XL Reporter and SQLEXPRESS: unable to connect to XL Reporter

I have installed B1, for demo purposes, on a Windows Vista Ultimate laptop and I am using MS SQL 2008 Express. I can connect to XL Reporter from the Add-on Manager, but when I try to open XL Reporter, I get the following error:
Unable to connect to XL Reporter.
Error! Server communication failed!
Cause: Server DELL15
The connect information provided in Metainfo.xml is wrong.
(Please contact the administrator to run ChangeDBPassword)
I have been through many posts and notes on related subjects, but none have helped. I have uninstalled, removed XL Reporter folder and .sbo files, and reinstalled and still no luck.
I ran ConnectionManager.exe and the default DELL15 server with the admin userid and appropriate password does not work. When I change this to DELL15\SQLEXPRESS then I connect from within the ConnectionManager. But, when I try to start XL Reporter from the menu in Business One again, I get the same error. When I recheck the server that is in ConnectionManager.exe, it has been set back to DELL15. Is this value stored in a database somewhere that overwrites the data in the XML file?
I appreciate any help you can give.

Hi Alan,
This fix is tried and tested for SAP 2007A so I am not sure if it will work with 8.8.
To change the server in 8.8 -
Go to your Server Tools, select the License Manager and click on Settings.
Bottom Left is a new button called Configure Security
Enter your B1SiteUser details
This will then give you the option to change the server.
If DELL15\SQLEXPRESS fails to get you any closer try .\SQLEXPRESS (note the full stop at the front).  Normally this is the Server you put in when logging into SAP on the database server and the client you put DELL15\SQLEXPRESS.
Let me know if you still have issues.
Thanks,
Michelle

    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes has no affect on the media on the computer or the account it is linked to.
    If the media was purchased under another iTunes account, then it is permanently tied to that account.

  • MDM 71 - mdm console and clix - unable to connect to database server

    Hi,
    environment, MDM 7.1, AIX 6, Oracle 10.2.0.4 (installed as part of a standalone java AS)
    i've an issue. I have installed MDM 71 via sapinst, before that I installed a standalone java application server. During the installation, i gave the 'oracle client', 'oracle home' and 'oracle sqlplus utility' to be those of the oracle database installed for the java AS.
    After sapinst completed I tested my connection to the database via
    tnsping <SID> = OK
    sqlplus system/passwd@<SID> = OK
    When i start up the mdm console (7.1.02.90) i can mount the MDM server, BUT when I try to configure the database settings i get
    error  'unable to connect to database server'
    I get the same error when i use clix dblist
    Error: 0x84020004, Unable to connect with Database Server
    Has anybody got any ideas.

    To see why the MDM is not able to connect to database, do the following:
    % cd /usr/sap/<SID>/MDSxx/log
    % ls -ltr
    You will find last updated log file with name like MDS_LogXXUX101224X164953.csv
    % tail -100 MDS_LogXXUX101224X164953.csv
    You will see the reason for not being able to connect. If the reason is:

  • Having issues getting Apple TV to connect to comcast wifi. Sees the router' enter password and says unable to connect. Router connected to iPad and pcs with no issues..., thoughts?

    At a loss. Have comcast wifi. No issues connecting to iPad and laptop. However, when I try to connect iPhone 5 with OS 7 or applets with latest software I get unable to connect message.   I can get the iPhone to connect if right next to modem, but unable to connect one room away. iPads have no issues and connect from any room.

    Hello Tvsteven,
    Thank you for providing all the details regarding the Wi-Fi connection issue you are experiencing with your Apple TV.  I found an article with some steps you can take to troubleshoot an issue like this.
    I recommend reviewing the full article, but the section titled "If you can see your Wi-Fi network, but you are unable to connect to it" specifically stands out to me for the situation you described:

  • JConsole and MX4J - Unable to connect.

    Hi, I am trying to connect to an application that uses MX4J for its JMX monitoring, but I am unable to connect to any remote or local JVMs.
    Java version=1.6.0_01-b06
    I can see my local process but if I try connect to it I just get the info window saying connecting to <and then the pid number>, but never connects.
    If I try connect to the remote process using the server host and port it tries for a long time before it fails to connect.
    service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://host:port/myconnector
    Firstly can you use JConsole if you are using MX4J?
    Is there a log file that gives more info about the failed connection?
    Any ideas would be appreciated:
    Thanks,
    Shawn

    I will answer my own question.
    Yes you can use MX4J with JConsole. The problem I was having was because of the way we block our main thread.
    When we start our services we kick off a new thread from the main thread and then our main thread goes into a wait where it listens for IO from the user using the System.in.
    BufferedReader r = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
    String in = null;
    do {
    // Waits for user input from the console
    in = r.readLine(); //blocks the main thread, this blocks the JConsole from being attaching to the MBeanServer

  • Why does my apple tv constantly stop streaming and become unable to connect to itunes?

    I have a 2nd gen Apple TV, which I bought in Dec'10. Lately, as in the last month, it just stops streaming. It will be streaming content, then all of a sudden, it stops, and bar comes up on the bottom of the screen, showing the length of the video, with a spinning icon on the left, where the play/RW/FF icon usually appear. It never recovers. I'll stop the video, and try playing again, but it will say that "netflix" or "iTunes" etc. is currently not available. It's as if it's getting knocked offline. I check my setting, and the ip address is fine, it is not assigning itself an ip address. My internet is working with no issues at all. I'll try doing a network test but it sits there trying to connect to itunes, then it says it's unable to do so.
    It's becoming more and more frequent. The only thing that works is resetting it, and sometimes even that doesn't work. So, I have to restore it. I've had to restore a couple times in the past month, and I'm resetting almost daily.
    Also, sometimes it just reboots itself for no reason at all. This, too is occuring more and more on a regular basis.
    I have the apple tv plugged right into my Time Capsule via ethernet. The hdmi out is going to an input on my surround sound receiver. I've also bypassed the receiver, just to rule it out. I typically get anywhere from 30-40 mbps when I do a speedtest from my macbook on speedtest.net or speakeasy. I'm mentioning this because my connection is more than sufficient to stream the 720p content the apple tv is limited to. My interenet has gone out in the past, but it's rare. It's not the culprit, since someone is always on line when this happens, so we'd know right away if it was the internet going out. It's always the first thing I check when this happens, even though I'm pretty sure my connection is not the issue. Also, I don't start freaking out, the second it happens. I usually don't look into it until a minute or so after the video has frozen. At that point I usually hit MENU, to escape the current screen, then try playing the content again. That's when it can't do anything, and I'm often forced to reset or reboot.
    I have tried searching for others with this issue, but haven't come across anything. The closest I've seen are situations where people can't stream at all, due to a network issue. Also, it's been getting worse, which makes me wonder if it's a hardware issue. Again, the apple tv is on a wired connection to my Time Capsule, and the ip address is not self assigned, it starts with DHCP, not 169... And, my internet connection is not the issue.
    Any help would be appreciated, and sorry if I repeated myself, I just wanted to make sure I didn't leave anything out.

    I had problems with streaming until I changed the WiFi channel that I was using.  The original one conflicted with my neighbor.  After that, MOST of my streaming problems vanished.  Occasionally, a movie would pause for more buffering and I eventually ran an ethernet cable from the Apple TV to my Apple Extreme (to eliminate the Wifi).  I have not had a single problem since then (except to repair the drywall after running the ethernet from one floor to another).  :-)

  • 2 Intel Xserves, both running fast and both unable to connect to Server Mon

    Hey guys -
    Since this is happening to two identical machines, I'm wondering if I'm just not doing something right.
    I have two Xserves, both essentially functioning as metadata controllers for an Xsan volume. They don't do anything else but they both run fullblast at all times.
    When I initially set them up, I disabled LOM on them. However, I can't connect to either of them using the Server Monitor. This is being done locally through a belkin KVM switch, so it's nothing to do with firewall issues. They're both on two networks, a private one (for the Xsan metadata) and a public one that operates through proxy servers. Currently, neither of them can physically connect to the internet (owing to an error in the proxy settings I'm guessing), both other machines in the local network and see them and connect to them.
    They're both the same configuration, with 2GB of RAM, and operating at 10.4.8. They have dual power supplies and are running into two separate UPSs for power redundancy.
    I was wondering if updating to 10.4.10 would have an effect on them, or if there was a procedure to reset the PMU (or SMU or SMC or whatever they call it these days) on them.
    I've been searching these forums for similar issues, but most of them seem to be related to intel xserves which actually HAD LOM turned on, and these guys do not.
    If it isn't any of these issues, how would I go about thermally recalibrating both of them?

    well, I done fixed it.
    After I got LOM up and running (127.0.0.1 was the way to go), I was able to see that the CPU intake fans were all blowing at a strong 16K rpm. Not a good sign, even though there were no warning lights going off and everything was reported as green and normal. Since this SAN lived in a hushrack (two servers and two RAIDs all told), I first tried to isolate airflow out of the equation by removing the back enclosure and opening the front door. Even after the heat dissipated, it ran at top speed. I ran all software updates possible, installed the OS onto an empty hard drive, and still got the same thing. I yanked one of the systems out of the rack it was in and swapped the fibre card from slot 1 to slot 2. I started it back up before returning it to the rack and, goodness me, it topped off between 5K-6K. I was so happy with myself that I tossed it back into the rack, patched it all back in, and fired it up. Boom. After about a minute of being on, it rocketed upwards straight to 16K rpm.
    So now it was a matter of playing the isolation game. I pulled fibre cables, I tested the power cables in both the UPS and straight into the wall, I pulled the KVM switch out and just stood by listening for any changes.
    It turned out to be two bad ethernet cables, of all things. I'd plug the cable in and the fans would start their best jet engine impression. The primary metadata controller had a bad metadata cable, and the open directory master had a bad public ethernet cable.

  • I downloaded the corresponding Apple app, version 1.0.3627. I carefully followed the sync instructions several times and was unable to connect. 4 emails with no response. Help

    I received a cookoo watch as a gift. After downloading the Apple App, version 1.0.3627, I carefully followed the instructions repeatedly to connect to my iphone 5 only to fail to get a connections. I tried rebooting, turning of and on bluetooth and wifi with the same results.  I have connected to the help link in the app and after four emails over the past week, have not had a response. Any suggestions? I almost feel like someone gave me an expensive bird house that happened to contain a cheap watch.

    Definitely seems to me this is a problem with the App Developer. Hope they can get your cuckoo working.
