I read that you can break your installation if you overwrite the 2 schemas in our case already installed on 11.1.1.5.0.
So my question is can you create 2 new Schemas so it can be configured on its own and have nothing to do with the 11.1.1.5.0 installation but be 11.1.1.7.0 only?
Regards
Rayno

If I understand correctly you don't want to upgrade your existing environment, but create a new 11.1.1.7.0 env without breaking the first 11.1.1.5.0 Instance.
If yes than you need to create New set of schemas of 11.1.1.7.0 version, you can create them on same Database, but while creating new schemas give a new Prefix to it.

OBIEE Installation Steps on LINUX

Hi Folks,
We are implementing OBIEE on Linux box. So obviously, Oracle Business Intelligence Admin Tool needs to be installed in Windows environment.
So my doubt is, should I install only Oracle Business Intelligence Admin Tool component in Windows environment and rest of the all components in Linux box?
or
Can I install all the components in Windows environment and rest in Linux box.
