Hello! Help me please...

I installing the SAP BO BI 4.0 on MaxDB 7.7.04.28

First, I installed MaxDB successfully and created an empty database BO4. Connected to it with the Database Manager as user "bo4adm". Database started in mode "online".

I also connect to it with dbmcli as user "bo4adm".

Next I run the installation BO. When get to a step:

"Specify information about the existing database to use for the CMS repositary"

I enter the necessary data:

CMS DB Name: BO4

MaxDB Server: 192.168.157.10

MaxDB port: 7210

Username: bo4adm

Password: *******

Reset existing database: 1

But when testing I get the following error:

SAP BusinessObjects BI platform CMS: Unable to connect CMS system database " "bo4:192.168.157.10:7210" ".

Reason: MaxDB error found: ErrorCode(-4008) ErrorMessage: POS(1) Unknown user name/password combination SqlState: 08004

Why is this happening? What am I doing wrong?

Hello Yuriy,

During the installation provide the username/password of DBM user of the database.

Post the output of the following SQL statement. Connect as DBM/SUPERDBA user to the database and run the followin sql statement

dbmcli on BO4> sql_execute select * from users

Hello Yuriy,

I see that you have two users for BO4 database.

DBM - Database Manager User

BO4ADM - Database Administrator User

Specify the DBM user during the installation.

Try entering the password for MaxDB using ONLY uppercase letters.

Let me know if that worked..
