Hi All,

I uninstalled SAP BODS 4.1 SP1 on Windows 7 Enterprise. Re-installed the same.

I am getting the below error when I start the BODS service.

Windows could not start the BusinessObjects Data Services on Local Computer.

Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

Before the BODS installation no issue for BO. But now BO also not working.

CMC Login Error:

HTTP Status 500 - while trying to invoke the method java.util.Properties.entrySet() of an object loaded from local variable 'globalProperties'

type Exception report

noteThe full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/7.0.32 logs.

Please help me.

Thanks in advance.
