User request is completed. (Ran out of memory)

Unable to Run/Edit particular MicroStrategy reports ue to the following error:

User request is completed. (Ran out of memory)

User request is completed.
(Ran out of memory)




The above issue appeared in MSTR Web Universal version 10.5

We tried the below options without any luck:
1. i-server restart
2. Web server restart
3. clear document cache/dataset cache
4. Web server cache clear as below:



The correct option is to increase the contract memory settings:

Using the Memory Contract Manager

The MCM settings are in the Intelligence Server Configuration Editor, in the Governing Rules: Default: Memory Settings category.
The Enable single memory allocation governing option lets you specify how much memory can be reserved for a single Intelligence Server operation at a time. When this option is enabled, each memory request is compared to the Maximum single allocation size (MBytes) setting. If the request exceeds this limit, the request is denied. For example, if the allocation limit is set to 100 MB and a request is made for 120 MB, the request is denied, but a request for 90 MB is allowed.

Microstrategy  Dossiers With the release of MicroStrategy 10.9, we’ve taken a leap forward in our dashboarding capabilities by simplifying the user experience, adding storytelling, and collaboration.MSTR has  evolved dashboards to the point that they are more than dashboards - they are  interactive, collaborative analytic stories . Ultimately, it was time to go beyond dashboards, both in concept and in name, and so  the've  renamed VI dashboards to  ‘ dossiers ’.  Dossiers can be created by using the new Desktop product or Workstation or simply from the Web interface which replaces Visual Insights. All the existing visual Insights dashboards will be converted to Dossiers   With MicroStrategy 10.9, there was an active focus on making it easier to build dashboards for the widest audience of end users. To achieve this, some key new capabilities were added that make it easier to author, read, interact and collaborate on dashboards ...

MicroStrategy URL API Parameters

MicroStrategy URL Structure The following table summarizes the root URL structure used for every request to MicroStrategy Web. Environment Main Application URL Administration URL J2EE http://webserver/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrWeb http://webserver/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrWebAdmin .NET http://webserver/MicroStrategy/asp/Main.aspx http://webserver/MicroStrategy/asp/Admin.aspx Every request sent to MicroStrategy Web calls a central controller. Parameters are appended to  Main.aspx  or  mstrWeb  (in a .NET and J2EE environment, respectively) to indicate to the controller how the request should be internally forwarded and handled.

Configure a report for use with Bulk Export in MicroStrategy

Configure a report for use with Bulk Export in MicroStrategy The Bulk Export feature enables a large report to be saved as a delimited text file. Using this feature, it is possible to retrieve result sets from a large dataset without having to load the entire dataset into memory. PS:  Once a report is setup for bulk export it cannot be used as a regular report. So if the report needs to be run as a normal report and as a bulk export report, the first step is to make a copy of the report for use with bulk export. Configure Bulk Export Bulk Export options are only available in MicroStrategy Developer. Open a 3-tier connection using MicroStrategy Developer and edit the desired report. Go to 'Data' on the top menu bar. Select 'Configure Bulk Export': Specify any additional desired configuration options. General Settings Bulk export database instance : This is the database instance to use to store the bulk export results. Temporary tables w...

Microstrategy Document Editor Sections Important Notes:

Microstrategy Document Editor Sections Important Notes: The Layout area is in the center of the Document Editor interface and provides the framework for precisely controlling where controls (such as text fields, grid and graph reports, images, and widgets) are displayed when the document is viewed in different display modes, printed, exported, emailed, and so on. To add data to the document, drag objects from the  Dataset Objects  panel and drop them into the  Layout  area. Controls are rendered differently depending on what section they are placed in, as described below:   Page Header : The control is displayed at the top of each page in the document. By default, if a document contains multiple layouts, the same Page Header is displayed for all layouts in the document. You can change this setting so that each layout has a separate Page Header. Document Header : The control is displayed once at the beginning of the document, immediately below the Page Header sec...

Star Schemas issue fixes in Modelling of Microstartegy

Star Schemas issue fixes in Modelling of Microstartegy Explanation This schema is characterized by one lookup table per dimension, with base tables at the lowest level. This is the fastest way to set up a data warehouse: This type of schemas is supported but has restrictions such as when adding aggregate tables: Problem Double counting. According to the diagram above, a report that contains month and the a metric SUM(SALES_AMT) will go to the aggregate table and join to the column to retrieve the description from the table. Since the column is not unique in its lookup table, the results will appear duplicated. Recommendation MicroStrategy engine is optimized to work with snowflake schemas, where each attribute level has a distinct lookup table. Star schemas are supported with restrictions, as long as fact tables are not at a higher level than the dimension tables to which they are joined. Consult the following MicroStrategy Knowledgebase document for further information....

Types of filters in Microstrategy

Types of filters in Microstrategy Below are the types of filters: 1. Attribute qualification filter These types of qualifications restrict data related to attributes on the report. a) Attribute form qualification Filters data related to a business attribute’s form(s), such as ID or description. •  For example, the attribute Customer has the forms ID, First Name, Last Name, Address, and Birth Date. An attribute form qualification might filter on the form Last Name, the operator Begins With, and the letter H. The results show a list of customers whose last names start with the letter H. b) Attribute element list qualification Filters data related to a business attribute’s elements, such as New York, Washington, and San Francisco, which are elements of the attribute City. • For example, the attribute Customer has the elements John Smith, Jane Doe, William Hill, and so on. An attribute element list qualification can filter data to display only those customer...

display a group horizontally in MSTR document

Display a group horizontally in MSTR document By default,  groups are displayed vertically in a document.  This means that the detail sections are displayed below the Group Header. For example, a document is grouped by Year. The Detail section includes revenue and profit information by region.  Displaying the group vertically yields the following document: For certain documents, displaying and printing the group horizontally is desired. When displayed horizontally, the detail sections are displayed next to the Group Header, running horizontally across the page. The example given above, if displayed horizontally, shows a row containing the year, and then, for each region, the Region, Revenue, and Profit. When the document is viewed as a PDF, it displays as shown below: When being designed, the document with horizontal display looks like the following in MicroStrategy Developer: The sections within the group are turned sideways and listed horizontally...

Types of prompts in Microstrategy

Types of prompts in Microstrategy The different types of prompts allow you to create a  prompt  for nearly every part of a report. Prompts can be used in many objects including reports, filters, metrics, and custom groups, but all prompts require user interaction when the report is executed. The correct prompt type to create depends on what report objects you want users to be able to base a filter on to filter data, as described in the list below. Filter definition prompts   allow users to determine how the report's data is filtered, based on one of the following objects: Attributes in a hierarchy : Users can select prompt answers from one or more attribute elements from one or more attributes. The attribute elements that they select are used to filter data displayed on the report. This prompt lets you give users the largest number of attribute elements to choose from when they answer the prompt to define their filtering criteria. For example, on a repor...
