Crystal 2011 or Enterprise in SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.0

$

I am new to Crystal and BI. We have SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.0 that I have been using to create reports. I now need to create Crystal Reports and save them to another network drive to be opened from a different web application (such as SharePoint). My question is, since BI has Crystal 2011/Enterprise, can I create a report in BI and then deploy it elsewhere?

Crystal Reports taking 10+ minutes to run

$

Hello,

 

We are having an issue where several of our Crystal Reports are taking over 10 minutes to run and need to figure out why.

 

Platform:  Windows Server 2008 R2, Quad 2.70 Xeon (VM), 16GB RAM

Database:  Oracle 11gR2

Crystal Reports Server Embedded 2008 SP5

 

Some history:   Our project went live in Feb '15 and things were good.   We had 1 reporting server and reports would take a minute or 2 (if that).  As time went on, the reports overwhelmed the Reporting Application Server 12 and had to be restarted multiple times per day.  We scaled out the RAS service, installing it on all 4 application servers and that fixed our issue for a while.  However, things are getting bad again, specifically with reports running longer than 10 minutes and intermittently not even completing.

 

Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated, please let me know if any further information is needed.

 

Thank You

Set "Use same database logon as when report is run" from SDK

Hi,

 

Is it possible to change the setting mentioned in the title via Java SDK?

 

Currently I am able to change it via CMC.

 

I found an example which has IReportLogon.setPromptOnDemandViewing(boolean promptOnDemand), the description of this method seems to be what I am looking for, however it doesn't change the setting after running the code below, everything else seems to have updated when I checked the report's Database Configuration on CMC. There is no error.

 

public static void changeDatabaseConfiguration(String reportName) {  IEnterpriseSession enterpriseSession=null;  try {  enterpriseSession=getEnterpriseSession();  IInfoStore infoStore=(IInfoStore)enterpriseSession.getService("InfoStore");  IInfoObjects infoObjects=infoStore.query("SELECT * FROM CI_INFOOBJECTS WHERE SI_INSTANCE=0 and si_kind='CrystalReport'");  IInfoObject infoObject=null;  for (int i=0; i<infoObjects.size(); i++) {  infoObject=(IInfoObject)infoObjects.get(i);  if (infoObject.getTitle().equalsIgnoreCase(reportName)&&infoObject.getParent().getTitle().equalsIgnoreCase(CRS_USER_ID)) {  IReport rep=(IReport)infoObject;  ISDKList boReportLogons=rep.getReportLogons();  IReportLogon boReportLogon=(IReportLogon)boReportLogons.get(0);  boReportLogon.setOriginalDataSource(false);  boReportLogon.setCustomServerType(CeReportServerType.ORACLE);  boReportLogon.setCustomServerName(CRS_USER_ID);  boReportLogon.setCustomUserName(DB_USER_ID);  boReportLogon.setCustomPassword(DB_USER_PASSWORD);  boReportLogon.setPromptOnDemandViewing(false);  infoStore.commit(infoObjects);  }  }  } catch (Exception e) {  e.printStackTrace();  } finally {  if (enterpriseSession!=null) {  enterpriseSession.logoff();  }  }
}

Which Version of BusinessObjects.DSWS.*.dll?

$

Hi Folks,

 

We're running SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Service Pack 2, Version 14.1.2.1121.

 

Which version of the BusinessObjects.DSWS.*.dll files should we have?

 

The files installed on the server in this location: "C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64\dotnet\web services\dsws_consumer"  have a date of 10/10/2013 which seems too old.

 

Where do we find and download the correct version of these BusinessObjects.DSWS.*.dll files?

 

Thanks for any help.

BI4 View Mode Takes 10 mins to load

Hello Experts,

 

We have BI4.1 SP5 FP3 on Windows Server 2012 R2 and Tomcat's Web Application Server on another Win Server 2012 R2.

 

When we right click any document in BILaunchPad (either webi, crystal, excel doc, word doc or links) and select "VIEW", it takes like 10 mins to load the page. All other functionalities like modify and schedule seems to be working fine. The view mode works fine once it gets loaded but it takes like 10 mins to load. I have been working with SAP from the past two weeks with no results yet.

 

Any thoughts what I should do to fix this issue?

 

Appreciate your help.

 

Thanks,

Understanding User Session Counts in BI 4.0

$
0
0

Hi,

 

I am trying to understand how the session counts are incremented in BI 4.0

 

As a test I have logged onto the CMC and the BI launch pad on my test environment which noone currently is using.

 

As expected when opening the 2 sessions in two instances of internet explorer, the CMC's "sessions" area show me that there are 2 active sessions.

 

When I open a report in the BI launch pad in the other window the session count jumps to 3. OK.

 

So, logically you might expect that opening further reports would increment the session count. However it does not increment and opening several further reports seems to have no impact on the session count. How are the session counts incremented?

 

Also when logging out of the BI Launch pad the session count in the CMC remains at 3. I am wondering if the session count is threaded or cached in some way which could account for this?

 

Can someone out there shed any light on this for me?

 

Any help would be gratefully received.

 

Many Thanks.

Hi,

Is there  a way , I can find out who logged into SAP BOBIP in last 60 days. If I log into the CMC, and I look into the session, I can see who are logged in currently. But I want to find out who were logged in in past 60 days . I went to the Auditing section, and under the common event, both "logon" and "logout" are checked. I just want to know where I can find "who were logged in in past 60 days" .

Thanks

Webi Cross Tab RunningSum with null values

BO 4.1 SP5 FP3

 

I am trying to build a crosstab in Webi with a running sum (see screenshot). I have null values for certain columns.

 

As you can see, the running sum for the first row works fine. For the other rows however it doesn't work at all. The only difference I can see is where have null values at various points, whereas in the first row, we only have null values in the first columns.

 

I have used runningsum([measure].

 

Any ideas?

Hi Experts,

 

would like you advise on one of the issue i am facing. I tried searching for it on net but couldnt get a good grip on specifics.

 

I am installed with BI 4.1 SP5, Now when i am trying to refresh my reports published from WEB I to Launch Pad (data source : UNV) , the system is giving the the below error:

Database error: (CS) unable to connect to infostore. (IES 10901) (error:INF).


Where as the same report i am able to refresh it from tool.

 

I thought it to be a ODBC drivers issue, for that these are what i am available with :  my client is intalled with 32bit driver and server is on 64bit Driver, which i beieve is fine.

 

With the same configuration settings i was able to refresh the reports couple of days back, but not now.

 

 

Looking forward for your expertise.

 

 

 

Warm Regards,

Umar Nayab.
