I have noticed that many people asking the custom installation guide / custom administration guide, you may find the custom guide at help.sap.com named "xi4_bip_install_win_en" and for custom administration "xi4_bip_admin_en". These stand for both Edge and Enterprise editions. Warm Regards, Raza Kashif +923214194150 Reply

First, Please don't install 2 BO versions on same machine, its major cause of many idiotic problems. Install client tools on a 64 bit platform. Please re-start file repository servers and make sure setting is correct. http://help.sap.com/bobi/ ->> see guides relevant to your problem. Thanks ! RK Reply
