Action sequence errors

[PaoloG]

Hi! I'm new to Pentaho and still trying to make it work right... Pentaho server is on a Windows 2000 Server machine, while I'm using client software on a Windows XP machine.

I've been solving some issues I found at the beginning browsing the forums, but I can't get out of this.

I started working on Design Studio and tried to modify the HelloWorld action sequence as suggested in the startup manual.

Initially the output was not changing. I've been looking for other helloworld.xaction on the server machine (to see if it was a solutions path problem) but with no luck. There must be something wrong as the cation file is modified but the output is not.

I then decided to run the system settings and global variables refresh services from the Adminintration Console. What I get now is a runtime error now:

Failed Errore: Solo un output richiesto, ma ottenuti nessuno o più di uno (org.pentaho.platform.plugin.action.builtin.TemplateComponent) Debug: Partenza dellesecuzione di {0}/{1}/{2} (org.pentaho.platform.engine.services.solution.SolutionEngine)

Errore: SolutionEngine.ERROR_0006 - Validazione dell'Action Sequence fallita (org.pentaho.platform.engine.services.solution.SolutionEngine)


Server Version: Pentaho Platform Engine Core 2.0.0-RC1.33017


And here's where I'm stucked.

The only weird thing I see is that the Tomcat server is not able to find the native library on java.library.path (there's a tomcat-native.tar.gz in the tomcat bin folder).

Any help or suggestion will be higly appreciated, thank you!

... it helps in expanding the knowledge in the product! :eek:

Ok, googling a lot helped me in solving my problem...

The "pentaho-solutions" folder is missing some information in the "getting-started" folder:

- index.xml
- index.properties

This caused the solutions repository not to be updated and synchronized.

I used the ones from another solutiuons folder, assured that the "visible" property was set to true, and launched a repository refresh from the admin console. Not that difficult, nice if there was an updated "Getting started" guide...

I leave this for others who will surely run in this problem if they follow my same path. :rolleyes:

Keep on serching!

Hi

Did u get ERROR_007: ActionSequence error? I am unable to test HelloWorld.xaction ...when I do 'test' I get a blank page with a popup SWT error

Hi

I found solution for "SWT Error" thrown by eclipse while trying to preview "HelloWorld.xaction" on Pentaho Design Studio.

The solution is only applicable for Ubuntu 9.0.4 (Jaunty). The error messages points to GTK+2 library missing problem.

So, I did this and it worked:
1) sudo aptitude install libswt3.2-gtk-gcj libswt3.2-gtk-java libswt3.2-gtk-jni
2) go to /usr/lib
3) ln -s libxpcom.so.0d libxpcom.so (this is reqd. because for some reason libxpcom.so is named as libxpcom.so.0d <<it could be right, but that's what is expected by BI server while executing this xaction>>

***NOTE*** If you still get error in eclipse, then just generate the url, copy it along with the prefix "http://localhost:8080/pentaho" and paste it in firefox to view it.

thx
