URL to iview

[Former Member]

Hi

I have a BI EP Netweaver 7.0 .

I have created a BWReport Iview .

My problem is that I am not able to access this iview via URL.

When I preview the Iview it gives me the following url:

http://colubw.cc.co.il:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtmode/preview/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fc...

when trying to access this url from explorer I get an exception.

I also tried accessing this Iview using URL:

http://colubw.cc.co.il:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.ip.bi.web.portal.integration.lau...

But I get server Error : Error: Internal error. No esid found.

I find no way to access pcd via external URL.

For any of your suggestions I will be greatful.

Hi

Thanks to the blog,

I have added the end user option to the iView Authorization .

now I dont get the same page, but i still get an exception :

500 Internal Server Error

BEx Web Application

Failed to process request; contact your system administrator

Error Summary

Exception occured while processing the current request; this exception cannot be handled by the application or framework

If the information on this page does not help you locate and correct the cause of the problem, contact your system administrator

To facilitate analysis of the problem, keep a copy of this error page Hint: Most Web browsers allow you to select all content, and copy and paste it into an empty document (such as in an email or simple text file)

Root Cause

The initial exception that caused the request to fail was:

Error: Internal error. No esid found.

Log ID 0015600445FC005E00000059000073A0000463BB95F2F747

I guess it is the same exception...

Michael can u give some more details about the pcd inspector.

R there any definitions that makes this hidden folders.

Thanks

You can find it from system admin -> support -> pcd -> pcd inspector. It is a low level tool that can corrupt your PCD, but it might be useful for looking for things

Hi Michael

Did u look at the exception?

It writes that a view can not be found and gives a path that I did not enter.

It adds some directories to the path i gave.

Can u explain this behavior?

Thanks,

Nitsan

Yes, I saw that path. There are someimes hidden items in the PCD which you will only see with something like the PCD Inspector tool...

[Former Member]

Exactly!

[Former Member]

Strange. Does it work for an administrator?

[Former Member]

check the options mentioned below

Hi Michael

When I click on the iview in the quick info I get:

Id: pcd:portal_content/cocacola/iviews/YNK_ANAL_92

Thanks

So, if you preview it works OK? And if you take the URL from the preview and use it as a logged on it doesn't work?

Hi

I get the exception even if I log the portal before browsing.

This is the exception from the trace:

The strange thing is that in the path that was written to the trace another directory has been added,

A directory that i didn't mention in the path: /com.sap.ip.bi/iViews.

Any idea?

When you click on the iView, what does it say down in the Quick Info area?

[Former Member]

Thanks Michael & Shrikant

But this does not help me .

I still get the exception when trying to access.

Any other suggestions?

Nitsan

[Former Member]

What sort of message? Does it also happen if you have logged on to the portal and enter the same URL in your browser? Are you prompted to logon?

[Former Member]

Can you please post detailed exception ?

[Former Member]

Can you please change the iView Authentication Schema property to Anonymous.

[Former Member]

This can happen if the iView has been protected so that only logged in users can access it. One workaround that some people mention is to set the auth level on the iView to anonymous.
