Hi,
This is the order u need to start the services for Essbase.
1. Hyperion Administration services,
2. Hyperion Annotation server,
3. Hyperion Essbase services,
4. Hyperion Foundation openLDAP.
5. Hyperion Foundation Shared Services.
Its not necessary to start - Hyperion Integration Services. now u can see u r application & database in your Essbase servers.
Cheers,
MP.The version is 11.1.2.1, there is no openldap and the order of the services is less of an importance compared to previous versions.
Anyway your start order is incorrect as hss/openldap would need to be first.

I found a work around / solution: go to someone else's PC with a successful install and copy the workspace folder --- C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\Console\workspace\ -- and paste it into the same location on your PC. I think that some time during the install, even if you "Run as Administrator", these folders and files do not get created because there is insufficient access rights in Windows 7. I hope this helps someone!

How to install Essbase on your laptop from the Oracle Download site

Hello everyone,
I am attempting to install the download version of Essbase on my laptop from the Oracle site. I have downloaded the following Essbase-11113 part 1, Essbase-11113 part 2, and APS-11113 part 3. However I am at a loss as to what to do next. I didn't see any executible files in the downloads all I see are xml documents and .dat files so I am completely lost as to how to install the system and get a working copy of Essbase running. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
EC

I too have it installed on a VM -- Windows 2003 -- and it's a 32 bit OS. If you do want to move it to your real desktop, you'll need a bunch of directories and environment variables from your successful 32 bit install to make it work, even for the client. I think XP should be okay for just Essbase and maybe EAS. You can always install Excel on the VM as well and just keep it entirely self-contained.
SmartView on 64 bit, if you're using Excel 2007, is a non starter; it does work with Excel 2003 and I think it's slated for a fix in 11.1.2.
If you're as hopeless as I am when it comes to installations, make sure you take plenty of snapshots so you can roll back to the last working instance. I did the whole stack on my VM, so I had lots of things to get wrong.
I think those who know what they're doing when it comes to installs don't see it as a challenge -- I'm a developer, not an installer, so I found it it be be gruesome (the full stack, 64 bit Essbase on the real iron).
Good luck.
Regards,
Cameron Lackpour
P.S. Just to show that when it's all certified, it works, I was able to install AppliedOLAP's client (okay, Tim was watching over my shoulder, but still) on my Vista 64 bit without any trouble whatsoever. It worked like a charm.

What I have attempted:
- Attempted to connect to Shared Services, Workspace url's - YES
- Checked openLDAP & my Database is running - YES
- Added following to Configuration File :
SharedServicesLocation machinex 28080
AUTHENTICATIONMODULE CSS http://machinex:28080/interop/framework/getCSSConfigFile YES, but same error
- Changed essbase.bak to essbase.sec YES but same error
- netstat -an to check for 1423. Port 1423 is not listening, although ALL TCP Ports have been enabled. So YES but same error.
- Read Knowledgebase article # 954322.1 - the suggested things in there don't seem to apply to my case, unless I am missing something.
At this point does anybody have any suggestions ?

An update: Just for kicks, I tried restarting Essbase using Start->Programs-EPMSystem->Essbase->EssbaseServer->Essbase.bat and apparently now Essbase is started.
EAS, Studio and Planning however are down.

.... bunch of java code.
This is really strange. There is NOTHING that I changed, started or stopped which could have caused Essbase to start magically all of a sudden.
Any insights into the cause of all this ?

Cannot start Essbase application

Hi-
We could not start our Essbase application after stopping and starting Essbase services. This issue happens randomly, usually when big calcs are running and getting interrupted by the nightly backup process. We are killing all processes and logging off users before stopping the services, however we still seem to be running into "Cannot load application..." error depicted below when trying to start the services back up.. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Is there any better way to get rid of any hung processes besides "alter system kill request all;" command? Thank you in advance..

Please be careful.
When you kill a calc script, it can damage your app/db.
I would suggest to make sure that your calc script finish before your backup run, or run after the backup finish.

I have an apple tv 3 but when i use Home Sharing from my Windows Laptop the Apple TV shows all my music on the TV but it will only play 1 or 2 songs and then stops!!! Annoying, so I have to re-start iTunes on my Laptop and it will play 1 or 2 more songs

Can anyone assist me with this issue?
Thanks

To downgrade, you'll need to download the previous software version here: ATV3 http://appldnld.apple.com/AppleTV/041-4361.20120605.grjot/AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830 _Restore.ipsw
ATV2: http://appldnld.apple.com/AppleTV/041-4362.20120605.t8i4U/AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830 _Restore.ipsw
Next, plug the Apple TV into your computer with a micro-usb cable (most phones today use these) and start up Itunes. It should detect the Apple TV in recovery.
After that, hold down Option on Apple or Alt on Windows and click Restore. This should open a window that allows you to select the software update you want to apply. Select the one you downloaded earlier.
It will then go through the restore process, which takes only a few minutes, and then you will be able to plug the Apple TV back in to your display and set it up again.
I recently ran into a similar issue with a bunch of these things and after restoring them all to the previous software version they are working again.

Essbase 64-bit - Release 11.1.2 (ESB11.1.2.1.0B154)

I am an infrastructure idiot (I have all kinds of other idiocy available as well -- I am versatile), but I found:
http://troubleshooot.wordpress.com/2010/05/26/essbase-login-is-not-working/
To my ignorant eyes, this looks like some kind of *nix-centric issue.
If the post doesn't help, perhaps one of the infrastructure guys will chime in.

Problem starting Essbase 11.1.2.1

Hi. I have the next problem.
When I tried start Essbase, opmn have an error. In log file I see this:
ESSBASE / Error (1320022)
Attempt to find an Agent instance corresponding to arborpath [u01/app/hyperion/user_projects/epmsystem2/EssbaseServer/essbaseserver1] failed.
Looking essbase logs, I found this:
[ESSBASE0] [NET-17] [ERROR] [16][] [ecid:1316176939328,0] [tid:1] Host Name Not Available
I installed Essbase under Sun Solaris 10. "hostname" command returns right hostname.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.

Finally we can start the server doing a couple of things:
1. Edit all the entries in the ss repository with the all ip and changed to the new one
2. edit the /etc/hosts file and adding a fully qualified name for the essbase server (epm-essbase.sabeco.es)The worrying part is you have IP entries in the shared services registry, it shouldn't really be configured that way.

Stop and Start Essbase 11.1.2.2 services

Hi All
How to stop and start essbase 1.1.2.2 services? Do I just stop and start OPMN service? Or got to start menu and Oracle EPM System and Essbase to stop and start? Will both work?
Thanks

Yes you can just stop and start the OPMN service, the start menu option will do pretty much the same thing, for more information have a read of http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epm_install_1112200/ch12s02s08.html

How to Start Essbase without using OPMN in 11.1.2.1

All,
We have installed and configured Essbase 11.1.2.1 successfully on 64 bit AIX server. Now I need to know how to start the essbase without using OPMN?
As we can start essbase using :-  <EPM_ORACLE_HOME>\user_projects\epmsystem1\bin\startEssbase.bat  ; But this method will still use OPMN, if OPMN is not running it will first start up the OPMN processes and then start up Essbase. 
As we are not using Essbase clustering and so do not find OPMN more beneficial and moreover OPMN is not working properly to start any processes. so we just do not want to use OPMN in starting the essbase.
is there any workaround to just skip the OPMN while starting/stopping/restart essbase?
Thanks in advance,

In 11.1.2.0 there was startEssbase.bat at <EPM_HOME>\user_projects\epmsystem1\EssbaseServer\essbaseserver1\bin\startEssbase.bat 
which basically just called setEssbaseEnv.bat which sets a number of variables, one being %ESSBASEPATH% which points to <EPM_HOME>\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer
Then called %ESSBASEPATH%\bin\essbase.exe
This bypasses opmn
Now in 11.1.2.1 Oracle removed <EPM_HOME>\user_projects\epmsystem1\EssbaseServer\essbaseserver1\bin\startEssbase.bat 
but still left setEssbaseEnv.bat, it is possible to call setEssbaseEnv.bat and then %ESSBASEPATH%\bin\essbase.exe
Essbase starts up fine and bypasses opmn.
I would have thought it would be possible on other OS types as long as the environment variables are set first being starting up essbase.
Cheers

Starting essbase as background process in 11.1.2

Hi,
We have installed 11.1.2 hyperion products. We are having issues with OPMN and its starting up.Without opmn we can start essbase in freground ..using the script
startEssbase,bat file in D:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\EssbaseServer\essbaseserver1\bin. startEssbase.bat in this folder starts essbase onforeground.
the link between opmn and essbase is broken. So we want to start essbase without opmn control. startEssbase.bat in the D:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\bin doen't not do anything as opmn link is broke.
Can anyone provide soem suggestion on how I can make Essbase run ias background process without opmn.
I have used option like start /b startEssbase.bat./ but did not work.
Thanks
Srinivas

These work for me
export outline sample.basic all dimensions to xml_file "D:\sample.xml";
export outline sample.basic list dimensions {"Measures"} tree to xml_file "D:\SampleMeasures.xml";
Ran from a client machine and it creates both the files on the local client machine.
Have you tried running on the server, are you using a different version of Maxl from the server?

Problems starting Essbase on Linux

Hello; I installed Essbase 7.1.2 on Linux redhat8, when try to start the essbase server send a message that the libessnetu.so.1 file is not shared; how can I start Essbase? If somebody can help me, please? I cannot start it. Thanks in advance.

what does your arbor's .profile file says...? ARBORPATH, PATH and LIBPATH? Make sure your LIBPATH variable is correctly filled $LIBPATH:$ARBORPATH/bin:$ARBORPATH/odbc/merant42:$ARBORPATH/odbc/merant42/lib:$ARBORPATH/api/ ...
