I'm working on Java Pos and I'm a newbie. I need (kettle) Pentaho Data Integration in order to integrate the Java POS' database with the database in the ERP. I followed the following manual
"http://www.scribd.com/doc/19583351/Install-Guide-for-Pentaho-Business-Intelligence-BI-Suite-CE"
and I'm stuck at Part 3- Step 1. When I type localhost address in the browser, instead of getting pentaho login page i'm getting a "HTTP Status 404" error.
Do I've to change the tomcat server port or anything else? Please, help me find out the glitch in this program?
Check your server.xml to see what port is listening on. I assume when you started tomcat it started successfully? ( check the log for errors )
Use google.
Finally, if you want to use ETL/Kettle then you need to start off looking at the Spoon tool - this is the UI for building ETL. So look at that first perhaps.
(you dotn even need the BI server if all you're doing is ETL.)

I want to start playing around with databases in Java to help with my university work however I can't get SQL Server to work properly. I've installed it using the wizard and selecting 'Basic' the installing SSMS. However when launching SSMS I get Error 26. When researching this it says to make sure that the SQL Server Browser service is running. Unfortunately this is the issue, every time I try to start the service it fails.
All the fixes I've seen about this topic have been related to servers on another machine where as I am trying to run the server on my own PC. I've tried them anyway but nothing has worked so far. The only thing I can find that might give you a clue in helping me is that in the log file it says that it failed to register the SPN.
When working on my local machine, I don't usually need SQL Server browser - but my SQL Server itself isn't set up to run automatically.
You can go to services (either via window and search for 'services', or in Windows 10 open the task manager, go to the last tab 'services'). Find the 'SQL Server' service (it helps to sort by description column) and right click -> start.
If you take note of the name (default is 'MSSQLSERVER') you can start the service (e.g., in a batch file, from command line) using sc start "MSSQLSERVER" (or whatever your server instance is called).
I have a sample app and when I deploy it on the Localhost MobileFirst Server, it successfully connects to the wlapp. When I try to connect the wlapp on my remote server, it fails. After checking the logs, I found out that the URL "https://MyServerIp:Port/MyContextRoot/authorization/vl/clients/instance" is incorrect according to the URL I usually hit. I have been trying to search that where this URL generates so that I could modify it according to my need. I have highlighted the part of the URL which is incorrect.
In https://MyServerIp:Port/MyContextRoot/authorization/vl/clients/instance, the "authorization/vl/clients/instance" part is a constant and you need not change it. However the first part of the "myServerIp" and "Port" is something you need to once moving to a remote server.
To change it, you need to build the application with the correct values. See the instructions in the following user documentation topic on Build Settings and Deploy Target: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSHS8R_7.1.0/com.ibm.worklight.dev.doc/dev/c_building_and_deploying_build_settings_deploy_target.html?lang=en
I'm sure this has been answered before, but every example I try I can't seem to connect to my SQL Server.
I'm using SQL Server 2014, and the webpage is being hosted in IIS on Windows 7 x64.
I'm trying to get my webpages to build themselves recursively from information in a database, I've configured IIS to run ASP pages (I believe its classic ASP as opposed to ASP.net, but I may be wrong)
I started by looking at examples that basically returned all entries in in a particular column in a table, however when i got error messages on trying to load the page:
An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator.
If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more about this error.
I tried stripping it down to bare minimum, i.e. just opening the connection to the database.
And even then I get the same error, here are a few of the examples I tried:
Example-1
Example-2
Example-3
Firstly if anyone could tell me how to debug it further, i.e. getting proper error messages that actually tell me something useful, that would be a good start.
If there's any information I missed then please ask.
If you've given your files the extension .asp then it is Classic ASP
Do you know what version of SQL Server you're using? If it's express then you need to say so in your connection string eg Data Source=yourserveraddress\SQLEXPRESS
I recommend using the OLEDB method in Example 3 rather than the ODBC method in 1 and 2 but they should all work. This is a good resource for Connection Strings

If you follow the steps on this page you will be able to see more useful error messages

I was deploy pentaho bi server on my running tomcat server ref from here.
Now I want to create JNDI bases datasource so I login through pentaho administration console but in that web page nothing to shows users lists, user role. After googling some times I was found that change console.xml then I was changed my console.xml file as below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<console>
<solution-path>/home/pc-name/pentaho-solutions</solution-path>
<war-path>/home/pc-name/apache-tomcat-7.0.47/webapps/pentaho</war-path>
<platform-username>joe</platform-username>
<biserver-status-check-period-millis>30000</biserver-status-check-period-millis>
<homepage-url>http://www.pentaho.com/console_home</homepage-url>
<homepage-timeout-millis>15000</homepage-timeout-millis>
<!-- comma separated list of roles (no spaces) -->
<default-roles>Authenticated</default-roles>
<default-server-dir>biserver-ce</default-server-dir>
</console>
then I was stopped administration console and then again start but still it not shows me any user lists, role lists. After that I hard coded start-pac.sh as below
DIR_REL=`dirname $0`
cd $DIR_REL
DIR=`/home/pc-name/apache-tomcat-7.0.47`
cd -
. "$DIR/set-pentaho-env.sh"
setPentahoEnv "$DIR/../biserver-ce/jre"
but running at start-pac.sh it shows set-pentaho-env.sh not found but in my first steps deploying pentaho bi server on existing tomcat it not mentioned anything about set-pentaho-env.sh where to copy or set. Can any one knows how to solve this problem?
Short answer: Pentaho 5.0 doesn't have an admin console because both user roles and database connections are easily configured in the user console. It seems you just started to deploy your biserver so I suggest you upgrade to the new version and leave admin console behind. Trust me. You will like it.
Long answer: If you still wish to stay with 4.8 for some strange reason:
Don't change anything in Pac-start.bat, revert to the original version before your changes. If you need to change the default URL or port, then
find biserver-ce\tomcat\conf\server.xml
the default for pentaho user console is 8080, and the default admin console port is 8443. Change those to your preference. Once done,
find biserver-ce\tomcat\webapps\pentaho\WEB-INF\web.xml
change here:
<context-param>
<param-name>fully-qualified-server-url</param-name>
<param-value>http://localhost:8080/pentaho/</param-value>
</context-param>
then find the list of trusted Ip's and add additional trusted IP's here (this is somewhere around line 133)
<param-name>TrustedIpAddrs</param-name>
<param-value>127.0.0.1,0\:0\:0\:0\:0\:0\:0\:1(%.+)*$</param-value>
<description>Comma separated list of IP addresses of a trusted hosts.</description>
(Also covered in this article: http://wiki.pentaho.com/display/ServerDoc2x/Setting+up+trust+between+Administration+Console+and+BI+Server)
Make sure when you start the admin console, pentaho biserver is running already. Admin console will not work if the biserver is not running.
Make sure you use the correct JDK, because a wrong java configuration, or wrong java_home_path can also cause admin console to not stand up.
Really, just go with Pentaho 5.0.1.
I installed Oracle 10g express. Installation went well, But the home page is not coming up.
I can connect using sqlplus but not with Sql Developer.
I checked tnsnames.ora and listener.ora everything looks fine.
Listener is also started. I can always reinstall and see. But I thought better inquire the cause.
Regarding the home page. This is the address that comes up in browser. Localhost:8080
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
I did a netstat to see whether there is any port conflict for 8080, but that port is not in use.
Have anybody faced this issue?
Yes. It is practically a FAQ on the XE Oracle forum.
Firstly, can you connect to Oracle using
sqlplus user/pass
If so, Oracle is up an running (which appears to be your situation, but may not be for a future reader with a similar problem). If not, you can try
sqlplus / as sysdba
startup
Once Oracle is up, check that the listener can see the Oracle instance by
sqlplus user/pass#xe
If not, then either the listener is not up, or the 'listener does not know of the service'. Make sure the listener is started (lsnrctl, then start). Make sure the database is registered with the listener
sqlplus / as sysdba
alter system register;
Now you should be able to connect using the '#xe' syntax. Worthwhile verifying the embedded PL/SQL gateway is set up to use the 8080 port
select dbms_xdb.GETHTTPPORT from dual;
On Windows you can use netstat -ab to see if tnslsnr.exe is listening on the port.
Then I'd suggest looking at browser settings (specifically any proxy settings that might be forwarding your request to a machine that has no idea what to do with it) and firewalls (which could well be set to ignore or hide any access to the port).
I had the same problem. I tried this and it sorted out my problem...
1. goto start->run
2.type services.msc and hit enter
3.In the applet that opened, scroll down(in right pane) to figure out the option of "OracleServiceXE" and right click on it. 4. In general tab do->>> startup type "Automatic" and click the "start button".
5. Repeat step 4. for the option "OracleXETNSListener".
close the window.
now, i hope, the problem should be solved....
Check your windows firewall,If it is on it blocks the opening of the homepage.Either you shut down the windows firewall or allow these following ports :
1521: Oracle database listener
2030: Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server
8080: HTTP port for Oracle XML DB and the Oracle Database XE graphical user interface
See software requirements in the below URL:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/install.102/b25143/toc.htm#BABEBCDB
It worked for me!
Try this ( I'm assuming Windows system )
using
netstat
without anyother parameter would tell you if port 8080 is already open.
Also you can try this:
telnet localhost 8080
If the server answers ( the screen goes blank [or black] ) then the server is up and running.
Try using your hostname instead of localhost.
See if you're using a proxy and not skipping the local addresses.
Also you can see what's the executable that starts the home page and see if it could start successfully.
Thanks for the response guys.
I finally figured out how to solve the issue, but not really the root cause.
Problem 1 - Can not login to oracle admin console.
It was the problem with not adding 127.0.0.1 in the IE intranet sites.
Go to tools>internet options>security>local intranet sites>advanced>
add http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex in the list.
It works fine after this.
But if I go back to the same place again and see the sites, I cant find the url I added sometimes back... Dont know why that is happening. May be some company security is messing up.
Anyways the admin console is now coming up.
Problem 2 - Cannot connect using SQL Developer.
After I did the fix for problem 1, this is also magically working.
I still don't know how security settings in IE affects SQL Developer?
Any comments on this?
hey guys one important fact if u r using IE7 (explorer7) then u wd face certain problem in using 10g, such as not displaying home page.
For Windows 8 simply click on Get Started With OracleXE.... When internet explorer opens up, select the View on the desktop option in the Page View icon (icon with a wrench).
You should now be able to view your page.
I had a similar problem, I was able to connect to SQLPLUS using terminal but on access in browser as it was showing error as you have described. So, I went back to terminal and mounted my database using
startup
and it resolved my problem. This might be the case.
