Hi Martin, There is already a thread somewhere on here with the question. The Apple version is "work in progress" apparently but, as you know better than us, there isn't any public announced date. I saw a screenshot already not long ago on twitter ... so it must be not too far (maybe)

Based on the filename there are chances it's this kind of thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Proxy_Auto-Discovery_Protocol So google will easily give you examples for a WPAD file.

https://sites.google.com/site/oraclebipublicstore/downloads You must find there a file for the vanilla samples.

Hi, Apparently these seems to be Windows related things (Google has many results with various workarounds etc.). What's the "context" of your laptop? Are you generally allowed to install apps and things like that?

If you check the log you often find more verbose on errors.

If you filter the analysis directly with your condition " filter_expr = 0.00 " does it work? Define the filter there to get the right filter and then move it back inside the FILTER. Why are you writing 0.00 ? 0.00 == 0, it's just zero. Isn't you column maybe a varchar and so you need '0.00' ? That's why I suggest to define…

I do not remember the exact list of JDBC drivers you get out of the box with Publisher, but you can for sure add the required one if it isn't there. http://docs.oracle.com/middleware/12212/bip/BIPAD/GUID-FB2AEC3B-2178-48DF-8B9F-76ED2D6B5194.htm#BIPAD289 Look at Setting Up a JDBC Connection to the Data Source , the 3rd…

Hi, Based on the OBIEE 12c certification matrix RHEL7 is fine as well as Oracle DB 12c. If you check the log files you will find some reasons of why it didn't started. Your BI Server, Scheduler and Presentation Service are down, so the logs will definitely have messages about these things.

For PBCS (so removing Essbase from the question) you find your answer here:

Hi, By adding a new connection to your Essbase cube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rbqo9rFzmBY

Did you check the logs of DVD to get a more explicit message?

Are you having the exact same as this: ?

Let see if ​ maybe has some extra hints on what to check or do (on my side it worked just fine, so didn't experience the issue).

Hi, Not sure of which exact part of the doc you are talking but it's probably related to the mashup part. So you have already some data (can be any kind of source) and you add a new source next to it to "extend" it. This extension is generally, as the doc says, extra attributes or extra measures. DVD / DV users do not need…

Hi, You can probably find the full message in the logs. The logs are into C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\Temp\DVDesktop\logs\OBIS So have a look there right after seeing the error and you must find the full message (and maybe even more details like the query or things like that). If you find the full message post…

To be honest technically what you ask could be done but ... it's bad (I'm kind of sure the licensing conditions prevent that and also it means your laptop/workstation is now a server always up etc.) So follow what Francesco is saying, it's the correct way of doing things

What version of Essbase? And what kind of Essbase is it? (OBIEE one, standalone, EPM ?)

You can find the logs in C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\Temp\DVDesktop\logs I would look into OBIS\obis1-diagnostic.log

Hi, As I managed to connect to Essbase with the earlier version (didn't try with the last one) there isn't a generic global error. Did you try checking the logs to see if you get some words about the reason? (the GUI just return a generic error) PS: which version of Essbase? I guess I remember there was some issues with…

Are you talking about Data Visualization Desktop which is currently at version 12.2.2.1.1-20161222001521 ? Or do you talk about the one installed with OBIEE (the /va/....) ? DVD can load XLSX files from Office 2016, so what kind of support do you look for? The OBIEE Data Visualization one also can load Office 2016 Excel…
