#UNAVAILABLE in Webi 4.2 SP2

Hello All,

 

I am facing an error in webi 4.2 SP2 when connecting to SAP HANA as a direct source. It is recently upgraded to 4.2 SP2 from 4.1 SP4.

Previously I am able to solve this error by creating a formula directly on the HANA Calculation view objects, but now if I apply the same technique it is not working and throwing an error #UNAVAILABLE as the objects included are database delegated.

 

This time I tried applying NoFilter on measure and it is resolved, but the data is not correct and getting same value in the cells in different tabs. this error is appearing particularly on the Summary row.

 

By the way I am using two different queries and merging them at webi report.

 

Please need urgent help on this.

 

Thanks,

Sukumar.

Hi everyone,

 

 

I have got a list of comments per employee and day but some days I write more than one comment per employee. Sample data:

 

data.PNG

 

I want to show this information in a cross table like this:

 

table.PNG

 

This blog http://bi.srivatsakr.com/2011/08/converting-rows-into-single-cell-comma.html is really useful but I have not managed to show my information because of the cross table. Is there any way to get the comments concatenated?

 

 

Thanks in advance,

Hi all,

 

I need to visualize images in WEBI reports, on a BI 4.1 Platform.

The customer images are on a server and the path is of this type:

 

\\hostname\folder\AAAAAAAA.bmp

 

I have enabled the technical BO user to read in the hostname and folder of the images, and I have tried to reach the images  in different ways:

- changing the images directory in CMC

- selecting different "Read content as" property of the cells

- using "boimg"

 

but no solution worked. Where am I wrong?

 

Much appreciated if anyone can help me.

Blank pages in WebI reports after instalation Java 8 on workstation.

Hi,

After instalation Java client version 8.0.4 on workstation I have a problem in reports.

When I open/view report in BI LaunchPad, and if in report default is check in Input Controls (selected value), then first/second pages are blank. Page Header is OK.

Report isn't dynamically refreshed, data are on the third page.

When I selected other value in Input Controls, report look good, first page is not blank.

 

Environment - BO 4.0 SP11 Patch5 (Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1), upgraded to version 4.0 SP12, but problem is still.

 

Temporary resolution is;

1. After login to BI LaunchPad, change in Preferences\Web Intelligence in section View, check 'Rich Internet Application'. Save and exit.

2. Or, after open report, change display on 'Quick Display Mode' (right-down corner).

 

Temporary solution doesn't satisfy me, so.... where is the problem ?

Persistent exception when loading crystal report (2013, VB.Net, Visual Studio 2015), despite popular solution

My software populates a DataTable in memory, then passes it to a Crystal Report using the ReportDocument.SetDataSource method. When running the report, the following error is received, originating from within Crystal’s dll structure:


Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86\dotnet1\crdb_adoplus.dll' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.


Searching for this error (it occurs letter-for-letter on most systems) brings up the following solution:


In your application’s App.Config file, find a line that looks like this:

< startup>
< supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
< /startup>


Add the following subtag:

< startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
< supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
< /startup>



I have tried this to no avail. My App.Config file has the useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy bit, but the error persists.


I tried restructuring the report to use a direct data source from the database through Crystal, but running that report shows a Database Login screen where the Database Name is blank and read-only. Trying to specify the login info using the inbuilt report creator, the ReportDocument.SetDatabaseLogon method, and even iterating through the ReportDocument.Database.Tables collection and setting the ConnectionInfo object all produce the same result (though sometimes slightly different, such as also blanking the username and password, or changing the servername to DataSet1).


Is there any further workaround for this error, or a fix in a newer version of Crystal Reports?

Hello everyone,

 

I'm presenting some issues creating Webi reports with an universe that has an Excel tables as base.

 

I follow the next steps:

 

1.- I donwloaded some tables from SAP ERP in excel format and created it a single file for all with different sheets and without any format.

2.- I added the DNS system on ODBC32 with Microsoft Excel Driver.

3.- I opened the Information design tool, created it the project, the .cnx, .cns, added the data foundation (with and without joins, with and without primary keys) and the empresarial layer. Finally, I saved it in the repository without problems.

4.- I opened the Web Intelligence Rich Client, select the option to create one Webi report with an universe. (I tried in the Launch Pad too)

5.- I select some dimensions to call the query and the result is this:

What do you recomended me? Is a DNS problem? A database problem?

Thanks for the help that can provide me.

"Object could not be scheduled"

Hi all,

 

Our organisation has recently upgraded to WEBI 4.1 and we're now having issues with scheduled reports. We have approx. 25 variations of reports all with varying queries & prompts set up to run automatically and the majority of them will now fail their first instance with a reason of simply "Object could not be scheduled" whereas under the previous 3.1 architecture this was never an issue. I've attached a screenshot with an example of just one of the reports that this has effected.

 

What's strange is that in a lot of cases the instance will immediately re-run and be successful, which leads me to believe that there is nothing inherently wrong with the reports themselves, but then some reports will simply fail and that instance will not run again. Any ideas what could be the problem here?

 

Many thanks

Hi All,

 

I'm going to start my work on universe ,as a part of that i'm analyzing the existing universe.

 

I have tested the universe and I found few things.

 

1. Found unknown cardinality in two cases---1. when I click on detect it is showing unknown cardinality and

                                                                 2. Already we have 1-1 relationship ,If I click on detect it is showing U C.

 

2.Cardinality is not valid-----1.If I click on detect,it is showing 1-n

                                        2.But they made 1-1.

 

3.Missing cardinality----1.If I click on detect,it is showing 1-n.

                                  2.They didn't detect.

 

My query is I found these mistakes ,but they fixed this universe as data source and made reports also.

 

When can we develop the universe like this?

 

Kindly help me.


Thanks

Unspecified error invoking method or accessing property "onChangeDocID"

Hello,

 

We are currently on SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 2.

Every time a new webi document is being created or changed where-in the source is defined and we are ready to design the report -- it prompts an error "Unspecified error invoking method or accessing property "onChangeDocID". This is happening with all users.

 

I have checked the note  KB 1933283 for this issue and made necessary changes. The latest version of java(version 8 update 77 - build 1.8.0_77-b03) is installed on my system as well as the security settings are set to medium; low even. I have cleared the java cache. Updated to the latest version but to no avail.

This is happening with all the users while creating new webi report or while refreshing and user is thrown out of the report.

I have followed the specified link but no help from there either. SAP seems to have stopped supporting this particular BOBJ version I reckon?

 

Appreciate any help I can get. Attaching the error log and screenshots as well.

 

Thanks,

Jemma

I have a webi report based on a bex query, but it does not show the medium text for master data. For example for 0Material even though I select medium text, the report shows the key of 0Material in this field.

 

Any suggestion? I checked also the language, which is spanish for the text in BW, and I log on in Webi in spanish also.

 

There are som discussion around this issue but none of them have been correctly answered

Blurry Chart (rendering issues) when Webi report saved as or exported to PDF

Hello Gurus,

 

I've developed a Webi report which goes to top level management, 2 ways users will look at it are, PDF version in Adobe and printed on paper. The chart in it shows up as blurred in the PDF, it does look fine in Webi and when printed on paper.

 

We're at BO 4.0 SP9


I've read the KBA 1875544 and tried the solution by updating the procWebiPublishing.properties file located in 

<Install Dir>\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\java\lib\ and changing the parameter rendering.pdf.dpi from 96 (default value) to 300 and 1000 (tried both). The issue still persists.

 

I also read the KBA 1645281 and tried the solution by updating the caching_media_profiles.xml file located in C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64\config\bobjserver and changed the property "output.dpi" under the PDF sections from 300 (default) to 1000, as such:

<CUSTOM_MEDIA PROFILENAME="PDF" PRELOADPROFILE="pdf"

PRELOADRANGE="document">&<CUSTOM_MEDIA PROFILENAME="PDFNormal" >

 

That didn't work either. Images attached. Again, report looks fine in Webi and prints fine, its just that viewing the pdf is an issue. Please look at the value/Y Axis and the bars Borders, they seem to be blurry in the PDF, where as in the Webi image, they look sharp).

 

Please shed some light on this.

Days in Month - HANA?

I have [ReportingMonth] = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12] as a field which is type Number and I also have [ReportingYear] = [2013,2014,2015,2016] type Number

 

I want to calculate # of days in Month. I want for current year & month to calculate # of days as of today but for all prior months of previous years to be calculated as full months.

 

I am using below formula in WEBI and getting # of days accurately. How would I do something similar in HANA as a calculated column?

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

=If (FormatNumber([ReportingMonth];"00")=FormatNumber(MonthNumberOfYear(CurrentDate());"00"))

And

(FormatNumber([ReportingYear];"0000")=FormatNumber(Year(CurrentDate());"0000"))

Then DayNumberOfMonth(CurrentDate())

Else DayNumberOfMonth(LastDayOfMonth(ToDate([MMYYYY];"MMyyyy")))

Distinct count on two columns

I need to report on employees and training course dates.

 

The query return duplicates for which I have little control. I need to count distinct employees but I need to count them more than once if in the reporting period they has more than one session.

 

Total number of rows returned - 203 (with duplicates)

Distinct count of employees - 141

Distinct count of employees/training sessions - 144 (some employees had more than one session)

 

How do I achieve this number? We only have Distinct/All options in the count function.

 

I need this number as a calculation, the report doesn't need to display details by employee or date.

Dear Expert,

 

We have requirement to publish BO Xi 4 BI URL over internet for Public Users.

 

Since my BO server is hosted in Application segment I can’t directly bind BI URL with  any reverse proxy

 

My Question –

 

  1. 1) Is there any component which I can install in our Web Segment(kind of DMZ network) which can I  rout the traffic to BO Server which is hosted in our Internal network
  2. 2) Can I use mod_jk reverse proxy or Oracle OHS server which can communicate with BI server
