Art of BI: DAC Error Message – No Physical folder information found for PLP

Working on a OBI Apps project, I was getting the DAC configurations ready and bumped into the following error message, stating “Error whle calculating build information!”.  The message stated “MESSAGE:::No physical folder information found for PLP”.   This occured when I was trying to build my newly created execution plan.

Solution

I had created a new execution plan and added my subject area(s) but forgot to click the “Generate” button on the Parameters sub-tab after I had selected the subject areas that I wanted built for that particular execution plan.  To fix the error, I just highlighted the newly created execution plan, clicked the Parameters sub-tab and clicked “Generate ”

This is a very low level issue for the DAC but the issue and solution were worth mentioning.  This occured on the DAC Windows client version 10.1.3.4.1.
