BusinessObjects Board

dead dashboard?

I have a dashboard built over a simple SQL Server database. Ten days ago, it would initialise in a couple of seconds… I come back from a week off work and now it won’t initialise at all.

I go back and check an earlier version - same problem, so it’s not a file corruption.

Strip out all but one connection - same problem.

Pull out the SQL (of that one remaining connection) and run independently - runs OK. So the database is up and the passwords still work.

… before I either tear my hair out or go and shout at somebody, what else can I check? Why has this simple dashboard just STOPPED WORKING?

ETA: Just manually run the aspx script in a browser that the connection calls. That too is taking forever/hanging. So it looks like some kind of connectivity issue but I don’t know enough about it to go tell the techies what’s wrong. And I’m not allowed fiddler or anything like that…
