Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.4.006 SmartView 11.1.2.5.710 link from Workspace on linux

dpswindOct 20 2017 — edited Oct 20 2017

Smart View users are upgrading from 11.1.2.1 to this version.  When clicking on the Workspace link in 11.1.2.4 to install Smart View, the user is taken to the Oracle Smart View page.

I need to have the executable on the server and use that to install.  This is documented in the Oracle SmartView for Office Installation and Configuration Guide.  In the section "Installing from EPM Workspace", the version.xml file is updated to "point to the location of the Smart View executable file":

/epmstatic/wspace/SmartView/SmartView.exe

I have a Linux installation, and found two version.xml files $EPM_ORACLE_HOME=/data/hyperion/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/

$EPM_ORACLE_HOME/common/epmstatic/smartview/Client

and in

$EPM_ORACLE_HOME/common/epmstatic/wspace/SmartView/

In each of the version.xmls I changed the installFile from

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/smart-view-for-office/overview/index.html

to

/epmstatic/smartview/Client/SmartView.exe

or

/epmstatic/wspace/SmartView/SmartView.exe

respectively.

The executable is in each:

./epmstatic/wspace/SmartView/SmartView.exe

./epmstatic/smartview/Client/SmartView.exe

My real question is does the version.xml location have to be a relative or fixed location.  If relative, relative to what ?

After clearing server cache and tmp files, restarting, and clearing workstation cache, the link still brings me to Oracle.  Thanks in advance.
