cms not coming up and throwing the parser error

from http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?p=891103

I just ran into this today; that is the cms not coming up and throwing the parser error. SAP fixed the problem. Here are the steps: 

Attempted to log in to BI Launchpad / CMC after reboot of virtual machine. User sees error message that server is not found or down. 

Launched CCM and selected SIA --> Properties --> Configuration. User sees error message Failed to retrieve cluster name from the dat 
abase. 

Reason: Parser failed to initialize... 

Resolution: 

- Observed that, we were not able to change the CMS database name from CCM. 
- Tried to Recreate SIA, however it was not letting us to go through after entering dabase name and password. 
- Only a small window without any error was popping up. 
- Checked the trace and found error in CMS.log and SVCMgr.logs as: 
\sqlruleClasses.cpp:294). (false : jsqlprs::findDFA_LLR(): Cannot find sqlrule.llr and sqlrule.dfa. Please check your Business Objec 
ts executable directories. Alternatively, you can set the SQLRULEDIRECTORY system environment variable.). 
- Searched for the two files : sqlrule.llr and sqlrule.dfa and found in the following directory: 
C:\Program Files\SAP Business Objects\InstallData\InstallCache\platform. services.cms.cpp.dbcheck-4.0-core-64\14.0.2.364 

- Copied and pasted both the files to.. 
.\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64 folder 
- Started SIA and all the services came fine.
