Dashboards 4.0 (SP02) The datasource cannot be generated for the specififed

46 Views

I am using a clean install of BIP 4.0 that had SP02 bundled in to it. I am using the same version of Crystal Reports for Enterprise, the client tools, and Dashboards 4.0. I used the IDT to convert efashion to a unx universe. I can use that universe with both CRE and Webi. I can build and run queries and build reports. However, when I try to use it with Dashboards 4.0, I get an error. Right now, it's the only UNX universe I have. Once I select that universe as my datasource, I get the following error message: Universe [long string, looks like a SID) not found.(XLS000006). Then that same error string is repeated with the additional message The dataSource cannot be generated for the specified dataSource name "eFashion".

I have only been able to find this exact error message in one other place. That's in this thread on explorer in the Main Workspaces page:

https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/thread/15557

There's no resolution. I don't even know where to start other than trying to build or convert some additional UNX universes and seeing if the error is replicated.

If anyone has an ideas on this, it would be greatly appreciated.
