After passing userid and password in URL and page load it ask for user and password, seems pentaho server does not recognize the parameters. check here for the workaround (it's on the comments):  http://jira.pentaho.com/browse/BISERVER-10708 Workaround is to edit the system/applicationContext-spring-security.xml file and change the parameters for the filterChainProxy. Lines 22 and 23 should be replaced by:         /api/**=securityContextHolderAwareRequestFilterForWS,httpSessionPentahoSessionContextIntegrationFilter,httpSessionContextIntegrationFilter,requestParameterProcessingFilter,basicProcessingFilter,anonymousProcessingFilter,exceptionTranslationFilterForWS,filterInvocationInterceptorForWS         /plugin/**=securityContextHolderAwareRequestFilterForWS,httpSessionPentahoSessionContextIntegrationFilter,httpSessionContextIntegrationFilter,requestParameterProcessingFilter,basicProcessingFilter,anonymousProcessingFilter,exceptionTranslationFilterForWS,filterInvocationInterce

Installed Pentaho Repository Synchronizer with branch Trunk This plugin copies a version of libpensol.*.jar to the server's WEB-INF/lib. It's possible that on Windows boxes there's an error upgrading the repositorySynchronizer. If that happens, stop the server and delete the WEB-INF/lib/libpensol.* jar file(s)

To hide the .CDA files, its no use to the end user to see the datasource in the treeview so edit: biserver-ce/pentaho-solutions/system/cda/ plugin.xml And comment the lines between: <!– <content-types> … </content-types> //–>
