Hi Olivier

To get the CSS Token feature working, you have to run through some configuration steps that are hidden away in the release notes for OBIEE 11.1.1.6 :


For the patch that's mentioned in step 4, you do not need to request the patch, but you still need the utility that was included in the patch.   In 11.1.1.6 it is included under:  <BI_ORACLE_HOME>/common/css/11.1.2.0.

Hi, I try to do exactly the same OBIEE 11.1.1.6 on Essbase 11.1.2.2
When I try the SSO Mode "CSS Token" I get the same error :
[nQSError: 96002] Essbase Error: Login fails due to invalid login credentials (HY000)"

I don't understand how OBI can generate a "CSS Token" for Essbase, because OBI need to have the right CSS API for CSS 11.1.2.x.

I think that it work for Essbase 11.1.1.3 (but I did not test it)
But I don't find any document that explain how to solve it for Essbase 11.1.2.x

Do you have any update for me ?

Hi Andriy,

Sorry, didn't pick up your email until this morning. I''ll be at various sessions today at the Moscone, if you see me say hello, it'd be good to catch-up.
