Web Analysis - database connection

Is it possible to see the data base connection a web analysisdocument is using. I can see the data base it connects to but not the data baseconnection used Web analysis 9.2 thanks

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.

Regarding web analysis database connections

Hi All,
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
point to the new server.
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.
Thanks,
Ram

Hi Manoj,
I have created a DSN but how can i point the report to that DSN and run the same report as of my report running on my old server.
Thanks,

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.

Using Web Analysis to connect to FDM SQL tables

Hi,
I want to know if someone ever use Web Analysis to do reporting ion FDM? Instad of building report in FDM, we I would like to use Web Analysis.

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.

Web dynpro - database connection

Hi all,
i intead to make a web dynpro application which will store the data entered by the user in an oracle database
How am i to obtain webdynpro - oracle connectivity?
points assured for Help

Hi Shobhendra,
The simplest way is to use Visual admin. For that , do the following
1.Run Go.bat in the server to open Visual Admin.
2.Select Cluster->JDBC Connector
3.In Runtime, Create a driver of any name(Say mydriv). Select classes12.jar for that
4.Create a new datasource(Say myDS). There specify the
driver class as oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
database url as jdbc:oracle:thin@IPADDRESS OF ORACLE SERVER:PORT:SID
driver as mydriv
The PORT will usually be 1527 or 1521.
For IPADDRESS, PORT and SID, u have to contact db admin
5. In additional , select Vendor or Native SQL
6. Test the connection using Monitoring tab. If green line is coming, then connection is successful, otherwise, the parametes u used will be incorrect
7.In ur webdynpro code, inorder to get the Connection to oracle, add the following
InitialContext ctx=new InitialContext();
DataSource ds=(DataSource)ctx.lookup("jdbc/myDS");
Connection con=ds.getConnection();
8. Press CTRLSHIFTO

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

Which one is your OS Sun Solaris, IBM AIX , HP- Unix?
LIBPATH is an OS environment variable which need to be set properly. Library path varies according to OS..
like in IBM AIX it is LIBPATH and in Solaris LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
Set LIBPATH, ARBORPATH, PATH os environment variables correctly.
Hope this helps.

Not Possible Create Database Connection to Essbase From Web Analysis Studio

Hello
It is not possible to create a database connection to Essbase cluster from Web Analysis (WA) Studio. The following error message is displayed:
"Unable to retrieve the list of available databases"
And the detail:
[1033] Native: 1003 Error: Create connection failed [For input string:
[ApsServer=, OlapServer=[HOST];]]
Foundation Services, Agent, Financial Reporting and Web Analysis are enabled.
As additional information from EAS can seamlessly connect to Essbase server.
The EPM version is 11.1.2.2
Please help. thanks
regards
Rodrigo

Hi ,
For creating a WebAnalysis database connection, please make sure you do the following :
1. Verify if you have Essbase client installed on the WebAnalysis server.
2. Check if the path of adm drivers are mentioned in the system environment variable -> PATH entries.
3. Try giving the Essbase server name instead of the cluster name when attempting to create a connection.
4. The error 1003 means it doesnt seem to create a connection with the server and while attempting it fails.
Make sure you have all the parameters mentioned correctly in the server details.
To get detailed information on what is causing the problem, make sure you stop the WebAnalysis service and start it from console .

Web Analysis Reports using a Relational Database

I would like to create a Web Analysis report using data from an Oracle database. From Web Analysis, I try to create a new database connection. I select Oracle as the Driver type. In the Database Connection String field, I replace {HOST-NAME} with the Host information from the TNSNAMES.ORA file. I've confirmed the Port number is correct. When I test the connection, it fails. What am I missing? The format of the Database Connection String that is defaulting into the field is:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@{HOST-NAME}:1521:ORCL
Is there anything else I need to include besides the Host name and Port number, for example, do I need to include the SID?
Thanks.

The ojdbc14.jar currently exists in the following directories:
bea\weblogic81\server\lib
oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1
bea\weblogic81\server\ext\jdbc\oracle\920
There is a ojdbc14_g.jar that exists in:
bea\weblogic81\server\ext\jdbc\oracle\10g
bea\weblogic81\server\ext\jdbc\oracle\920
The classes12.jar file exists in:
oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1\oui\jlib
So from your response, I assume I need to copy classes12.jar to a directory under bea\weblogic81?
Thanks.

Connecting to SQLserver 2005 via Web Analysis using a JDBC driver

We are currently working on a web analysis suite and have been trying to create a SQL spreadsheet data object.
After downloading and supposedly installing the sqljdbc.jar driver, we are having problems getting a connection to MS SQL server 2005.
We set the classpath to this driver in the operating system (Windows server 2003) but are unsure exactly how to set this classpath in Tomcat 5.0.28 as recommended by the help file. We have tried editing the catalina.bat and catalina.50.bat in the \Hyperion\common\appServers\Tomcat\5.0.28\bin folder to point to sqljdbc.jar, but to no avail.
So....does anyone have any experience on setting up the JDBC driver for MSSQLServer 2005 and making a connection in Web Analysis. Could you please give a step by step account of how this is done?

Hi,
In the past I have used two methods either updating the registry for the web application or by placing the jar file in the following directory
\Hyperion\deployments\Tomcat5\WebAnalysis\webapps\WebAnalysis\WEB-INF\lib
If you do place it in that directory you will need to restart the web analysis web server.
Then in web analysis studio go to file > new > database connection >Relational
Select Microsoft SQL Server
JDBC Driver
com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
Connection string
jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://<servername>:1433;DatabaseName=<dbname>;SelectMethod=cursor
Enter username/password
There is always the Merant SQL server connection that can be used as well.
Cheers

Can't see databases in Hyperion Workspace or Web Analysis 9.3.1

Hi,
I installed all the components of reporting and analysis (services, ui services, client). I had also installed Shared services, created a user and created an essbase database/application.
However, when I log on to the Workspace, I can't see any databases (including the sample/demo) in the Workspace or Web Analysis and thus am unable to create any reports. In the manual, it says the following:
Log on to Workspace, go to Navigate > Explore and Add Database Connection.
Alternatively, you can do it from the Edit Menu in Web Analysis.
Unfortunately, the first option doesn't seem to exist, while the Edit menu is disabled in Web Analysis.
Can anyone please point me to the right direction?
Thanks a lot!
KM

Start in Shared Services
What have you Provisioned your user with?
Are there Projects Registered with Shared Services? Have you Assigned Users to those Projects?
I would suggest you refer to the Hyperion Security Guide as a starting point

Database Access to Web Analysis Users

Hi,
I am working on a planning application on EPM 11.1.1.3. I have assigned access to users to the Web forms, business rules, dimension members etc. The access is properly applied to all users when they login to the planning application.
However, none of the security filters are applicable to the Web Analysis reports when the same users login with their ID's in Web Analysis.
1. For example, the user can see all members in the 'Entity' dimension drop-down box in the report. What can I do to apply dimension member access to the reports also?
2. Secondly, when a non-admin user opens a web analysis report, it prompts for a username and password to connect to the database. Only when I specify the admin username and password, the user can view the data. If I enter the user's own username and password, no data is displayed on the report. Can anybody guide me as to how I should allow database access to non-admin users.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Sahil

1. While users see all dimension members under Entity, do they see the data for them?
- one way to reduce the amount of members users see is to use Meta-read filters - although meta-read filters cannot be used with write filters.
2. Normally when users open up a WA report, the report defaults to the highest level - so total entity.
- one way to have users see their data is to use User POV - although this requires users to set up their POV per data source under preferences (but only once).
Hope this helps, cheers, Iain

Failed to connect SQL Server from Web Analysis

Hi,
I am not able to connect RDBMS-SQL Server 2000 SP3 from Web Analysis 9.3. I have installed JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000 also. Also defined CLASSPATH environmental variable for MSSQLSERVER.jar file. I am creating JDBC drive as: -
Driver Type: Microsoft SQL Server
Database Connection String:
jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://CNOIA258:1433;DatabaseName=biplus;SelectMethod=cursor
JDBC User: biplus
JDBC: biplus
I am getting error "Getting Connection Failed"
Please suggest any solution to resolve this issue.
Regards.
Atul K

Hi Atul
I think you need to amend the standard strings as follows:
hyperion.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
jdbc:hyperion:sqlserver://CNOIA258:1433;DatabaseName=biplus;SelectMethod=cursor
This has always worked for me, hope this helps

Ramesh,
This looks like it might be a Java class mismatch error. Do you have multiple versions of Java installed on your machine? If so, you may want to keep one version and remove the rest.
If you're already running just one version, you may want to check the registry and classpath for references to multiple Java versions, or version that no longer exist.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.
