SAP Integration Kits 3.1 and BOE 3.1

I have downloaded the BOE 3.1.
Following Ingo's blog to install the XI 3.1 (http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs;jsessionid=(J2EE3414900)ID1014068050DB12009102240881561803End?blog=/pub/wlg/11076), I have a very different screen after specifying the Server Intelligent Agent. I have a screen where I need to specify CMS Database Infomartion:
Database
Server
Port
Username
Password
I have specify the above parameters but hits the following error:
BusinessObjects Enterprise CMS: Unable to connect to the CMS system database "MySQL_CMS:Marcos:3306".
Reason: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'Marcos' (10061)
Does it mean that I would need to configure/setup the MySQL Server on my server (Marcos) first?
Please advise, thank you.

because there is MySQL installed on the system already.
You have to either use this MySQL where you need to create the database first.
OR
Delete/uninstall this MySQL. When you install the BOE, BOE will automatically install the MySQL for you.

SAP Integration kit for BO XIR2 with Crystal XI for BI 7.0 Front end

Hello Team,
We are in a little fix.
We have BOE XIR2, Crystal XI and working with old version of BI front-end 3.5.
We are upgrading to BI 7.0 frontend, but I am not able to trace out the SAP Integration kit for combination of BOE XIR2, Crystal XI and BI7.0.
Is such a thing available, If yes can someone send a link to that.
Regards
Lalan Kanade

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply
I could trace this document. "BusinessObjects Enterprise XI Release 2 SP3 for Windows"
I checked in "Supported Data Sources for Crystal Rep" section, extract below
SAP BW Server 3.0b SAP GUI 620 or 640
SAP BW Server 3.1c SAP GUI 620 or 640
SAP BW Server 3.5 SAP GUI 640.
But we are using BW Server 7.0 with GUI 7.1 and that working fine even with BOXIR2 and Crystal XI with Old Front End for BI 3.X.
But when we are testing with BOXIR2 and Crystal XI with BI New Front End 7.0 its missing components from the query output.
So the SAP Integration kIt seems old & we need a new Kit which would work with BI New Front End 7.0.
Any suggestions on that
Regards
Lalan

Installing SAP Integration Kit on BO Cluster

Hello Gurus,
I have a Business Objects Cluster with 2 servers, On the first server SAP Integration Kit was installed and configured and working as expected.
when i installed BO XI on second server and clusterd it to Server 1 , It went fine and working good.
when i tried to install SAP integartion KIT on server 2, installation goes succesfull, as soon as SAP Integration kit installed, BO XI is not working .
When i opened the CMC link, it says TOM cat is down and error with platformservices.
Gurus,
Could some one please let me know how SAP integartion kit will be configured on Clustered BO environment.
Thanks & Regards
Prashanth

Hi,
The instllation of SAP Integrtion Kit updates the PlaformServices application and you can face such issues if there was any problem with the update of this application on the second server installation.
Copying the warfiles from the working server and deploying it on the tomcat should solve this issue.
Regards,
Ramu.

BOE 3.1 and SAP Integration Kits 3.1

I have installed BOE XIR 2, and DataService 3.0 on this machine (machine A).
I dont use much on XIR2.
I build some simple data flow in DataService 3.0, the DataService use the BOE 3.0 that sitting on the other machine (machine B).
Now I have downloaded new BOE 3.1 and would like to install the SAP Integration Kit 3.1 on mcahine A.
I have uninstalled BOE XIR 2 from machine A. (I noticed that the Tomcat is still there, can't be uninstalled).
I have now installed BOE 3.1 on mahcine A. Everyting seem OK, and I point back to use the existing Tomcat.
Installation finish, no error.
I now go to Start ->Program ->BOE 3.1 menu, I dont get to see the BOE InfoView and BOE CMS.
When I click on the Start ->Program ->BOE 3.1 ->Designer, on the Designer logon screen, it is Machine B that appear on the System field. When I change to Machine A manually and logon, I have error message.
Any idea why the BOE 3.1 InfoView and CMS is missing?
Why it is machine B appear as the System?
Why I can't change manually to machine A? It seem like the CMS is missing, but why?
Please help, need this to demo the client...

BOE XI 3.1 + SAP Integration Kit on AIX 5.3 with WebSphere 6.1 (SOLVED)

Hi everybody!
On a recent installation I encountered a problem with SAP Integration Kit using BW Query with prompts; I want to share with you what I did to solve this problem:
First of all, the environment:
IBM Server with AIX 5.3
BO Repository on DB2 9.5
Application Server IBM WebSphere 6.1
BOE XI R3.1
Crystal Reports 2008 SP1
After installing and configuring everything on the system, I encountered some problem launching in InfoView reports created with Crystal Reports 2008 based on BW query with SAP Prompts.
The error that I recieved everytime was:
com.sap.mw.JCO.$Function
What I did to solve this was:
1) Configure the absolute complete classpath inside the Application Server (path/sapjco.jar)
2) Put the sapjco.jar version 2.18 at 32bit (unix version) that you can download at https://websmp108.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000463654&
Hope this helping you
Bye

Dear Gurus,
The issue I am facing is described exactly in the document "Upgrading to CR 2008 V1 / SP1" by Blair Wheadon.
The problem occurs when installing CR2008v1 and BOE 3.1 on the same machine.
The solution is to download and install SP1.
Unfortunately for me, I have downloaded SP1 but the installation is not going well.
Message prompts that installation files are corrupt and that I should download again.
I have downloaded twice. And tried several times.
So I guess it might be due to the platform.
But why wasn;'t the message displayed after BOE3.1 installation was completed?
Do you guys have an idea?

BOE SAP integration kit issue - Java connector

I am trying to install BO applications on one of the TPC system (TPC5).
BOE XI 3.1 Sp3 (using tomcat)
SAP Integration Kit SP3 win for IA32bit
For java connector i am using files from sapjco-ntintel-2.1.8 (tried using 2.1.9 and 3.0.5 as well)
BOE installation goes thru fine and Java Info view, CMC all works fine
Now when i try installing the integration kit it gives some problem during identifying the java connector
I did save the sapjco.jar file in C:\program files\business object\tomcat55\shared\lib folder as specified in all installation guides
But still it do not identify it properly and says Java infoview might not work properly.
So i still go ahead and see that Java infoview doesn't work. Neither does the CMC.
Though WebI still works fine and can acces data from SAP BI system properly.
I have looked a lot into forums but couldnt find the reason other than placing librfc32.dll, sapjcorfc.dll and sapjco.jar files in respective places.
(i did register the librfc32.dll using regsvr32 librfc32.dll)
I have tried installing and uninstalling this couple of times.
Also when i only uninstall the integration kit. Somehow the CMS server stops and doesnt start again.
and hence have to uninstall BOE as well. Any trick here will help too.
Could it be the SP3 version of BOE or SP3 version of the integration kit?
Or
Could I be missing some step?
Thanks
Ritesh

Hi Ingo,
I have installed it couple of times and since it didnt work I uninstalled it along with BOE and Crystal reports.
Now, I again installed only BOE and crystal reports.
I did try installing the integration kit but since it donot recognizes the Tomcat Web application server in the 3rd step
I donot proceed ahead.
The SAP Java connector file (sapjco.jar) is placed in a folder
C:\Program Files\Business Object\Tomcat55\shared\lib\
When running the integration kit, in the 3rd step when is asks for configuring the tomcat server it
has a default path of
C:\Program Files\Business Object\Tomcat55\
On clicking next it says files not found.
So i change the path to
C:\Program Files\Business Object\Tomcat55\shared\lib\
On clicking next it brings up a pop message saying
No Compatible Web Server found.
I stop there and exit the setup process
I tried verifying the version of librfc32.dll which is installed along with the installation of the SAP GUI (710)
Then for the SAP connector i download it from the service.sap.com\connectors the 2.1.9 version for 32bit
And copy sapjco.jar file into the above mentioned folder and
copy sapjcorfc.dll into C:\windows\system32 folder.
And then run the integration kit.
Thanks

Error using CR 11.5 with dynamic cascading prompts and SAP Integr.Kit XI R2

Hi,
we are using the SAP Integration Kit XI R2 (patched up to FP4.3) in order to report SAP BW data (BW 3.5) in Crystal Reports 11.5 (SP 4). In order to access the stored BEx Queries we use either the SAP BW Query or the SAP BW MDX Query Driver (_we DO NOT use any universes_). Everything seems to work fine ex cept when we want to use dynamic cascading LOVs within CR. For example when a user runs a report she/he should select first a customer group (0CUST_GROUP prompt) and then the customer (0DEBITOR). Defining the cascading prompts with dynamic LOVs is no problem in CR and when the report runs (either in CR Designer or in InfoView) both prompts appear. Still when we do a selection for the first prompt (0CUST_GROUP) we get a 0x8004380D error with the text message stating that the system is not able to retrieve the LOV data (I guess for the 0DEBITOR prompt). Please note that we do not get a corba error and no firewalls are activated. We checked the trace files of the page server and found out that there was an error calling the createRowsetCursor function within enginekernel.cpp.
Any hints on our case will be mostly appreciated. We have the feeling that we are hitting a bug here but maybe we are overseeing something.
Cheers
Stratos
PS: Please note that if we access directly the ODS Object (SAP ODS driver) the dynamic cascading prompts on exactly the same InfoObject (or better their keys in the ODS) work without a problem.

Hi Stratos
You can define LOV's in universes but unfortunately you can not use universes based on SAP in Crystal Reports.
You can define parameters in the Bex query which are passed on to Crystal Reports, so you don't need to define them in the Business Objects tools. Please have a look at the SAP Integration Kit user's guide

Crystal Reports 10 and SAP Integration Kit

Hi,
we have a customer using crystal reports 10. Is it possible to use the SAP Integration Kit for version 10? When installing the Kit (Version XI 3.0) there is an error that we do not use CR 2008.
Thanks in advice
Claudia

Hello Claudia,
the SAP Integration Kit is always dependent on the product releases. there is a Crystal Reports v 10 and Crystal Enterprise v 10 and a SAP Integration Kit v 10 - but keep in mind that v 10 is already out of support.
Crystal Reports 2008 requires the SAP Integration Kit XI 3.x and BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.x

Crystal Report XI R2 compatablity with SAP Integration kit

Hi All,
we have suggested to one of our customer the Customized pack of BO XI Edge series which include the licensing of Xcelsius , WEBI , Universe designer, SAP Integration kit and Live office...
He dont want to pay extra for taking the license for cryatal report 2008 as they already using the Crystal Report XI R2 version which they use to do reporting on non SAP data.
My question is :
1 - Now they want to do reporting ove SAP data using the existing CR solution they have is it possible ??
2- Will the integration kit support the CR XI R2 version ??
3- Can he publish the Crystal Report created by CR XI R2 to the Business Object Edge Series plateform ??
They just want to use CR to do reporting on data from R/3 side .
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
Mishra,Vibhav.

Dear Ingo,
Thanks for the reply.
Actally we have suggested to our client the latest Edge Series Standard pack solution , excluding the crystal report licensing.
My question is will the integration kit which comes along with the Edge series will support the existing Crystal Report XI R2 and can the it be integrated with BOE(can he publish the reports created with the earlier version to the Business Object plateform).
If the above sceanario is not possibe then we have to purchse the older version of integartion and i doubt if we can purchse it stand alone in that case we would be having two integration kits running to solve the purpose.
Kindly suggest.
Warm regards,
Mishra Vibhav

BO XI 3.1 SP3 - SAP Integration Kit: Transports

Hi All,
My question is regarding the transports that need to be imported into SAP system so that it can connect with BOE. We are connecting our BW system with BOE, please let me know whether we need to move all transports in BW system only or we have to move transports in R3 system as well.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Ingo,
Please help us in solving the below issue:
We have installed BO XI 3.1 version with the following configurations.
Windows 2003 Server, SP2 64bit Version
Java: JDK 1.7 and JRE 1.7
BW: BW 3.5 version
BOE in Tomcat 5.5 App server
SAP integration kit 3.1 32 bit (51040568.zip)
The issue is that while integrating BOBJ with BW to import all the roles for SSO, we are unable to find the exact JCO files for doing the same. We tried with JCO 2.1.8, JCO 2.1.10 and JCO 3.0, but all the versions turned futile. After the initial installation with JCO 2.1.8 version (as per to Installation guide) we found neither CMC nor Java Infoview are working.
Please help us in identifying the right JCO for the proper installations and do we need to install SAP integration kit 3.1 SP3 ? This is pretty urgent
Regards,
Rajib

SAP Integration Kit installation - BW Publisher parameters

Hi,
We are working on an BO GRC RM 3.0 scenario (Windows/SQL Server). As per architecture requirements we are currently installing BOBJ Integration Kit for SAP. However the following doubt comes up. As per architecture requirement also, and as it was defined for our scenario there is no need for an BI system (AS JAVA was installed only as EP usage type) if the reporting is going to be used with BOE Crystal. What we need there, is to install and BOBJ SAP Integration kit on BOE XI 3.1 server and to import Crystal transport files in AS ABAP (SAP_ABA, SAP_BASIS, PI_BASIS, SAP_BW).
During the Integration Kit installation process we are being prompted for BW Publisher parameters where an RFc to a BW system is required. As mentioned earlier, we donu2019t have an BW system since BOE Crystal will be used instead of WebDynpro ABAP ListViewer...Are we using the incorrect Integration Kit? Should I install BI_Content Add-on installed on AS ABAP even when reporting is going to be used with Crystal Report?
Hoping being clear enough, please let me know if I can proceed with Integration kit installation in this way or should I have some other precautions for this particular solution implementation.
Thanks and best regards.

Hi,
in case you do not have SAP BW as part of the landscape then there is no need to install the publishing component

No Connection after installing SP 2.3 for SAP Integration Kit

Hello Community!
We just installed Service Pack 2 and Fix Pack 2.3 (in this order) for SAP Integration Kit on one of our client's servers. Before that everything worked fine. After the installation I verify the CE connection in /crystal/rptadmin. The result is:
Unable to log on to Enterprise system. Reason: Unable to log on: Could not connect to server vm103:6400. Please check that the server name is correct, and that the server is running.
I checked the RFC connection in sm59 but that works normally. BW Publisher Service is also running. The servers (BW and BO) are on the same machine: Windows 2008, 64bit, SQL Server, BOE XI 3.1 SP 2.
The BW Publisher Trace log shows the following entry:

When I try to log into BO Info View or CMC with my SAP credentials CMS crashes without any logs!
This is now the 2nd server with that issue!
Any ideas what this could be?
Thank!
phil

No, this happens only by logging in with SAP credentials.
CMS log file shows a huge list of entries like this one:
.\pluginhelper.cpp:276: TraceLog message 1

Error after uninstalling the SAP Integration Kit XI 3.0 on Unix

Hi all,
I have uninstalled the SAP Integration Kit XI 3.0 on a single solaris server installation. Uninstall was done exactly as instructed in the manual and everything looked ok.
Now when I try to go to the login page of CMC or InfoView I get an error:
type Status report
message /PartnerPlatformService/service/app/logon.do
description The requested resource (/PartnerPlatformService/service/app/logon.do) is not available.
Is the login page trying to look for the SAP authentication page that was removed ?
Is there some configuration still remaining somewhere that needs to be removed so I get the old login page back ?
Thanks for ideas, Timo

Thanks for pointing to the right direction. I changed the tomcat webapps web.xml file parameter and it was enought to start working again.
   <context-param>
        <param-name>config.logon.service.context</param-name>
        <param-value>/PlatformServices</param-value>

Error while installing SAP integration kit 3.1

Hi,
I installed SAP integration kit 3.1 on one server and it is working fine but when i am installing same installable on another server it is giving error as "Installation ended prematuarly because of an error". I dont know how to debug the error. Please help me.
Thamnks in advance

Hi Sonali,
had a similar problem on a Windows/Tomcat system. The installation was crashing before trying to deploy the .jar files. If you are facing the problem in a similar environment please make sure that you have copied the librfc32.dll and the sapjco.jar files in the correct directories. Especially for sapjco.jar doublecheck the path you have copied the file into.

Stratos
