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.

Presentation Variable in obiee 11g

Hi all ,
I had a dashboard report with year , quarter , month and order type name as prompts .
Now my client requirement is , when order type name is "Ord" , the reports with order type name starting with 'ORD" should be displayed.
In simple i know we will use " Like" operator .
But now my problem is we have to assign a presentation variable for order type name.
So can some one tell me how to add a presentation variable in OBIEE 11g , i tried in web , but none of it helped me to finish the job ,, since i am very new to obiee can some one please explain me in non technical language
Thank you for your help

Hi Jay , Thank you very much for reply , now i got a little idea , but few doubts abt ur reply .
Yes i will edit dashboard prompt and assign a like operator and will save the prompt , but when editing the report , you said to apply a filter *LIKE @{presentation_variable}{default_value}%*
In the above what will be in place of presentation_variable and what should be in default_value.
I have tried it in this way : Like @{Sales Order Lines Order Type Name} , where Sales Order Lines Order Type Name is my dashboard prompt .
but it didn't worked when i have given 'Ord' in dashboard prompt the error says: Sales Order Lines Order Type Name is LIKE (pattern match) ord

Error in starting BI services of OBIEE 11g

Hi,
while starting the BI services for OBIEE 11g. After entering the the user name and password for weblogic server. Iam getting as wls.alive. It is not proceeding and the process stops. The obiee page is not opening.

Hi sateesh,
Seems your database listerner and opmnctl is down....first start these in your services pane and then try starting your BI server....but keep in mind close the admin tool if it is open .
This might also help [http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/start_11g]

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.

Unable to start presentation services in obiee 10g

Hi,
Everythig is fine untill I restart the machine. I havent done any changes before restarting my mahcine. Once restarted the presenttion services are not starting.
Error: "Windows could not start BI Presentation server on local computer.For more information,review the system event log.if this is non-microsoft service,contact the service vendor, and refer to service specific error code-1".
I have checked instanceconfig.xml and catalog folders, paths, rpd etc.. But no use.
sawlog file give me the error:
Allocation of SQLEnvironment failed (SQLError: -1). Please ensure that the odbc driver is in your environment path.
How to resove it..
Thanks.

Need few checks from your side:
1) Start BI Server and open RPD line mode, if you able to open then check instanceconfig file to make sure the tag is
<DSN>AnalyticsWeb</DSN> is matching with ODBC dsn for 'Oracle BI Server'
If this looks good then
2) use different name for tag CatalogPath from instanceconfig file and start the Presentation service
let us know updates
Make sure you have this in path Drive:\OracleBI\server\Bin

2.Started the UA.bat.
Select the operation:Upgrade Oracle BI RPD and Web Catalog.
Step by Step,and the upgrade completed successfully.
3.Open the RPD online using the Admintool succefully.
4.But when I Login the BI and view the dashboard with the 10g's user (Administrator),the page appear the error "*Unable to Sign In . An invalid User Name or Password was entered.* "
5.Then I Try to Regenerating User GUIDs
1. Update the FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS parameter in NQSConfig.INI:
a. Open NQSConfig.INI for editing at:
b. ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/OracleBIServerComponent/coreapplication_obisn
c. Locate the FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS parameter and set it to YES, as follows:
d. FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = YES;
e. Save and close the file.
2. Update the Catalog element in instanceconfig.xml:
a. Open instanceconfig.xml for editing at:
b. ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent/
c. coreapplication_obipsn
d. Locate the Catalog element and update it as follows:
e. <Catalog>
f. <UpgradeAndExit>false</UpgradeAndExit>
g. <UpdateAccountGUIDs>UpdateAndExit</UpdateAccountGUIDs>
h. </Catalog>
i. Save and close the file.
3. Restart the Oracle Business Intelligence system components using opmnctl:
4. cd ORACLE_HOME/admin/instancen/bin
5. ./opmnctl stopall
6. ./opmnctl startall
7. Set the FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS parameter in NQSConfig.INI back to NO.
Important: You must perform this step to ensure that your system is secure.

10. cd ORACLE_HOME/admin/instancen/bin
11. ./opmnctl stopall
12. ./opmnctl startall
BUT THE ERROR ALSO EXISTING!
So,waiting for the help,thanks!

Hi,
if your using oracle db please make sure your db settings and tnsnames.oRA settings
also try you please try below troubleshooting steps:
1) please check latest error message and find the root cause,
presentation catalog log path:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\sawlog0.txt file
also check it nqserver.log file
oracle bi server log path ref:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1\nqserver.log
2)can you try to login RPD,EM and console by using your weblogic a/c then try to login with some other user.
if its not working then try to delete that users from catlog and check it Check OPMN services are running state.
e.x:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl startall
opmnctl startall: starting opmn and all managed processes...
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl status
Processes in Instance: instance1
--------------------------------------------------------------+---------
ias-component | process-type | pid | status
--------------------------------------------------------------+---------
coreapplication_obiccs1 | OracleBIClusterCo~ | 4992 | Alive
coreapplication_obisch1 | OracleBIScheduler~ | 2420 | Alive
coreapplication_obijh1 | OracleBIJavaHostC~ | 1856 | Alive
coreapplication_obips1 | OracleBIPresentat~ | 5684 | Alive
coreapplication_obis1 | OracleBIServerCom~ | 5232 | Alive
3) Refresh GUIDs and Restart WebLogic and OPMN Services then try it again...still if your getting same issues then try to
check DB(try to login and confirm) and check it RPD --> physical layer connection pool setting and try to
view physical data.
also paste it your latest error log message (nqserver.log and sawlog01.log message) here
THanks

Error while creating Bi presentation service in obiee(11.1.1.3)

Hi,
Im using Jdeveloper(11.1.1.5) and OBIEE(11.1.1.3)
I created a ADF application in Jdev and when I try to create a BI presentation services I'm getting the following error message.
*Connection attempt failed.*
*java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to retrieve logon token. This version requires a BI build that implements the version 7 SOAP interface. Please verify that you are using the correct BI version.*
does the creation of presentation service in jdev(11.1.15) work only with OBIEE(11.1.1.5) and not OBIEE(11.1.1.3).
please help!
Thanks,
Venky

Venky,
The SOAP interface released with OBIEE 11.1.1.3 is version 6 (v6) as you can see from its WSDL URL.
This would leave one only to believe that the SOAP interface released with OBIEE 11.1.1.5 is version 7.

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.

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.
