Remove Sample Reports from pentaho community edition - pentaho

Can anyone help me with how to remove the sample documents eg.Steelwheel etc. from pentaho community edition. I found a resource here but when I do it, it causes the bi server to crash. So am not sure if its the right thing to do. Has anyone achieved this successfully, help

Deleting the sample folders in the Solution Repository should be enough.
You should also delete the SampleData and SteelWheels data sources using the Data Source Manager.

How do I deploy the data to the %programdata% directory when compiling a executebal in vb.net

I created.exe file and installed it on my machine.When I insert data I get an error "Failed to update database "Database.mdf" because database file is read-only". I am able to view the data but cannot insert the data. I am using local sql database and visual studio 2019. My connection string is:
Data Source=(LocalDB)\MSSQLLocalDB;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\HovedDatabase.mdf;Integrated Security=True
I have read a lot of topics on the forum about this and so fare I have changed the settings to the db in the SSMS, so that it is not longer a permisson issue.
But it still gives the same error. One thing I havent tried, because of lack of skill, is deploying the data to the %programdata% directory. It looks like this advice is given regarding this issue. So anybody have a idea on how to do this in Visual Studio. I am pretty new to this so dont be afraid to give detailed instructions :) Thank you in advance :)

How to share by url link a Saiku query

could someone tell me how to share a query saiku by url? When I try it on another computer using "open in new window" url sends me to the initial screen of pentaho server. I tried using:
http://localhost:8080/pentaho/api/repos/path:mysaikuquery.saiku/run
but it disables the edit functions, and i need them.
Thank you very much in advance!!

I think it's a saiku issue, not pentaho's.
Why don't you ask to the author or the community. Unlike Pentaho they do not charge for an answer.
There's not a very active community around pentaho and their plugins like saiku. I have posted it in saiku community forums as well. But to tell that saiku have nothing to be related with pentaho...really I dont understand your comment, when the people who works with Saiku is used to use Pentaho suite too.
I found a temporal solution accidentally, so I'll share it: in Pentaho console, right mouse click on the tab with the saiku project opened (after have ejecuted it on browse file of course), and on the new menu choose the option "Create a deep link"...copy and paste it where you need it. It works with users and roles, so you will need such credentials to be able to view and modify the query to the cube. So it's perfect to share projects with clients or non admin users.

Can you try with edit instead of run?
I'm not sure it will work or not, I have worked long back ago

How to make multitenancy with pentaho

I'm using pentaho EE 6.1, and I'd like to setup an data source specific for an user, I'v seen in this link https://help.pentaho.com/Documentation/6.1/0R0/070/Multi-Tenancy
but I don't undersand how to make it.
Some help please.
Question is not clear.
But i had this same issue sometime back and i am sharing my research and understanding.
In Data integration we have option called parameterised connection and in this way you can achieve multitenancy but due to pentaho architecture of bi server we can't achieve the same in bi server.
you can achieve this in bi server through stored procedure this is one of the way.

Deploy a mondrian schema in pentaho 5.1 without schema workbench

I have a question, in pentaho 5.1, how can I deploy a cube without using the schema workbench? I'm kind of newbie in Pentaho.
Is there a cmd line? Java code? Or something like...
Thanks a lot!
You can do that in the User Console.
There is a menu Manage Data source... There you can upload your xml and refer to a database connection for it.
First, I suppose you have installed BA Server and have made at least fact table.
In case you don't know what the fact table is, or someone else is reading this answer, you can find brief explanation here.
Of course, it's better to have full Star Schema. You cannot create Snow Flake inside Pentaho User Console. You can create it with Pentaho Schema Workbench or by manually edit mondarian.xml.
Make sure that your JDBC driver is inside BA Server driver directory. Look! Open Pentaho User Console. It's by default at localhost:8080/pentaho or yourdomain.name:8080/pentaho and login as administrator
File -> New -> Data Source
Choose Data source
Type Choose fact table and define connections to dimensions (if exists)
Choose to modify cube on the end of data source wizard

SharePoint 2010 Workflow

We have Oracle 11g base HR System. Now our requirement is to make some workflow on SharePoint 2010. So we comeup to the decission that we will make webpart to insert, update and retrive records from Oracle and then we will start workflow on that.
So my question was, is it possible to start workflow without is list or document library. If yes than how can I get some idea on that. Some URL where I can find more details.
Kindly let me know if I am going in wrong direction. Please help on that.
You can have site level workflows in SharePoint 2010 which can run without list or a library.
See:
http://www.sharepointbriefing.com/spcode/article.php/3910746/Using-SiteLevel-Workflows-in-SharePoint-2010.htm
However, there is not much information available in the question to evaluate weather its the right option or not. It depends on what is the workflow requirement etc.
