June 17, 2012Applies to:
Business Intelligence Interactive Dashboard – Version: 11.1.1.5.0 [1308] and later [Release: 11g and later ]
Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
Recently upgraded Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) from 10g to 11g (OBIEE 11.1.1.5).
All upgrade steps were completed as described in the Upgrade Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence
11g; including upgrading the web catalog and repository (RPD).
The repository was checked and there were no errors.
When logging in to OBIEE Presentation server as a user with OBIEE Administrator role, the 11g dashboard is empty and expected content is not present.
Changes
Upgraded from 10g to 11g.
Cause
Insufficient permissions on ‘shared folders.’
The permissions on catalog folder ‘shared folders’ were available only for ‘Authenticated user’ and ‘Presentation Server Administrators’.
Solution
Login to OBIEE Presentation server as WLS or biadmin user and select Administration link ->
add relevant application role e.g. ‘BI Administrator role’ and grant at least read and traverse permissions to the ‘shared folders.’
Also ensure that you tick the check boxes to apply permissions to all items within the folder and sub folders.
