Data Services Designer Issue with Job Server

[Former Member]

I am on Business Objects Edge Pro using the Data Services Designer. When I try execute a job I get "The job server you have selected is not working." In addition to that when I try to make any personal change to the environment I get a BODI-1260016 error. Finally when you go to the help and about they show both the Job Engine and Job Server not responding.

I have opened up my CMC and it shows all servers enabled and functioning. I do not know where to go from here.

Thanks

Voila. I know I am a bit late to the conversation, but here was my solution. I was running Designer on my local machine. We also have Designer on the server. So I decided to remote to the server and compare settings. When the server desktop came up, good old Windows was there, announcing that BODS had changed since the last time it was run, and would I like to allow it to run (Y/N/Cancel)? Thanks, Windows. I said Yes, then went back to my local workstation, tried again to run a job, and no problem.

This has happened with other software services (scripted ftp for example) that run on servers. Seems it can happen after a Microsoft Tuesday, or after software is upgraded. Always remember to log on to the server and clear any security dialogs that are preventing your service from running. Not really a BO solution, but it was my solution. YMMV.

Hi,

is the Job Server running on the DS Host. Check by ":/svrcfg.sh"

From your Client where your DS Designer is installed, can you Ping the DS Host by IP Adress, Name and FQDN?

If you have left the Port of the JobServer with the standard Values, is the Port 3500 open in all Firewalls/Router inbetween your Client where DS Designer is installed and the DS Host?

Hi,

I am facing the same issue. If anyone knows a solution to this, pls advise.

BoE 4.0 and DS 4.0 on Red Hat Linux with Oracle 11 g Db. Designer on Windows XP or Windows 7 client systems.

When i am creating a datastore it says - The generated ABAP directory could not be verified because of the problem with Job Server. The job server inet:bosrv:3500 is not responding.

I can ping the server, I can telnet to the server via 3500, all ports open on BO DS system, All Servers running in CMC.

Pleae advise.
