MDS 2016 not loading records from _leaf table

October 20, 2016, 6:39 am
$

I am having an issue loading records into MDS entities using the import tool and _leaf tables.  After I load the records into the _leaf table the batch shows up in the import tool.  When I run the batch, it executes and indicates it has completed with no errors.  However, no members are loaded into the entity and the import status on the _leaf table is still 0 (should be changed to 1 if successful or 2 if it failed).

When this initially happened, I was able to work around the issue by clearing all of the batches from the import tool, deleting all of the records from the _leaf table, and then reloading the batch into the _leaf table.  However, this issue has occurred again and that workaround did not work.  I have also tried run an update on the _leaf table to assign a new batch ID but the new batch does not appear in the import tool.

Does anyone have a way to get the import tool working again?

Hello,

I just upgraded MDS from version 12.1.. to 12.2. Meanwhile every user defined object vanished from MDS database.

Is this intentional functionality that I just can't understand? How do you guys handle this? Does your functions, views etc. lie on some other database?

Thanks in advance!

We are using Office 2010 on Citrix with the RCO Master Data Excel addin. I am getting many calls from users that the Addin has disappeared from the Excel menu. Can re-enable it by going to files->Options->Addins and manage COM addins. Have not been able to work out why it becomes disabled. Does anyone know of a registry setting that I can use to stop it from being disabled?

Hi All,

I am trying to modify the existing credentials as well as trying to add a new credentials altogether via Database->Security->Credentials option

But in both the cases I am hitting an error saying that "The certificate, asymmetric key, or private key data is invalid, Microsoft SQL Server Error: 15297".   

I googled a lot but did not find any solution for this error while creating credentials.

I am using SQL Server 12 on Windows 2012R2 machine.

The credentials were working fine earlier , and suddenly I noticed that my sql scheduled jobs started failing saying that Bad username and password, and then I tried to modify the credentials and faced this issue.

Note:- My windows machine is being joined to a domain, and SQL Service/Agent is running via domain admin account and I am creating a credentials for domain admin account only. Additionally I have logged on to my windows box using domain admin account only.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. May thanks in advance.

I have created a credential for a user who is the domain admin and listed under Logins list of SQL Server and has sysadmin privileges.

With the above mentioned created credential , I have created a proxy and then created a SQL server agent job, by specifying

the proxy account.  But my job execution is failing saying that "Error authenticating proxy {proxy name}, system error, username or password is incorrect".

I have properly verified my credentials and both the username and password is correct only.

Note :- When I modify my sql job to run as with "SQL Server Agent Service Account", the the job executes perfectly fine.

pl help to identify what's going wrong with the proxy which I have created.

MDS does not display resources (img, css, ...): "The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred."

Dear all,

After having installed MDS2016, all resources (img, css, ...) are not shown, this is what I see:
(rem: If I try to access a resource directly I get: The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.)

If I put the Application Pool user as admin of the server where MDS is installed, it works fine. But this is not an option for my company to put that user as admin of the server, I need to find which exact right that user is missing. Already tried a few, but no luck until now. Would you have any idee of what right that user is missing ?

Hi there,

Primary platform is 2014 Enterprise,

I’ve configured DQS in my local box, created Knowledge base and domain as well as its domain rules and imported an Excel (only Excel is allowed??)

After that I see the results but only in another table not in the current one.

What am I missing here? is it possible to apply the cleansing process against the same table?

Thanks for your comments,

MDS2012 - Adding Owner and Model to the Entity Metadata Definition entity

November 7, 2016, 5:09 pm

Hi - Ive looked through the forum but cant really find what Im looking for here.

In order to be able to support our instance of MDS there are a couple of basic questions we need to be able to answer quickly and in a reportable format:

1) what models and entities do we have in MDS

2) what roles have been assigned to the models ie who is the owner, who has Explorer, who has Read Only etc

The Metadata Model is in essence what we are looking for but with some extra information.

 so how do I:

  1. Model Definition: add attributes that show which users and groups access the model (and even better in what capacity)
  2. Entity Definition: Plug in an extra attribute that shows the model name
  3. have these attributes auto populate.

has anyone already done this or similar? If so could you please share how to (in simple speak please)

I am trying to configure MDS in the Production server. I am running into isssues.

(I was able to do the whole process successfuly in my local system - Versions are same in the local and server - Only difference is local machine is windows 7 server is Windows 2008 R2)

I have installed SQL server 2012 Enterprise Version SP1. I am able to browse the MDS URL. User has got full permissions. When I try to access the MDS via Excel I get the below error.

Can any one help me please I have spent days on this withou any joy.

MDS 2016 problems - General Error, This page can't be displayed, Evaluation period expired...

June 28, 2016, 5:46 am
$

We have a clean install from Windows server 2012 R2 and SQL Server 2016 development edition with MDS.

MDS configuration went smoothly and according to management console all the necessary IIS components are in place. When I open the MDS web app localhost/MDS everything looks fine...but going to Version management or User and Group Permission pages won't do anything and I get "This page can't be displayed" -error. If I try to create a new model it fails and gives me "110001 : A general error occurred."

MDS log files at C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\130\Master Data Services\WebApplication\Logs have following errors:

GetAllSystemSettingGroups,Error,"Evaluation period has expired."

GetAllSystemSettingGroups,Error,"Error details: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[Microsoft.MasterDataServices.Services.DataContracts.EditionExpiredMessage]: The Microsoft SQL Server license has expired. (Fault Detail is equal to Microsoft.MasterDataServices.Services.DataContracts.EditionExpiredMessage)."

"LogError : An error occurred while processing message request type 'SystemSettingsGetRequest'. See exception details for more information.

According to SQL Server the evaluation period hasn't expired, and it shouldn't be because all of the above were installed about a week ago.

I've compared the MDS web.config to another installation and they seem to be similar. I've tried replacingsqlboot.dll with the file from Program Files (x86) as suggested in some posts and disabling UAC with no luck.

It looked like .ASPX -pages wouldn't respond in MDS. However when I made my own test.aspx it works OK so I'm guessing the problem shouldn't be in IIS, but in the MDS aplication/web site.

I'm running out of ideas (and time) what to try next. Does anyone have any ideas or similar experiences?

Master Data Services 2016 cross domain users management issue

November 11, 2016, 3:49 am

I have a scenario where MDS admin users and MDS application pool exist in domain A , normal MDS users exist in domain B.

While this scenario worked with MDS 2012 after upgrade to MDS 2016 I am not able to navigate to functional area in MDS user security management with A\admin user- it yields "Access is Denied". Other areas in user security management work. The only information I could find in MDS log is: The user name or password is incorrect.

I thought it might be related to fact that cross forest domain roaming is disabled and those B domain users cannot have fully imported profiles on MDS machine. I have enabled it, forced GPO refresh - doesn't work

I tried with MDS database and application created by user from domain B - doesn't work

Any ideas how to investigate or fix it?

MDS 2016 Derived Hierarchy Sort Order

November 14, 2016, 3:00 pm

Hello,

I'm trying to build an employee - manager derived hierarchy, however, I'm not having much success.  My current schema looks like this:

Employee Entity
     Code (auto-generated number)
     Name (Employee Alias)
     Manager Alias (domain-based list to Manager entity)

Manager Entity
     Code (auto-generated number)
     Name (Manager Alias)
     Tree Level (1=CEO, 2=CEO's direct reports, etc)

I successfully created a derived hierarchy by dragging the leaf attribute first (Employee Alias) and the the Parent Attribute last (Manager Alias) and the hierarchy shows each manager (in alphabetical order) as if they are at the same managerial level and their direct reports (on drill down).  However, I'm really trying to get the hierarchy to nest each manager and their employees based on their Tree Level in the Manager entity.  My hope is to show the Managers and Employees in a sort order similar to this:

Tree Level 1
     Tree Level 2
          Tree Level 3
          Tree Level 3
     Tree Level 2
          Tree Level 3
               Tree Level 4
     Tree Level 2

If this can be accomplished please provide step-by-step instructions or point me to a resource (article or video) that shows how to set this up.  Thank you in advance for any help you can offer!

Cheers,
JasonVL
