CDE - Widgets and Components don't appear in the PUC repository

$

0
Hi everyone,

I am using Linux Ubuntu and BI-Server is running as pentaho user group pentaho.
sudo -u pentaho JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0_21 ./start-pentaho.sh

I'm trying to create widgets but they don't appear in cde/widgets folder on BI-Server repository.

I also tried putting my library of prebuilt widgets in cde/widgets folder
however they don't appear to be able to edit them.
Note:
* All files. Wcdf. Cdfde. Cda are with correct permissions (pentaho: pentaho - chmod 600 / -rw-r--r-- )
** CTools is installed using ctools-installer.sh on webdetails - github
*** After creating a new widget or copy prebuilt widgets in cde/widgets and after
changing the correct permissions the BI-Server was restarted

1. Is there any problem in running the BI-Server as root user? :confused:
(I noticed that on a production server the BI-Server that runs as root user has
fewer problems in displaying dashboards and widgets copied in the repository)

2. What should I do for new and pre-built widgets appear in the folder cde / widgets? :confused:


Any assistance on the approach will be greatly appreciated.


Thanks and Regards.

Using Dates

$
0
0
When creating an Analyzer Report or Dashboard on the User Console, I'm using a MySql database as my data source. It contains a single table, with one of its columns in a TIMESTAMP format.

How can I use the date filters on Pentaho to organise my data by year/month, etc? It only seems to read this timestamp as a string... Do I have to have separate year/month columns in my database for this to work?

Any advice is much appreciated, thanks.

Hi,

While defining my output table with connection to Postgres DB kettle finds my target scheme & target table, but when i press `Get Fields` button nothing happens (specify database fields checked).
While pressing `Enter field mapping` i get the following error:

"Unable to determine the required fields.
Unable to determine the required fields because the specified database table couldn't be found."

If i create the table via SQL button everything works fine, but how come that when i specify an existing table it cant be found?

I'm using 4.4.0-stable version,

Thanks for helpers,

Two question survey on who uses PDI

Hi folks,

I'm doing a presentation on Kettle to a users' group and wanted some data on who uses PDI/Kettle. I searched the forums, but didn't see such a survey in the past, nor did I find any info using google.

So I threw together a quick survey, which you can take here:

http://bit.ly/16IY0y9

It has only two required questions: what is your primary role in which you use PDI, and how long have you been using it.

I will let this run for a while, then post results back to this thread.

Thanks,
Dan

How to get PUC Login Page after Tomcat's Basic Authentication..!!

$
0
0
Dear All,
I'm trying to introduce a basic authentication for Pentao BI portal, where after the basic authentication, it should bring me to the standard PUCLogin page.


I've added the following lines in 'tomcat-users.xml' :
<role rolename="Admin"/>
<user username="suresh" password="suresh" roles="Admin"/>


And add following lines in 'web.xml'
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Wildcard means whole app requires authentication</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>Admin</role-name>
</auth-constraint>

<user-data-constraint>
<transport-guarantee>NONE</transport-guarantee>
</user-data-constraint>
</security-constraint>

<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>Admin</realm-name>
</login-config>


With the changes for enabling basic authentication, it's asking site access authentication for 'Admin':
Screenshot from 2013-07-02 09:25:07.jpg


But after the basic authentication, its again asking for 'Pentaho Realm', which is for application login :
Screenshot from 2013-07-02 09:25:45.jpg


Once I put 'Joe' and 'password' in the dialog box, then it will redirect me to the Home page.

What I really want is, after the basic authentication, the landing page should be the Pentaho's Login page.


Please advise me how the 'Pentaho Realm' is coming in? What are the additional changes I need to do with Pentaho/Tomcat configurations?


Many Thanks,
Suresh.

Fuzzy Match and special characters

$

Hello all,

I'm trying to use the Fuzzy Match step with french words (and for specifically, french first names).
Is there a way to use this step with special characters. My tests show that Therese (my input test) is closer to Terese than it is to Thérèse (the proper writing). Using an automatic replacement would result in this first name being written unproperly instead of just missing the accents. I would not be cleaning my data but just making it worse ;)

I have the same problem with other accents, cedillas, dieresis or Œ (among others)

Thanks in advance for your answers

Hi !

Someone could guide me on the best way to capture a value in a select component but only a portion of the string as a parameter. In particular the first 3 characters of counting from left to right.

I know it must be something very elementary to senior members but I'm stuck. This procedure will become much more friendly the DashBoard.

Only display peak values

Hello.

Rocking some CDE dashboards and find that more often than not I only want to show 1 or 2 values in a chart (line chart in this case).
Any documentation leads on how I can 'run through the values and only display specific values?

I am guessing its going to be JS code inside valueFormat, but I'm lost on how to do it and have to believe this would be helpful to the masses.

Many many thanks.
