BO Explorer 4.0 Installation error

$
0
0

Hello

 

I am installing a Business Objects server for my client but Explorer 4.0 installation fails

 

System is: Windows Server 2008 R2 - 16x vCPU - 52 GB RAM - 300 GB Disk

 

Installed software:

SAP Business Objects Server 4.0 SP9

SAP Business Objects Client 4.0 SP9

SAP Crystal Reports Enterprise 4.0 SP9

SAP Dashboards 4.0 SP9

SAP LiveOffice 4.0 SP9

 

 

I tried installing Explorer 4.0 SP6 and SP7 but all failed at the same step. I cannot pass enter credentials phase. I checked my password and it is working without any problems when I enter CMS and BI screens. I also confirmed with IT team that there are no firewall restrictions.

 

What I did so far

 

Uninstalled antivirus software

Disabled Windows Firewall service

Entered server IP and server FQDN into hosts file

Restarted server

Tried SP6 and SP7 installation packages

 

You can find my error in the attached file.

 

 

Best regards

I have created a Universe on top SAP BEx Query using Universe Designer Tool and to convert the values into Millions so i have divided each measure with 1000000. On top of this Universe, i have created Information Space and Indexed it and created an Exploration View Set.

 

Now i'm viewing my Exploration Views, I found an inconsistency with Decimal Format for a measure value like below.

I'm using SAP BO Explorer 4.1 SP2 version.

 

Can anyone please suggest me what could be the issue and how to solve this.

Missing objects to be promoted

Hi All,

We have encountered an issue with promotion of BO Explorer Information Spaces. We add Information Space to Promotion Job:

1.JPG

Then we click Promote:

2.JPG

And Promotion Manager displays: Objects to be promoted (0). So we can't promote our Information Spaces. Other object types can be promoted successfully. We use BO 4.0 SP11. Any ideas?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Dmitriy.


Additional Information:

somteimes Promotion Manager raises exception:


Sorry, Promotion management application is unable to process your request.
The error from the server is: Failed to get dependencies of the job.(PRS 00048)com.businessobjects.framework.dependency.dm.exception.DMException$ExceptionWrapper: A com.businessobjects.sdk.plugin.desktop.infospace.spi.driver.InfoSpaceMigrationException occurred; original exception message getDependees()...


And this problem occurs only for .unx based Information Spaces.

SAP BO Explorer 4.1 - Cluster Questions

$

0

Dear all,

 

In our environment we have a BO Cluster which runs on two dedicated servers (Windows 2012 R2, 64G RAM) with the following components:

 

  • SAP BO BI 4.1 SP06 FP02
  • SAP BO Explorer 4.1 SP06 FP02
  • Tomcat 7

 

I would like to ask the following regarding Explorer:

 

1.) Should we still disable IPv6 on both servers as per SAP Note '2078091 - Explorer Master Server stops unexpectedly'? The Note was last updated in 28.05.2015.

 

2.) Should we move the Explorer Index Files Directory (%DefaultDataDir%/Polestar/index) from each node to the common storage alike Filestore for SAP BO BI 4.1? Is there any recommended practice about the index file directory when we have a clustered environment?

 

Thanks for any answers,

ilias

Explorer in PROD refuses to Index - works in DEV

$

Hi everyone.  This is stumping me and could use your thoughts on the matter.

 

We're using a BEX query in PROD to feed a unv to run a Bus Explorer. 

 

After promotion it generates the error below.  I attempted to save and export to PROD with same results.

 

The DEV and PROD universes are both using the BEX query from PROD so no connection changes is needed.

 

So the BEX is common, the Connection is common.  Restarted the Explorer services as well.

 

Any thoughts on the matter that I'm missing?

 

Prompt response is very helpful as you can imagine being a production issue.

 

Thanks all.

Currently we use SAP Solution Manager to monitor their SAP system landscape and now require the BI (Business Intelligence) systems configuring in Solution Manager.

SAP BO Explorer strange date display

$

Hallo Experts,

 

I am seeing strange behaviour in BO explorer. We have created BO Explorer views based on SAP BW Cubes and DSOs.

 

Recently our BO upgraded to 4.1 from 4.0.

 

 

Behaviour:

 

In SAP BW InfoCube the date is (for example): 15.02.2014

In SAP BO IDT the displayed value is: 15.02.2014

 

but in SAP BO Explorer we are seeing 14.02.2014 (one day early).

 

 

It is not specific to any one Explorer view but for all based on SAP BW infoproviders.

 

 

 

Can you please suggest me any ideas/Solutions?

 

Thanks

Is it true that explorer is phasing out?

$

Hello,

 

I came across this blog post dated 2014, saying that Explorer is going to phase out and replaced by SAP Lumira.

 

Link:

SAP BusinessObjects Explorer, R.I.P. | Dallas Marks on Business Intelligence

 

Can you confirm if it is true?

 

If yes, can you link me a post from SAP regarding this matter.

 

I am currently using Version 14.1.4 Build 1327. Can you confirm me that I am using the latest version?

 

To be honest, I find it very buggy use. I have some issues to retrieve data from SAP Hana and Information Design Tools. Even after indexing several times, not all data are retrieved.
