Bi Publisher: "Unauthorized Access: Either you do not have the privilege, or you have not signed in

Question

HI All ..

Obiee ver. 11.1.1.7.x

This is a brand new Obiee set-up . The rpd and webcatalog were deployed from lower env.

Can login to Analytics / EM/ and Console

But in BI Publisher , getting this error when trying to login through weblogic user

"Unauthorized Access: Either you do not have the privilege, or you have not signed in

I know there is a doc.. but does this applies here?

Navigating to BI Publisher from OBIEE 11g Fails With Error: "Unauthorized Access: Either you do not have the privilege, or you have not signed in" (Doc ID 1942564.1)

In Analytics I can login with weblogic user but the permission option is disabled..

Thanks for having this ..

Regards

GUID refresh first.

User folder purge second.

CatMan....well not really because even in CatMan you can't change the right on /users directories

Thanks .. this is one and last shot move ..

let me explain things ..

the source env is single node and we decided to move to brand new env which is  active-active set-up - 2 servers and each has all the obiee components running .

rpd and catalog locations are on a shared path accessible to both.

there are only 3 users..BIsystemuser  weblogic and OracleSystemuser

I just have deployed the rpd and coped the catalog on the shared path and then refreshed the guids .

Since this has 2 bi servers , I updated the guids like this

update the NQSConfig.ini file on both server.

update the instanceconfig.xml on only node 1 server. (not node 2 server)

start the biserver on both nodes and the ps server on node 1 .

wait for biserver to stop .

the stop the ps server

revert those changes and start all the services again.

I am able to login to weblogic console , analytics , em with weblogic user  but not to BI publiser for which I am getting this error;

in analytics I can see the shared folder and reports in there but cannot access them

that's all..

regards

Not wanting to annoy going back to something we discussed yesterday .... but isn't it worth to include security in your migration? (yes, you said you didn't want to look at that now, but ... you see that you have issues with permissions).

What's the context of your operation? Is that a one-shot move or you are setting up your process and will do that kind of deployments frequently?
