SQL Server 2005 SSAS connect to BI possible?

Hi there,
I have tested the new .Net Data Provider 1.0 for SAP Netweaver BI in SQL Server Reporting Service (SSRS). What I am wondering is that could SQL Server Analysis Service (SSAS) connect to SAP BI, too? How to do this?
Best Regardly

Dear Tom,
You can use Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS) for this connection or through XML for Analysis (XML/A) (an XML standard for Online Analytical Processing - OLAP) it can be done. But I am not sure weather this service is available or not as SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services, which is now certified to run reports on SAP BW.
As I have never ventured in this, I would suggest you to use documentations of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS) and SSAS given by MS.
Also have a look at this doc:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/4ab89e84-0d01-0010-cda2-82ddc3548c65
Hope it helps.

Ashish

Linked Servers - Sql server 2005 to connect to Oracle 11g using ldap.ora instead of tnsnames.ora

We have a SQL Server 2005 64bit box that needs a linked server created to Oracle 11g 64bit box. I have all the Oracle client software installed and can successfully connect to the Oracle database using SQL+ on the SQL Server 2005 64bit box. When I create
the linked server and select the OraOledb.Oracle provider, I get the TNSNames error. The Oracle server does not use tnsnames.ora it uses OLAP.ora to resolve. How do I get Linked server to stop trying to connect via TNSNames and use the OLAP.ora file instead?
I can't find any articles for this specific issues. All Oracle examples tell you to use TNSNAMES. The Oracle server is not under my companies control so I can not force the vendor to use tnsnames instead of OLAP.

Hi,
Have you got a resolution?
Thank you.

SQL Server 2005 Express Connection problems

Hello,
I have been trying for the past 2 hours to connect CFMX 8 to SQL Server 2005 Express on my windows7 laptop and it is throwing all kinds of errors.
"Connection verification failed for data source: sqlHPV
java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket. Unknown host: SQLExpress
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket. Unknown host: SQLExpress"
Please I need help.

Try using an IP address instead of SQLExpress for the host name. If it is on the same box, use 127.0.0.1 and make sure SQLExpress in configured for IP communication.

Hi,
Thanks for your time and help, but I couldn't able to see the database itself.
as I know my computer name is database name but SQL Server is not providing that.
and its showing network data base names.
If I type the database name and user is sa...but there is no luck in connecting...
is there any way that we can define server name and user names??? also it doesn't ask for any database name or user name during installation of SQL Server 2005
I'm not a SQL person so, please help me in this regard.
Thanks, Pooja

PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleSoft Database Cannot Connect with MS SQL Server 2005

Folks,
Hello. I am working on PeopleSoft PIA. My system is Windows Server 2003, MS SQL Server Express 2005 Standard, PeopleTools 8.49. I am setting up PeopleSoft Database \PsMpDbInstall\setup.exe and got the errors as follows:
Error: Setup fails to connect to SQL Server. The default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connection.
Then I type in "sqlcmd" in Command Prompt and got the same error as follows:
Name Pipe Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server. MS SQL Native Client: the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connection.
In order to fix SQL Server 2005 remote connection problem, I have done the 3 steps as follows:
Step 1: In SQL Server Surface Area Connection, enable local and remote connection, TCP/IP and Name Pipes, SQL Server browser Startup type "automatic" and status "running".
Step 2: Create exception for SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server browser Service in Windows Firewall.
Step 3: Add the default SQL Server Port 1433 into Windows Firewall.
But the above 3 steps cannot resolve SQL Server Express 2005 remote connection problem. Can any folks help to resolve this problem ?
Thanks.

Folks,
Management Studio can connect with SQL Server 2005 successfully.
I have turned off Windows Server 2003 firewall completely. But "sqlcmd" in Command Prompt still connect with SQL Server 2005 because its remote connection is not allowed.
Is the "not allow remote connection" problem caused by Windows Firewall or SQL Server 2005 itself ?
Thanks.

Hello,
Make sure your SQL Server service is started.
Make sure TCP\IP and names pipes protocol is enabled
Make sure you have made an exception in firewall for SQL Server connection
Make sure SQL Server browser service is enabled
Make sure you connect with correct name hostname\instance name for named instance,MSSQLSERVER for default instance and Hotname\SQLEXPRESS for express edition.
Please make sure you use port no when connecting to SQL server listeing on different port (hostname\instance ,portno)

Connect SQL Server 2005 from 10g-PLSQL - Possible???

Hi Friends, I am getting so many errors while doing SQL Server 2005 conversion from SQL Developer. SQL developer version 1.2 is very bad, so I downloaded version 1.5. Still so many errors.
SQL Server2005 to Oracle 10g R2
Migration workbench was working fine in 8.17.

Some issues with SQL Developer.
Ex: if sequence is there, it is not dropping and creating again. Even though I created new fresh schema, still I am getting the same error.

Creating MS SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services OLAP connection

Hello,
I am trying to add an OLAP data source in BI Publisher (which is part of the OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 suite I have installed). However, the connection never seems to create - I don't get an error or a success message when I test the connection. However, if I cancel out of the create connection screen, I get this error: "Your request was denied as you have no permission to access the data.". This is odd since the credentials I am using have admin rights to the OLAP cube I am attempting to connect to.
SETUP
OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 x86_64 bit Linux
MS SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services running on Windows Server Enterprise (32 bit) 2007 SP2
Windows users are able to connect to the Windows/SQL server via Excel 2007 and its built-in Analysis Services "Other Data Sources" option. Authentication is done via Windows Active Directory LDAP
QUESTIONS
1) In the BI Publisher connection screen, can I enter my AD username/password, or because I am connecting from a Linux Server, do I need to authenticate via a different method?
2) In the connection string, the initial catalog I am attempting to connect to has spaces in its name. Could this be an issue?
3) Given the "no permission to access data" message I am getting, is it possible I am reaching the SQL Server but need to set up a local database, non-AD account to access the OLAP catalog?
4) Are there any logs in the OBIEE server that I can check for more details?
Thanks!

With the new productivity pack for Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 (Service Pack 2) you can access SSAS 2005 through the new OLAP tool called Voyager. The productivity pack is due out sometime in the next few weeks.
Hope this helps.

Connecting BI 7.0 SR2 with MS SQL Server 2005

Dear SAP Gurus,
We have a scenario to connect an External Database MS SQL Server 2005 with BI 70 SR2 Server.
The platform details are as follows :-
BI 7.0 SR2
Oracle 10.0.2.8 Database
AIX 5.3
When we were on an older platform BW 3.5 we had installed an Windows Application Server for connecting to SQL Server.
I was told that in the latest system BI 7.0 it is possible to connect to SQL Server via AIX.
Now when i raised a message to SAP , they tell me that it is necesary to have an Windows Application Server.
If any one has connected an BI 7.0 on AIX to MS SQL Server 2005 , Please let me know.
Regards,
Ashish .A. Poojary

Hello Ashish,
U can connect BI 7 to SQL using UD Connect even they are running on different operating system.

Connect to SQL Server 2005 Express MDF file

Post Author: ims_user
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Is it possible to connect directly to a SQL Server 2005 Express MDF file? Every time I select SQL Native Client it expects me to put in a server name etc, but there is no where to put in a file name or connection string. My application connects to this file directly using this in the connection string
Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=
I now need to report on the data it contains.
Many thanks.

Can you help me?

I have just installed Sql Developer v1.2, but haven't solved problem.
Any ideas?
