TM1 Forum

Hi,

I´m having a issue when a try to create a Dimension from SAP HANA, the error message is:

CCognosProxy::Could not get version:Write error
Error: Prolog procedure line (0): Unable to open data source "SAPHANA".CCognosProxy::Could not get version:Write error


Can someone help me please?

Best regards.

How are you connecting to HANA from TM1 via ODBC ? or via the the standard ODBC.
What is your SQL ? Is it a calculation view ?

The larger question is why not go with a more integrated solution for Budgeting and Forecasting if you are already on HANA.

IMHO The way S4/HANA is coming along , I would seriously leverage all the power of HANA . Think Simple Finance with Fiori and your CFO would never be more happier

Suggesting he gets a different product isn't solving his TM1 problem.
Then, he hasn't said how he's connecting and the messages he quotes look very odd - perhaps he is using the BI connector? I have not heard good things about that approach. Can the OP give more detail?

Hi,

We are using ODBC to connect the systems, the HDBODBC32, i have installed, but, i dont know if its working or not, we are trying to connect the data bases already, never worked, how i know if im using the standard ODBC how i check ? and answering the questions, i´m just come to the project, just trying the make this works, the architecture was created before i enter im the project, and i know its not the best.

Its a calculation view

Basicaly, HANA - TM1 - SPSS -R

One more info, we can see the data in hana, in the preview button, the error occur when try to create the dimension, maybe the version error is in the server ?

You seem very confused. HDBODBC32 is the SAP HANA ODBC driver. Just having that installed does not at all answer what you are using on the TM1 side to connect.

When you open the failing TI process, what is the datasource type? Based on the error message, I expect it's some flavor of "IBM Cognos Package". You should verify that package connector is installed and configured correctly.

HI,

package connector is installed, IBM COGNOS 10 package connector for TM1, but i dont know if installed correctly, sorry if i look confusing, but this world is new for me.

Best Regards.

As was rightly pointed out HDBODBC32 is the SAP HANA ODBC driver and can be setup just like an ordinary ODBC driver.

You will need to install the driver on the TM1 Server and pop in the details as you would for any ordinary ODBC driver.

If you can connect to the HANA DB then you should be be able connect to TM1 using a TI as you normally would using an ODBC Driver i.e. via Data Source Name in your TI. I suspect there could be some issues with credentials but this could easily be checked using SAP HANA Studio.

Hi i will install the sap hana studio to test the connection, but when i enter in the architect, i can connect to SAP Hana Server, turbo integrator, IBM COGNOS Package, source,SAPHANA, in the preview button, i can see the data in sap hana database, when i press the RUN Button the error appear;

we are using the package connector on server to conect in the BI and BI on SAP HANA

I belive the error is in the server side, i will check the odbc in server

I believe the error is in the server side, i will check the odbc in server

I strongly suggest you put the package connector to one side and use ODBC.

Hi guys

I just solved the question, i mean, IBM have, this is a know issue from IBM AIX+TM1/COGNOS

in the server just put this ambient variant

COG_ROOT to ".." (upper directory in cognos work directory)

and now works fine.

Thank you guys
