Shared services installation.

through configuration utility - i am unable to configure shared services (configure database and deploy to App Server) .
Given username & Password ( hypuser and password ) for SID (hypuser)
on Database configuration details popup.
got the below error,
"unable to connect to the database for the product Hyperion Shared services"
My Question is ,
Do i need to create SID on oracle(database) , if so how can i create?
Do i have to create users hypuser on oracel.
Note: SID- "hypuser" and username "hypuser" are read only.

kindly provide the details like version,o/s,database and what error you are facing.
Main Idea behind successful installation is Prerequisite, if you go through it properly and follow according to Installation guide
anyway give the details.
Thanks

Multiple shared services installs in the same environment?

In IOP 11.1.2 and beyond, shared services handles user authentication, to take advantage of Active Directory.
Can you install EPM shared services on 2 nodes in the same environment (failover in case one goes down)?
Is this possible or recommended?
Thank you.

I posted this message also in the Forum: Server & Storage Systems: Administration - General : Installation.
I'll also double-check the install documentation. A quick google of "EPM Shared Services" and some choice keywords revealed a link to this:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/epm-hss-active-active-clusters-wp-1-132647.pdf
Note that one of the instructions in the active-active-clusters white paper is to install shared services on two nodes, to prevent a single point of failure.
This location http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation includes EPM DR instructions.
Highly recommended reading.
I apologize to the group for wasting the bandwidth on this question.
Thank you.

Shared Services Installation Error

Hi all
im very new to Essbase and have little experience in the installation process.
I followed the documentation and managed to install Shared Services (SS) and the BI products.
I encountered and error when trying to install some essbase analysis products and could no longer start shared services. I proceeded to un-install and re-install the packages again thinking it would be simpler.
When i re-installed SS a fresh i received an error on the command line when attempting to start the configuration utility despite receiving non errors in the actual installation.
This is as follows:
'JRE or JDK not found. Exiting'
'Java Home not Set'
'Exiting'
I checked the instalation log and found this:

hi,
I have the same supported Version of ORACLE APPLICATION SERVER 10g 10.1.3.1 and for the not able to see the Hyperion Shared Services service in Services.msc as while installing Shared Services there no Option like Deploy as Windows services so not able to see there i think.Please correct me if wrong.
Here i have one doubt while Configuring Shared Services with Oracle Application Server we are not specified the port number for Shared Services. So is it takes the same PORT number and URL is
http://<servername>:58080/interop/
Please clarify me.

even restart of the server didnt work....
can anyone let me know the reason for this
even tried to use recovery.bat scripts.....
one more question do i need to re-configure all the applications installed on the server....
Thanks in advance....
Edited by: user649524 on Jan 6, 2009 7:39 PM

If you remove the OpenLdap directory (\Hyperion\SharedServices\9.3.1\openLDAP) , then run the shared services installer again it should create it again.
You will have to configure Shared services again, as for keeping your registered apps I am not so sure on, you might be lucky and reuse the same database when you configure, if not then you will have lost it all and will have to reregister the products with SS.
Strange you couldn't recover the openldap db usually it is fine if you roll it back to a date when it was working fine.

What determines the location of the shared services log files

I've just completed an install and configuration of Shared Services 9.2.1. The shared services log files, SharedServices_Security.log, SharedServices_Admin.log, etc., are being written to the C:\WINDOWS\system32\null\logs\SharedServices9 path. These files should be written to the Tomcat application folders in the Shared Services home, CSS_HOME, folder. e.g. d:\hyperion\sharedservices\9.2\appserver\installedapps\tomcat\5.0.28. This is according to the Shared Services installation documentation.
Is there any way to get these log files written to the d: drive? The following references sharedservices.logdir from the hsslogger.properties file but I don't see where a value is set that I can change.
log4j.appender.FILE.File=${sharedservices.logdir}${file.separator}SharedServices_Security.log
Thanks,
Tom

Hi there!
Are you looking for the AOM log file?
By default it´s located at:
SIEBEL_ROOT\ENTERPRISE\SIEBEL_SERVER\log
If you can´t find the AOM log files here, try to check the "Log directory" server parameter value.
Best regards,
João Paulo

Shared services registration failed in HFM 11.1.1.3

We have installed the following products on the following
servers
1) Shared services server Repository : Oracle 11g installed
in 64 - bit Enterprise Linux.
2) 64 Bit HFM Installation in Windows 2003 Server.
3) Shared services installation done in Windows 2003 32-bit
OS.
4) IIS is up & running in the same (Windows 2003 Server- 64
Bit) where HFM is installed.
5) Also the shared services is accessible by using the URL
( in the Windows 2003 Server- 32 Bit)
**We are facing a problem with during the Web server configuration for HFM & shared services registration.**
the following system installers are also used :
1) V17382-01 (64 BIT SYSTEM INSTALLER)
2) V17397-01 (64 BIT FOUNDATION SERVICES 1)
3) V17369-01 (64 BIT FOUNDATION SERVICES 2)
4) V17370-01 (64 BIT FOUNDATION SERVICES 3)
5) V17372-01 (64 BIT FOUNDATION SERVICES 4)
Thanks in advance!!!

Sorry to have forgotten one more installable:
6) V17365-01.zip ( 64 Bit HFM installable)
Also if the ISS server is running in the 32-bit mode , does it affect the EPM configuration??
How do i check whether the IIS server is running in the 32 bit Mode or 64 - bit Mode.

UsersByGroup SS report crashing;Shared Services Users not removed correctly

Apparently, there are not many experts on Shared Services – nor is there much documentation.
We have an urgent need to get a Users By Group report successfully run from an Shared Services installation today (auditors!)! Opening a support ticket as well as making last ditch attempts to get more suggestions on how to resolve.
It appears as those the users causing the problem (the UsersByGroup Shared Services reports crashes) are NTLM. Apparently, several users were removed – before they were de-provisioned. Now they are not appearing on the default area but are appearing in other areas within SS. An attempt to re-add them failed to sync them back up (likely gave them each a new SID). We believe it is likely that the two issues are related (the not quite completely deleted users and the User By Group report bombing out – due to a user – since the provisioning is there, but the user is not, for these instances). Two of the Users show under Admin also, which should not be the case.
Any suggestions on next steps would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
You should have a look at using the Update Native Directory Utility, this will clear out any stale users in your OpenLdap.
It should be situated in \Hyperion\common\utilities\SyncOpenLdapUtility
There is a zipped file called UpdateNativeDir.zip
It does have a read me on how to use it but it is pretty simple, on windows it is something like updateNativeDir.bat -cssLocation <location to your>CSS.xml
e.g updateNativeDir.bat -cssLocation C:\Hyperion\deployments\Tomcat5\SharedServices9\config\CSS.xml
You may need to update the bat file to include the correct location to your Java Home, you will get an error message anyway if it is not set correctly when you run the batch file.
It will create a log of all stale users removed.
Good luck.

Configuration of EPM 11.1.2 Shared Services issue during installation

Hi,
I am running into issue with configuration of Shared Services after installing EPM 11.1.2 on my machine. I am running the installation on Windows 8 and 64 Bit. All of the components that I wanted installed successfully. After that I went into the Configuration for Shared Services, I ran into the issue with the status of Deploy Application to Server not completed successfully (configuring...). I was hoping to configure one thing at a time as suggested in the blogs.... then I'd configure Essbase and not Financial Reporting...in that sequence. Thus, I also do not see any of the services installed under Foundation Services; Shared Services URL, Start EPM nor Start FoundationServices (Oracle Weblogic 10) tmplink.
I've tried to search online but found nothing specific on the issue. Am I missing something? Please help.
Thanks

Windows 8 has not been officially released yet so don't expect EPM products to support it.

Cannot Connect to Shared Services DB after 11.1 installation

I uninstalled 9.3.1 and then installed 11.1
When I start the configuration process, the foundation services asks to connect to the Shared Services Database. I don't get the option of selecting Perform 1st Time Configuration (it is greyed out), the only choice is connect to previously configured shared services database. When I put in the name of the other shared services database, from the 9.3.1 installation, I get the following error:
Shared Services database content not found in the specified database
I am go to the uninstaller, but there is not an option to uninstall just shared services.
Any ideas would be appreciated

John,
I renamed the file in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Universal\common\Gen1\_vpddb directory. When I ran the configuration again, I still do not get the option to configure a new db, and I still get the error from the original post.
I have attached the vpd.properties file the was just created

Hyperion 11 Installation -Shared Service registration is failed for essbase

Hi All,
Today, i was installing Hyperion 11 EPMA system. Here is my scenario:
Installed and configured "Foundation" on one system. Installed "Essbase" products on another system in the same network (Not installed HbNet components). While configuring Essbase products it never asked for Shared Services Server location and hence the essbase products registration with Shared services is failed at the end.
I checked in the services of second system and wonder to see "OpenLDAP" service is running. (I was not able to uncheck "Hyperion Foundation" product options during Essbase product configuration).
I have given the same database schema details used to configure database for the shared services. Am i missing anything. Please help.
Thanks,
Pr

It seems you have server1 for foundation services and server2 for essbase only.
Try this scenario with the following steps:
1.For server1, Install and configure your database , Install and configure your foundation services.
after your done with server1
2.for server2, Install and configure foundation services. Point your database to server1.
after your done successfully, with no errors.
Proceed to installation and configuration of essbase products.

Hi Hohn,
Thanks for your response.
I'm little confused the way to configure EPM products in a distributed environment. Registration of essbase related product with shared services is still failing even mentioned to use "Previously configured shared services database" on Shared services and Registry database page.
From the installation guide: 1. Using the database administration console, change the password of the user account that was used to configure the Shared Services database.
2. Do i need to stop shared services web application and OpenLDAP while configuring "Essbase" products on another system.
Please address the above points and help.Thanks!!
