Hi,
Delete all your datasources on your BW system and replicate again...

An error occurred while loading the model for the item or data source 'EntityDataSource'.

Hi Team,
We are trying to configure the Power View in SharePoint 2013. We did the entire configuration by following below steps. When we open the excel workbook (2013) containing
Power View sheet (using excel web services) deployed in SharePoint Document library, we get the below error.
“An error occurred while loading the model for the item or data source
'EntityDataSource'. Verify that the connection information is correct and that you have permissions to access the data source.”
Steps followed for configuring Power View in SharePoint Server 2013 (Single Machine setup):
Installed SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise edition
Did not configure it at this time
Installed SQL Server 2012 with default instance installation (selected every features)
Later installed SP1 for SQL Server 2012
After that installed Analysis Server in SharePoint mode (SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint)
Again installed another Analysis Server and selected the tabular mode of data model
Then ran the configuration wizard of Share point 2013 for farm configuration (only for central admin creation)
Later we ran the PowerPivot for SharePoint 2013 (spPowerpivot.msi)
Then using the Power Pivot Configuration tool for 2013 and completed all the steps and configured the excel service and registered the above two analysis service instances.
Questions/Doubts are:
Is our steps followed as mentioned above is correct for configuring Power View in SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise edition?
Is the SQL Server 2012 Enterprise edition with SP1 installed is sufficient to view Power View sheets in SharePoint 2013 or we need to use the SQL Server 2012 SP1
CTP3 software for Power View feature as mentioned in the below link.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219634.aspx
but we don’t have an option to download CTP3 software now from Microsoft site
Or do we need to install
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 With Power View For Multidimensional Models
CTP
http://www.microsoft.com/en-sg/download/details.aspx?id=35822
Few blogs says that SQL Server 2012 instance should have been installed with SP1 at one go (not seperately).

Thanks in advance.

I'll bet that I know the answer to this one - and you probably won't like it ;)
Here's the telling portion of that error: "We cannot locate a server to load the workbook Data Model."
This error is thrown in two scenarios; the first, when you haven't registered an analysis server. The second appears to be the issue you're having:
PowerPivot requires SQL Server 2012 SP1. Microsoft issued a release of SQL Server 2012 SP1 that really wasn't SP1...
Check the version of SQL that you are running. It should be version 11.0.3000 or greater. If it's not, you have the wrong "SP1" installed. The correct one is
here.
Here's the bad news- you can't simply redeploy the correct one... because the installer already thinks that SP1 is installed. You'll have to backup (or detach and copy) your databases, then re-install SQL with the correct SP1, then restore or reattach
the databases. Once you've done that, PowerPivot and PowerView will work properly.
I sincerely hope this resolves your issues - we wasted TWO WEEKS of our time with this problem!

hi,
Try replicating the data source again.
After that go to RSDS x-action there give the data source name and source system name and do restore and activations from there .
After check if you were able to create x-fer rules first.
Thanks

Disk image Restore returns "Could not validate source - error 254"

I had backed up an older G4 with a disk image of the boot disk. I was having severe problems so I reformatted the boot drive and started a restore (using disk utility from startup disk). The restore started fine and ran a while but then "stalled." The "progress" bar stopped and the system just kept "hitting" the Utility DVD install disk non-stop (as shown by disk access light).
Now when I try again, I immediately get a "Restore Failure - Could not validate source - error 254"
The disk image being restored is on a hard drive. I copied it to another drive and tried again with the same result.
This is being done on an old G4 Tower, dual 1 GHz PPC under 10.5.8
Comments?
(This won't kill me as all my data files are also on my MBP, I just don't want to have to reinstall all my apps, setups, etc.)

Yes, for my "real" machine (my Intel MBP) I have images, clones, and Time Machine Backups not to mention my data files written to DVD. I've got at least triplicate backup. This was a old machine I was setting up for a specific purpose. I'm not losing any data but I just didn't want to have to reload apps and such. But guess I have no alternative. Thanks for the tip. I had never used the "scan for restore option" before so I learned something. Usually I just trust my multiple backup method so if one source is bad, no big deal. Thanks baltwo!

Creation of the export data source failed

trying to activate ods but getting this message that the creation of the export data source failed.
and it also gives message that RFC Connection to source system is damaged===> no metadata upload
Please can someone help me with this.
Thanks in advance.
Michelle

Hi,
Check ur source system connection. by going to RSA1-> Source System-> right click and then select check.
U will get the info about the source system Connection. IF RFC has failed then better be in touch with ur basis.
Or try restoring ur source system connection by
Source system-> Restore.
Its sets all the default conenctions b/n ur systems.
Once again check the connection now. if it says ok.. then try do the export data source and then assign the data source to info source and then maintain the Update rules..
Hope this helps-

Unable to collect 3.x data source replica in a request

Hi,
When i tried to collect a data source replica(3.x data source) in a request it is throwing an error.
But when i tried to collect a data source replica which is migrated to 7.0 it is aloowing me to do.
Please suggest me a solution.I want some datasources as 3.x only.

Hello,
Goto Transaction RSDS and delete the replicated BI7.0 datasource and choose BW3.x datasource while replicating.
Restoring 3.x DataSources
1. In the maintenance screen of the DataSource (transaction RSDS) in the original system (development system), choose DataSource ® Restore 3.x DataSource.
2. Enter a transport request.
3.If required, delete the dependent transformation (R3TR TRFN) and data transfer process (R3TR DTPA) objects.
4.Transport the restored 3.x DataSource (R3TR ISFS), along with its dependent objects, into the target system.
Emulation, Migration, and Restoring DataSources
Thanks

Health App Data Source Order With Apple Watch-

I discovered a very large difference between the number of steps counted by Health App and my other step tracking app Pacer. Pacer was indicating I had 10,000 steps while HealthKit was reporting about 6000 steps.
I then realized this was happening because of the order my data sources were for steps. The order was:
Apple Watch
iPhone
The problem is, the Apple watch does not track cycling as steps while the iPhone does. Because of this, when the Apple Watch is first in the data source list for steps it doesn’t count those cycling “steps”. I find this odd since Health App should be smart enough to merge the results; if the watch is reporting no steps and the iPhone is reporting 4000 steps, it should add the iPhone’s steps to the total.
But, if I go in and change the priority order to:
iPhone
Apple Watch
then, HealthKit reports the correct 10,000 steps.
The strange thing is, if I’m not carrying my iPhone and have my watch on, HealthKit does properly merge the watch's steps into Health App even though the Apple Watch is second on the priority list.
I’m not sure if this is a bug or a feature, but it’s important to make sure your data sources are in the correct order. I’ve gone in and made sure my iPhone is in the first position on all my stats.

Today I did a full restore thanks to this post Health app has crashed, data gone. and some spare time to sit down and do it.
After re-adding the apps to share their data the Health app appears to be working as it was before for me. Hope this helps.

Data source not getting replicated

hi all,
i have created a generic datasourc and when i tried to replicate the datasource in BI, its not getting replicated at all.\
the datasource is active in rsa5.
I tried to replicate the application component but still the particulate datasource is not getting replicated.
I tried to store the data source in ECC in separate application component and try to replicate in Bi.,But still cannot replicate.
how to replicate the datasource?

Hi,
Please check if you r not replicating the daat source first time:
1. Delete teh PSA records if any.
2. Check if your replication trial create lock entry in daat base tables.
3. After deletion of whole datasource along with teh data , try replicating teh datasource again.
IF new datasource:
Go to rsa6 activate teh data source , check in RSa3 the extraction is proper.
log off from all teh sessions and of both BW and R/3 system.
Log in to BW and select teh r/3 system and replicate full data source.
Also check teh daat source RFC is activated and restored as well.
Thanks
Mukesh

Quick Question re Data Source

Hi
I have a quick question re datasource login.
I havent touched my Crystal Reports for about a year. Since I created the reports (which users have been using through Crystal Reports server) I have changed my PC.
I need to make a change in the formulas of the reports so I have reinstalled Crystal Reports 11 onto my PC and opened the reports. The forumula change is simple but I am having a nightmare with the data source login. The report runs against an SQL database. From memory all I did the last time was create an ODBC connection on my PC (which used the the SQL login sa account) and configured the reports to use that ODBC connection. When I open the report it asks me for the data source location which I tell it to use the one I created and the report runs fine.
If I close Crystal Reports and and then re-open, I press F5 to run the report and it gain asks me for the data source credentials.
Any ideas, I'm sure it is something simple I am missing?
Thanks

Guys
Thanks for your help
Ive managed to fix it but not really sure how although I'm sure a few of the things you have mentioned is what I have done.
I basically restored the reports from last nights backup (before I did the changes), re-did the changes and saved and now it seems to work. I think the difference here is that I had created the odbc connection prior to changing the reports - if that makes sense?
What I would like to do is fully understand how this data source connection works.
Don, when I open the report now and hit f5 the report presents me with the parameters and not the database login screen as it was doing before - how is this? What credentials is it using? The SQL sa account (which I configured the ODBC connection to use) or is it my domain account of which I assume permissions for this account must be set on the actual SQL database?
As you and Jeff suggested when I look at the datasource connection screen it shows "trusted Connection: 1" - what does this mean and how is this configured, have I configured this in Crystal somewhere?
Thanks
Andy

Data sources in Embedded OC4J Server Preferences

I tried to modify JNDI name in data sources of Current Workspace, however, the
value couldn't be saved and it was restored to the default one ("xxxCoreDS").
Is it a bug?
The JDev is studio edition version 10.1.3.0.4
Thanks

For each connection that is created with wizard for "Database connections" a data source is created. Names should not /cannot be changed. I recommend you to create a new DataSource. Changing user-defined datasources should work without problem. Hope this help.

ERROR WHEN GENERATING EXPORT DATA SOURCE

But the problem is when I am generating export data source the following error is occurred.
Error: Data Source 81c_svrr does not exist in source system B3TCLNT800 of version A.
what could be the reason for the error?
Please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Venkat,
The problem is because of error in the Myself Connection , Check the Myself connection in the source systems and the activate and restore the connection and try, it should work..

Recover Child Data Source - System Center Data Protection Manager 2012 SP1

I'm trying to write a script that, given an input file, recovers data from 1st of the month redirected to a folder.
It's all working, but I need to be able to restore only a folder from a D: drive that is protected for instance.
how can I restore a folder and it's contents from powershell? I can restore and redirect a whole drive for the recovery point I want, but I can't figure out how to restore a childdatasource. I've identified the cds, but how can I make that a recoverableitem
to feed the recover cmdlet?
Mark

Child data source isn't the way to do this, I should have checked each recoverable item in the recovery point, that would like the top level items such as top level folders/vm's/sql dbs, etc.

Error in Creation of BW data source

Hi All,
While creating a data source, i am selecting the Origin type Business ware house cube & in the RFC destination field i can able to select the BW syste. The problem is when i go to the next filed BW report and try to get the relevant BW report from F4 the system shows a log error as "System error in System" Message no. CRM_MKTTG_DS_MISC033.
In second case
I have taken an existing BW Data source and tried to recreate it manually filling all the fields with existing data source, RFC destination, BW report, Business partner and Function module.
In this case the system doesnu2019t throws any error, it is working fine if I create manually.
I am in a dilema why the system behaving like this. could you please throw some light on this issue.

Unable to capture the Data Source into a Transport Request

Hi All,
We have a product hierarchy and we are using the data source :4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER for the hierarchy.
Now we need to transport this structure to the quality environment but we were not able to capture the datasource:4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER into a transport request.
When ever we activate the data source:4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER it is asking for the Package and the Transport Request Number.If we give these details and save it, data source is not getting captured in the request, only the "bject Directory Entry" is getting captured.
Can someone please guide me on how to capture the datasource under "Data Sources in BW" in a transport request.
Regards,
Sachin Dehey.

Hi Sachin,
Hierarachy datasource is not captured as Attributes and Text Datasource. So what ever you have done is correct.
What ever is captured in Object Directory Entry is correct. So go ahead with your transports, once transport is done check the Hierarchy Infopackage with Available OLTP hierarchies and load the data.
Most important thing first see that the all Master & Transactional Datasources are transported in R/3 Dev to QA to PRD
In BW, datasources are not transported, only their replica is transported.
Transportation of Datasource is done in R/3. Only their replica is transported in BW.
So wht ever you have done till now is correct. So go ahead.
While attaching Hierarchy Datasource it is captured only in "Object Directory Entry"
Regards,
Vishnu.
