Oracle BI Answers Access Prohibited


Yester day I saw something like ‘Access prohibited’. I have no clue why and from where it has come. So started investigating and I could reproduced it.

Dash Board says ‘You are not currently authorized to use Oracle BI Answers. If you would like to use this powerful capability, please contact this site's administrator. .Available Links: Dashboards’.

This screen occurs because of following sequences.
1 Using answers privilege log on to dash board
2 Click Answers Link
3 Sign out from this page i.e. url look like http://biservername/analytis/saw.dll? Answers&_scid=sessionid
Sample: http://localhost/analytics/saw.dll?Answers&_scid=eBsXeMHWIww
4 In the above page re-logon using un-authorized to Answers user.
5 As soon as logon message will be Access Prohibited.

It’s because of Url path suppose to land up user in Answers pages.
