Cross- domain Policy File Specification error-New installtion BO 4.0 FP3

[Former Member]

it's a new installation-BO 4.0 FP3  we did recently on Redhat linux.

We are getting below error when try to use any dashboard using universe

"To access external data, add a cross-domain policy file to the

external data web server.

For more information, on the Adobe website, see the article "Cross-

domain Policy File Specification".

If the problem persists, contact the file creator or your system

administrator."

although the crossdomin.xml files looks fine as per below:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">

<cross-domain-policy>

   <site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="*"/>   

   <allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*" secure="false" />

   <allow-access-from domain="*" secure="false" />

</cross-domain-policy>

Hi Sudhir,

If you are logging in with IP address to BI launch pad, you might receive this error.

You can do the following

1. Go to CMC

2. Click on Applications

3. At the bottom of the page, you will see Web Services, right click on Properties

4. On the window, you'll see Access URL. Check what is entered there. If you are loggin into BI Launch pad other than this field, you will be receiving this error. Either you change it or login to BI Launch pad with the hostname entered there.

Hi Sudhir,

Kindly place this crossdomain file and restart the App server..

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">

<cross-domain-policy>

   <allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*" secure="false" />

   <allow-access-from domain="*" secure="false" />

</cross-domain-policy>

Are you using Query browser to build your dashboard? If yes, how many connections are showing the error message?

You might not have proper rights? Do you have an administrator rights or something else?

Is the object FuiFq0_G2wMAnOAAABCnuYkCACFeEYaI a universe? If it is then, check to see if you can use it with other tools like WebI without any problem.
