  • BI Server: sawserver.exe has stopped working in OBIEE 12c

    I have a OBIEE 12c installation in Windows Server 2102 R2 (but i think this solution is valid for any windows installation). Installation process was successful and everything works perfectly, but randomly the nqsserver.exe crashes: While checking BI Services I can see that OBIS and OBIPS Services are in shutdown state and when I try to start it again I keep getting different errors, like “nqsserver.exe has stopped working”:   This issue is caused by another Weblogic installation in my server and is related to Weblogic that is unable to locate to Wbem files. To solve this problem you can edit the “start.cmd” file located at the path: E:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\user_projects\domains\bi_foundation\bitools\bin\start.cmd Line which…

  • OBIEE 12c: Add page break in PDF

    When you schedule a BI Answer with BI Agent to send a report in PDF format, you often need to place a page break between two different views of the analysis. To get this you can use the CSS code: Page-break-after: always; With this CSS, the pdf exported generate a page break in the exact point you insert the CSS. In your answer enter a new Static Text view, check the box “Contain HTML Markup” and add the following HTML code: <Div style = "page-break-after: always"> </ div> Drag the view between the two sections, where you want the pagebreak. Now, if you schedule a BI Agent that sends the report in a…

  • OBIEE: Rank function

    The Rank function in OBIEE are described as follows: Syntax: RANK(expr) Description: Calculates the rank for each value satisfying the numeric expression argument. The highest number is assigned a rank of 1, and each successive rank is assigned the next consecutive integer (2, 3, 4,…). If certain values are equal, they are assigned the same rank (for example, 1, 1, 1, 4, 5, 5, 7…). But if you want to partition the rank by a specified column, you can use another syntax, not described in the tooltip: RANK(measure by attribute) For example to obtain the rank of “Product Sales” by “Fiscal Year” you can use: RANK("Fact – Product Sales".Cost by "Calendar"."Fiscal Year")…
