Running Pentaho BI Server 5.0.1 on existing Tomcat 6 - Windows Platform

$

I've managed to get Pentaho BI Server 5.0.1 for Windows to run on my local Tomcat 6. Steps I took are:
1.Stop your tomcat instance.
2.Copy data, licenses, logs, pentaho-solutions, third-party-tools from \biserver-ce folder to C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation (location where I installed my local Tomcat) folder.
3.Copy pentaho and pentaho-style folder from \biserver-ce\tomcat\webapps to C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps folder.
4.Edit C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\pentaho\WEB-INF\web.xml file and change port details(if required) and location of Quartz db:
a.http://localhost:8080/pentaho/
b.<param-value>sampledata@../../Apache Software Foundation/data/hsqldb/sampledata,hibernate@../../Apache Software Foundation/data/hsqldb/hibernate,quartz@../../Apache Software Foundation/data/hsqldb/quartz</param-value>
</context-param>
5.Start your tomcat instance.

How to use pentaho user console in Iframe

$

hi,
I work on a java webapp that embedded pentaho user console through iframe.
The pentaho version is 5.0.1-stable.
The code looks like this:
<iframe id="pentahoframe" src="http://my.domain.com/pentaho/Home?userid=admin&password=admin" ></iframe>


To avoid cross domain problems I configured pentaho behind a reverse proxy so the web app
and pentaho are (for the browser) in the same domain (my.domain.com).

When I load the page that contains the iframe, I can view pentaho user console already authenticate in it.
All seems to wokr fine , but wen I click the button "Browse Files" nothing happens.

Using Firebug console I can see this error:
TypeError: window.top.mantle_setPerspective is not a function window.top.mantle_setPerspective('browser.perspective')

By analyzing the code of Pentaho i can see that there are many places where it is used the call "window.top"

In the iframe this statement refers not to pentaho window but the main webapp window.
This happens because It is needed to use the same domain for web app and Pentaho
In other words the statement refered to the windows of the webapp page and not the pentaho page so it fails to load funzions.

Reading the posts on the forum I have seen that many people use iframes for the integration of Pentaho.


Is there a workaround to avoid this behavior or am I mistaken something?
thanks

Hi everyone,

I'm new in pentaho's world and I wanted to use a parameter to use my regex.

It's working when I try my regex with the field 'test regex' of a step Regex Evaluation.
But it's not working when I'm trying to run the kettle.

I'm getting this from logs :
ERROR (version 5.0.6, build 1 from 2014-04-26_17-32-54 by buildguy) : Step [test regex.0] failed to initialize!

I'm already using parameters for other fields and it's working fine.

Strategy for executing only those transformations in a parameter

$

Hi!

I'm wondering if there is such a feature out-of-the-box, that allows us to debug certain job entries without having to define mock values with local parameters and execute the transformation from inside.
I'd like to define parameters at jobe level and share all the environtment, but being able to execute single transformations.

Is there any feature ready for that?

If not, is there any easy way to get all transformation names in the job so I can evaluate them against a parameter, and execute only the indicated transformations?

Thanks!

Hi ,

Attached is the sample xml file which I want to read and store by splitting tags into different tables in database.
The problem I am facing is that tag Parent_Tag has unique identifier attribute code . There are multiple Parent_Tag tags in e.g. i have created only single. Tags REF and BAL are immediete children of tag Parent_Tag . So I can use attribute code from tag Parent_Tag in these 2 tags namely REF and BAL . I am creating database tables of each of the tags and specifying columns as attributes in tables. Now I want code attribute from tag Parent_Tag to be linked in all the tables. The other 3 tags CEREF , OTR and REV are child tags of tag BAL . I want to populate code attribute from tag Parent_Tag in these 3 tables as well . Can someone please help to achieve the same. Sample ktr as a solution would be of a great help.

Merging two data sets

$
0

Hello,

I have a problem which I do not see how to solve correctly... I have two data sources (to be exact a pair of Excel) which give me some values by month, but by reasons best left to the customer, half of the months are in one and the other half in the other.

I need to mix rows from both to form a single row. Besides, the problem gets even worse, since there are two fields which are indeed present in both sources. Let me explain it better:

Excel 1 fields: Origin, Destination, January, February ... June
Excel 2 fields: Origin, Destination, July, August ... December

What I need is mixing both sets so that I have: Origin, Destination, January ... December.

I know that the first row of the first Excel pairs with the first row with the second (they are ordered in the same way), Therefore, I can discard safely the Origin, Destination fields of one of the Excels because those fields' values are duplicated... but how can I append both rows so that they are seen as if I am reading them from a single Excel?

I really hope to have explained myself... the problem would be solved by having one coreectly formatted Excel, but right know I have no grounds to tell my bosses that this can not be done...

Thanks in advance to anybody which can provide any advice...
Regards.

CTools installation problem

$

I am using Pentaho CE 5 on windows. I would like to use CTools but I can't make them show up in the File -> New menu to use them.
Being behind a proxy, I can not use the Marketplace plugin, so I have tried a manual installation.

  • First, I tried to use the ctools-installer.sh. I have run the following command line in cygwin (wget and unzip are installed):

Code:

./ctools-installer.sh -s  /cygdrive/d/Users/[user]/Mes\  Programmes/pentaho/biserver-ce/pentaho-solutions/ -w  /cygdrive/d/Users/[user]/Mes\  programmes/pentaho/biserver-ce/tomcat/webapps/pentaho/
The script starts, asks me what module I want to install, and begins the downloads.

For each module, I get an output like (set -x added to the script) :


Quote:

+ echo -n 'Downloading CDA...'
Downloading CDA...+ wget -q --no-check-certificate http://www.webdetails.pt/ficheiros/c...6/5.x/dist.zip -O .tmp/cda/dist.zip
+ '[' '!' -z '' ']'
+ rm -f .tmp/dist/marketplace.xml
+ unzip -o .tmp/cda/dist.zip -d .tmp
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of .tmp/cda/dist.zip or
.tmp/cda/dist.zip.zip, and cannot find .tmp/cda/dist.zip.ZIP, period.
+ chmod -R u+rwx .tmp
+ echo Done
Done
+ '[' 1 -eq 0 ']'

I checked the dist.zip files dowloaded by the script and they are all empty. It seems that wget cannot fetch the zip files, and therefore the installation fails (I cannot see any new tools in the menus).
When I try to get any webpage through wget, it fails. I think it is because of the proxy. Here is my .wgetrc file, located in my user's cygwin home folder:

Quote:

use_proxy=on
http_proxy=http://[url]:[port]
https_proxy=http://[url]:[port]
proxy_user=[user]
proxy_password=[password]
Any idea how I could make this work ?

Thanks

Date Dimension with One Table

$
0
0
Hi,

I have only one table with data and one field is a timestamp (2014-06-12 00:42:12.5)

i'm trying to create a dimension based on that field (date), but to group the records on year or month.

So the result will be something like that

2014-04 5
2014-05 10
2014-06 6

or something like that
2014 21

but because of different times for every record i get 21 different rows with count 1 for every row....

I dont' have access to database schema to create another table (like in examples date_time).

Is there any way to create the Mondrian schema with the date dimension based only in that table ???

Thanks
Kostas

Doing something good (for a change?) - Part 2

I absolutely love the fact that I'm writing a part two of a story that I reported a few months back about the dashboard we offered to the Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research organization for them to measure the effectiveness of the charity events.

Well, I just heard back from Owen yesterday:

Hey Pedro(s), Nuno, Paulo & the rest of team


We entered the Bikeathon dashboard into for an industry award. The best use of Performance Reporting and Data Visualisation at the Institute of Fundraising Insight Awards. The award ceremony was last night and I’m really happy to say we won the gold award. We couldn’t have done this without you (you never saw my pre-webdetails dashboard, no one will again). I’ve attached the award booklet, open source and Pentaho get a good mention but I’m sorry that they’ve edited out Webdetails (you were prominent in the nomination).


Excitingly, of the 15 Gold awards we’re one of 4 that also been shortlisted for the Best Use of Insight at the bigger awards in July. So that’s the dashboard for us up against any research project from charities more than 10x as big as us.


We’ll be tweeting/shouting about it later today, if you/Pentaho want to put anything out give me a shout and I can help.


Thanks again everyone, your work has made an impact on the event and having an impact beyond it too


Cheers,
This made my day! I immediately ran to see his twitter account and it was there:


The Beating Blood Cancer organization really came out first in the Insight and Fundraising Awards 2014, and are now moving to the National Awards "against" the big guys!


(and I really need to tone down my extremely competitive personality, cause I found myself thinking "Go LLR team!, let's beat Unicef and Save the Children!", which made me feel instantly silly! :p )

And it's good to see this kind of initiatives scaling out. Dan Keeley - Codek - is also doing some pro-bono work with them and Pentaho offered the organization a license for the Enterprise Edition!

Keep doing the great work guys!

Parameters to Transformation

Hi,

I have a transformation file which accepts a csv. This csv is formatted and passed into a Apache Kafka Node.

I need the ability to change the "Filename" of the csv step and the "Topic Name" of the Kafka Producer on the fly.( Please find attached transformation file.)
I'm using the following terminal command(Ubuntu) to run the transformation. It would be perfect if I'm able to add/change these two parameters within the command. Command is:
/home/Pentaho/Pentaho/data-integration/pan.sh -file='/home/Pentaho/Pentaho/CSV.ktr' '2014-01-01 00:00:00' '2014-01-01 00:00:00' -Level=Basic > //tmp/tr_get_command_line_arguments.err.log

Please let me know if this can be done. If not, I'm open to suggestions.

Thank All
