An unexpected error occurred after deploying Performance Point Server reports to SharePoint site

Once you create reports from Performance Point Server dashboard and deploy it to SharePoint site you might get following error.

To resolve above error there are few steps you need to follow as mentioned below.


STEP 1 - DEPLOY the web part solution to the Web application

The web part solution need not be ADDED, as the Configuration Manager would have already added it to the Solution store of the SharePoint Web server during initial installation of DVSS.

Run the following STSAdm command to DEPLOY the web part solution to the second SharePoint web application. Replace Your_SharePoint_WebApp_URL with the URL of the SharePoint web application including the port number.

stsadm.exe -o deploysolution -name PSCWebParts.cab -url http://Your_SharePoint_WebApp_URL /  -local    allowgacdeployment -force

In the case of SharePoint site example referenced in this article, the command line would be:

stsadm.exe -o deploysolution -name PSCWebParts.cab -url http://test:44444/ -local   -allowgacdeployment -force  

To confirm if the web part (pscwebpart.cab) has been deployed as a solution on your SharePoint site, go to Central Administration  Operations  Global Configuration  Solution Management. (http://Your_Central_Admin_Site_URL/_admin/solutions.aspx)

STEP 2 - Copy the master page to the new SharePoint site's master page gallery (web folder view)

The master page can be found at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office PerformancePoint Server\3.0\Monitoring\Assemblies\PerformancePointDefault.master
To go to the web folder view of master page catalog for a site, go to http://test:60000/sites/Sales/_catalogs/masterpage. Select Actions Open with Windows Explorer. Copy the master page to this location.

STEP 3 - Add the following entries in web.config of the SharePoint web application

Add the following entries if any of the entries are not present in the web.config of the SharePoint web application (http://test:44444/) .

IMPORTANT: Backup the web.config file before making any updates.

After completing these three steps, the second SharePoint site (http://test:44444/sites/Sales) can be used for deploying dashboards.


Hope it will be helpful. Keep Sharing

Business Intelligence Center Template Missing

If you are missing Business Intelligence Center Template while creating site collection then you can do it as follow.

Go to Site Actions > Site Settings menu from site that you created.

Locate Site collection features under Site Collection Administration section.

Find PerformancePoint Service Site Collection Features and Activate it. If you can't find it than you need to enable enterprise feature.

Same way locate Manage site features under Site Actions section.

Enable PerformancePoint Service Site Features.

Once you follow above steps you can find Business Inteligence Center Template when you want to create site under Enterprise Tab.

Performance Point Service Feature missing from SharePoint 2010

What if you are missing Performance Point Service entry from Site collection and Web Features. I came across similar situation where I need to work on Performance Point Reports and I was not able to find option anywhere. You can find it using below steps.

Basically you won't have this options enabled unless you have enterprise version for SharePoint 2010.

You can check your SharePoint edition from Centeral Administration.

Once you click Enable Enterprise Feature you will come up with choice if for standard and enterprise. Just select Enterprise from radiobutton list and click ok. It will show you below screen to enable this features for all sites.

Just check the option and click ok. You will come up with below screen.

It will start enabling features for Web Applications, Site Collections and Sites.

Once everything is successfully done you can go to your Site and Find PerformancePoint Service Site Collection Features.

Error while deploying report from Performance Point Server to SharePoint

While deploying a report from Performance Point Server to the SharePoint, I faced following error.

I resolved the issue by simply adding safe control entry in my  web.config file.

<SafeControl Assembly="Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.WebParts, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" Namespace="Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.WebParts" TypeName="*" Safe="True" />

Hopefully it will resolve your issue as well.

Thanks,
Ashish
