Web Reports hang on DB Authenticate Screen

This does not happen the first time when the reports server is bounced, starts happening only after like 20 - 30 reports are run successfully.
Format of the URL being used http://aifs02:8006/dev60cgi/rwcgi60?server=Rep60_aifs02&report=GB1_RANGE.rdf&paramform=yes&destype=cache&desformat=PDF
Following is the software/hardware specifications :
Oracle DB : 8.0.5
Reports : 6i configured to use WebDB listener on Sun Soloaris E10K.
and its a 3-tier architecture, with Database on one machine, Web server and Reports server on one machine.
Any kind of help highly appreciated. Thank you.

Not sure about settings, but my basic troubleshooting would start with:
1) Comparing DLLs (Crystal and DB client) on a server that has satisfactory performance vs. one that does not. Use the [Modules|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip] utility for that.
2) Use [Process Monitor|http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx] and check where the time is being used up
3) Use an HTTP sniffing utility such as [Charles|http://xk72.com/] or [Fiddler|http://www.fiddlertool.com/fiddler] to see if there are any HTTP issues
I'd do the above in the order given as it goes from easy to not so easy...

  • Passing a parameter to a BW Web Report via a URL

    Hi,
    I have a BW Web Report that has a selection screen that allows a project to be selected.
    I would like to call the report passing the project as a variable, automatically populate the selection screen field and execute the report.
    Is this possible/how could I do this.
    Many Thanks.

    Hello,
    have you checked the HELP page:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bw21c/helpdata/en/3a/3c9d398f38407ee10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
    You have to add the &FILTER_IOBJNM=0COUNTRY (Filter Object: InfoObject for the project and the value &FILTER_VALUE=DE.
    like:

  • Bw web report plugin http session hangs at the server side

    Hi,
    I am having problems when closing the browser of a BW web report. After I closed the browser by going File->close, I ran SM04 and found out the Plugin HTTP session hangs at the server side.
    How can we terminate the Plugin HTTP session at the server side when user closes the internet browser?
    I did implement a logoff function at my web template, if user clicks on the logoff, the Plugin HTTP session is terminated at server side correctly. But As you know, 50% of time user will close the report by closing the internet browser instead of clicking the logoff. That leaves lots of hanging Plugin HTTP sessions at our server side.
    By the way, we actived our BEX service at the SICF.
    Thanks for help!
    JA

    Hi
    If you want to avoid a blank page with logoff button, add opener=0
    <a href="<SAP_BW_URL CMD='LOG_OFF' ~command='logoff'
    >" onClick="javascript:window.close(opener=0);">Log off</a>
    If you want to close the session via X, use this code:
    create a sapscript function
    function closeSession()
    logoff()
    window.unload=CloseSession()
    However, the Plugin HTTP session isn't killed.

  • Adding messages to the Variable entry screen in web report

    I need to add a message or note to the variable selection screen on a web report. I need this message or note to be displayed somewhere on the same screen with the variable list. I found something similar in BW Expert regarding pop-up messages, but this does not work with web templates. Does anyone know of a way to add a static (or dynamic) message to this initial screen of a web report?

    In my clients place, they are ready to do the SAP Mod based on "CL_RSR_WWW_VARIABLE_SCREEN" to have a Alert Message which sort of based on different idea.
    Does anyboay have an idea on where to make the change?
    Thanx

  • How to include text lable in Variable selection screen (Web Reporting)

    Hi Experts,
    I have created one query and in Web Report-->variable selection screen I have one Date field for that field I have to display a label stating that user to input date in the format YYYY.MM(like a text label).Actually I have created 10 to 12 report . I need u r suggestion such that a single change will reflect my requirement in all the reports and I have created all the reports for same multiprovider.
    Thanks in Advance
    Yours,
    Bala

    Bala,
    Prompts can originate from one of two places:  either via Designer and using the @prompt functionality or while creating the report building a prompt in the Query Filters panel.  If the prompt was built using the @prompt method, and all 10-12 reports are using that particular @prompt, then one change via Designer will cause all reports to reflect the new verbiage.  If you built the 10-12 reports using the prompt in the second scenario, then each individual report needs to be opened, modified and then saved.  If you must use the latter method, then you can open the first report, modify the prompt verbiage, then highlight the new verbiage with your mouse and hit Control-C (which copies that text to the Clipboard of your Windows system).  Then go to the second report, locate the verbiage that needs to be changed, delete it, then Control-V (which pastes), and voila, some keyboarding strokes are saved....
    Thanks,

  • Link from BOBJ Webi report to CRM webUI screen

    Hi experts,
    I was wondering, if there's a way to create a link from Webi report (based on CRM data) to webUI content in CRM? For example, Webi report will have opportunity numbers. User will be able to click on the opportunity number and get to webUI screen where he could see opportunity details and maybe even modify it.
    Best regards,
    Vlad

    Hi,
    You can link Webi Document to webUI content in CRM with help of Hyperlink based on particular column then you need to parse the data.
    Once Parse button is clicked, it displays with the parts of the URL parsed into sections depending on parameters specified in OpenDocument URL.
    for more information kindly go through following document.

  • BEx web report selection screen entries retain when closing and opening the report again

    Hello all,
    please help me in the below query.
    Till last month the entries we made in BEx web report selection screen are retained in the selection screen even when we close the web report and open it again from portal without logging off. But recently this functionality is missing and the entries in selection screen are not remembered when we close and open the same report again. It is a good feature for the users. Have you come across this issue?

    No...I think i can reframe the question very clearly......For ex:  we are opening a Bex Web report...so initally we would be prompted by the variable selection screen...in which we have to give the entries(Values) for those variables like Cal month, Sales org, Company code, etc.....Later on the report will get open based on the values we have given......
    Now if we close the particular report without logging off then if i try to open the same report that selected values are missing.....earlier it used to remember the values we have given until we log off....But now that functionality is missing....It was very useful feature.....Can you please tel me what can be done to resolve this??
    I hope the explanation would be clear now.

  • Auto-populating the selection screen parameters for web report

    hello
    i am having a scenario where my web report is a link to another internet application (a BSP application) and it is called by clicking some link or button on the BSP page.
    can i pass the selection values for BW Web report directly from BSP application through a query string or by setting some cookie values so that the user will directly view the report on click of that link?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Rajeev

    we can do this by adding a URL as the query-string with web template_id and with the selection screen parameters as key value pairs

  • Selection Screen on Web Report only show filter area varieables.

    HI ,
    I am using WAD 3.5 and web template uses the query developed in 3.5, This report has two selection variables one in filter area and one in Rows section.
    We recently did the Ehp 1 upgrade and after that it automatically showing only variable selection for character in Filter area. To show all I have to hit "All".
    For Query designer query I was able to change the property in RSRT but for Web report I am not able to change and it is still showing only one selection screen instead of Two .
    Have you faced any such issue. Please can you share your thoghts on how to correct it.
    Best Regards
    Som

    Hi,
    if you are able to see both variables in rsrt we could say that the variable definition are ok ( option: ready for input in variable definition)
    So open the web report on web application designer and in the web template Properties search for "Force Variable Screen display" option and check this option.
    Hope it helps,

  • Removed variable still shows up in the variable screen of a Web report

    Hello,
    I am using a variable screen in a web report. I changed the variable on 0CALMONTH, but I still can see the old one. Two variables now show up. In Bex, only the new one can be seen.
    Does anyone knows the reason for that? I'm using BW 7.0 with the 3.5 reporting functionalities.
    Thanks in advance, Nathalie

    Nathalie,
      i'm sorry, it's not datasource... it's dataprovider
        delete the dataprovider from the the HTML Code...you could see the DataProvider in <Object>... </Object>
    suppose let us assume that you have DataProvider and DataProvider. you are not using DataProvider3, delete from the HTML code.
    delete this block from HTML.
    <object>
             <param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"/>
             <param name="CMD" value="SET_DATA_PROVIDER"/>
             <param name="NAME" value="DATAPROVIDER_3"/>

             DATA_PROVIDER:             DATAPROVIDER_3

    Create a new Web application that will give you correct result.

  • Web Intelligence Hangs When a Report is Cancelled

    Web Intelligence hangs when a report is cancelled.  Has anyone else had this problem and how have you fixed it?  I have googled it and can find fixes for it on previous versions but can't find it on our current version.  We are on SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 2 Version: 14.1.2.1121.

    Hi,
    I still recommend Patch2.x   , also the BICS correction is must-have in long term.
    You need to save the BEx query in Designer with property "Allow external acess to Query"
    Viewer preferences are set in BILaunchPad settings , not CMC
    Java version can have impact - but anything in 1.6.0_x range is fine with IE 7 / 8
    You also need to make sure your APS server (that contains the DSLBridge service) is running.
    You also need to make sure that your user credentials in the BICS logon string have sufficient SAP Authorizations added to your Role, to be able to read the InfoArea nodes as seen in RSA1 in BW.
    You also need to have a compatible BW version: 7.01 (EhP1) SP07 and above. (08 / 09 recommended)

  • BOBJ WEBI XI 3.1 SP 6 Report hangs randomly

    We upgraded the BOBJ XI 3.1 SP3 to SP6. We're now noticing that the WEBI reports are hanging randomly. It doesn't trigger any DIA session in BW backend. It looks like connection issue between BOBJ and BI. If I close the report and refresh it again, it runs fine. It is happening very randomly and there are enough DIA processes available in BW. We're currently on BW 7.0 ENHP1 SP 08.
    Has anyone faced this issue? Is there any way we can perform the connection trace between BOBJ and BW?
    Thanks,
    Milind

    Milind,
    First, SP6 is not an option. Please upgrade to 6.3 or SP7. because it contains several problems with calculation engine and merge dimension.

  • Display Comments in Webi Report

    Hi All,
    We have a requirement, to display comments (2 or 3 paragraph in each page of report).The text needs to preserve the format (bold, bullets and colored text) i.e the format from the source data should be retained when displayed in the webi report.
    Say for example the source is the excel and the text is coloured red or green , some part of the text is bold, all these formats should be preserved in the webi report also.
    Can you please suggest, how to implemet this in webi report?
    Thanks,
    Sudha

    you can take the formatted text in a word document, take a screen shot, put it in mspaint and select the required part. now place this picture in the blank cell's background image. this will preserve the formats of all kinds.
    but u cant change the text dynamically.
    usually we do this to give users an introduction page(tab1 in report followed by report tabs.) describing the application.
