Starting Essbase server in Solaris:OpticException:starting opmn server

We have installed Hyperion 11.1.2.1 server on Solaris machine.
When we are trying to start Essbase server on this machine we are getting the below error in the starter logs
OpticException : Error in starting opmn server
Can some one show light on this.
Regards
Mahesh Balla

Hello Srinivas sir..
:) Good to hear from you..
Yeah I have started OHS also..
we were getting this year newly on many servers..
we started services individually and also using start.sh
But nothing was working

RPD file upgrade from 10g to 11g error: Error in starting opmn server

Dear All,
We have to upgrade an RPD repository file and the catalog from 10 g to 11 g. We use the Oracle Fussion Middleware Upgrade Assistant tool.
BI Service (BI server version: 11.1.1.6).
The operation failed, and we got the following error message:
[2013-09-06T12:03:51.117+02:00] [BIEE] [ERROR] [upgrade.BIEE] oracle.as.management.opmn.optic.OpticException: Error in starting opmn server[[ Operation aborted because of a system call failure or internal error at oracle.as.management.opmn.optic.OpmnAdmin.executeCommand(OpmnAdmin.java:310) at oracle.as.management.opmn.optic.OpmnAdmin.startOpmnServer(OpmnAdmin.java:87) at oracle.ias.upgrade.config.oraclebi.OPMNUtil.startOpmn(OPMNUtil.java:46) at oracle.ias.upgrade.config.oraclebi.OracleBIConfigUpgrade.doUpgrade(OracleBIConfigUpgrade.java:118) at oracle.ias.upgrade.UpgradeSupport.doUpgrade(UpgradeSupport.java:1823) at oracle.ias.upgrade.gui.UAUpgradeThread.run(UAUpgradeThread.java:503)It is curious because the core applications are running (I performed the command "./opmnctl start" successfully) and I can open and use the services like WebLogic Administration Consol, Enterprise Manager, BI Enterprise Edition (Analytics) , BI Publisher etc.
But if I open the enterprise manager the core applications under the tab Fusion Middleware are marked with red (not running)
See screen shot regarding the overview:
http://s24.postimg.org/vdg0o83fp/enterprise_manager.png
If I click on the Core application link the core appilcations are marked with green (they are running).
See screen shot regarding the Core Applications:
http://s10.postimg.org/ogba45ke1/core_app.png
Problem:
the core applications are displayed as down in Enterprise Manager.
I restarted the core applications in the Enterprise Manager successfully but under the tab Fussion Middleware they are still displayed as not running.
Does anybody ever had a problem like this. Thank you!
Regards, Robert

ok, since installing multiple versions of oracle is a common practice, I will do both on same machine and try them out.

Error in starting opmn server

Hello,
Note: I posted this thread on the Identity Management forum as well. I wanted to post it here too, as I think my problem may be a more generic Application Server one, instead of one specific to Identity Management. If this is improper etiquette, I apologize.
I have a VM, which is being administered by VMware Lab Manager. The VM is running RHEL 5.1, and has an Oracle 11g database installed.
I am in the process of trying to install and configure Oracle Internet Directory 11g. To do this, I ran the Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Oracle Identity Management Installer. I selected the "Install Software - Do Not Configure" installation type, and chose to "Configure without a Domain" in order to avoid having to install and administer a WebLogic domain. I set "/data1/u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.1" as the Oracle Middleware Home, and "Oracle_IDM1" as the Oracle Home Directory. (To simplify things below, let ORACLE_IDM_HOME refer to the /data1/u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.1/Oracle_IDM1" directory... understand that no environment variable exists with this name though.) The installation routine ran successfully.
But, I ran into a problem while trying to configure the Oracle Identity Management 11g components. I ran the Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 1 Configuration Wizard (ORACLE_IDM_HOME/bin/config.sh). Here are some of the key configuration values that I entered:
- Oracle Instance Location: /data1/u01/config/oracle/as_admin/asinst_1
- Oracle Instance Name: asinst_1
- Select Domain: Configure without a Domain
- Configure Components: Oracle Internet Directory
- Configure Ports: Auto Port Configuration
- Specify Schema Database: Create Schema
After entering my configuration values and hitting the Configure button, the configuration process started running. Shortly thereafter, under Bootstrap Domain Configuration, "Failed" appeared next to the "Create ASInstance" line, with the following error listed:
{code}
Error creating ASInstance asinst_1
Cause: An internal operation has failed: Error in starting opmn server
Operation aborted because of a system call failure or internal error
{code}
In case it would be helpful, here is the output from the error log for the Oracle Identity Management 11g Configuration Wizard:
{code}
oracle.as.provisioning.util.ConfigException:
Error creating ASInstance asinst_1.
Cause:
An internal operation has failed: Error in starting opmn server

As expected, the server failed to start. But, I checked the opmn.out file (in the ORACLE_INSTANCE/diagnostics/logs/OPMN/opmn directory), and found the following error repeated several times:
{code}
OPMN worker process exited with status 8b. Restarting.
OPMN worker process exited with status 8b. Restarting.
OPMN worker process terminated with signal 11 7 times in 10 seconds -- aborting!

Does anyone know what this error means? I am at a loss as to what to do at this point, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

For what it's worth.... I ran into the same thing on a Linux 64 bit Oracle Enterprise Linux box I had set up. I was just able to resolve the issue after many failed attempts.
According to the log the instance is actually created successfully, but when opmnctl startall command is called immediately afterwards that's when the badness happens, and it just associates the opmnctl start failure to the ASInstance creation. So I decided to call opmnctl startall from the command line immediately after the failure. At that point SELinux started notifying me that a bunch of lib*.so files that opmnctl needed were being blocked when it was called. I went ahead and disabled the entire SELinux functionality and it worked after that!
To turn off SELinux edit /etc/selinux/config file. Edit the following line:
SELINUX=disabled
Then restart linux, and rerun the OBIEE config again.
Good Luck, hope that helps someone

h1. UPDATE:
I just needed internet access to download the sysstat and compat-db packages, once installed I disconnected from the internet and re-run the installation, once again, it went fine without problems and opmn and OID are up and running. Also, I enabled the firewall which was disabled during the first installation.
Here is the list of packages needed as pre-requisites:
gcc-4.1.0-28.4, gcc-c++-4.1.0-28-4, setarch-1.6-1, libstdc++-4.1.0, libstdc++-devel-4.1.0, compat-libstdc++-2.96, control-center-2.8.0, glibc-common-2.3.4-2.9, binutils-2.16.91, make-3.80 on top of sysstat-5.0.5-1 and compat-db-4.1.25-9.
There are 3 configuration files for opmn: instance.properties, opmn.xml and ports.prop..... and for OID: component-logs.xml
h2. instance.properties:
#These properties are generally used as default values for arguments not specified on the command line. When an argument is provided on the command line, the corresponding property is overwritten in this file.

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

Solaris 10 x86 - SMC server not starting

Same problem as here :
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/solarisx86/message/12180
No solution yet ...
SMC server doesn't start at boot, and won't start manually with /etc/init.d/init.wbem start
starting it manually gives :
# export VIPER_HOME=/usr/sadm/lib/smc
# ./smcwbemserver -p 898 start
Starting Solaris Management Console server version 2.1.0.
endpoint created: :898
Solaris Management Console server exiting: internal initialization failed: Initialization failed for service com.sun.management.viper.services.Authorization.
Any idea?
I have a basic Solaris 10 setup, with Entire Collection selected.
My graphic card is not working so I had to install in text mode and access X remotely.

I believe this is a fault in the crypto file that is mentioned in the Yahoo X86 posting, namely pkcs11_kernel.so. I have a possible workaround for this. Try looking at:
http://www.webmin.com
This is a free Web-based management tool that has most but not all of the functionality of the SMC. I tried downloading and installing the Solaris package from their download page, but this didn't work. What I eventually did was remove the package and download and install the generic Unix version, which was webmin-1.160.tar.gz as of when I downloaded it. The only gotchas to watch for are to run the setup.sh script and select Sun Solaris as the O/S, then select Solaris 9 as the version (they don't technically support 10 yet). I have been able to add users and groups and manage the disk without problems.

Details from opmn.log (C:\Oracle\Middleware\asinst_FR\diagnostics\logs\OPMN\opmn), where "asinst_FR" is my instance name
strange thing is that it is trying to bind with an ip 216.34.131.135, where as my ip is 172.30.2.245

Stopping Pointbase server...
Pointbase server stopped.

I believe this is the error you get when you try to start up a JVM with the commandline option '-native'.
Remove this flag from your startup script and retry.
By the way, it may be that you have the environment variable 'JAVA_OPTIONS' set to '-native' in which case:
(first confirm this is the case)
$ echo $JAVA_OPTIONS
-native
(Then edit the startup script if you get the result above)
add in a line:
# To remove '-native' flag
unset JAVA_OPTIONS
and retry.
I have to confess I don't know what the '-native' flag is actually supposed to do, but my JVM also reports back that this is unsupported.

Unable to start Essbase Studio Server

Hi All,
Am getting an error message when I start Essbase studio. The installation and configuration went without any errors. I have downloaded the jdbc driver for mysql, renamed it and placed it in the correct location. Yet when I start the studio server I get the error message described below. I have also attached the contents of the server.properties. Do let me know if you guys have any suggestions.

You could try :-
1. Execute the script “catalog_schema_drop.sql” under $HYPERION_HOME\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\server\database\common\MSSQLServer to drop the existing Catalog tables
2. Bring up the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio and login as sa
a.Expand the Databases node
b.Expand the “epmesbStudio” under the Database node
c.Expand the “Security” node
d.Right click on “Schemas” under the database “epmesbStudio” to bring up the “Schema” dialog:
e.From the Schema dialog, enter ”epmEsbStudio” for both Schema name and Schema owner, then click OK to create the schema.
f. Verify that the schema “epmEsbStudio” is created:
3. Expand the Users node under Security: (you should see the user “epmEsbStudio” listed under Users)
a. Bring up the user Properties for “epmEsbStudio” by right click on “epmEsbStudio” then select Properties
b. From the user Properties dialog, you can see the Default schema is dbo. Change the default schema to “epmEsbStudio”, which is the schema that we create in the above steps by click on the list button to bring up the Select Schema dialog:
c. Click on the Brows button from the Select Schema dialog, and select “epmEsbStudio” from the list and click OK
d.The selected schema should place in the Select Schema dialog. Click OK on the Select Schema dialog:
e. Now the schema “epmEsbStudio” should appeared as Default schema on the user Properties dialog.
f. Now make sure the Database role membership “db_owner” is selected (select this option if it is not already select).
g. Click OK to save the settings
4. Bring up the Query editor from the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio by click on the “New Query” and make sure the
5.Disconnect the query editor to any database by right click on the query editor select Connection To Disconnect
6.Connect the query editor to the database epmEsbStudio by right click on the query editor select Connection To Connect to bring up the Connection to Database Engine dialog
7. From the Connection to Database Engine dialog provide the SQL Server name, Authentication type, and enter “epmEsbStudio” as the user name and provide the password for this user, then click on the Options button, then select the Connection Properties tab and enter “epmesbStudio” for Connection to database. Click on the Connect button (you should be able to connected without any error or warnings)
8. Type the following statement in the query editor, and execute it. The query should be executed without any problem.
Create table Test (
col1 varchar(5)
go
9. Verify the table is created under the “epmEsbStudio” Schema:
10.Delete the table “Test”
11.Start the Essbase Studio Server
The properties file should read
Example in server.properties
catalog.db=epmesbStudio.epmEsbStudio
catalog.username=epmesbStudio
You can change "epmEsbStudio" to match your database being used for studio

Starting Essbase Server

Dear all,
I finished Foundation Services, Essbase and Planning installation and started the applications using start.bat|sh. When I run the EPM System Diagnostic, i had the following error messages:
FAILED EAS: Essbase Server Validating Essbase Server connection to DC-HypT01
Error: Cannot connect to olap service. Cannot connect to Essbase Server. Error:Essbase Error(1054067): Internal error
Recommended Action: Check Essbase Server is started.
FAILED ESS: Essbase Studio Server Validating Essbase Studio Server connection
Error: Network communication with the server failed. Check your network connection and try again.
Recommended Action: Start application
I started Essbase Server and Studio manually, But i still got the same error.
What could be the reason?
Many thanks in advance,

Yes, the Oracle Process Manager is not started. thanks.
I tried the command you said, it looks better, but still with the next error message:
Essbase global application does not exist at Shared Services
And I check the Shared Service, there is no detail below EssbaseCluster_1, simply it is lost. Should I reconfigure Essbase so that essbase can be registerred on the shared service?
Edited by: user2571802 on Apr 28, 2010 8:01 AM
I have reconfigured, but when I didn't see the step that let me to register on HSS, I am trying to reinstall the Essbase.

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.

I would really appreciate if some can help me troubleshoot this.

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?

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.

HBR Configuration has not been initialized. Make sure you have logged in sucessfully and there are no exceptions in the HBR log file.
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
.... 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 ?
