Web-TV : Connection number on FMS 4 ?

Hello everybody, i'm here because i'm discovering FMS right now and i'm starting to ask myself question ^^.
I'm thinking about create a Web-TV :
I want to stream video with a playlist playing server/side, and sometimes live video with a camera.
i will not be the developper, i want to hire someone but what about the price.
I'm aiming to have like 50000/100k visitor by month, i'm considering buyin Flash Media Interactive Server Licence, but what type of server i need for this kind of traffic, i'm not a professional, i will hire a agency or someone, but i need information first, to be aware about what its going on.
What range of price should i expected ? FMS is a good choice for this type of web-tv ?
Thank you very much.
PS: I'm really sorry for my bad english.

Flash Media Interactive Server can be a good choice for your task if you are planning to support 50000-100K users permonth. We can safely assume there will be around 3000-4000 users per day (boils down to 3-4 users per minute) visiting on your site. FMIS is capable of supporting much higher than this traffic easily, provided that other factors like your CPU, memory, bandwidth power doesn't exhaust in serving these many number of clients, so you need to make sure that you are using optimum server configuration and fulfilling the bandwitdth requirement from your network to support your users. FMIS supports both live and vod-playlists so there wont be nay problem.
Beside that if you want to keep the bandwidth consumption low at your end, you may like to try the "Enterprise Flavor" of FMS i.e. Flash Media Enterprise Server that supports multicasting.

Web Service Connection Date Input Values Converted to Number

I am using a Web Service Connection that has an input value called 'ModifiedOn' that is a date type. The problem that I have is that instead of sending a date string like '2008-08-04' it sends a number '39665' as the input to the web service method instead. Is there a way to force a date string to be returned instead of the number?
Here is the XML that is being sent to the web service method from Xcelsius:

Hi Aaron,
You may want to try formatting the cell of "ModifiedOn" to a TEXT format instead of date to get yyyy/mm/dd formatting to appear.
It seems that Xcelsius automatically converts any type of date-specific formatting (as specified from Excel) to a date serial, which is what you are seeing here.
Hope that works.

Hi,
I recommend you use ExBPA to check the health of your Exchange server.
Is there any issue about message traffic?
Please check if there is any related events in the application log.

Dynamic columns on output values for a Web Service connection

Hello,
I'm trying to create a web service connection that is similar in response to the XML data connection in that i don't want to fix the number of columns per row down in the WSDL. i.e. i want to create an array of columns:
<xsd:complexType name="XLRowDef">
 <xsd:sequence>
 <xsd:element name="column" curashared:shortname="c" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
 </xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
and for the user of the WSDL (the guy who will design the dashboard) to be able to fix and link the number of columns when he designs the dashboard. I was hoping the button would reveal itself in the "output values" box much like it does in the "input values" but no matter how i twist the xsd - no joy. I also tried just linking the column element to multiple excel columns but still fixes to the first column in the range. Can this result be achieved in Xcelsius short of using an XML data connection?
Regards,
Gilbert

Van,
There is a workaround for that...
Example:
My Webservice accepts input data range in a specific format with " :" symbol, i.e. 072008:082008
Now what i do is
A1 = 072008
A2 = 082008
A3 = CONCATENATE(A1,":",A2)
so A3 = 072008:082008
Now i map the input value in web service to cell A3
P.S have 2 input box components and map it to cells A1 and A2, i.e you are giving users an option to enter the range of values...then web service will capture the range and refreshes data with the range of values user entered.
hope this helps..

Web Service Connection in Xcelsius 2008

I have recently upgraded from 4.5 to Xcelsius 2008 and am having trouble getting the Web Service Connections set up correctly for my QaaWS.
I have 7 LiveOffice connections in a model that seem to all refresh on load fine and i have already set up a Web Service Connection that picks up the drill through path of what the user has clicked on and used them as input parameters to a QaaWS query.
I now need to add another Web Service Connection for another QaaWS and i get the following error message;
"Unable to Load URL"
I have checked the available QaaWS services using dswsbobje/qaawsservices and the 2 queries appear as i would expect.
I have checked the dsws.properties file and the user name and password are correct (which i would expect as teh 1st connections works in the Xcelsius model.
I have restarted the Tomcat server and CMS and this does not cure the problem.
I have even tried re-installing QaaWS.
I have installed SP1 fix 1 for 2008. I am currently using XIR2 SP2.
Can anyone help as sometimes this functionality works and sometimes it does not. The 2 queries i want to use point aty teh ssame database and BO Universe.

Hi Anthony,
You might check that type of the licence type of the user QaaWSPrincipal. I had a problem where the QaaWSPrincipal user was Concurrent Access License while my server was Named User only. Switching to Named User resolved the problem.
However, I am not sure that this is your issue as the you have one QaaWAS url working. YOu might want to check your URL is available
try
http://<name of server>:<Tomcat port number>/dswsbobje/qaawsservices
This contains a list of all URLs. Finally, you might look at importing the wsdl into other applications to see if the issue is Xcelsius or QaaWS related. You can copy to MS Office InfoPath with steps described below.

Web Service Connection on fresh SUM formula is zero

I am using Xcelsius SP1. I have a field in the spreadsheet that has the formula "=SUM(H12:H16)". I am using a Web Service Connection to refresh the data. Following a refresh from the web service connection the field with the SUM formula is 0. I have discovered that ff the values in SUM range (in my case H12:H16) are identical to the refrehsed data then the formulas results willl be 0. If one of the sum values is different from the original values then the sum formula works. Is this a bug? Is there a work around?

I had a problem with the data format after getting number-values from my web-service, because every number-value I got was not a number - it was a string.
so I had to convert all the data in Excel from string to number values. after that everything works fine for me.
you could try that out....

Maximum no of Web service connections in xcelsius?

Hi,
How many maximum webservice connections can we have for a single xcelsius dashboard for different BW queries? I am using xcelsius enterprise 2008. Build number is 12,3,0,670.
Thanks in advance,
Shreesh.

Hello Shreesh,
I do not think there is any actual limitation on Xcelsius on the number of web service connections you can define.
You should rather consider performance & scalability, as under HTTP 1.1 there is at most two concurrent HTTP requests to be handled at the same time. Besides, this total number of web service connections should be scaled to the total number of concurrent users you expect playing with the dashboard vs. the performance of the application server(s) from which those web services will be deployed...
Hope that helps,
David.

What is an "active connection" to the FMS server?

Hi,
I am wondering exactly what are considered "active connections" to an FMS server?
Is it only the RTMP/RTMFP NetConnections, or do NetStreams also count?
Thanks

Only netConnections. You can't connect a netstream without a netconnection so they don't count on the connection count number.

Using Encrypted Web Service connections within Xcelsius 2008 SP1 - FP3

Hi all,
I'm running the latest version of Xcelsius Server 2008 and have setup a simplistic dashboard that uses 4 web service connections to dynamically call queries within a SQL Server 2008 database. The dashboard has been exported to html and I can serve this to the WWW.
I have since created a new https website (using a self signed certificate) and can now serve my Xcelsius dashboard via https. My problem is that I have had to run my old website in parallel (as it serves the said non-encrypted web service) which is linked within the swf source (that is running on the new https enabled website).
Upon trying to alter my existing xlf file so that it references the encrypted web service URL (which works fine via the browser) it prompts me to accept the self signed certificate. Once I click yes, and then add the certificate to the certificate store the whole thing locks up and I am forced to close Xcelsius.
Am I right in thinking that Xcelsius will not accept self signed certificates or encrypted web services at all? For me this is big security concern because if I want to share my dashboard via the WWW I have to accept the fact that I need to run an unsecure web service.
Is this something that is only supported in Xcelsius Enterprise?
TIA

Hello Paul,
Sorry not to have replied to this sooner.
We have had experience of hosting Xcelsius Dashboards using Https: for one of our clients here at Flynet.
We noticed a number of issues , we did have problems relating to the Firewall on our Gateway server for example. We also had issues with the number of active connections processed when the dashboard is running. I think the default for Https: is 2 , so the connections can be queued up. Have you retried with one connection open. The Dashboard we did however did have up to 12 connections, so Xcelsius can handle multiple connections.
When developing the Dashboards using Xcelsius I did have to import using the Web Service URL of the remote server which was Https: However due to issues sometimes with our Gateway Firewall and the way our Local Network had to access the https: URL , what I tended to do was develop using a localhost Web service and then switch the URL to use the https: Web Service once the dashboard was exported to the server it was to be hosted on.
What we did notice for example is that we could have a dashboard running locally quite happily using the https: web services which are actually on [http://www.flynetviewer.com] then we would start getting #2 type flash errors. To solve this we had to restart our Windows Firewall on our gateway server. We could run the dashboard fine if run from our web site.
I am not sure if the issues you have are related to this. I have had problems when I had to import the https: web service URL on my local machine , I am prompted for the Username password for the Https: location , but when trying to import Xcelsius has a problem and exits. Due to these problems I tended to use a local Web service when developing. I know this isn't always practical.
I was running on Vista 64 bit , but I also have XP and Server 2003 running on Virtual machines.
I will be happy to share information my experiences with you.
Best Regards,
Ian Learmonth
Flynet
Updated to add: I have just successfully imported an https: Web service. Mapped it to the dashboard , run it and invoked sucessfully. This was on Windows XP professional SP2.
I did the same thing on Windows Vista 64 bit and had an issue. So not sure what operating system you are using or whether it's a Certificate thing. I can try and find out a bit more on our Certificate if you need to find out what the issue is.
The Vista issue seems to have been resolved by running Xcelsius as Administrator.
When successfully importing I was prompted for the Username and Password for the URL but not the Certificate.

 <a href=http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/5281/oldsysport.jpg> (Old System) (two ports) </a>

 <a href=http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/6941/newsysinfo.jpg> (New System) </a>
 
 My question is, Why in "Old System" the parameter "Created By" is "pcd_service"? is automatic?
because the paremeter "Created by" is the user j2ee admin , I created the system manually or Should the user create pcd_service?

"Unable to load URL" - SQL Server 2005 DB Web Service Connection

Hi ,
I am using XCelsius version 5.0.0.99 to create dashboards connecting to SQL Server 2005.
Find below the details of the steps -
1. Created a web service within SQL Server 2005 database.
2. Copied the WSDL URL.
3. In XCelsius 2008 -> Data Manager -> Web Service Connection, pasted the URL in the WSDL URL input box and clicked "Import" to import the methods. At this point I am getting "Unable to load URL" .
Am I missing any step ?
Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.
Note : I have tested the web service by using it in a ASP.Net project and works fine.
Thanks
Chitra

Hi,
Error :unable to Load URL occurs" because Crystal xcelsius only support single schema web service created from Query as a web service and Flynet tool available in xcelsius 2008.
The reason:
All the web service create from Sql 2005 ,PHP script produced multiple scehma web service and crystal xcelsius only support single schema web service which can be created from Query as a web service or Flynet.
Please revert in case of any queries.

WEB AS connection failed

Hi,
i have logon method in User management as SAPLOGON (since we have same userids in Portal as well as in BW systems) and issued the necessary parameters for WEB AS connection as :
WAS Description BW Development
WAS Host Name IP address:8000
WAS Path /sap/bw/bex
WAS Protocol http
Also gave the all necessary values in connector property.
Now if i go to Display - > Connection Test and select the following :
SAP Web AS Connection
Connection Test for Connectors
it is giving the following result:
Results
SAP Web AS Connection - Jan 1, 1970 7:27:40 PM
Test Details:
The test consists of the following steps:
1. Check that the system object defines an SAP system
2. Validate the following parameters: wap.WAS.protocol; wap.WAS.hostname
3. Check the HTTP/S connection to the defined backend application
Results
1. The system object represents an SAP system.
2. The following parameters are valid: wap.WAS.protocol (http) ; wap.WAS.hostname (ip address:8000)
3. HTTP/S connection failed. Make sure the protocol, host name, and user mapping are correctly defined.
Test Connection with Connector - Jan 1, 1970 7:27:40 PM
Test Details:
The test consists of the following steps:
1. Retrieve the default alias of the system
2. Check the connection to the backend application using the connector defined in this system object
Results
Retrieval of default alias successful
Connection successful
Even though we dont want to do user mapping (we have similar userids in both ends as mentioned early), i went ahead and did that also, but still WEB AS is failing with above mentioned error.
Is there any specific patch level need to be there for BASIS or J2EE etc... we have BW 3.5(web as 640- ABAP System), EP 6.0 Patch 9.
Thanks

Hi ,
I have had this problem before . Even though you still got a failure while the connection test , actually whrn you use the system object it works .Pls chaeck all the your parameter are right before you use this object .
Thanks

Mapping input values for a web service connection to a range of cells

I've created a web service connection in Xcelsius data manager. My web service requires an array of integer as input parameter. How do I map input values for a web service connection to read from a range of cells in the spreadsheet, e.g. $A$2:$A$20, in similar way of mapping output values to write to a range of cells in the spreadsheet?
For output values of the web service, I can specify to map the output values to write to a range of cells. However, it doesn't seem to work for reading the input values.
I can map input values for each node to a single cell, e.g. $A$2, in the spreadsheet. However, when I set the "Read From" field to a range of cells, e.g. $A$2:$A$20, it only reads in the first value in the range.
Is there any way that we can do this mapping for input values as we do for output values?
Your assistance is very much appreciated.
Regards,
Van

Van,
There is a workaround for that...
Example:
My Webservice accepts input data range in a specific format with " :" symbol, i.e. 072008:082008
Now what i do is
A1 = 072008
A2 = 082008
A3 = CONCATENATE(A1,":",A2)
so A3 = 072008:082008
Now i map the input value in web service to cell A3
P.S have 2 input box components and map it to cells A1 and A2, i.e you are giving users an option to enter the range of values...then web service will capture the range and refreshes data with the range of values user entered.
hope this helps..

Difference beetween QAASW and Web Service Connections

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to install a connection between Xcelsius and a QaaWS I created, but it doesn't work. In the list of the different connections available in the Xcelsius Connections Manager, the "QaaWS" connections doesn't appear. Instead of that I can choose the "Web Service Connections" type.
Do you think this little difference can't be the source of my big problem?
If not, do any of you would like to risk an explanation about this odd pheanomenom (which seems to belongs to the category of the surnatural things thats happens when I even try to undertake a slight complex task in my Business Objects environnment)
In advance , thanks a lot ( why "in advance"? Because I feel, I'll get an answer, as an old bohemian woman who's suddenly poped in my office today told me one you would light the darkness of my interrogations)
Bye bye !!

Hi Meryll,
As you have already noticed, invoking a QaaWS URL into the standard Web Service Connection will NOT fire, regardless if everything is configured correctly.
I would assume that this is by design due to the fact that QaaWS Web Services are fetching data out of a BOE server. As such, anything that has to do with BOE connectivity (LiveOffice, QaaWS, Open/Save/Import/Export to Enterprise) is only available in the Xcelsius 2008 Engage Enterprise edition.
Thanks.
