Extraction of data from SAP BW with BO Data Services Designer

[Former Member]

Hi all,

In our Demo system we have set up both SAP BW and BO Data Services.

We have made the connection between DS and BW and we are able to follow the steps in the Wiki on these links:

Configuration on BW side

[http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/ConfiguringSAPBWOpenHub+Destination]

[http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/ConfiguringSAPBWOpenHub+ProcessChain]

I have set up a load job in DS where I'm able to configure it as stated in this link:

[http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/ReadingfromanOpenHub+Destination]

When I start the loading job in DS everthing looks fine until I get the following Message in the Job log:

Process Chain <Z_DS_TEST_DSO_ZDS_TST> of Open Hub <ZDS_TST> is being processed by RFC Server DS_TARGET@xenbd1_BD1_20 at Data Services Administrator http://VM-BOD:28080/DataServices.

This message is repated over and over again, but nothing happens. In the end I have to Kill the job in the Monitor of the started job

Do anybody know why DS is not able to start the Process Chain in BW?

In addition, I can add that we are able to Load data from DS --> BW. From a Flatfile in DS to a DSO in BW.

Thanks in beforehand for you help

regards

Hi Oddmar,

I also faced this issue (repeated message over and over again). I figure out it stacked on process # 5 in this guide: http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/EIM/Reading+SAP+BW

Solution:

I went to my DS repository database and found table AL_SAP_JOB where I manually deleted row with the most probable name related to Open Hub Destination in the BW.

From some reason it works again.

Has anyone solved this problem?

I have the same error, I do not know where to look.
