FRM0008-Universe got corrupted

HI B :mrgreen: B member,
I have encountered serious problem with my universe. I am getting error FRM0008 while opening the universe after importing from repository. It’s very important universe. Is there any way to recover this.

Please Reply as soon as possible.

Can you not reinstate from a BIAR file or System DB and filestore back up?

Hi Makk1,
Thanks for reply.
But i don’t have a back up in BIAR, system db and filestore.

Any other way?

Well, you now have found the reason why you should take regular back ups.

What is the exact error message FRM0008 is normally a permissions issue?

Hi,
yes, i got to know the importance of backup. You are right, FRM0008 is permission issue but I have mistaken typed wrong error no. It is FRM0003.

This can sometimes happen if Designer crashes when you have the universe opened.

Firstly close Designer and ensure that there is no designer.exe process running in the task manager. If there is a process running, then kill it and try importing again.

Secondly, try importing the universe on another PC. If this works, it means you’ll probably need to clear the local Business Objects document s from your PC

Cool :), I would make regular BIAR back ups in future, not everything of this nature can always be saved…

Hi,
I tried very strage trick.
I got the location of universe in filestore and copied the .unv file from there
Created a sample universe using same connection and got the location of new universe on filestore.
changed name of corrupted unv as that of new unv and overwritten old unv with new unv.
then exported it from repository and i got everything back for that universe.

Isn’t it great !!

but will not work always so be careful. !!

satish.
