Does anyone know how to export a document\set of documents (cockpits, reports, charts, etc) from one server instance to another?
I haven't found any info on this subject and really would like to know, as it's important for future development and upgrading. We want\need to have two separated environments, one for dev and another for use by end-client.
Thank you in advance :)
See my write-up of Exporting SpagoBI Report Documents from one server and importing them into another SpagoBI Server. That will will give you a largely manual process, but it is repeatable.
Exporting and Importing of SpagoBI Documents
If you're interested in exporting one report document, possibly versioning it as an artifact, and then deploying it to one or more SpagoBI servers in an automated fashion, see my working SpagoBI Export deployer project in Github dbh / SpagoBIInteg and my blog post SpagoBI report deployment via SDK
Here is a former discussion thread on the Spago World forum which which went without comment.
If you find any of this useful, please let me know. I'm happy to collaborate.

I have a very big problem after migrating BPM from version 8.5.5 to BAW 22. I have a saved search on the process portal, which shows me the tasks of all users broken down by process. After migration, this search has stopped working and it only shows me my tasks and the team tasks I belong to. It stopped showing other users tasks. I tried to fix this error in different ways but nothing works. Can anyone help?
Can you provide more specifics on what you have tried so far?
Two things I would suggest:
If search optimization is enabled, check out this link here if you haven't already. You will need to drop the LSW_BPD_INSTANCE_VAR_NAMES and LSW_BPD_INSTANCE_VARS_PIVOT tables and recreate them using the steps mentioned here:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/baw/22.x?topic=portal-tuning-process-searches
2)Depending on your Saved Search criteria, it's possible you will need to re-create it. See the red alert section about existing saved searches and migration here:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/baw/22.x?topic=windows-restarting-verifying-migration.
It mentions 'earlier versions of Business Automation Workflow' but the same would apply to earlier versions of BPM
I've been reading online about either using RDLC or RDL reports however, I'm not sure if this is correct/best path for creating reports.
Any other recommendations are very much appreciated it.
MVC is a style of web development that doesn't really have anything to do with reporting. Your options are basically (1) create "reports" as web pages that dump data to the screen, or (2) use a report engine like SSRS (which uses .rdl) or BIRT. The first option is terrible if anyone ever wants to save or print the report. It's difficult to get it to page correctly or even group and sort things they way you want. Reporting engines handle all of that for you, so it knows how much data will fit onto a page given the paper size and margins you've set, and they have built-in methods for exporting the data to PDF/Word/Excel, etc. They also make it easy to add headers, footers, page x of y, etc.
For SSRS you'll need a SQL database with SSRS installed, and it serves reports up via its own version of IIS. This usually means that you'll need a hyperlink on your MVC app that points to the report's URL on the report server. You can either use ReportBuilder or Visual Studio with the appropriate settings (see SQL Server Data Tools). If the reports need to be served up to the public as opposed to within your company, you also need to be careful with both security settings and licensing on the SQL server.
BIRT is the best-known open source version of a reporting engine, but I've never used it so I have to leave that up to you to research. There are probably others.
I'm developing a ADF Fusion Web Application in JDeveloper 12. After the creation of the project I took a look at the file system and a bunch of directories were created.
Can anyone tell me what the .adf folder is good for? I can't find anything about it in the Oracle Docs. I'm developing with git and I'd like to know if I have to version this directory, too.
Thanks in advance!
Inside the above mentioned folder can be found two files: adf-config.xml and connections.xml. For an overview of their usage you can take a look at these links:
Oracle ADF XML File Appendix and Web Center. In both of them it states that there are stored application-level setting during design time, which can be used later during the deployment process (it seems quite important though :) ). So, even if you delete that folder it should be recreated if you make any changes and redeploy the application, BUT, if it is there it means it should be there (typical Oracle politics ;) ). So even if you are really in need of their settings (such as modify connection details to point to production server instances) it should be versioned as well.
I'm using svn, and it does version it automatically.
Hope this helps.
ADF creates several files and folders that are needed by the project.
It creates them when the project uses a functionality that needs those files.
In .adf/META-INF/ you can find adf-config.xml & connections.xml which are Application Level Settings.
But for example src/META-INF/jazn-data.xml doesn't exist until you enable Security on your application. This file is also needed and should be on SVN/Git.
ADF also creates some temporary files and folders that shouldn't be on Git/SVN.
Like: .data/.
Depending on what technologies you use from the ADF stack (ADF BC, ADF Model, ADF Controller, ADF Faces), you should understand what files and folders are created.
If you have searched for .adf/ in the official Documentation you would have found your answers.
ADF by default creates .adf and .data file, .adf file you can say is for holding various info related to your workspace in IDE i.e the connections that its having with Database, META-INF info used for customization purpose.
& .data support your MDS functionality.
we can always delete it but our Jdev will create it automatically, whenever we rebuild our application.
So this is a bit of a vague question and I apologize but here goes nothing.
I am in the process of creating a SP2013 test farm that is an exact copy of our SP2010 production farm. When I mount the main content db for our main site collection I get a missing feature ID error. Here is the problem I need help with...
The solution that should have this feature is deployed to the farm already, however, as I was not working here when these solutions were made I don't know if I'm deploying the correct .wsp file. There are about 8 revisions so I naturally deployed the latest one.
So...
1. Would feature ID's change from version to version?
2. Is there a way to see which .wsp is deployed to my production farm.
Thanks for any help!
Featuer ID will not change from version to version. you can see installed features from template/feature folder under SharePoint Hive (either 15 or 14 hive based on your sharepoint version).
Hope this helps.
We've setup some different load tests and need to generate/send the result pr. e-mail, a link, pdf or similar. The output and metrics are saved to a database (resultstore), but I haven't been able to find too much information on how to generate a report without having visual studio. One thing that comes into mind, is creating a custom report in reporting service (any one know of existing reports I could use?).
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Ended up with creating a report myself using reporting services. If I can make generic enough, I'll post it here.
