Sorry for the typo there is a backslash missing in the described path. The correct path is...

%yourInstallationDirectory%Business ObjectsBusinessObjects Data Services ingrantFileAccess.bat

Jorg,

I am also facing repomanbatch.exe error while trying to install BODS 3.2 in windows 7. As suggested by you tried to to find ingrantFileAccess.bat to fix access issue you mentioned. I am not able to find such a file. Appreciate your help,

Hi All,

Any solution for above issue ...

Just try this one also:

Go to the property page of the installation file (setup.exe) and select an OS that supports BODS from the compatibility tab.

Hi rajeev,

I have successfully installed BODS on Windows 7 (32bit and 64bit) Systems with all components except the database running on the win7 system. So it definetly works for those components and since the problem persists while using an already installed db it most likely is a problem with the packaged mysql db.

Your problem is probably an access rights issue. Maybe your BODS processes run on a standard user account without permission to access the appropriate files. Run ..Business ObjectsBusinessObjects Data Services ingrantFileAccess.bat from your shell. This grants BODS file/directory access rights to the standard user.

Regards,

Jörg

what is the BODS version that you are trying to install ?

I think on windows 7 and vista you can install only Designer (client)
