Of course 2,147,483,647 and 4'294'967'295 are pretty famous numbers. But no thread is too simple or obvious to point out that a minimum of effort is required in asking a question, or why would somebody invest his time in providing an answer?

Yes, it will be confusing and you better document it more than usual. It's one of the sad issues you bring with you for long ...

Sorry but why did you call your folder "Oracle_Home_12.2.1.3.0" if it's OBIEE 12.2.1.4 ? The issue is your initial first 12c install didn't adopt the correct structure, when you start with the domain inside the product folder, this one will have to stay forever .... But it isn't a big deal, the oracle home isn't dual but…

The "suggested solution" given by Doc ID 2161550.1 is the issue ... That piece of information is accessible only to people having a valid support contract. So simply says you applied the solution of that Doc ID and still it isn't working.

Please remove copy/paste content from MOS documents. You can't post it in a public forum, if you want to post that content you would need to move your thread to

Way too much context provided Click the button there on top and it's fixed ... More seriously: Context, version, environment etc.

The more effort you do in asking the question, the more effort people do in providing answers...

Do you talk about analysis ( OBIEE Answers, dashboards and analysis) or report from BI Publisher?

As Joel said the certification matrix give you an info on what minimum version. Just worth adding that the export in PDF isn't done by Acrobat Reader or any other tool installed on your client, it's done by the server itself, therefore the export will always be successful from a client point of view. And I never heard of…

What you look for doesn't exist out of the box. There isn't any privilege that manage that. Catalog privileges define what you are allowed to see or not in the catalog and for every single object (the links to edit or expand or not). From a functional point of view I'm not sure what you try to achieve, sounds like a…

Depends on your architecture. As Christian said Enterprise is maybe the best way to go except if you have a very special need that…

What you see is normal. Look at this picture: the first highlighted part is where OBIEE set the border you define with the options in the "Border" section. The second highlighted element is where a custom CSS will be applied. Between the 2 there is still a bit of things, that's why it's normal to see a difference in the…

The UI allows to upload a file, looking at the URL called in the background with the POST request (I believe it's a POST, didn't check) and the few fields passed with the file would allow to easily automate the process with cURL or something similar.

Something similar to "analyticsRes", but using a different deployment, could make it. "analyticsRes" is generally used by various things custom styles etc. which doesn't require any security. Nothing prevent you from deploying another folder in the same way you did with "analyticsRes" (so it will have a different path in…

Well, OBIEE isn't Toad and OBIEE isn't SQL Developer. So if you want to use a variable you need to use the OBIEE syntax for it. For a presentation variable you could use the standard syntax like @{variable} etc. It will depends on the kind of variable you want to use, the syntax could be different. There are many blog…

I don't believe the behaviour or OBIEE is really wrong... Your fact table join to these 2 tables as 2 totally separate things, and you want to merge them into one. From a logical point of view, you will need to trick the system a bit more to make it think they could be the same thing. Obviously you agree that it's…

I don't have a webservice giving me a WSDL with a method with multiple parameters handy, so can't test. If the GUI issues you have are when building your analysis and defining the action, you can definitely have a look at the XML and "fix" things there setting the various things.
