There really aren't restrictions on the method you expose as a web service. You can make JDBC calls into a database or call an EJB, etc.

  • Error while connecting to external SQL table using BCS identity in SharePoint 2010

    Hi all,
    I am working on SharePoint Foundation 2010. I have a stand alone setup. Now I am trying to connect to a SQL table in another server. I have used SharePoint Designer to connect using BCS. I have selected "BCS Identity" for authenticating with SQL
    in the external content type. then I created a list with this external content type.
    I get the following error upon opening the external list.
    Login failed for user 'INYKGW\sp_farm'.
    I am confused. how do I solve this error.
    any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi letShare ,
    Whether the  account 'INYKGW\sp_farm' is current user account or a service managed account?
    Could you  please  provide detail error message of ULS log  to determine the exact cause of the error.
    For SharePoint 2010, by default, ULS log is at      
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS
    Also please have a look at  the blog :

  • Web Analysis Essbase connection

    Hi all,
    I have an already created Web Analysis Essbase connection and I want to change the Essbase server for the connection. If I go to Workspace->Explore, then Tools->Manage Database Connections, I can only see the Reporting connections in order to edit them. How do I edit the properties of Web Analysis connections?
    Thank you!

    You can edit them through WA studio, depends on where you saved the db connections, usually in the databases folder, right click the connection and edit.
    Cheers

    Try exporting the Web Analyzer document then open the file in a text editor. It's basically a text document. Then do a search for connection files you maybe using.

  • Problem connecting to external SQL table using BCS in SharePoint Foundation 2010

    Hi all,
    I am working on SharePoint Foundation 2010. I have a requirement wherein I need to connect to SQL in some other server.
    I used BCS to create external content type and then I created an external list. now when I try to view the list on browser it says "Login failed for the user NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGIN".
    I am using "User's Identity" for authentication with SQL.
    How can solve this issue. Please help.
    any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    That sounds like you might not be using Kerberos and/or your Kerberos authentication isn't working to pass your credentials.
    As you may know there's a limitation with NTLM permissions that prevents something known as the 'double hop'. This is where a server (SharePoint for example) tries to request things on your behalf. With NTLM you can't do this at all, the alternative is to
    use Kerberos which can handle double hops. One thing to know about Kerberos, if it's not completely set up right then IIS and SharePoint will almost always revert to NTLM so it's easy to think you've enabled it only to discover it's failing and you're really
    using NTLM.
    This guide will take you through setting up Kerberos in painful detail, it's great:

    I have couple of web analysis reports and the issue is i have copied this web analysis server to another server
    where i have the same application. Now iam trying to append those database connection properties of the file to

    I have altered by selecting the user>database>select database>rightclick>edit>changed properties
    But when i open the report it popping out with my old server details.
    Does any one have idea about how to change database properties for a report.

  • Reporting using web analysis

    Steps to transfer data from done on Hyperion planning Application to web analysis .

    Hi,
    No need to transfer data to Web analysis. The dashboards or the charts in Web Analysis
    are directly connected to Essbase for reporting.
    Thanks,

  • Bypass the error messages while opening the Web Analysis 9.3.1 Report

    I am using WA 9.3.1 to create a few reports. The login users will have some essbase meta-read security filters to restrict the access into certain regions and entities.
    For example:
    user a has the meta-read and read access of @idescendants (east);
    user b has the meta-read and read access of @idescendants (west);
    user c has all the accesses
    However, in the first start-up page (Web Analysis 9.3.1 dashboard), I have a dashboard which contains all the regions access. When user a login, he shall only see his own dashboard (speedometers, etc.).
    Currently the user login will get some error messages (such as "loading document produce error", etc). I wonder whether we can set the message level in Web Analysis so that there is no such error message while the user is opening the reports.
    Thanks

    Karen,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I have checked my Web Analysis report, and I still have the error message of "Error Occur while opening document. Document ID = {0}" while using the some user id to login.
    In my Web Analysis database connection preference, my setting is "user the user id and password". I have verified this (when I use "user a" to login, and in essbase connection, i can see the session with "user a").
    In the WA report, however, I use the multiple-level combo box, so that it can give me different levels of entities, for example, the top level is all regions, the 2nd level is east/west/south/ ec, and the next level is cities, and so on. And if "user a" login, he will be able to see the all regions and east, and then east cities (of course, if he select all regions, there will be no data available).
    Do you think this multiple level combo boxes can be the cause of this error message?
    Thanks a lot

  • Web Analysis is not working

    Hi,
    I recently installed Hyperion BI+ in my server and I'm trying to do some reports in Web Analyzer.
    My installation and configuration went successfull.
    I can open FR, IR ..
    I'm trying to open WorkSpace and Web Analysis...
    both are not working...
    When Im trying to open web analysis using the below URL Im getting error..
    http://<servername>i:19000/WebAnalysis/WebAnalysis.jsp
    but when I'm using this URL http://<Servername>i:16000/WebAnalysis/WebAnalysis.jsp
    I can see the open page.. but the Web Analysis window is not coming.. I'm getting blank page...
    and for workspace also.. when I'm using 45000 port.. it is working but I cannot open any reports.. some debug error is coming..
    when I'm using the default port 19000.. Im getting network error...
    Please help me in this issue..
    Do I need to do any modifications in my configuration or property files....
    my Java application is Tomcat(default).. databases is Oracle 10G Enterprise Edition.

    Hi,
    Regarding Web Analysis- I believe- It's a problem of JRE.
    - Just remove/uninstall the JRE from your Currently installed Programs. You may want to reboot the m/c
    - Open Web Analysis Studio in the Web browser. Now, since it can't find JRE, it'll set up the relevant JRE for you & you may continue using Web Analysis.
    - Please note- Unless you've changed to a different one during configuration, Web Analysis operates on 16000 port.
    Check the following regarding Workspace-
    - Your service may be down, thus, throwing Network error
    - You may've to re-configure Workspace. Start the service & wait for few mins. before opening Workspace.

  • Interactive Reportin vs Web Analysis

    Hi all
    I've a question about Interactive Reporting (IR).
    I know that I can design a report based on Multidimensional DB using Web Analysis (WA), Financial Report (FR), and IR.
    3 ways to get data from same DB. I don't know so well IR, so I ask: According to your experience and knowledge, in which situations you advice to use IR?
    Usually, I rely on Web Analysis, sometimes I use FR when I need particular formatting that I can't do using Web Analysis.
    My client (future, I hope, now it's just a prospect) has many report done with IR, I cannot analyze them. He says they're slow. Any issue related to performance or other things?

    Hi WVanSluys,
    Thanks for the response. Does OBIEE 11g have dashboard capabilities that can build dashboards from multidimensional data source such as Essbase? The reason I ask this question is that we have two different teams working at this client: one for implementing Oracle EBS and the other Oracle Hyperion (I am part of Hyperion team). The next phase of our project involves implementing OBIEE. If I am understanding you right, Web Analysis (or for that matter, Interactive Reporting) is NOT needed if OBIEE is being implemented?
    Hi Iain,
    Thanks for the reply.

  • Few Hyperion Web Analysis questions

    Hi All,
    We are using Web Analysis 11.1.2 and i am a newbie to it. I have few questions regarding reports which may be of very basic level;
    Q1. If we right click on a report then we have an option of "Edit data" through which we can enter data directly into planning. My question is that how can i disable this option for all users as i don't want them to manipulate any data through a report?
    Q2. As we have made a report in which we have used the dimension members that are used in Hyperion planning. The name of member in Hyperion planning for example is ABC and i want to change the name to XYZ in Hyperion Web analysis report. How is that possible?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,

    Q1 depends on the level of provisioning and or useraccess permissions on essbase/olap level.
    Use Shared Services in combination with EAConsole to restrict this.
    Q@. In plain/ native essbase you can add aliases to the member. Normally you do not edit planning members in essbase (since you have to change them in planning it self) But perhaps you can. You can give it a try in a testenvironment.

  • Strange security issue with reports in Web Analysis.

    Hi All,
    I am working on Hyperion System 9.3.1 and Reports are developed using Web Analysis. To develop the reports I followed the following sequence.
    1) Developed the reports with admin rights on Web Analysis reports and Essbase cube.
    2) Create a group with users in Shared services and assign the following roles Analyst, Data Editor,Data Source Publisher,Dynamic viewer,Explorer,Viewer rights in Hyperion System 9 BI+ level and calc access for the database at Analytic Server level.
    3) Create a separate folder in Web Analysis studio and copy the WA reports there(say- reports).
    4) At workspace level, I gave the access on folder and on report.
    Now when I login as one of the member of the group I am unable to see the reports in the folder.
    I can see the reports when I login as an admin.
    Am I misssing anything or the security I gave is insufficient.
    Waiting for your reply.

    can you tell me what inherit permission you gave to make it work.
    I have a folder having a view access only. whenever i make new reports as admin...i cant see my new reports untill i refresh the "apply permission to children" options gain.
    But thats not what i m looking for...i want it come on its own when I create a report.

  • Arabic Language aliases issue in Web Analysis reports

    Hi,
    Make sure that you have the right version of JRE in the system. Please try this steps in one client machine
    1. Uninstall all the version f JREs from a client computer
    2. launch Web Analysis Studio from that client computer
    3. It will prompt you to download & install the compatible JRE from the Web Analysis server into your client computer
    4. Install the JRE
    Hope this helps

  • Error while operating Web analysis report in Workspace

    I have created a web analysis report in which i have provided buttons, on the click event of button it must open a link provided.This button is working fine when opened using Web Analysis studio but on running this report in workspace, when i press the button i get this error "This Service is not supported by the HTML client".
    Please help.

    Have you tried checking the "Design for HTML" from the Edit toolbar to see if you get any error when saving?
    Do you have any advanced items on the report, as there are 4 types of differences between Studio and HTML:
    - font differences, Workspace (DHTML) uses the WA Server fonts whereas WA Studio client machine fonts.
    - Service Buttons are very restricted using Workspace
    - Display: Tab selection, Splitter panels, Slider selection do not render in Workspace
    - Cannot restrict WA Tools menu in Workspace at all, where you can in the Studio.
    For exact details check out the Hyperion Web Analysis Studio User’s Guide from the Doc Library:
