Chosen Plugin

$

0
Hello everybody i recently i was working with the chosen jquery plugin for the select and multi selects components. While im very pleased with the displays i have some troubles working with it.
ive followed sadakar example:
http://pentaho-bi-suite.blogspot.com...ect-input.html
but i havent figured out how to change individual components, for example when i change the width it chages the width of all the select components.

i've looked and the way to change individual selects in this way:
$('#componentID.chzn-single').css('width','200px');

but it needs the id of the component and i dont have the id of the select component in the CDE. :(

has anyone figuerd a way to do it?
Help is greatly apreciated. :)

Issues with Carte under high load conditions

$

Hi

I am trying to use Carte as a service where I am evoking mapping with a load of 3 calls every sec. I see execution time to be fine from logs the for mappings themselves but the load test timings are not good. Randomly I am seeing return the return times of 300 sec in worst cases ad service is averaging out to be 12 sec for a 1 hour test. I was thinking it might have to do with jetty instance so I have increased the concurrent listeners to 200 but also did not do any good. Is there any suggestion any one can give on how to about solving this issue.

Thanks

How To Implement A "Per Hour" Measure?

$
0
0
I've been trying to work out a way of calculate values on a "per hour" basis.

For example:
- We have a Date Dimension with levels { (Everything), Year, Quarter, Month, Day Of Week, Date }
- We have a Time Dimension with levels { (Everything), AM/PM, Hour, Minute }

If a user wrote an MDX query that included 1st November and 2nd November and AM, then I'd expect to be able to work out that this set covers 24 hours.

I tried the following:
Code:

        Descendants([Date].CurrentMember, [Date].[Day] ).Count
        *
        Descendants([Time].CurrentMember, [Time].[Hour]).Count


But the following query breaks it...
Code:

SELECT
NON EMPTY [Measures].[_Total_Hours] ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY [Date].[Day].Members ON ROWS
FROM [MyCube]
WHERE {[Time].[00:00], [Time].[01:00]}


I also tried Virtual Cubes. Unfortunately our main cube is already a virtual cube, and I can't figure out how to correctly use 3 cubes in there, even in this simple case...
- Cube1 has dimensions W, X, Y, Z
- Cube2 has dimensions W, X, Y
- Cube3 has dimensions W, X


This feels like it shouldn't be hard, but I'm really struggling...

Saiku Installation Issue - cannot get it to work

$

I am having a tough time installing Saiku. I am running Pentaho EE 5.1.0 and i have repeatedly tried to install Saiku, it gets installed however when creating a new query - i don't see anything in the cube dropdown. While I checked through the Firebug it seems that its calling some License function where it is failing with a 404 error. Can anyone help ?

Following are the steps i have tried

- Went to marketplace - Clicked on Saiku, picked up the Saiku 5.0.9 CE version from drop down and installed it
- Restarted BI Server
- When I access saiku - i can see firebug in my firefox throws plenty of javascript missing files and 404 errors. Some of them are

/pentaho/content/saiku-ui/saikuplugin.properties_en.properties?_=1421951483711
/pentaho/content/saiku-ui/js/saiku/plugins/CCC_Chart/cdo.js
/pentaho/plugin/saiku/api/api/license?_=1421951667212

all of them throws 404 errors - and the drop down that shows up while creating a new query shows none of my cubes! - All these cubes work perfectly in CDE and Analyzer itself.

Anyone has any tips for this?


Thanks,

Pentaho BA EE 5.x are with so many bugs and issues

$
0

Sorry to express our frustration with Pentaho BA EE 5.x here in the forum. On the other hand, my recent past 1 yr experience with v5.0 and now 5.2 EE will caution you guys from subscribing to it until it becomes more solid. We have done a lot with Pentaho 5.x since it was debut....from OLAP, reporting SDK, REST API, all its desktop tools, etc. We have touched and used everything that Pentaho 5 has to offer. Our verdict... it is a very very non-robust application. We are facing from small bugs like the apps can't accept : (colon) inside Browse Files (for corrupting hyperlinks) to big bugs like not able to make HTTPS working properly despite getting FULL TECH SUPPORT from Pentaho. Many of their techs are clueless and even complaining to us that "indeed Pentaho 5.x has many many problems." (Yes we subscribed to their annual license).

Many of the bugs we figured out... eventually after wasted hours and days to get around them with trickery. But there are some that just wont work. Have to wait for next patch.

Honestly, I would suggest the community to just hang on to the Pentaho CE 5.x (which I believe having about the same bugs) and try-and-try until you are happy before your company would spend the money.

To give credit to Pentaho Corp, Pentaho 5.x is more sleek and more integrated than before. (By the way we have been using Pentaho since v3.0 and we give training on using Pentaho to clients directly) but filled with bugs. Sadly its Dashboard and some PUC GUIs are not something you would give an "A rating". Many of the no-brainer GUI elements should be done the common-sense way but not really. Like in their Dashboard about the prompt filters. Can you believe we can't still figure out how to arrange them in multi-rows...instead if you were to have 10 filters for the dashboard, they will be all on one row causing a horz-scroll bar. (Unless anyone here can lend a hand on how to make this work without hacking the source codes).

More sadly for Pentaho, there are more sleek BA software out with more intuitive and flexible dashboards, charts, drag-drop, etc. to compete with Pentaho. Yes your companies will have to pay more for them than Pentaho's but would you rather waste more company's time figuring the bugs than actually do Analytics???

I welcome more feedbacks from you guys out there and provide with more tricks on how to go around all these zoo of bugs. Everyday we are discovering so many. The WWW can't even give us all the solutions. Many have still not fully explored Pentaho BA 5.x or maybe just not sharing. One good example is how to display chart using Reporting SDK 5.2 to do embed? All the Pentaho samples are merely display tables and some simple stuffs. We searched for weeks on that and found only 1-2 guys who shared their entire Java source codes. Sadly again, we cant use all the 5.2 JARs to make that chart display working. We had to revert to 5.0 JARs to display the charts. We still don't know why. Here Pentaho is marketing to us that we can easily do report embed at any web site using the reporting SDK provided but they didn't even bother to give full-samples on how to do it all. If you were to asked their TECH SUPPORT (for subscribers like us). They told us that will require Custom Dev Service Support which we will have to pay with our credit card to get it.

PBA and excel output issues

Hello there,
i made a simply report which is working fine in PRD. I am using crosstab function and I want to have every column (data loaded from my db) in new column in excel. This is working 100% fine in PRD. The 1st column with data is in "A" column in excel, 2nd in "B" etc..

But i have problems in Pentaho Business Analytics. When I launch my report from there, there are data only in column A and the rest is missing. The column A is also really wide so I thought column A contains all data but it does not. There are really only data which belongs there.

I guess there must be some issues with report layout. I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out this problem but I did not find a solution.
Can someone look at my report and help me? I have deleted my db connection so please look at my layout and help me please :/

This is structure of my crosstab. Water, Fire, Air.. are loaded from my db.

I have a problem with first report , i can not select the fields

Hello , I'm doing my first report with PRI , I created the datasets but do not leave the fields of datasets to drag them to report ,

someone knows why ????
Thanks.

Well, the boss asked for it...

So I've got a report to build in CDE that will return varying number of lines of data. When displayed, I need to place a small line chart at the end of each row.

----------- DATA HERE ----------------- Small line chart
----------- DATA HERE ----------------- Small line chart
----------- DATA HERE ----------------- Small line chart
----------- DATA HERE ----------------- Small line chart
----------- DATA HERE ----------------- Small line chart

This would appear to be a job for PRD, but I cannot hide some of the unnecessary axis lines and labels on the charts (or can I?), and PRD sparklines aren't an option since my charts need to display a value line as well as an horizontal "goal" line (sparklines in PRD can only show one line, right?).

Is there a way to dynamically lay this out in CDE? I've been able to pull data into the Table component, and then I guess I could put a chart into the "expand" area, but that seems like a clunky solution; I need all the charts to display all at once.

Any brilliant thoughts out there? Thanks!

PDI/Spoon Won't Run Transformations on Centos 7

$

I started using PDI in a new environment with below configuration. Spoon started normally and I was able to create/edit transformations and connections without any problem. But, the run, pause, and stop buttons on the toolbar were all enabled and clicking on any one of them did nothing. I was not able to run a transformation through spoon.

PDI 5.2 (pdi-ce-5.2.0.0-209)
Centos 7 (CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core))
XCFE desktop
java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64

After adding --sync in spoon.sh ("$_PENTAHO_JAVA" $OPT -jar "$STARTUP" --sync -lib $LIBPATH "${1+$@}"), I was able to see this error:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/swt/widgets/Control

I found another swt at http://archive.eclipse.org/eclipse/d.../index.php#SWT. There's probably a more appropriate place to get it. I replaced the file at data-integration/libswt/linux/x86_64/swt.jar.

I also removed the --sync from spoon.sh that I added because it continued to give the error.

But, now, I am able to open the run transformation dialog.
