Hi,

Thats a common error when you install one patch over the other. Check this note KBA1664955.

The suggested repair may not work, so ideally after trying this you should uninstall everything and reinstall.

Symptom

• Testing CMC connection to repository fails.
• Data Services Repository Connection Status in CMC is InActive.
• There is a problem to connect to repository: The endpoint reference (EPR) for the operation not found is <our server>/services/DS.AdminService?preferable-false and the WSA Action = urn:testRepoConnection

Environment

• SAP BusinessObjects 4.x
• SAP Data Services 4.x

Reproducing the Issue

1. Launch the Central Management Console (CMC).
2. Select Data Services.
3. Manage> Configure repository.
4. Fill the form in order to register the DS 4.x repository.
5. Test Connection and receive the error.
