Cognos Controller 8.2 Prob
Jan 25, 2008
Hi
I have an installation of Cognos Controller 8.2. The installation of application seems to be all 100%.I can create blank SQL database use the application to upgrade the tables but as soon as I populate the database with data and try to optimise from the application there is an issue. It gives me the error below:
Standard error
Number 5
Source: Frango dircect.Optimise.DeleteTempFox#controllerProxyClie nt
Description: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException
server was unable to process request-->System.Security.Security Exception: Permission Denied
I have checked permissions on the database and all is fine "fastnet" is added as the DB owner and the SQL instance is 100%, Can anyone please shed some light on this.

Is it possible for RS to connect to a Cognos cube?
If so, where can I find information on it especially how security within cognos is evaluated/verified.

We are trying to investigate the ETL tools available in the market and have narrowed down to two
COGNOS - ETL (Data Manager Tool)
Microsoft - SSIS
Is there a comparison study out there which would help us in this process. Also a list of things we need to look out for in a ETL tool will also help.
Thanks

Hi all - just wondering if anyone could give me an idea of how arduous this task would be (migrating Cognos Data Manager scripts to SSIS). I realize it wont be a trivial endeavour, but wondered how much of a headstart having the initial validated Cognos catalog would be to this project (or would it be pretty much useless?)
Thanks

Hi,
We are having performance issue (too slow) compiling cubes utilizing Cognos over SqlServer database. The driver used is Microsoft Sql Server (OLE DB). Is that the right driver to be used?
Any idea what could be the problem?
Thanks

I am a Cognos developer (10 years) and am frustrated with the apparent lack of MSAS ability to replicate Cognos measure scope / allocation features.
I have built three cubes, Sales Info, Store Count, and Date Count and wrapped these into a virtual cube (Sales Reporting). Both the Store Count and Date Count cubes have just a single dimension and a single measure each (Distinct counts of Stores and of Days respectively), this is my attempt at replicating the use of several fact queries with differing scope in Cognos Transformer. In my virtual cube I wish the distinct counts to be allocated constantly within dimensions that are out of scope. For instance if I have product categories as rows and my measures as columns then I wish to see the total number of stores on each row and the number of days in the date range so that I can calculate a few ratio's. I do not wish to see the number of stores that sold products in each category or the number of days products in that category were sold, which is what I see if I use distinct count measures in a cube with the exact same dimensionality.
All that I have been able to achieve is something similar to Cognos's 'do not allocate', zero's appear down the list of categories in out of scope dimensions.
TIA

Hi. We've got hundreds of Cognos reports and catalogs and we'd like to convert them to SSRS reports and models. Is there a tool to do this? We're converting our reporting to SSRS and need help. Thanks.

Good day all
I am unable to crosstab different alternate hierarchies of an MSAS cube from a single dimension, I'm using Cognos Powerplay (7.3 web and client) to browse the data. v 7.1 displays the same behaviour.
When I try to create the crosstab the display replaces both rows and columns to the alternate path, it overwrites the original path. Can anyone tell me if this is a Cognos issue or an Analysis services one and if there is any way around it. The only solution I have at the moment is to bodge it by creating seperate dimensions for each alternate hierarchy however this is ugly and difficult to use.
Regards
Mike

Arnie I have sql express, 2003 R2 as a domain controller, a laptop I use as a remote connection to the server. What I want to accomplish is to connect to a website using the server as a branch headquarters type of connections. I was told to look into using sharepoint services. I noticed my server has this service. Can't I use sql in this type of senario. I want to be able to have content uploaded to the web site by verious employees then have that content scanned and cleaned if needed and made available for my server. And from there I would have what I need to continue my publishing the content.

Hello,
I have been told by DBA's that you should never put SQL Server on Domain controller.
Can any one give me good (VALID) reason why I should not do that?

I heard that is said that MSQ SQL 2000 doesn't work correctly with raid (for example raid 5)
I have my application in 2 companies. The first one with not a raid controller (even though the computer has a raid controller) executes a backup when no users are online in more than 8 minuter and the file of the database backup is 3,5 GB. The memory of the computer is 2GB.
In the other company when more than 20 users work in the database with a raid controller the backup is occured in 2,6 minutes and the database backup file is more than 6 GB. The memory of this computer is 4 GB.
What is your opinion?
Is this rumor true?
Do you suggest I should apply raid 5 to the first server?
Regards,
Manolis

I have a problem with OLAP running on a Server that is domain controller, the problems is that after the Server was promoted to Domain controller, all users are allowed to see all databases and cubes, I did the same test on another server and found same problem after upgrading to domain controller.
I already tried demoting the server as domain controller to member server, but did not work.
Anyone knows how to revert this thanks,
Ronnet :mad:

One last question ( for today)...
The recomindation to not install SQL express on a Domain Controller. Is there a specific technical reason or is it just the general don't use the DC has a Terminal server / sql server / application server line of thought?
The reason I ask is we have been using SQL 2000 on a W2k3 server configured as a DC as well as for Terminal Services. (yes I am aware of the security risks) but in a small network with 5 or less ft clients and 30 thin, I can't justify a seperate DC and App server.

I have 2 questions, the first one is more of a DC/AD issue, but I don't think there is a forum for that. But that question leads directly into my other question which involves SQL Server. I hope someone can give me some feedback.
We have a small network of about 12 users, and we are running SBS 2003 as our DC and Exchange server. We are going to start doing a lot of heavy lifting with data so we got another box to run Server 2003 Standard and SQL Server 2005 Standard. But now it's been suggested that we also install a second DC on the new SQL box. I am opposed because a DC should be on it's own box, and the SQL Server will need all of the available resources. I don't really think we need a second domain controller anyway, considering we have such a small office and good backups.
So my questions are: does anyone have an opinion as to whether or not we really need a second domain controller in our 12 person Small Business Server environment. I'm thinking there wouldn't be a whole lot of benefit. We certainly don't need it to share the load, and a SBS dc cannot give up it's FSMO roles so i don't see how a second dc would be able to properly serve as a failover should the first one go down.
My second question is: what kind of impact on the SQL Server would there be by installing a DC? I know it's not Microsoft recommended to have them on the same box.
Thanks,
-Rick

I have a guy who wants me to move his databases to an external drive. Hardware is my major weakness and I usually think I am McGyver when I can swap out a RAM board in my home PC. Whenever guys in the office start talking hardware, I go hide in the bathroom.
I know I have read that this is a very bad idea in some book and a few message board threads. This guy is going to use SCSI and it is going to be attached to the same controller as his other disks. I know he should have a battery backup for the drive especially if it employs write caching and that it should be formatted to NTFS and not FAT32.
I googled echnettedBOLedMSDNed this for 2 hours yesterday because I remember reading something about disc controllers and external drives and SQL Server being a recipe for disaster but I could not find anything to back me up.
Any words of wisdom or advice?

We have a Dell 6450 quad 1.6MHz, 4GB RAM running SQL 2000 on Win 2000server with 2 PERC3/QC cards. Server has 4 internal drives configuredas two raid-1 drives (OS and SQL logs). Server has 7 more drives inexternal drive rack for RAID-5 SQL data. We did not have a UPSavailable for server at installation so I set cache as write-through,even though should not matter since it writes back at restart right?.I am planning on switching back to write-back cache and was wonderinghow do users run this setting and any problms/caveats? How do I tellif the PERC cards are mirrored? Or does one PERC card run 4 internaldrives and other card run raid5? How much performance boost do youget from using write-back? What are the recommended settings for readcache (readahead, adaptive etc)? Can you post some reference websites? Thanks P

I want to install SQL Express 2K5 on a lightly used second Windows 2003 SP1 DC. I know about the warning not to do this type of install. However, the group is small and their budget does not allow for another server just for one application. With that being said, the error message I keep getting is "can't create local groups......" (I know that you do not have local groups with AD). So, is there a work around to this issue or can someone point me in the right direction as how to install on a domain controller? Thanks in advance for your time!!!

Hello everyone, I have searched the forum regarding this topic and have found numerous good threads about installing SQL Express on a DC. My question is, I am assuming that if installing SQL Express on a Domain Controller is not recommended, that installing the MSDE 2000 on a Domain Controller is not recommended either?
Thanks in advance to all replies!

Hi
I have a customer that was using Sql 2005 Express on a W2k3 server. They then decided to turn the server in to a second domain controller. When they did this Sql Express stopped working, I'm guess because the account the service was running as nolonger existed (Network Service account). Because of this they demoted it back to just a member server, but still the sql express service wouldn't start.
When I look at their server now I have noticed that the Sql2005$ accounts Sql express created during installation are all missing.
What I want to do now is set the Sql express setvice to use a domain account (using the SqlServer configuration manager), but I'm concerned that because the sql2005$ groups are missing things won't run as expected.
Should I be worried about these accounts?
What would happen when it becomes a domain controller anyway, won't these local account disappear and hence my new sqlexpress service account wouldn't have permission to the sql server data folders??
Thanks for your help

I have SQL 2005 installed in a virtual (ESX) environment with a separate DC. Every minute or so an event shows up in the Application Event Log that says:
Type: Failure Audit
User: dgtestdc1$
Computer: sql1
Source: MSSQLSERVER
Category: (4)
Event ID: 18456
Description:
Login failed for user 'dgtestdc1$'. [Client: <ip address>]
Data includes: SQL1 master
Any idea what is causing this and how to fix it?
Thanks,

SQL Server 2005 SP2, installed as a default instance at the domain controller.
SSIS connection failed with the message
Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum)
The RPC server is unavailable.
No firewalls, client and server in the same subnet, ping is ok.
I suspect the issue is similar to described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940232
I've given the user all the rights to DCOM MsDTSServer, but I cannot include him to the local "Distributed COM users" group because the domain controller doesn't have local group at all.
I have included the user into the "domain admins" group, after that user got a connection. But this is not good, you know what I mean. Does any other solution exists, without reinstallation SQL Server to another server or giving the administrator's rights to the user?
Thank you.

I am currently runinng Sql Server 2000 on a Windows 2003 domain controller. I cannot access my local sql server using windows authentication. All i receive is a cannot generate SSPI context error. I understand this is probably related to a security policy issue on the domain controller. Also Sqlserveragent service will not remain running and shutdowns immediately after it is started. This also produces an SSPI context error in the error log. If anyone can help with my configuartion of windows server 2003 such that sql server will recognize a valid sysadmin role for my domain admin account it would be greatly appreciated.

I've just got RS Enterprise Edition.
Installed it in a Test Server, ok.
Installed it in a DEV server, having some errors.
My DEV server is an "ALL in 1" server, which is also a Domian Controller.
While Test Server is not a DC.
The installation was succesful but when I open RS Manager thru the web, it gives me a ASP.NET error:
Access to the path "D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLReporting ServicesReportManagerin" is denied.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path "D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLReporting ServicesReportManagerin" is denied.
ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.
To grant ASP.NET write access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.
I tried doing everything I can possible think of from the error message advice, including adding rights to ASPNET user from ISS to that particular folder...no success.
What I'm suspecting is I can't install RS in a DC box. But I can't find this info anyway in the web.
Anyone can point me to the correct direction or any advice?

I have observed that a temporary loss of a domain controller can causeproblems creating new ado connections between a client machine runningado and a separate sql server machine that are members of the domain.I understand why this happens when creating connections with windowsauthentication. What is a mystery is that it also sometimes effectsnew connections that use "sql authentication". Below is a descriptionof my test scenario.a. Setup 3 machines.i. one domain controller machine. windows 2000 based. I have triedboth a regular domain setup and a domain setup in compatibility mode.ii. one sql server machine that is a member of the domain. windows2000.iii. one client machine running an ado test program that communicateswith the sql server machine. I have tried both 2000 and xp.b. Start your test ado program and create a connection.c. Fire a query.d. It should work.e. Unplug the network cord on the domain controller.f. Create a new connection and fire a new connection about a minute orso after.g. It should work. Apparently the client caches account informationfrom the domain controller for a certain amount of time. The timeseems to be shorter by default in xp than 2000.h. Wait 20 minutes or more.i. Create another new connection. You will notice a timeout error.If your using windows authentication the timeout will happen 100% ofthe time. That is to be expected. If your using sql authenticationthe timeout seems to happen about 50% of the time. I can't explain itother than some strange Microsoft bug. I speculate that it may besome bug with the way ado caches connections. Perhaps a previouslysetup windows authentication connection gets reused by a request for asql authentication connection. However I haven't been able to proveit.Any insight you can offer would be appreciated. I also have a testprogram you can use to reproduce this behavior if you are interested.Thanks,Frank
