XI31 SP2 Client tools?

Can't find these client tools (XI31 SP2), can;t find anything prior to XI31 SP3 in the software downlaod acrea of the smp...?

Hello,
Click on the Software Downloads and then on the left Support Packages and Patches and then I find it easier if you use the A -Z Index option and then click on E ( for Enterprise ) and then SBOP BI Platform ( former SBOP enterpise ). Then BOBJ Enterprise XI 3.1. And then Comprised Software Component Versions, BOBJ ENTERPRISE XI 3.1., a dn finally Windows Server on IA32 32bit
and you should see SP Client tools...
Good Luck...

BusinessObjects 4.1 Sp2 Client Tool setup Installer will not Start

Hi Everyone
Have installed BOE 4.1 sp2 server platform on a virtual machine running on Windows Server 2008 R2. When I tried to install the Client tools, I execute the setup.exe program, it launches the run, when I click on runs, nothing comes up.
Any suggestion I will really appreciate it.
Thanks

OK. I think I may have misled you. We tried installing BI4.0 on SQL Server 2012 and that didn't work (not supported according to the Supported Platforms documentation). I just looked at the Supported Platforms document for BI4.1 and it shows the Client Tools should be supported on Server 2008, Server 2008 R2 and Server 2012.
I'll try installing them and let you know. We would like to have them on the server also.

How to save user name and password on client tool

Hi,
In our landscape, few users are using webi rich client tool to work offline. They are entering login credentials manually everytime. Is there any way to save the user id and password, so that user can login without manually entering the login credentials everytime. Please find below my system details. Please anyone help is highly appreciated.
System Details:
Server: BOBI 4.1 SP2
Client tool : BOBI 4.1 SP2
Authentication type : Windows AD
Thanking you in anticipation
Obinna.

Hello,
oh yes it is!
The Question is for which Front- Ends?
For the WRC you dont have to do anything as long as the Information under "System" is correct and "Windows AD" is selected under "Authentication. Leave "Username" and "Password" blank.
Just hit "OK" and you are logged in.

Installing Oracle 8i client tools on Windows 2K Advanced Server SP2

I am having issues with installing Oracle 8i client tools on W2K Advanced Server SP2. The CD I have is labeled Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition, Release 3 (8.1.7) Win NT/2000 CSI# 2224188. The error message I get is that a dependency exist on having ORACLE.SWD.JRE 1.1.8.10.0 installed and the universal installer cant find it. The disk has a folder named ORACL.SWD.JRE with a subfolder named 1.1.7.30 which leads me to believe that the version of the file that shipped with this media is version 1.1.7.30.
Questions:
1. Why would Larry ship a CD with the wrong version of a file...just venting.
2. Where do I get the correct version?
3. How do I install it?
Any help would be appreciated.

Oracle8i on PIV
If you have Pentium IV do following: find file symcjit.dll file in the oracle installation folder and rename it to symcjit.old.
try to run setup.exe located in the install/win32 folder.
Oracle9i on W2K
Install service pack 2 or higher
Virtual memory between 800 and 900 MB ( Recommended )
if for any cause setup.exe does not make anything,
try to make click on autorun.exe

Client tools not authenticating via Windows AD after upgrade to SP4

We recently upgraded our test environment to SP4 to correct a problem we were having with Windows AD authentication from InfoView. The upgrade to SP4 and JDK 1.5 solved our InfoView problem, but our client tools (Designer, Desk, Crystal Reports) can no longer login to our test environment using Windows AD authentication.
The error message we get when trying to connect to the SP4 instance using Designer or Deski is as follows:
[repo_proxy 13] SessionFacade::openSessionLogon with user info has failed(Internal error.(hr=#0x80042a01)
Enterprise authentication continues to work as normal. My first thought was that my client tools are at the SP2 level and they are trying to connect to an SP4 instance. Therefore, I need to upgrade the client tools to the SP4 level as well in order to get Windows AD authentication to work. Is this correct, and if so what is the proper way to upgrade the client tools to SP4?
On the SAP download site you can download the SP4 Full install, but when you run it says to uninstall the existing version first which I haven't tried yet. Does the SP4 full install give the option to do a client install versus a server install like previous SP2 install?

While we always recommend matching versions I have rarely seen a problem with client tools and AD using different versions. I think you may have a different issue.
If your clients were installed from a deski/designer ONLY install then you can use a client version of SP4 that is much smaller. There should also be a server version that can be installed on top of deski/designer+ client tools (this should not require an uninstall). Finally there is an integrated build which includes the full XIR2 product with SP4 built in(it sounds like you downloaded this).
If SP4 does not resolve I'd suggest opening a message with support and packet scanning the client with netmon or wireshark.
What's the error you get with crystal using AD? There was a known issue on SP3 client patch that made all clients fail with AD/LDAP.

Tim

XI 3.1 Client Tools and LDAP Authentication

I have Business Objects XI 3.1 SP2 installed. For the web clients (InfoView) single sign on and LDAP authentication are working correctly. However when a user tries to log in using LDAP authentication to one of the client tools (Universe Designer, Webi Rich Client, etc) the error "Cannot access the repository (USR0013)" occurs with the following details:
[repo_proxy 13] SessionFacade::openSessionLogon with user info has failed(Security plugin error: Failed to set parameters on plugin.(hr=#0x80042a01)
Are there troubleshooting or setup guides dealing specifically with LDAP authentication with the various client tools?

Make sure that the File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks component is installed and enabled on your clients.
Take a look at note 1272536 (http://service.sap.com/notes)

Trying to install client tools

I am trying to install BusinessObjects XI 3.1 client tools on my PC, I am using Windows XP (SP2). It gets stuck while registering modules, 'MyInfoView.dll' is where it gets stuck. This is a fresh install, don't have any other version of BO installed on my PC.
It just hangs there for hours, is that I need to check for any other installed components. Also have both .NET framework 2 & 3.5 installed on my pc. Even if I cancel it doesnt do anything. I killed the process and tried the install again but no luck.
Thanks.

Disabling the McAfee didnt help, still had the problem.
Found another workaround to install the client tool. When we install the BO Client tool it creates four 'msiexec.exe' process, when it starts registering modules then you will see a fifth msiexec, that is the culprit. So when the install hangs make a note of the dll file and kill the fifth msiexec (you can find with the process id under task manager). Later register the dll manually.
For example my install go stuck while registering 'MyInfoView.dll', I killed the fifth msiexec process and then manually registered the dll. Install completed successfully and the tools worked without issue.
Thanks.

Https call from SAP SOAP client tool

Hi,
in order to call a webservice via https using the SAP SOAP client tool, I've done the following:
1. The Client cert field filled with my personal certificate from IE (pcert.pfx)
2. The Trust store field left as it was (cacerts file of the jre).
When calling the service I am getting
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: No trusted certificate found
Very likely this is caused by setting 2.
Could anybody advise how to get an X.509 certificate of trusted root CAs? Any chance to export from IE or would one have to get that from a CA? File types required are ppfx or p12, which is strange since these contain private keys.
Much appreciated.
Rene Funke

Hi Rene,
You need to include the full certificate chain in the p12 file. i.e. private cert and root CA cert. IE will not export the full certificate path with the private certificate unless it was imported into IE with this flag set. You could use Firefox to generate the pks12 file. It will include the full certificate path.
This private certificate (p12 file) should then be added to the truststore in XI.
Also, .p12 (pkcs#12) file format defines a file format commonly used to store private keys with accompanying public key certificates - not just private keys.
Hope this helps.

Edit .app file in excel and then open it in client tool?

Dear Gurus,
I am very new to HFM and would like to know what practice a HFM consultant will use in editing the metadata.
My boss recommend me to edit metadata( .app file) in excel and save it into a format that can be read and opened by client tool.
However, I find no way to achieve this.
How can i edit metadata in excel and then open it in HFM client tool?

Good morning,
I think the best way to do it it's working with macros. You can work with an Excel file and then, convert it to the .txt format by using macros. A .txt is more suitable to be later worked as .app.
However, you can also do it by using Copy/Paste.
1. Open the .app in a Note Pad, so you can work with .txt file.
2. Copy the .txt data in the Excel file.
3. Then, it's just working with Data > Text to Columns to format the file. Then, you can work in Excel.
Then, you will have to put the Excel file in a .txt, so you will have to follow the data files requirements. You still can do this manually, but you will have to pay attention to the format (FILE_FORMAT=11.1.2, !VERSION=11.1.3609, !CUSTOM_ORDER=Custom1;Custom2;Custom3;Custom4, !APPLICATION_SETTINGS, !CURRENCIES, etc., as it is the Admin Guide). It will also depend on the HFM version you're working with, specially when working with customs.
I received a good document about a couple of months ago that can be helpful, so if you send me an email address, I'll forward it.
Regards,
Lu

Change SAP BI Password from BO Client Tools / Infoview, SAP Authentication

Hi,
We are using SAP BI BO Integration Kit (BO XI 3.1, SAP BI 7.0) & able to use SAP BI Queries with WebI, Xcelsius etc.
For a user group, we would be providing only Infoview access (using SAP Authentication). This means we would not want to install any BO Client Tools, SAP GUI or SAP Integration Kit Client, on user desktop.
We are faced with a issue - How does the user change password from Infoview (this is an SAP BI User ID used to login from Infoview).
Initial Password of SAP BI User cannot be changed from Infoview, since it doesnot prompt for changing the Initial Password.
Any ideas how to handle this situation.
regards,
Rajesh K Sarin

Hi Erwin,
no. Also within BI4 you are not able to change your SAP password.
The Workaroung of Ingo is very suitable using SAP GUI for HTML.

Management and maintanence of 2008r2 developments with 2012 client tools

Hi eb
I need to manage and maintane sql server 2008r2 developments like databases,ssis packages,ssrs reports,ssas native cubes
and at the same time start developping in 2012 tools for 2012 servers with thier own version of client tools.
Questions:
Can 2008r2 and 2012 client tools co-exist on the same development machine?
Are there any known issues with development of any of the sql server 2008r2 components after instalation of the 2012 client components?
I guess it is not possible to uninstall the 2008r2 client tools alltogther because managing 2008r2 developments from within 2012 client tools would automatically upgrade them to 2012 version (as was the case with the 2005-2008 versions before)?
Last and not list do 2012 client tools require windows 7 OS?
TIA for your attention
Rea

>>>Can 2008r2 and 2012 client tools co-exist on the same development machine?
Yes, they can , but you can develop SSIS 2012 to work against SS2008R2

Unable to install Client Tools for Sybase ASE 15.7 on Windows Server 2012 64-Bit

Hello Folks,
I just downloaded the client tools package from https://support.sap.com/swdc --> Installation and Upgrades --> A-Z list --> SAP ADAPTIVE SERVER ENTERPRISE --> SYBASE ASE 15.7 --> Installation --> Microsoft Windows --> 51044415.zip
I'm trying to install the client tools for a newly provisioned Windows 2012 64-Bit machine. After unzipping the folder and running autorun, the installation does not proceed. When I go to pcclient64 and run either setup.exe or setupConsole.exe, I get the error "This Application has Unexpectedly Quit, Invocation of this Java Application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This application will now exit. (LAX)". I stumbled across various posts on the forum, and it appears that the installer is not certified for Windows Server 2012. I tried using the compatibility mode for Windows 7, and it proceeds further and launches the SAP GUI; however, it closes afterwards.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
51044415 is a PC-Client 15.7 refresh.
You are using a version that was not certified with Windows 2012. Get the most current version PC-Client 15.7 SP130 or SDK 15.7 SP130 or SP132.
If your looking for PC-Client5.7 SP130 look for EBF23439
We didn't get certified with Windows 2012 until SDK 15.7 ESD#6 even with that I reported a few minor issues.
You need the following on the machine before the installation.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) (or dsedit and ocscfg will not work)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x64) (or dsedit and ocscfg will not work)
Thanks,
