Error: 'Unable to Run Transforms on Common Schema" After an Upgrade of a Classic Application to an EPMA Application Does Not Complete

Error: 'Unable to Run Transforms on Common Schema" After an Upgrade of a Classic Application to an EPMA Application Does Not Complete
		Modified 19-MAR-2010

Applies to:

Hyperion Financial Management - Version: 9.3.0.1.00 to 9.3.1.4.00 - Release: 9.3 to 9.3
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Where the HFM application server has been installed on a machine that has no Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) installed, some of the Enterprise Performance Management Architect related functionality will not complete.   

In particular the upgrade of a "classic" Financial Management application to an EPMA type application is not successful.

The EPMA Job Console may show messages like this

Thu Jun 28 16:19:09 CEST 2007 SIMPLEDEMO: Starting Upgrade 
Thu Jun 28 16:19:10 CEST 2007 SIMPLEDEMO: Changing product 
application type to BPMA 
Thu Jun 28 16:19:20 CEST 2007 SIMPLEDEMO: Getting Metadata 
Thu Jun 28 16:19:27 CEST 2007 SIMPLEDEMO: Processing Metadata 
Thu Jun 28 16:19:28 CEST 2007 SIMPLEDEMO: ERROR Unable to run 
transforms on common schema. 
Total Errors: 1 Total Warnings: 0

and there may be visible error messages in the HsvEventLog.log file of one or more of the Financial Management application servers.   This file can usually be found in one of these two locations....

• c:\Hyperion\Financial Management\Server Working Folder (Release 9.3.0.x and earlier)
• c:\Hyperion\logs\hfm (in Hyperion System 9 Release 9.3.1)

Additionally a file called applicationname_Metadataxxxxxx.xml may be deposited in a temporary folder (where xxxxxx is a 6 digit numeric string) containing the message

 Interface not registered(HFM:80040155)

Cause

This is due to the issues discussed in BUG 6587974

At this time it is expected that 9.3.x.x releases will be the last releases where a workaround is necessary for this issue.

Solution

The workaround at this time is to:
1. Install Microsoft Internet Information Services on each Financial Management application server.  

2. Reboot the servers and restart any necessary Oracle Hyperion System 9 services.

Please contact Technical Support if you are still having problems.
