Dashboard using query browser having issue with SWF file

Hi Experts,
I have dashboard using BO 4.0.
The dashboard is using query browser as data provider. When I try to export it to stand alone flash file and trying to open swf file using internet explorer is it stuck in Initializing.

Any ideas please??

Tried HTML, PDF etc… No luck.

Does it prompt you to log into BI? If so what kind of authentication are you using?

I am assuming that you did not have an issue saving the dashboard to BI when you created the dashboard

It is prompting me for the authentication. I am using LDAP.

Unfortunately I am using Enterprise and do not have a way of testing LDAP. Does the universe work in IDT? And does the dashboard preview correctly in Dashboards?

There are so many things that could go ‘wrong’. Not sure if it is a rights issue (firewall?), corrupted dashboard, corrupted UNX, flash issue, etc.

I am also facing the same issue. I using Dashboard 4.0 sp5.

Any solution for this?

This is one of the limitations of Query Browser connected dashboards - they can only be viewed in LaunchPad (or the SAP BI app if mobile). You cannot view the dashboard as a standalone swf file, as you can with some of the other connectivity options.
