Report schedules failing silently

Hi SAP BI gurus and experts!
We are facing a tough intermittent issue concerning report scheduling. From time to time, mostly on a weekly basis, scheduled reports are not sent via email to the recipients. We try to check on CMC if there's any error, but cannot find anything there - no error status or error message for any report instance. Most of the time, when we restart AdaptiveServer service, emails that had not been sent are then sent normally.
Does any of you have faced this issue before?
Could you tell us how we could see the status of the sent/not sent reports?
We are also checking the log, as described in this post Schedule report (log file) to see if we can find something there.
Are we checking the right places? Any ideas on what could be causing this behavior?
We are using SAP BI 4.0 SP9.
Thanks!!
Best Regards,
Luigi

hi,
You will not get instances of friday and saturday.
You will get an instance on the day your cms starts.

Webi Report Schedule failing in BI Launchpad

Hi,
I am wondering if anyone has come across this error message when trying to schedule a webi report in BI Launchpad.
Firstly, the webi report refreshes successfully in BI Launchpad. The source for the Webi report is an OLAP universe that was migrated from a 3.1 environment into BI 4.0.
The error message occurring when scheduling is:
'while trying to invoke the method org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject.eClass() of an object loaded from local variable 'eObject' '
I haven't been able to find any documentation on this error message on a failed scheduled.
If anyone has an idea what might be causing this I would appreciate the help.
Many thanks,
Ainsley

Hi,
- Does your souce BEx have SAP Variables coming through to the OLAP universe as Filters?
- Does your WebI document's dataprovider have filters defined as Prompts in the query panel ?
- or, I wonder if 'local variable' may refer to a report-level variable ? i doubt it. i imaging it's the SAP VAR.
I know that these 2 types of prompts have been troublesome on occasions with scheduling.
Please check Note 1602665 - SAP BusinessObjects 4.0 SP02 Patch 2.6 Release Notes
and refer to the fixed issues .pdf attached
there are a number 3 / 4 corrections for scheduling webi with prompts ontop of bw

Hi Jörg,
we use simple server based batch scripts . These scripts use the functionality provided by the BPA Admin tool to perform different tasks. You can either start macros inside the tool or perform other tasks like backing up the DBs etc.
This is a very simple by proven way to automate server based activities. We use this since the old ARIS days

Crystal Report Server - Scheduled Reports Have Failed - SMTP_E_TCPSOCKET_SE

Hi,
Recently, several scheduled reports have failed with the error message "server error. CrystalEnterprise.Smtp: SMTP_E_TCPSOCKET_SEND(3)". It happens randomly, to different reports at different times. Can anyone let me know what information does this need to troubleshoot. Thanks!
Senthil

Hi
I would like to suggest you following things:
1) Please check the SMTP settings on the respective report's job server. Like Severname of the SMTP
server. Port number of the SMTP and domain.
2) Check whether are you able to send the mails from mail client to the desired destination.
3) Verify the Port number given to the SMTP, by default it is 25. And also verify it is not blocked on the
firewall.
4) Also verify whether ip address of the server machine where job server is installed is included in the
allowed list at the SMTP server end.

Hello Senthil,
I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

Re-scheduling reports when Report Server fails?

Is there a method to re-schedule previously cheduled reports in the scenario that for instance, the report server fails for whatever reason? My scenario is that I had a report server have a problem overnight and the reports that were scheduled did not execute. Is there a fairly straight forward way to identify and reschedule the reports that did not run?
Thanks
Marc

There might be a way. When you schedule a report through CMC under Recurrence you have an option "Number of retries allowed" and "Retry interval in seconds". Set the first parameter to be 1. If the report server fails overnight, then what you can do is set the interval seconds to be a big number, so that the next retry would be in the morning when someone would have restarted the server.

Sending an email to the user if the WEBi scheduling failed in CMC

Hello Everyone,
Current scenario :
I am scheduling WEBi report through CMC and the report is going to end user email as an excel attachment.
Desired Functionality :
What happens is if the scheduling fails due to some reason. The email does not go to the end user on a particular date and then he complaints.
What i need here an email sending option that if the WEBi scheduling has been failed in CMC an email should go to the user saying : " The WEBi scheduling has failed. The team is working on it " . (This is just a sample message)
So the idea is to send an email to the user when the WEBi scheduling fails in the CMC. How to achieve this ?
Regards,
Ashutosh Singh

Hi Ashutosh,
You can send an alert email to a group when the schedule fails to run by choosing the "A job has failed to run" option under notification.
You can see this option only if you schedule the report through CMC.

Sunil

Crystal Report Error Failed to load Database logon Information

Hi Experts,
We developed a Crystal reports fetching data from a BI Query. When we run the report from Crystal Report Desginer it runs perfectly.
When I schedule the report in the CMC / Infoview, I am getting a error message saying:
"<REPORT NAME> Failed to load database logon Information."
We have checked the database configuration in CMC for this report. BI system hostname and the other necessary credentials are fine.
Please suggest us on how we go about understanding the cause of the error.

Hello vma.
I happened to find the solution on 11.1.1.3. With xdo-server.jar, you can use DataProcessor class.
For details and sample source code:

* Not sure if it works on 11.1.1.5 though, I hope this gonna help you.

Linux-3.10.10 fails silently when booting with UEFI

This problem has occured for me on several occasions in the past (with 3.10.2 and 3.10.8) but that has been with kernels in [testing]. With 3.10.10 dropping to [core], this is the first time this has happened for me with an official release.
Though the linked-to thread is marked as "Solved", the only solution found was downgrading and waiting for a new kernel to be released that did not have the issue (3.10.3 and 3.10.9). I am using UEFI with gummiboot, but I have no idea why this is happening (and since the boot fails silently it's rather difficult for me to provide helpful logs). Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Have you found any workable solution that isn't just waiting? Can anyone else guide me in some troubleshooting?
All the best,
-HG

srs5694 wrote:
Booting directly from the firmware and via gummiboot are basically the same, in the sense that they both rely on the EFI stub loader. The problem under discussion in the thread to which I linked appears to be a bug in the EFI stub loader that interacts with the firmware version -- it affects many Lenovo computers, but few others. It appears when using the EFI stub loader directly, from rEFInd, or from gummiboot; but it's a highly inconsistent bug. It can go away by switching from gummiboot to rEFInd, from rEFInd to gummiboot, from one version of rEFInd to another, from either of these to a direct boot from the firmware, etc. It also comes and goes with the exact kernel version, with different people reporting problems with different kernels.
As I said, there's no real fix. The precise cause hasn't been nailed down; if it had been, chances are there'd be a fix by now.
Fascinating. I wonder what's going wrong with it.
If SYSLINUX is getting you further into the boot process, then I recommend you try to debug what's happening with SYSLINUX. Try posting details of any error messages you see.
Fair enough. Then, here's my plan. Given that this thread appears to be a duplicate of the thread srs5694 linked to, it should probably either be merged in or closed (I don't necessarily have any preference, and since there has been no new discovery made in it, it doesn't seem as though there is any inherent advantage one way or another). And, I will shortly open a new thread on troubleshooting syslinux.
Thank you for your guidance srs! You've been a huge help.
All the best,

BO XI 3.1 - scheduling fails for locked PDF files

Hi,
I have scheduled reports in BO XI 3.1 and instances are stored as PDF files on the BO server.
Issue I am facing : During the schedule time (daily morning), if the PDF file has been kept open by some user, the schedule fails saying the file is locked by someone else.
I am thinking of writing some scripts (.bat file) to kill the session (file open by the user) and on success of this script the BO scheduler runs.
But am wondering if there is anything in CMC/ Infoview where in we can restrict the access levels to just read and not write to the users ?
Please advice.
Thanks,
Ash

adding place holders to give different name to the PDF file is ruled out , as the users want the same name and only one copy of the file should be present at a particular time.
As suggested by Tim -
If we use a bat file to copy the file to another location (viewing location), the file can be overwritten in the original location but the bat file can not overwrite the PDF in viewing location (if the PDF is opened, during the file copy from original folder to viewing folder)
PDF files are stored in the BOBJ repository
Any other options ?
Thanks,
Ash

Crystal Reports Publication fails when using dynamic recipients

Hi experts,
We are facing a problem related with the BOE 3.1 Dynamic recipients Publication.
We have created a Publication with just one Crystal Report based on a MDX Query. We send the report in PDF format to email destinations
Dynamic recipients are defined in a WebI report pulling data from a BW query universe. We can display the email, user ID, Use Name and other fields we would like to use as dynamic parameters.
Server side trust seems to be configured (is there any way to test it is properly configured?).
The Publication is working fine with enterprise recipients (which have SAP BW account), and each recipient receive its PDF by email.
When we execute same report with dynamic recipients without selecting dynamic personalization parameters it is working fine. But when we select one dynamic parameter (which is coming from the WebI report we use for dynamic recipients) eg: Profit Centre, the Publication fails and we get a Database Connector error:
2011-02-14 08:53:25,275 ERROR [PublishingService:HandlerPool-13] BusinessObjects_PublicationAdminErrorLog_Instance_31036 - [Publication ID # 31036] - Scheduling document job "P&L" (ID: 31,051) failed: Error in File ~tmp191067bfa343ff0.rpt: Database Connector Error (FBE60502) [1 recipients processed.]
How can a dynamic parameter affect on the Database Connection?
Does anyone have an idea about what could be wrong?
Thanks!

Ino, what do you mean for "technical name or the member unique name"? Are you talking about the SAP User name? So in the dynamic recipients we can find these parameters:
- Recipient Identifier (required):
- Full Name:
- Email:
In the Recipient Identifier I should refer to a SAP user?
Dynamic recipients option is working for same recipients. The problem appears when I assign one parameter to a field coming from the dynamic webi report.It fails with the previously detailed error. This parameter assignment seems to be causing the Database Connector error.

Recurring Crystal schedules fail if original data source changes

We're using BO 3.1 (SP3 plus FP 3.3 and 3.5) with Oracle 11g repository and both 10g and 11g clients installed on the BO servers (Windows Server 2008 R2). We've been trying to resolve an issue with recurring schedules of Crystal reports. We always configure them to use the Custom Data Source settings but if the Original Data Source name changes, it's causing report schedules to fail with the below error message. So if the parent report's original data source doesn't match the schedules original data source, the schedule begins to fail even though it's configured to use the custom data source settings. I've had a ticket open with support for over a month now but am not getting anywhere. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Error in File ~tmp6406e9398df050.rpt: Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 1005 ]

Hi John,
Thanks for the response but rescheduling reports does NOT resolve the issue and should not be necessary when they're set to use the CUSTOM data source. We've found that the only thing you can really do is delete the existing recurring schedules and create brand new ones. Needless to say, this isn't very convenient for users and it's difficult to prevent the original data source name from ever changing. It sure seems like a bug but SAP will not acknowledge it as such. If you use Query builder to look up all the detail on a recurring schedule, there's nothing to indicate where the problem is. The SI_USE_ORIGINALDS will be set to "false" but if the original data source in the recurring schedule does not match that of the parent report, it will fail even though the custom data source settings are correct. Why would the recurring schedule do anything at all with the original data source when it is set to use the custom one??

Publication Error - Scheduling failed

hi All
i'm trying to create a new simple publication on BO XI 3.0 system with a crystal report
i create the CR and export it to the enterprise platform
i run and refresh the CR from the Infoview, its working fine.
i create a publication for this CR
with those details
Source Document : mycrystalreport
Enterprise Recipents : Administrator
Formats: Microsoft Excel 97-2003
Destinations: Default Enterprise location
when i run this publication in test mode it gives me this error
Scheduling failed: Security privileges are not sufficient for this operation.
any idea?

Hi There,
Have you tried to schedule the report (just a 'run once'). How does that go?
Your error may be because when a report get's scheduled (as opposed to a human clicking refresh), it's technically unattended so reverts to the db config settings.
In the CMC, right click on the report, go to properties. Expand the Default Settings node, then select Database Configuration.
You might want to use the setting 'Use custom database logon information specified here.'
Hope that helps.
