Hi, All data in the DMT spreadsheets is required to be stored as text (with the latest version) - this is due to Excel converting all other formats to what it thinks the value should be, thus the additional ".0". Convert the cells to text only, then put the date in as straight text . It can be a

Thanks, Roger. I tried deleting the first row of data. The new first row generated the same error message. Then I tried loading the spreadsheet with a single row of data. Same error. I've seen variations of this before. For example, when loading people, the Corporate IDs all had a ".0" appended t

Since the error message includes the Pentaho application it could be that Pentaho is causing the error. You could attempt to import a single entry directly to the DMT form to isolate the error. -Original Message- From: Boyd, Rebecca To: arslist Sent: Fri, Feb 21, 2014 4:12 pm Subject

Hi, The Paper License concept is that you estimate the number of end users that will access the system and pay BMC a license fee based on this number. The users don't get a license allocated in the tool (Floating/Fixed) so to speak, but as they are accessing the system (Consoles, etc) you need

That's been our experience as well. If we don't flush the Mid Tier cache we have no issues, but if we do, there is still a subset of people that will get "caught exception" and HTTP 500 errors. Fortunately, we're slowing down our need for 8.1 fixes so we should be doing less code changes to IT

Hi Radhika! You should do the same trick you did with the installer, to the startup script as well and start the instances manually and one at a time. If you are already doing this, it then becomes a matter of finding out where it gets the physical host name from since you have changed the HOSTNA
