SmartView 11.1.2 Can't Connect to Shared Services

I have posted this thread on the essbase forum, also...
I have installed 11.1.2 on Windows 2008 (64bit) in stand-alone mode. I also have Excel 2007 installed on the same machine. I took all of the default ports when setting up the server instance. I installed SmartView(32bit) on the same machine with no errors. When I try to connect to "Shared Connctions" through the SmartView home window, I keep receiveing an error message: "Connection to Shared Services failed Error Message: 'Cannot connect to provider. The server name could not be resolved.' I have tried replacing the server name with it's physical IP address,; I have tried all of the typical ports; but cannot seem to resolve the problem. My URL reads as follows: "http://testsys:13080/workspace/SmartViewProviders' I have a 11.1.1.3 instance on another server works fine, but the URL is a bit different (http://server:13080/aps/SmartView). I have tested and confirmed that all of the shared services are up and running and can be accessed from either EAS console or a web browser. Any help would be appreciated.

Have you installed and APS (Analytic Provider Server) on your system..??
As I know, to connecting to Essbase using Smartview, we need to install the APS on our system.

Can't connect to analysis services

Hi,
After looking through the forum, I haven't seen the problem I encounter.
I am able to connect to the Database Engine, Integration services, Reporting Services but I can't connect to Analysis Services from SQL Server Management Studio although the service is running.
I am using SQL Server 2012.
I have the following error :
Internal error: An unexpected error occurred (file 'pfshcollation.cpp', line 323, function 'PFCollation::Init'). (Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services)
The progam location is:
at Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.AdomdConnection.XmlaClientProvider.Connect(Boolean toIXMLA)
at Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.AdomdConnection.XmlaClientProvider.Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.AdomdConnection.IXmlaClientProviderEx.ConnectXmla()

What can I do to connect?

Hi Thush,
According to your description, you get the above error when connecting SSAS in SSMS. Right?
In Analysis Services, this error turns out to be a the data provider issue. I suggest you re-install the OLE DB Provider for SQL Server 2012.
On the Installation page, choose New SQL Server stand-alone installation or add features to an existing installation.
On the Installation Type page, choose Perform a new installation of SQL Server 2012.
On the Setup Role page, choose SQL Server Feature Installation.
On the Feature Selection page, click Client Tools Connectivity. This option installs
Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Xmla.dll
Do not select any other features.
Click Next to finish the wizard, and then click Install to run Setup.
Reference:
Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 SP1 Feature Pack
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

SmartView Connection to Shared Services Error

I have installed 11.1.2 on Windows 2008 (64bit) in stand-alone mode. I also have Excel 2007 installed on the same machine. I took all of the default ports when setting up the server instance. I installed SmartView(32bit) on the same machine with no errors.

Any help would be appreciated.

Did you assign your Hyperion Provider Services URL?
I am guessing that 11.1.2 hasn't changed that much from 11.1.1.3.
In 11.1.1.3, it's under Options and is in the lower right hand side of the Options form.
When you have that set, and then click the Connect button in the Data Source Manager, and then Connect to Provider Services, what happens?
You should see: Oracle BI Server, Oracle Essbase, and Oracle Planning. Do you get that far?

Apple: PLEASE FIX "Can't connect to bckgrnd services" issue

This is an appeal to Apple to please fix this "Can't connect to background services" bug/issue/problem that has plagued Compressor 2. We just went through a Pro Apps update and still it does not work. Sure there is the terminal workaround but it is a pain to have to do that every day. Your Compressor development is severely lacking as it has a number of issues which do not seem to be addressed. I am very close to going back to Squeeze. Please fix Compressor 2!

The discussion areas aren't used by Apple to gather bug reports or product feedback (at least not officially). You need to send feedback to Apple through one of the following links:

Unfortunately, there is no direct link for Compressor.

Connection to shared services provider failed

I am using:
Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.2
smart view 11.1.2.2.310
Microsoft Office 2010
Windows 8
When trying to connect from Excel with SmartView, i have the error, "Connection to shared services provider failed. The provider running at... is not a valid Shared Server provider."
I had test to connect in other PC and it works fine. Besides, i tried to connect to 2 servers (Development ande Production) and the same error is shown.
I had uninstall and install SmartView and nothing changed. I tried Smart View11125000 and the same error is shown.
Somebody know about this issue? or can help me??
Regards!!
Natalia

What happens if you use a browser and type the shared connection url in it?
Did you try connecting using a private connection?

Connecting to Shared Services via java API

Hello All -
I am new to using Shared Services and I would like to know how to connect to Shared Services using a java API. We are using release 11.1.1.2 and I have found and read the documentation on how to maintain users and groups. The examples in the documentation demonstrates how to the task but assumes you have already connected to shared services or you know how to connect. Any help will be appreciated.
Keep in mind this is not an Essbase connectivity question but shared services.
Thanks

Sorry double post

SmartView DataSource manager - no link to connect to provider services.

Hi,
I have opened up excel and I want to connect to provider services. I have selected the "Hyperion" tab and then clicked on "Connect".
Now on the right side i see a "SmartView Data Source Manager"
But there is no link "Connect to Provider Services" which i can use to connect to essbase.
I have re-installed smartview but I dont get the link when i click "Connect".
I have removed and added the addin for smartview but still i do not see the link.
Can anybody tell me what's happening ?
Thanks,
Pawan.
P.S.: This is only on my system. On another system i get the link and am able to connect to essbase through smartview.
Thanks,
Pawan.

Dumb question but have you configured the Foundation after installation? Also you mention Foundation and Smart View but no other Hyperion products..have you installed any other products or is this a standalone Essbase instance?

Mac using Acrobat Pro v9 can't connect to shared review hosted on Sharepoint server.

A person at our company has a Mac with Acrobat Pro v9 and can't connect to our shared review hosted on a Sharepoint server. The shared review is initiated from a PC using Acrobat Pro X.
They can access/login to the Sharepoint server via Safari on the same computer both inside the company and from outside.
They used to have it working just fine for months, then suddenly (recently) it stopped working and it just keeps saying that it can't connect.
When trying to connect, Acrobat doesn't ask for credentials. I've tried hunting down where those credentials are stored to try and delete them to force it to ask again, but no luck there either.
I also have a Mac (but I'm running Acrobat Pro XI and now DC) and I can access the same shared review that doesn't work for them. And I can't seem to break it for me (as an effort to figure out their problem).
Any helpful guidance on how to get things back on track would be greatly appreciated. My head hurts from beating it against my desk. :-|
Thanks!

Several of us encountered the same issue running MAC OS X on Acrobat Pro XI. I'm tagging your question to see if someone provides a solution.

Suddenly can't connect to shared computers or screen share

For some reason I can no longer connect to my shared computers. I can however connect to MY computer from my shared computers, if that makes sense.
From my own computer, when I go to my shared list in the finder, I click on a computer (normally it all automatically connects because I have the password remembered), I click "connect as" and I never get any response, sometimes a "connection failed" I know file sharing is enabled on all computers.
Is there a way to refresh my list? What can I do to reconnect to my shared computers? This seems to have been happenings since I last updated the OS.
Also, I can no longer do a screen share where I was doing this regularly every day.
Thanks
Dan

Can't connect to shared computer

I am trying to transfer some files from my old mini to my new macbook. I have the folders shared on the mini I want to transfer and can see the mini in the finder on the macbook. The problem is I can't connect. I get an error stating "the server may not exist or is unavailable. Check the server name or address, network connection and try again" Both compters are on and connected wirelessly to my network. Anyone have any ideas of what the problem is? Thanks
I found a work around for this problem. I turned off the firewall on both computers. I'm sure there is a better or the correct way to do this so still any help would be appreciated for the future.

If you are downstream from the router, you probably don't need the firewall on.
Did you set up System Preferences/Sharing on both computers?

SmartView cant connect to Shared Services

Hello!
When i open SmartView, type the Shared Services URL and press the "Update Button", i get this error:
"Error getting information from the Hyperion Shared Services Server"
Does anybody know what can it be? I searched in Shared Services logs and didnt find anything.
I have Essbase and Shared Services (usiing MSAD), version 9.3.1. Windows XP 32 bits.
The URL i type is the default "http://<serverIP>:58080", as i installed in default port.
Everything else about Shared Services seems to be working fine.
As far as i understand, i dont need to install Provider Services to access like that, do i?
Thanks!

catch(Api.StatusException e)

Thank's for the help.

Nevermind. It was a user name conflit. We have 3 possible ways to log on (lastname, firstname) (firstname lastname) (emailaddress). The Oracle Calendar Client would take all three, but the Connector would only accept the first 2.
Hope this helps someone else.
