Unable to open the BI Desktop Administrator Setup File

I downloaded the Oracle BI Discoverer Desktop and Discoverer Administrator 11.1.1.3.0 (for Windows)
And unzipped the files in my desktop
But when I click on the setup.exe file the cmd window pops up and closes immediately. I dont see the installation wizard...
Has anybody faced this issue?
Thanks
Ben Thomas

I installed Discoverer 11.1.1.3 on Windows 7 and it works fine.
To install it I had to go into Control Panel - User Accounts and set Change User Account Control Settings to 'Never Notify' then the install ran fine.
Then when running Disco Admin I had
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
To fix this you need to create a Windows environment variable TNS_ADMIN that points to the directory where the correct Tnsnames.ora file is held.
On my system, I went to 'Computer - System Properties - Advanced - Environment Variables", created an environment variable TNS_ADMIN and set its value to C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\network\ADMIN
Check where your server or other tnsnames file is stored and set the corresponding value.
Then it all worked perfectly.

  • Unable to open the downloaded patch's zip file

    i have downloaded the oracle 9i lite 5.0.2.10 patch from oracle metalink.
    But i m not able to open/extract the downloaded zip file.
    When i double click the downloaded file to open or try to extract it i get the message "Cannot open file: it does not seem to be valid archive. If you have downloaded this file then try to download the file again".
    Then i also went to the unzip utilities page of oracle , but was not able to select the appropriate platform.
    Can anybody help me out
    thanks

    Hiral,
    I just downloaded/opened the patch from Metalink and it seems to work fine. The utilities page includes unzipping programs for other platforms. All you need for Win2000 is winzip. Have you either tried to redownload the patch again or verify your winzip is functioning?

  • One more solution for Silent Monitoring Windows 7 64-Bit - ERROR VOIP2037 Unable to open the NIC adapter for sniffing.

    Hi,
    we are using UCCX 8.5 SU3.
    After replacing the actual agent workstations with Windows 7 64-bit we had to face problems with the silent monitoring. (no sound at all and in the CSD the usual error popup "Silent Monitor-Session failed...").
    In the CAD logfile I found the errorcode. "ERROR VOIP2037 Unable to open the NIC adapter for sniffing. Please reconfigure the installation."
    After investigating the logfiles, starting postinstall.exe a hundred times and reading the Configuring and Troubleshooting VoIP Monitoring Guide.
    I just learnt about the wonderful tool nicq.exe.
    And so i found out that the driver spcd.sys wasn't installed.
    Check in the registry for "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\SPCD"
    It seems to me that the "Cisco Supervisor Desktop.msi" never installs the driver one a Windows 7 64-bit.
    After starting the NICQ.EXE as administrator the driver is being installed.
    Test 1: Check Driver Status
    Driver not installed. Attempting to install it...
    Driver has now been successfully installed.
    SPCD Driver service is not running. Attempting to start it...
    SPCD Driver service is now running.
    Test 1: SUCCESS
    And after that the silent monitoring works again like a charm.
    Maybe that info help someone.
    kind regards, sebastian

    Excellent information, this has been driving me crazy for a while now.  Once i saw this info I was able to get it resolved rather quickly.
    +5 for you, (I tried to click it above but it would not let me.)

  • Error message: "Unable to open the physical file" when trying to attach AdventureWorks database

    I have searched the internet and this forum and have not found an answer...
    I am trying to install the AdventureWorks database into my single instance of MS SQL Server Express 2005.  I am logged into my machine as an administrator and logged into SQL Server 2005 express 'sa'.  I attempt to run the following script:
    exec sp_attach_db @dbname = N'AdventureWorks',
    @filename1 = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_Data.mdf',
    @filename2 = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_log.ldf'
    The error message I get back is:
    Msg 5120, Level 16, State 101, Line 1
    Unable to open the physical file "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_Data.mdf". Operating system error 5: "5(Access is denied.)".
    The folder "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data" and all the files in it are read-write.  I am 100.0000% certain the files "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_Data.mdf" and "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_Log.ldf" exist!  They are the result of running the installation program AdventureWorksDB.msi, which I downloaded from: http://www.codeplex.com/MSFTDBProdSamples/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=4004.
    What do I have to do to install the AdventureWorkds database????

    Hello,
    To try to help you, please, could you give some more informations ?
    - the operating system (XP/Vista), the edition ( Pro/Home...) and the service pack
    - usually, the installer installs the both files in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Sql Server\Samples. Is there any change in the location or have you moved the both files ?
    - could you check with the files explorer , that the 2 files are read-write and not read only( find one file, right-click on it, properties and in the 1st tabpage, you should see a checkbox read-only ( if checked , unchecke it ) ?
    - have you Sql Server Management Studio Express Edition ( at least SP1 ) ?
    If no, download it and use it to attach
    in the object explorer,
    click on your instance to expand it
    right click on databases
    in the contextual menu, click on attach
    in the new form,click on add
    you arrive on a second form : find your file , click on it, and OK
    it's the simplest way to attach ( the sp_-attach_db is complicated to type )
    the error messages are sometimes more clear in SSMSEE than in Sqlcmd
    Try also to attach ( thru SSMSEE or Sqlcmd but in using the windows authentification )
    NB: i hope that you are not trying to attach AdventureWorks on a remote instance and on a remote computer ( it would explain access denied )
    We are waiting for your feedback to try to help you more efficiently
    Have a nice day

    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if it frightens you, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select

    I have found out from Adobe technical support that this is a known issue with Office 2010 SP1 installed.
    This is an FYI for anyone else experiencing this issue, remove SP1 and it will work ok.

  • The Remote Desktop administrator software failed to start due to an unexpected error...

    Hi all...
    Suddenly, I'm getting this error message when I try to open ARD. It was working a week ago and I'm not aware of changing anything. Any advice?
    This is the 3.6.1 version of the ARD admin and I have the 3.6.2 Client installed (that was the way it was before, too, when it was working).
    Note: I did try a fix from the forums that was posted in 2009, which required deleting the ARDAgent from the RemoteManagement folder in System/Core Services... and then reinstalling again using the Apple ARD Admin download for same. It worked for one run of the program, then the error came back.
    What do you guys think?

    Hmphf.
    You may have to reinstall the Remote Desktop SW. See if that helps.
    I don't think it's a coincidence that this update "fixed" the Remote Desktop SUID warning, and it also removed the potential update from my computer which I had placed on "Ignore" since I did not need it and did not need the warning, either. So there is a connection between this update and the Remote Desktop SW.

    You can setup Mail for iCloud on the eMac.
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password

    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes

    We are using XenApp 6.5 with a published desktop Windows 7 x64. If we open Acrobat Pro 10.1.5 and Create PDF we get an error "Unable to open the document". If we do the same action directly on the XenApp server then it works as expected.

    The Remote Desktop Administrator software does not match the installed Client software version.

    This is the message I have when I installed ARD 3.0 on a new Imac running leopard with no ARD installed previously when I opened up ARD for first time - doesn't let me go any further.
    Have I missed something here and made a stupid install mistake??
    Many thanks
    Message was edited by: art_ik

    Please search the discussions before posting as this question has been asked and answered more than once.
    If this is ARD 3.x, try this:
    • Insert your ARD CD
    • Open in Finder
    • Right click on the Remote Desktop.mpkg and show contents
    • Navigate to contents/installers
    • Drag the RemoteDesktopAdmin.pkg file onto the workstation and install
    • Run Software Update
    • Upgrade to 3.1 admin
    Otherwise, you'll have to completely uninstall ARD and then reinstall it. Follow these instructions for the uninstall:

  • Open doc URL: unable to open the report in same window

    Hi
    I'm trying to open a report using open doc url with "swindow=same" but still it opens in a separate window. This happens only when I use JAVA viewer. it works fine in ActiveX and HTML but I want this in JAVA viewer as i'm including this page in my JAVA application and it should open the report in the same window. I tried using "<a>URL</a>" and also target="_self" by HTML interpretation for that object but still the same problem. I'm unable to open the report in the same window by using JAVA viewer for Crystal Reports in info view. Please help me!!!
    Envirorment Details: Crystal Reports 2008 SP3, BOE XI R3 SP3
    regards
    Raghavendra.G

    I have tested that myself and It seems that HTML interpretation does not work with the Java viewer.
    I have also tried using a hyperlink containing javascript
    eg.
    javascript:window.location.href='http://www.sap.com'
    but the java viewer seems always to launch a new window before processing the command.
    I would recommend to open a case by SAP support ( httP://service.sap.com/support )
