12c: Catalog object priviledge validation failed

Carsten Weber

Hi guys,

first of all I want to state my versions I am using for the upcoming scenario / question / problem:

OBIEE: Version 12.2.1.4.0 (including the latest security patches)

OBI Administration Tool: Version 12.2.1.3.0

Server OS: Linux RedHat Enterprise Edition 7.9

Somehow since we have updated our Oracle BI (in July 2022) we receive the following error, when trying to save a new analysis whithin Answers:

In the past there was no problem regarding the user previlledges of this central system account.

Does anyone know how to help on this topic?

The account actually does have admistrative access within our environment and there has not been any problem regarding the aquired task in the past.

Best regards and thanks in advance

Carsten

Two different things.

a) Never ever use a different version of the Admin Tool with your server.

b) The HTML issue can come up if you don't have the correct rights as in "privilege" plus "the required instanceconfig.xml parameter is set"

Perfect! Thanks for your guidance Christian!

I managed to get it working again by adding the following line to instanceconfig.xml:

<EnableSavingContentWithHTML>true</EnableSavingContentWithHTML>
