  • 1.  IE10/IE11 with Business Objects Infoview - Fix for 404 error

    Posted Apr 09, 2015 06:49 AM

    ie10 or ie11 will not work properly with infoview in the version of business objects that comes with CABI.

    This is because the URL it parses when trying to view properties or schedule is incorrect.

    How to fix

    Step 1

    Navigate to the "shared_caf_utils.js" in the tomcat folder

    Example path:

    Business Objects\CA\SC\CommonReporting3\Tomcat6\webapps\InfoViewApp\js\shared_caf_utils.js

    Step 2

    Make a back up of this file (i.e. copy and rename) and store somewhere safe

    Step 3

    Stop the tomcat service

    Step 4

    Edit shared_caf_utils.js in notepad, find:

    if(window.navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE") > -1) {
    
    
    

    Step 5

    replace this entire line with:

      var blnIE_LT_9 = false;
      try {
      /*@cc_on
          blnIE_LT_9 = (@_jscript_version < 9);
      @*/
      }
      catch(err) { }
        if(window.navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE") > -1 && blnIE_LT_9) {
    
    
    

    Step 6

    Save

    Step 7

    Start the tomcat service

    Step 8

    Clear cache in your ie11 browser and log into infoview, you will now be able to access the properties or schedule a report.

     

     

    Hope this is of use to the CA PPM community

    Merci d'avoir partagé cette astuce. Maintenant il est possible d'utiliser ie11 avec Bo XI 3.1 SP5.3 sans avoir les erreur 404 pour planifier un rapport ou afficher les propriétés d'un rapport. C'est vraiment super ! Merci encore !
