Uploading RPD is failing in 12c

Hi All

I am trying to upload rpd to 12c Linux VM from my host machine which is windows 10. When I am trying to upload I am facing below error.

C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\bi\modules\oracle.bi.commandline.tools\scripts>data-model-cmd.cmd -H

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/bi/lcm/metadata/MetadataUpdateException

Post more details: what's the version of your Admintool? Does it exactly match the OBIEE version of your SampleApp 607 VM? What's the full command you used?

SasDutta

I am using 12.2.1.1.0 version of Admin tool.

I am using Sample app V6. I hope it is using same version of BI servers. Though I am not sure. Do you know how to check in server? I am using just data-model-cmd.cmd -H command

By looking at the error, it looks like some jar files are missing in my host machine.

Yes, I check, Oracle BI server is same version as that of my admin tool.

Thanks

What is V6? Looking at OBIEE Samples  the numbering of SampleApp VM is 3 digits (first one for the year in general and the other 2 for the month of release).

So you are using v607 ? It would be 12.2.1.1.0, so at least it matchs your Admintool

Where did you find "data-model-cmd.cmd" ? There isn't a single file with that name inside the Admintool 12.2.1.1.0 install ...

You can try by running "datamodel.cmd" which is located inside <install path of 12.2.1.1.0 Admintool>/bi/bitools/bin

SasDutta

Yes the version is v607

There is no such file datamodel.cmd in my C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\bi\bitools\bin location

Do you have the folder at least? What does it contains?

Are you really using 12.2.1.1.0 of Admintool?

Because "data-model-cmd.cmd" is the old name of the script as used in 12.2.1.0.0, and the file also was in a different folder. It has been renamed and moved to be consistent from 12.2.1.1.0, so it looks like you are using a wrong version of Admintool (12.2.1.0.0).

SasDutta

Yes, my admin tool version is 12.2.1.0.0.

Do I need to install 12.2.1.1.0 then in order to successfully upload?

Thanks

So you have 2 installs or just one and it's the 12.2.1.0.0 ?

Your Admintool version must always match the server version, so yes, you need 12.2.1.1.0 Admintool to work on a 12.2.1.1.0 server. You can have multiple Admintool installed one next to the other as long as they are in different "oracle home".

SasDutta

Initially it was my bad. Let me try with 12.2.1.1.0 version. I will keep you posted.

Thanks again for your help.
