WAS inlcusion in FrontEnd BI 4.0

Hi,
I would like to ask a question about the BI 4.0 sizing documentation - WAS inclusion in the total FrontEnd SAPS for BI applications.
From the BI 4.0 sizing PowerPoint presentation u2013 it says that the WAS is included in the FrontEnd unless stated otherwise in the guides.
Than inside the Companion guide for all BI applications (OLAP analysis, WebI, Cystal, etc.) it says "The Web/App Server SAPS rating is the same as the SAP BusinessObjects machine SAPS rating". Does it mean that the WAS is not included in the sizing? Meaning that in case the sizing documentation recommends FrontEnd tier to be M size = 8440 SAPS, based on the statement above do I have to add another 8440 SAPS only for the WAS? - seems to be quite high.
It is a bit confusing but crucial for proper sizing.
Thanks!
Erik.

Hi all,
SAP has recommended to use the quicksizer tool for BI 4.0 to verify/asses the requirements on the application tier. It is now available for BI 4.0 as well. Closing the thread.
Erik.

PROBLEM WITH LOGO PRINTING IN REVERSE DIRECTION

HI,
When Ever I take the print out of the checks, The company logo is getting printed in reverse direction, but if i look at the print preview , it is showing up correctly. even if i take the print out of just the logo from SE78, the logo is getting printed out in reverse direction...I think it is the problem with the printer settings, but i m not sure. Can any one please help me out with this issue,
Regards,
Raghu

Hi,
Are you trying to get this print directly from the backend or some frondend application triggers your form? As I also faced same problem many a times but then observed that when smartform was triggered from frontend, logo was always in its right position.

Printing binary data in PDF format

HI all,
Any idea on how to print Binary content in a PDF format
I have read a PDF format from application server in a Binary format, I need to print the binary content on a printer in PDF format
Any help on this is appreciated <REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Thanks

Hi papick,
this may be easier than expected for a million dollar erp system:
You need a PDF printer.
When I played around with adobe interactive forms our basis guys created a new printer in SPAD with
Device Attributes
Device Type PDF1
Device Class Stabdard Printer
location PDF-Frontend printer = Standard printer for workstation
Access Method
Host Spool Access Method FF
Host printer PDF
Then need some expremimenting with Functions
RSPO_OUTPUT_DEVICEDATA Spool Output Control of an Internal Table with Formatted Data
or something alike (see function group SPOD)
Then you should be able to create an entry in spooler (SP01) with spool request type adobe pdf document.
Sorry, I don't have this problem, thus I did not check out the details yet.
But I'm convinced it should work that way because the ADS server creates a complete PDF binary and it can be printed using the above described printer - actually a HP Laserjet V was configured as frontend printer and it can print the pdf.

JTable binding using JPA

Hi,
I'm having a database table containing blob column that contains image for each row. Also I'm having a JTable in front end to display existing records of database using Toplink(JPA).
My requirement is as follows
1) code snippet to bind & persist the image into database column which was selected from frontend (I'm displaying the image on jlabel using filechooser).
2) retrieving the saved image on a JLabel when ever I select a row in front end JTable.
I hope you understood my intend.
looking forward for your response.
Regards,
Chandu

Hi Chandu,
If you are using JDeveloper for generating the bindings for model persist and binding code will be generated by JDeveloper.
TopLink/JPA wizard will identify the type of column and generate Entities.When you create a SessionEJB and generate datacontrol,persist operation will bind the input data(in this case image) to a table column.

What are SAP products?

Dear all
i am new in SAP and research about SAP products in university .
so i want to know what are sap products exactly.
i heard many names as products of SAP AG but i don't know
the diffrences.for instance i read ABAP ,SAP GUI,NETWEAVER
SAP business one,my SAP business suite,what are the use of this products.what should someone do to establish a complete system of sap.deos it need to have database?
to explain more i know that ORACLE CORPORATION have 4 major products:
1. DATABASE Server
2. APPLICATION Server
3. Developer Suite
4. Application e-business suite 11i
so plz write for me what are SAP AG products and thier use

There are a lot of SAP products, I wouldn't name them all, but I will give the basics.
1) Web Application Server, ABAP and/or JAVA. This is the basis for SAP applications.
2) SAP R/3 or SAP ERP. These are the applications in which most companies have installed. These applications run the day to day business functions. They run on the ABAP side of the WAS. The frontend end that the user uses to interact with the system is the SAPgui.
3) There are many other systems which compliment your R/3 implementation such as CRM, SRM, APO, etc.
4) Enterprise Portal, is an application which runs on the Java side of the WAS, this is a web based frontend which integrates SAP applications and non-SAP applications into one central place where the user can access all kinds of data.
There are many other products in SAP, these are just the major ones.
SAP supports many databases, such as Oracle, SQL, DB2.

Architecture of (auto) migrated apps

Hi all,
I would really appreciate if I can get some answers from successfully migrated Forte->Java apps. I'm specifically looking for apps that ended up with Web based frontend i.e. JSP/Servlet/JSF or the like.
1. Are there any automated tools that converts to Web based frontends?
2. Even if not automatically converted i.e. done by hand, what was the eventual frontend architecture?
Regards.
Anton.

Nope. THey should move to Provider hosted app.

New inst: HP-UX: db2icrt fails: CLP frontend unable to get request handle

We are migrating our installations from the beautiful AIX to ... HP-UX. I am told I will learn to love it, but probably not until they update df to at least 1988 levels.
This is the pilot install. We have never seen this work before (and maybe no-one has...?)
sapinst runs correctly up to the "Create database instance" phase. At that point it dies with the following:
FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, command line process, clp_start_bp, probe:3
MESSAGE : CLP frontend unable to get REQUEST handle
DATA #1: Hexdump etc.
DBI1281E: The database manager configuration file could not be read initialized.
No further useful information is provided.
In db2<sid> I have a bunch of dot files (.profile and the like) and the db2_software directory containing the database installation.
During the create database instance phase, I can see that directory sqllib is created, but it is deleted when the phase fails.
There is no litter of any kind in the /db2/<SID> directories, - nothing has been done at all.
I have done the following: <<imagine nice bullets below - they dont seem to be available here>>
checked that the permissions on /tmp and the installation direcctory (redirected by setenv TEMP /usr/sap/install) are 777: they are;
checked the OS parameters with db2osconf - they are good
checked the host name resolution with a perl script - gethostbyname and gethostbyaddr agree.
the ip address, simple hostname and FQDN are on a line in the hosts file
there is no litter from previous installations - this is a clean machine
I could not find any reference to required environment variables (such as LD_LIBRARY_PATH) in the install guide or the install note - so I have not set any.
I have been hacking away at this for days. I have put in a call to SAP, who will get back to me after dark (of course...)
This seems to be a massively popular problem, and the helpful error message ("Sorry, Sport, just can't bring myself to do it") seems to have people jumping from tall buildings and in front of busses all over Google-world. Furthermore there also seems to be a near-infinite number of possible causes and none of them seem to apply here.
H-PUX version is 11.31. DB2 is 9V5 patch 4. sapinst is latest available. Weekend is fading fast...

No need to apologise for assisting, Paul, but I have dealt with most of these.
The host file contains the unqualified and fully qualified hostnames, on the same line, unqualified first.
I am logging in as root (because there were no other users, and I'm old school, from when everyone logged on as root to do everything.
There is no instance, and in fact there is no sqllib except when the "create database instance" step is running.
The only detectable db2 process running is db2fcmd
I have not been able to find any instructions regarding LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LIBPATH for HP-UX. They are not mentioned in the installation guide at all. I cannot find it in any of the installation notes. I presume sapinst is setting them itself before they are needed. Neither are set in the enviroment of db2<sid> or <sid>adm. I have gnawed my fingernails to the elbow over this one, but I cannot see any indication that either should be set for HP-UX. Anyway, they are definitely not set anywhere, to anything. This was a clean machine before I started chopping it up to do this install.
I figure it must be complicated - I have been trying to get an answer for 10 days already. I will absolutely hate myself when it turns out to be something obvious, documented in 10 places, mostly in bold italics. I shoulda taken my dads advice and been a riverboat gambler or a piano player in a cathouse - its a lot less complicated,

JCO-Java application unable to open a Frontend GUI session

Hello,

I am having a problem opening a GUI session on a client PC through the JCo java call. It works on some PC's when I am logged in, but not on my PC. But other persons who login on my PC do not have a problem with the application opening a GUI session. I am at a loss. I have had a basis consultant look into this and he could not find a reason for the problem. I have submitted a customer message to SAP and am being told to file this issue in the forum, so here it is. If this is the wrong forum, please let me know which forum would be the correct one.


Problem:
For test purposes, I have created a Java application using the SAP standalone SAPJCO3 vers. 3.0.1. The R/3 backend is 4.6C. The SAPGui version is 7.1 patch level 13 installed on a Windows XP Pro client PC. The application is supposed to start a Frontend GUI session as part of the initial process. This is not working on all PCu2019s for all users. The following are scenarios for two different users on two different PCu2019s, logged on and executing the Java application. The parameters for the Java application are: User, Password, and System Id in this order on the command line after the Java applicationu2019s name. The system Id in our example is PRP in uppercase. This problem happens while connecting to any of our R/3 instances.


Testing of the issue:
Scenario 1:
User gmcghie: This user is the primary user of his/her PC. This PC has not had its registry entries cleaned up for a long time. Starting the Java application from the Windows command line with the supplied parameters, the program is executed and makes the initial connection with the R/3 backend. When the R/3 system sends back a request to start the GUI session, the SAP Logon is executed and opens on the PC. Nothing seems to happen after this.

Here is the JCO exception from the log file:
JCoException eDest: (136)com.sap.conn.jco.JCoException: (136) JCO_ERROR_ILLEGAL_STATE: Launching SAP GUI failed, though it was requested (error message: Communication with SAPGUI timed out)


When you right click on the SAP Logon icon that is in the Windows System Tray on the PC you see an entry that shows a session for Client 000. This is the wrong client being called by the application. The client being called is 600 in this particular scenario.


Here is the connection string sent to backend for scenario 1:
TYPE=A DEST=PRP USER="gmcghie" PASSWD=********** CLIENT=600 LANG=E ASHOST=10.212.120.53 SYSNR=00 TRACE=1 PCS=1 USE_SAPGUI=2


Scenario 2:
User mshin: This user is the primary user of his/her PC. This PC has had the OS re-installed on it within the last few years, hence the registry is likely more clean. Starting the Java application from the Windows command line with the supplied parameters, the program is executed and makes the initial connection with the R/3 backend. When the R/3 system sends back a request to start the GUI session, the SAP Logon is executed and opens on the PC. The connection is made to Client 600 and the process ends. The screens that appear above for the other scenario are not present when the connection is successful. The log file is not included for this as it was empty because it succeeded.


Here is the connection string sent to backend for scenario 2:
TYPE=A DEST=PRP USER="mshin" PASSWD=********** CLIENT=600 LANG=E ASHOST=10.212.120.53 SYSNR=00 TRACE=1 PCS=1 USE_SAPGUI=2

I have the same issue on my PC as the first scenario.
The steps I took to try to get this to work are as follows.
1. Un-installed and re-installed the SAPGui, several times with no change.
2. Compared the registry settings of SAPGui between working and non-working PCu2019s. These were essentially the same.
3. Compared the system variables between working and non-working PCu2019s. These were essentially the same.
It should also be noted that if user u2018gmcghieu2019 from scenario #1 logs into another PC, the program executes correctly (for most other PCs but not all). Finally, if user u2018mshinu2019 from scenario #2 (certain other users as well) logs into Windows on the primary PC for user u2018gmcghieu2019 from scenario #1, and user u2018gmcghieu2019 is used to connect to SAP using the Java program, the program executes correctly. It seems that this would indicate some problem with the useru2019s Windows account on certain PCs.
Why is the connection information being dropped? How is the process of opening the SAPGui on the frontend done?
Any help with this issue is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark Shirkey

Created Customer Message and got answer. There were settings in Windows Registry for starting the SAP Logon Launch Pad which had to have a value of 1.

SAP HANA Privileges for Frontend Tools

Hello,
I am pretty new to HANA and having problems to access my created views from Frontend Tools like Design Studio or Lumira.
I have created several tables and on top created an Analytic View. Tables and views are in the same schema, but I assigned the view to a package. If I want to access the view via Design Studio there are no views or packages shown.
My User has the following privileges and roles:
Roles:
CONTENT_ADMIN
USER
MODELING
MONITORING
PUBLIC
Object Privileges:
_SYS_REPO
REPOSITORY_REST (SYS)
Analytical Privileges:
_SYS_BI_CP_ALL
Package Privileges:
package to which the View was assigned
If I want to Data Preview myView I get an error: inssuficient privileges.
Has anybody an Idea? Is there an tutorial for granting privileges for reporting purpose? The Admin Guide is very general and I thought by using the standrad roles are sufficient for my sceanrio.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Waldemar

So as the trace is saying did you give "Grant" option? And hence you are able to preview the data in HANA. It means:
1) You are able to see the package from "myUser"
2) You were able to do data preview from HANA on the analytic view
Right?
If it is "myUser" who created the tables, then i don't think you need to grant again.
I was mentioning you to grant SYS_BI (SELECT) ,_SYS (SELECT) to "myUser"
And after all this your issue currently is "myUser" cant see the views in Design studio? Could you confirm that you are logging into Design studio using "myUser"?

BPC 10.0 Input Schedule refresh : investigating performance issues on frontend side

Hello,
We are running SAP BPC NW 10.0 SPS8.
We recieve a lot of complaints regarding performance issues.
More specifically BPC Input Schedule refresh takes ages (11 minutes actually)
I am a SAP Basis Administartor with some solid BW experience, but very linited BPC knowledge.
So raf we have tried the following :
* BPC Full and light ptmimize of the BPC Cubes.
* Updating Oracle Statistics
* Activating ABAP/SQL traces*
* Checking USJTAT Logs
Then it rutned out that the perfromance problems werre not caused by the backend SAP BW server (only 9 seconds of bakend processing are displayed in UJSTAT).
The overwhelming majority of the processing is spent on the frontend side : on the computer of the user.
We really would like to know what is happening on BPC Frontend side, but are really lacking any investigative method .....
other that checking memory/CPU usage o nthe frontend computer.
From your experience, is there any tool/method to allow to conduct some investigation on what is going on the frontend side, when a BPC Input Schedule is refreshed ?
Thank you for your attention.

Hello Vadim,
We still need to get confirmation from the external consultants who developed the BPC solution, but as far as I can understand it :
We do not use use member formulas
We are indeed talking about EPM (without EPMRetrieveData functions)
The perfromance problems occur in DEV and QAS , after a restore of the BPC environment (backup from PRD)
We already had the problem in the past, but we never knew precisely how to solve it, it is as if there was some missing links between the restored BPC environment from PRD and the DEV/QAS system
One additional information, we checked the EPM CLient Log , and here are the errors displayed while refreshing the input schedule :
The thing is that I have no idea what it means ...

530 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated - Exchange 2013 to external domains

Hi all,
I have an Exchange server 2013 on windows 2012 R2 and do all the configuration for sending and receiving the mail according to the document provided by Microsoft.
But whenever I am trying to send mails from external domains to my exchange server domain I got the following error:
530 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated
Same thing I am getting If I am sending mail through outlook from my Exchange domains to external domain.
But if I am selecting the
<label for="ResultPanePlaceHolder_ReceiveConnector_Security_contentContainer_chkPermissionGroupAnonymousUsers" id="ResultPanePlaceHolder_ReceiveConnector_Security_contentContainer_chkPermissionGroupAnonymousUsers_label">Anonymous
users in the security option of Default Frontend XXXX, I am able to send the mails through outlook.</label>
<label for="ResultPanePlaceHolder_ReceiveConnector_Security_contentContainer_chkPermissionGroupAnonymousUsers" id="ResultPanePlaceHolder_ReceiveConnector_Security_contentContainer_chkPermissionGroupAnonymousUsers_label">But I don't
want to use this option as it will enable to send the mails without validating the Exchange server user name and password.</label>
SO can anyone please suggest some solutions to resolve this as using Anonymous users fro sending and receiving mails is not secure.
Regards
Pankaj Raman.
<label for="ResultPanePlaceHolder_ReceiveConnector_Security_contentContainer_chkPermissionGroupAnonymousUsers" id="ResultPanePlaceHolder_ReceiveConnector_Security_contentContainer_chkPermissionGroupAnonymousUsers_label">
</label>

I have a java code for sending mails using the SMTP address of the servers. For sending a mail it required a valid user name and password. For all other SMTP servers if I have used invalid user name and password then I am getting the 530
5.7.1 Client was not authenticated error, but
if I am using my SMTP address and invalid user name and password then also I am able to send the mails.
So I just want to know what I have to configure in the exchange 2013 server so that it will validate the user name and password.
Regards
Pankaj Raman.
Hi Pankaj,
Thank you for your question.
Was invalid user name and password included in Java code?
Did outlook send emails?
If this issue happen on Java code instead of outlook?
In fact, Exchange server didn’t validate user account and password, user account and password will be validated on domain controller,
I suggest we create a new dedicated receive connector and enable “anonymous” permission for java code
If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.
Best Regard,
Jim

BPM Worklist Problem After Setting Frontend Host and Port

Hi all,
I was following the EDG for SOA 11.1.1.5 and was encountering a problem with the BPM Worklist after setting the Frontend Host and Port. We have a topology that includes a load balancer that terminates SSL, two OHS instances, and two SOA instances on separate VMs. When BPM Worklist was loading, it was calling webservices internally through the load balancer, but WebLogic was expecting them as http://. It was not able to resolve the HTTPS port that was being sent from the load balancer through the 80 to 443 redirect.
What the current EDG does not tell you, is that you have to also turn on "Enable Weblogic Plug-In" for WebLogic to use the OHS plug-in. I did it at the domain level, as all traffic will go through the load balancer. This essentially tells WebLogic that all URLs are https://
Here is an exerpt from the SOA.out log file:
<Sep 8, 2011 9:32:06 PM PDT> <Error> <oracle.soa.services.workflow.worklist> <BEA-000000> <<.> Service error.
Internal Error; Service error occurs in IdentityService in method lookupUser.
Refer to the log file that is configured for oracle.soa.services.identity for more details on this error and contact Oracle Support Services
ORABPEL-10585
Service error.
Internal Error; Service error occurs in IdentityService in method lookupUser.
Refer to the log file that is configured for oracle.soa.services.identity for more details on this error and contact Oracle Support Services
Caused By: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: oracle.j2ee.ws.saaj.ContentTypeException: Not a valid SOAP Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
What it is also missing, is that you should also set the SOA Infrastructure ServerURL mbean for the load balancer, to match the frontend host and port. Do this through Fusion Middleware Contol. Otherwise, you could encounter URL mismatches.
I hope this helps someone else.
I've asked Oracle to add this to the EDG for SOA. It's in the IDM guide, but not in any other EDGs.

Thanks Josh. It helped me infact in 11.1.1.4 Enable Weblogic Plug-In is not required. But 11.1.1.5 I thing it is mandatory. Oracle should have a clear documentaion.

MOD_WL - Apache 2 frontend stuck when one of Weblogic Servers stuck

We are using an Apache 2 Web Server as a frontend of our Weblogic Server 10.3.2 installations,
using mod_wl configured as follow:
<Location "/csi">
WebLogicHost jerico.procergs.reders
WebLogicPort 8012
SetHandler weblogic-handler
ErrorPage http://www.consultasintegradas.rs.gov.br/FalhaConexao.html
</Location>
The Weblogic Server is using a default workmanager.
When Weblogic Server gets overload by "stuck threads", "out of memory", "connection pool out of
resources" or similar reasons, the Apache Web server always get stuck with many slots in WAIT
state. This stops acess to all Weblogic Servers installations, until restart the Weblogic server
which was stuck.
Is there another way to configure Apache as a Weblogic frontend without Apache stuck toguether
with any Weblogic under it ?
There are timeout parameter to be configured in mod_wl not to stuck Apache when Weblogic stuck ?
Thanks in advance
Mauro do Valle

Hi,
The best way to get rid of your issue is by try to do the following stuff:
- Use more WLS servers which are in cluster in different boxes. (i.e. This would help you to load-balancing and fail-over your request )
- Use "*WebLogicCluster*" instead of "WebLogicHost" as you have to give the host-names of the servers which are in the cluster
- By default "*Idempotent*" is ON and this is used for fail-over after *300* seconds as that's the default value for "*WLIOTimeoutSecs*" (i.e. if an response is not been sent by one WLS server for any-reason, then the response would be sent to the second server. ) This way if any one of the server has gone down for some reason and was not able to send the repose then second server would server the requests.
Following is the example:
<Location "/csi">
WebLogicCluster MS1HostName:7003,MS2HostName:7005
SetHandler weblogic-handler

Yaourt: pacman frontend

Homepage: http://archlinux.fr/yaourt-en/
yaourt is a pacman frontend whith a lot of features like:
- AUR support (search, easy install, vote etc..)
- interactiv search + install (with AUR Unsupported results integrated)
- building packages directly from ABS cvs sources
- search output colorised (skinable) + always show the repository where a package came from
- handling config files .pacnew/.pacsave
- managing alpm database backup (save, restore, query database directly on backup file)
- alert user when new orphans are detected and check the database integrity with testdb after each operation
- downloading PKGBUILD directly from ABS cvs or AUR Unsupported
- statistics on installed packages
Yaourt can be run as a non-privileged user (safest for AUR unsupported packages).
Root password will be required only when it is necessary.
USAGE: yaourt [OPTION...] <parameter>
example:
$ yaourt [regexp] : search for matching strings (with *) and allows to install it
$ yaourt -S [packagename]: download package from repository, and fallback on AUR
$ yaourt -S [list file] : download all packages stored in the first column of the given file
$ yaourt -Ss [regexp] : search remote repositories and AUR for matching strings
$ yaourt -Syu --aur : upgrade system + packages from aur
$ yaourt -Sybu --aur : upgrade by building PKGBUILD + packages from aur
$ yaourt -Syu --devel : upgrade all cvs/svn/mercurial packages (from aur)
OPTIONS:
yaourt's options are the same as pacman, so check the pacman man page for more info
yaourt adds/enhances options marked with '*'
General:
(-h, --help) give this help list
(-V, --version) give program version
--noconfirm do not ask for any confirmation
--tmp /where/you/want use given directory for temporary files
--lightbg change colors for terminal with light background
--nocolor don't use any color
--textonly good for scripting yaourt's output
--stats display various statistics of installed pacakges
Install:
(-S, --sync) <package> * download package from repository, and fallback on aur
(-S, --sync) <file> * download all packages listed on the first column of the file
(-S, --sync) -b * builds the targets from source
(-S, --sync) -c, --clean remove old packages from cache directory (use -cc for all)
(-S, --sync) -d, --nodeps skip dependency checks
(-S, --sync) -f, --force force install, overwrite conflicting files
(-S, --sync) -g, --groups view all members of a package group
(-S, --sync) -i, --info * view package (or PKGBUILD from AUR) information
(-S, --sync) -l, --list * list all packages belonging to the specified repository
(-S, --sync) -p, --print-uris print out download URIs for each package to be installed
(-S, --sync) --export <destdir> * export packages for local repository
(-S, --sync) --ignore <pkg> skip some package
(-U, --upgrade) <file.pkg.tar.gz> upgrade a package from <file.pkg.tar.gz>
(<no option>) <file.pkg.tar.gz> * upgrade a package from <file.pkg.tar.gz>
(-G, --getpkgbuild) <pkg> * Retrieve PKGBUILD and local sources for package name
--asdeps Install packages non-explicitly to be installed as a dependency
Upgrade:
-Su, --sysupgrade upgrade all packages that are out of date
-Su --aur * upgrade all aur packages
-Su --devel * upgrade all cvs/svn/mercurial/git/bazar packages
-Sud, --nodeps skip dependency checks
-Suf, --force force install, overwrite conflicting files
-Su --ignore <pkg> skip some package
-Sy, --refresh download fresh package databases from the server
Note: yaourt always shows new orphans after package update
Downgrade:
-Su --downgrade * reinstall all packages which are marked as "newer than extra or core" in -Su output
(this is specially for users who experience problems with [testing] and want to revert back to current)
Local search:
(-Q, --query) -e, * list all packages explicitly installed
(-Q, --query) -d, * list all packages installed as a dependency for another package
(-Q, --query) -t * list all packages unrequired by any other package
-Qdt * list missed packages installed as dependecies but not required
-Qet * list top level packages explicitly installed
(-Q, --query) -g, --groups view all members of a package group
(-Q, --query) -i, --info view package information (use -ii for more)
(-Q, --query) -l, --list list the contents of the queried package
(-Q, --query) -o <string> * search for package that owns <file> or <command>
(-Q, --query) -p, --file will query the package file [package] instead of db
(-Q, --query) -s, --search * search locally-installed packages for matching strings
(-Q) --backupfile <file> * query a database previously saved in a tar.bz2 file (with yaourt --backup)
Example: you want to reinstall archlinux with the same packages as your backup pacman-2008-02-22_10h12.tar.bz2
just run yaourt -Qet --backupfile pacman-2008-02-22_10h12.tar.bz2 > TopLevelPackages.txt
To reinstall later, just run yaourt -S TopLevelPackages.txt
Remote search:
(-S, --sync) -s [string] * search remote repositories and AUR for matching strings
<no option> [string] * search for matching strings + allows to install (interactiv)
-Sq --depends <pkg> * list all packages which depends on <pkg>
-Sq --conflicts <pkg> * list all packages which conflicts with <pkg>
-Sq --provides <pkg> * list all packages which provides <pkg>
Clean:
(-C, --clean) * manage, show diff .pacsave/.pacnew files
(-C, --clean) -c * delete all .pacsave/.pacnew files
(-C, --clean) -d, --database * clean database (show obsolete repositories)
(-S, --sync) -c remove old packages from cache
(-S, --sync) -c -c remove all packages from cache
(-R, --remove) <package> remove packages
(-R, --remove) -c, --cascade remove packages and all packages that depend on them
(-R, --remove) -d, --nodeps skip dependency checks
(-R, --remove) -k, --dbonly only remove database entry, do not remove files
(-R, --remove) -n, --nosave remove configuration files as well
(-R, --remove) -s, --recursive remove dependencies also (that won't break packages)
Note: yaourt always shows new orphans after package removal
Backup:
(-B, --backup) [directory] * backup pacman database in given directory
(-B, --backup) <file.tar.bz2> * restore a previous backup of the pacman database
Runing yaourt as a non-privileged user requiers some entries in sudoers file:
- pacman (remove package + refresh database + install AUR's package)
- pacdiffviewer (manage pacsave/pacnew files)
Download yaourt:
AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … =1&ID=5863
or
[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/i686
[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/x86_64

Indeed, I was always running it with sudo, I thought it's the way it's meant to be. I just realized I can run yaourt without sudo and yaourt will ask for password when there's a need. Nice!
BTW. I found another bug. When I run yaourt -Syu I get:
cromo@kromka:~$ yaourt -Syu

Thing is about what happens after the "To manually upgrade use 'pacman -S <pkg>'"part.
