OBIEE Presentation Services Service Does not Start

I am unable to start OBIEE Presentation Services ,
i am getting the following error: The Oracle BI Presentation Server service terminated with service-specific error 4294967295 (0xFFFFFFFF).
i tried some of the solutions posted in these forums, Still i am not able to start my OBIEE Presentation Server service. except the presentation services, i am able to start all other OBIEE services.
i have my OBIEE installed on a Windows 2003 Server. i was able to start presentation services before configuring OBIEE Scheduler, but after configuring the OBIEE Scheduler i am not able to start the presentation services.
Please Help me, what should i do ?
Thanks in Advance
Venkatesh.

Hi Venkatesh,
Thanks for the points,
hmmm... it's better once you send me the instanceconfig.xml file to my mail you find in my profile.
if you want you can remove you hostname instead of that you keep any word xxx :)
As per my knowledge you might have added the <SubjectAreaMetadata> tag if not, in 9th step of venkat's blog http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/09/13/oracle-bi-ee-10133-configuring-delivers-ibots/ you might have done wrong...
Check the spelling once again with that and path you are mentioning in this tag also important. Please make sure that you have put this tag before
+</ServerInstance>+
+</WebConfig>+ .....tags
And also try start of presentation server by removing this tag you added in instanceconfig.xml, if it's running then this is the problem...
Thanks & Regards

OBIEE Presentation Services for OBIA rpd gets ODBC SQLEnvironment failed

Hi,
I'm trying to get OBIEE 10.1.3.3.2 services running on applications tier Suse Linux 9 machine for OBIA 7.9.5. I have successfully got OBIEE working on Windows desktop, but need to get the OBIEE Suse server running. I'm running OC4J on the Suse box and its working okay. I copied the EnterpriseBusinessAnalytics.rpd file, setup web/catalog/EnterpriseBusinessAnalytics and NQSServer.INI, plus set ORACLE_HOME and PATH for connectivity to database tier. The directories of the items mentioned below are in PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH prior to attempting starting OBIEE (presentation) services via run-sa.sh and run-saw.sh.
I'm getting error messages as follows in sawlog0.log on startup of OBIEE services:

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

OBIEE 11G - Unable to login to presentation services

Hi All,
I have done a simple installation of OBIEE 11G on my coloud server with OS windows server 2003, SP2 , 32 bit.
Installation is 88% completed with,
Executing : opmnctl start coreapplication_obiccs1 and Executing: opmnctl start coreapplication_obips1 failed. Came to know that this is related to clusters and ignored the error.
RCU is installed in different database server.
Now i am trying to login to presentation services with weblogic as userid and password that i had given during installation of obi.
I am getting error that userid or password is invalid...
One thing i came to know from the thread OBIEE 11g Cluster Controller Failed to start is,
i have a bad IP in /etc/hosts... below are the entries in the file... can anyone please tell me what necessary changes i should do?
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.

OBIEE Presentation Service unable to start by a batch job

We are using OBIEE 10.3.4.1 in clustered environment with two BI servers and two presentation servers. We bounce the all the services on daily basis using windows batch job. Presentation Service on one of the bi presentation servers is failing with the following information in the Windows Event Log (We don't see any specific log in presentation server logs). When we start manually then it starts without any problems. It is happening only in production that's why it is critical. Please advise ASAP.

Thank you,

IMHO you shouldn't be restarting services on a daily basis. The only reason I can think off you will be doing that is to hide away real issues, such as memory leaks or stability issues. We run OBIEE in Linux and we have no need to restart services at all. In some cases the services have been running for several months without failing. We do use the autorestart option which means that the process will restart automatically should it crash, which sometimes happens. Unfortunately this option is not available on Windows, perhaps it is testament on the robustness and the Production readiness of that OS?
I would think your issue is either due to the account you are using to run the scheduled batch job or a timing issue where you need to give the service a few seconds between stop/start to clear all file handles. But still it's very bad practice to do what you do, especially if you are running in cluster mode which should give you HA.

Unable to login to presentation services after doing the upgrade 10g to 11g

Hi All,
I had a running instance of OBIEE 11g 11.1.1.6.0, my 11g rpd and webcatlog was working fine. Imp to note is that, I had configured external LDAP authenticator and wasn't using the weblogic embedded LDAP.
Now, today, I had to updrage 10g RPD and Webcatlog to 11g and merge into the my current 11g system. I ran the upgrade utitlity and it completed the upgrade successfully but now when I try to login into presentation services using the weblogic user, the presentation services gets hung. It doesn't even give me a message like "Invalid login or password" I DON't get any message but my Presentation services and RPD gets hung( when I try to open it online)
Also, I am trying to refresh the GUIDs after making the necessary changes in the config and instanceconfig.xml file i start the obi server and presentation server, it doesn't come up. So I am unable to refresh my GUIDs
What could be issue here? Do I need to fix an credential file? Please let me know.
Thanks,
Ronny

Unable to Sign In -Presentation Services

Hi,
My Presentation services was working fine.But I just deployed a RPD and now I am not able to login into Presentation services.
It is giving the below error.
Unable to Sign In
An invalid User Name or Password was entered.
I have checked the opmnctl status and my presentation services are up.
Please help.

Hi,
Just Referesh GUID and Try again if it's not working follow the below link:
GUID- Refreshing in obiee11g
good one
http://obiee11gqna.blogspot.com/2011/10/obiee11g-updating-guids.html
http://varanasisaichand.blogspot.com/2011/08/refresh-user-guids-obiee-11g.html
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/migration
Reading the Oracle Documentation I see that the refresh of GUIDs need to be done for Presentation services as well. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10543/privileges.htm#CHDHGAAH
if u don't have any problem with GUID then refer the below link try to do the same.

i have already tried below mentioned things but still issue persists,
RESOLUTION:
Connect to WebLogic Server (WLS) Console -> Deployments. Ensure that all deployed components are in ‘Active’ state.
Use the command prompt to verify the opmn status, as the EM console will not always reflect the correct status.
If any of the components is in ‘Prepared’ state, select that application and then click on “start servicing all requests”.
Restart BI Server and Presentation Services
If this does not resolve the issue please follow the steps below:
In some cases, the following additional step might be needed to resolve the issue.
Access the Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware control: http://<host.domain>:port/em
Navigate to Business Intelligence -> coreapplication
‘Capacity Management’ tab -> ‘Scalability’ sub-tab
Click on ‘Lock and Edit Configuration’ button
Enter the IP address in the ‘Listen Address’ field
Click on ‘Activate Changes’ followed by ‘Release Configuration’ buttons.
Restart BI Server and Presentation Services
Please guide.

How to create new user for OBIEE presentation service

Hello Guys
I now only have 2 users on my OBIEE, demo1, demo2.. Now I'd like to create a new user call A and make this new user able to log on to OBIEE presenation service..
So I went to the RPD admin tool and created new user there and gave password. It was done online mode and I checked out..
I am able to login to admin tool with the new user account, but when I go to presentation service, I am not able to see this new user nor would I be able to log on using the new user account..
So how does this work? If I wanted to create a new user and let it access dashboard, I'd I do it
Any pointer will be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Hi.
actually there is no option available in presentation service to create user. There you can just delete user and create and delete the groups.
Anyhow, you said you have created a user in rpd.
To see this user in answers, you must login into answers with this user once.
are you able to login with the newly created user?
(As you said you done the creation of user in online mode, this may not effect to the answers)
if not, just login with administrator into answers, click on reload server metadata, then log off from there.
Now, try to login with the new user. You may able to login.
OR
just restart your BI Server services.

Just in case check loopback configration at the /etc/hosts file must be modified to contain the following entries:
127.0.0.1 hostname.domainname hostname
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
After doing so, you can check that the host name resolves to the loopback IP using command:
/bin/ping hostname.domainname

Custom decimal places in OBIEE Presentation Services

Hello All,
In the OBIEE presentaion services for a column of type number there is an option to override the default data format.
In this option in the decimal places we have a value "up to 6".
Is there any way I can change this to "up to 10" (at the backend) because the user data has 10 places of decimals.
Thanks
Neerupama

Hi,
Specify the decimal places using override option and select save and you will see two options
1) wide default for Table.Column
2) wide default for this data type.
First one will apply this formatting only for this particular column whereas the second one will apply this formatting for all fields having same data type.
