The files and DNS lookup, look OK, but the issue still matches.

Give this a test:

Create the file biserver.txt in [DOMAIN_HOME]/config/fmwconfig/bienv/core/

Edit the file and add only the hostname  (that matches bienv-compoonents.xml — MADPAPPD01

Restart the services

Test the the datamodel.cmd uploadrp command again

If it fails, try the same steps with the FQDN

If that does not work, then please log a Service Request and have Support reproduce the issue with a Windows OAS 2024 server installation. This may potentially be a regression of an old issue, not sure.

Please confirm that the RPD is downloaded successfully with the system exit code 0 and you are able to open it with the Admin tool and verify.

Most of the time "null" has to do with hostname

java net api may be having some sort of hostname mismatch.

For the parameter -S 99.99.99.99 are you using an IP address, or the hostname?

If the hostname, does it match your /etc/hosts file? or nslookup results?
What about the bienv-compoonents.xml ?

@Shantaram-Oracle

yes, i can open the downloaded rpd using the OAS Client tool

userva

@SteveF-Oracle

For the parameter -S 99.99.99.99 are you using an IP address, or the hostname? Yes, i have used both IP and hostname, same result.

below is the entry of hosts file

10.121.40.143 MADPAPPD01.XXXXX.NET MADPAPPD01

nslookup result:

nslookup 10.121.40.143

Name: madpappd01.xxxxx.net

Address: 10.121.40.143

I am not able to find any file named bienv-compoonents.xml

Please remove -S key as long as you run the command from the OAS Server the comamnd as
datamodel uploadrpd -I D:\oracle\product\RPD\DEV_2_20240418.rpd -W xxxxxxxxx -U weblogic -P xxxxxxxx -SI ssi

@Mostafa Morsy-Oracle

tried without -S on OAS Server, same result and same error log

Hi @userva,

You can use lowercase s like "-s <hostname>" and also add -Y at the end and then try downloading..

like below -

datamodel.cmd downloadrpd -U weblogic -P Welcome1 -W Welcome1 -O D:\oracle\product\RPD\DEV_2_20240418.rpd -s <hostname_or_IP> -N 9502 -SI ssi -Y

Thanks.

Great memory @Mostafa Morsy-Oracle , I do remember now that was introduced in OAS 2022 time frame. If executing on the server, the host and port are queried from the endpoint manager, and not necessary. On a client installation, the switches are necessary.

We had a team update the following MOS Doc ID for clarity.

After upgrading to Oracle Analytics Server (OAS), datamodel.sh|.cmd 'uploadrpd' 'downloadrpd' Command Line Fail With Various Errors
