DCP absolutely does not work with BO 4.2

Hello Team,

I'm currently working on a SAP BO upgrade. The system is being upgraded from 3.1 SP1 to 4.2 SP4.

I have tested the DCP and it is absolutely not working. At this time, the DCP is required because few reports will remain as Desktop Intelligence till full conversion / audit has been finished.

I have worked with DCP in other system upgrades, and it had been working fine up to now.

However, with BO 4.2 it is impossible to make it work.

*******************************************************************************************************

The environment which I have tested (in Windows 10 and 7😞

********** Environment 1:

SAP BO 4.2 SP4

(for DCP) BO 3.1 SP6 FP2 (the latest has been tested too)

********** Environment 2:

SAP BO 4.2 SP4

(for DCP) BO 3.1 SP7

**********Environment 3:

SAP BO 4.2 SP6

(for DCP) BO 3.1 SP7

*******************************************************************************************************

To test I have open the Desktop Intelligence, entered the credentials. As soon as I type the credentials nothing happens.

By using "ProcMon" software, I have listen all operations of "busobj.exe", And notice that when the binary "C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86\busobj.exe" is called, the system exists with an error code "-1073741511".

I have followed the instructions in the notes 2042056 and 1939383.

Would anyone have any suggestion? Any suggestion is highly appreciated.

I don't know what else to test.

Hi, the same scenario, the same problem.. We consider to downgrade/create new test instalaltion of 4.1 if DCP does work then.

by the way - Does the UMT tool work for you?
BOXI 3.1SP7.x -> UMT -> BOBI 4.2.x ?

Do you have to use the noauth parameter for file servers?

thx Tomas

BOXI 3.1SP7.x -> UMT -> BOBI 4.2.x

should work, provided source system is in working order.
