Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition(OBIEE)

11g   Installation
Below screenshots will guide you through step by step installation of OBIEE 11 g Fusion Middleware product .Before

start the setup make sure Oracle 11g database installed and RCU setup completed.

Step 1: Download OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.3.0) version from below link of OTN .

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/downloads/business-intelligence11g-

240521.html

Prerequisite has been installed as  : Oracle 11g DB R2 and RCU 11.1.13.3 .

Now extract the download copy into two different folders ….

Step 2:Merge the two folders content into single directory “..\bi_windows_x86_111130_32_disk1_1of2\bishiphome” .
Step 3: Execute the setup.exe .

Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) pre-requisite verification started .

Then the OFMW 11g Installer template initiated.

Step 4: Click Next on Welcome screen appeared below.

Step 5: Select the “Installation Type” as ‘Simple’ .This is easiest and recommended for first try .All the parameters will

be set by default.

N.B:- Enterprise installation is mostly required in Scalable system having the configuration required across multiple

Weblogic domain or joining a existing domain to existing Weblogic Server .The “Software Only Install” requires the

configuration done in different phase after the enterprise wide installation is over .
Step 6: Pre-requisites check has been done .

Step 7: Specify the installation location .

Step 8: Enter the ‘Weblogic’ Admin credentials . In my case the password is: ‘weblogic123′ (without quotes to meet

Oracle Password standard) .

Step 9: Configuring the components . In my case I select all .

Step 10: Specify the connection parameters ..

N.B:- Be aware of the error message thrown here during my first installation as “INST-08029 Unable to connect to

Database with given credentials.” It seems to be an Oracle BUG .See the issue in screenshot .

The reason of this error is the BIPLATFORM schema password .In RCU utility if you provide the password same as

Schema name it would be creating trouble. Not sure whether it doesn’t accept the same password or it doesn’t accept

the underscore(‘_’) character .

Anyway I get rid of it after dropping the RCU schema for BI and recreate the same with password as ‘rcu’ .This

password has been provided here .

Step 11: Specify security update section .

Step 12: Finalise the installation .

The installation started …..

After installation done the configuration Process starts …

Step 13: The installation and configuration completed .Click Finish .

So finally OBIEE11g has been installed successfully with the below access details for different application :
