An internal error occurred while calling the ‘initInstance’ API.
(Error: WIS 30270)
When trying to create a new Webi document with any user that is not a member of the Enterprise Admin group I receive the WIS 30270 error when Webi is Creating the session. It doesn’t matter which universe I try to use be it my own or any of the sample universes. As soon as I add the user to the Admin group for Enterprise I have no issues.
I googled this error code and I fond on another site that this is Java related. This article stated that the user trying to create the report did not have admin rights to the java plug in on the physical box that I was using for my session. The article went on to say that if I uninstalled the plug in and reinstalled is under a user that has admin rights to the box it would fix this issue. I know I know we are talking apples and oranges here because one is Enterprise rights and the other is machine/network rights but I thought I would try it out.
So I got the network admin, had him uninstall the Java plug in. Then while still logged in as the admin to the physical machine had him launch Infoview (logged in as info admin) and create a new Webi document. This reinstalled the Java plug in. After he was done while still logged in to the physical box as the admin, we logged into Enterprise under a user who was not a member of the enterprise admin group, same error!!!
Here is what I have tested. I created a new user, Set full control object level rights to the universe, the connection, and the webi application. I blew the security wide open. I then tried to create a new webi document, same thing. As soon as I added the new user to the Enterprise Admin group, worked fine!!
I am at a complete loss. The behavior of this product makes no sense to me. This is obviously and enterprise security issue, but what? Why would being a member of the admin group make the difference especially when I set object level security wide open on the specific user?
I am running a brand new install of XI R1 on a single XP machine using the .net Infoview. Tomcat was not installed. Performance and Dashboard manger are not installed .This is a non clustered environment. My production Universe is against a SQL database. This is a very vanilla install.
