Sitecore: DMS 7.1 Analytics is disabled

Question

I am trying to get Sitecore DMS 7.1 working. I followed the instructions on the sitecore support pages. I triple checked all the steps referred to on this website.

I have looked in the log file and i am getting.

3112 10:20:35 ERROR Application error.
Exception: System.Web.HttpException

Help. We have other sitecore sites and I was able to get it working on sitecore 7 platform.

Answer 1

Here is the logic that is causing the error to be thrown:

public static bool Enabled
{
    get
    {
        if (Settings.GetBoolSetting("Analytics.Enabled", false))
            return Sitecore.SecurityModel.License.License.HasModule("Sitecore.OMS");
        else
            return false;
    }
}

So you can see that there are 2 criteria that need to be met.

First, the "Analytics.Enabled" setting in the analytics config file need to be set to true. It should look like the following.

<!--
     ANALYTICS ENABLED
     Determines whether analytics is enabled or not.
     Default: true  
-->
<setting name="Analytics.Enabled" value="true" />

Second, your license needs to include DMS (It's refers to it as "OMS" internally).

if (Context.Site.EnableAnalytics)
{
...
}
