Problem
The following error is returned in the Burst or XDC activity log on OPEN or during cataloging:
Error ==> BI4 Error (Error Location: OpenWebiDocument_Basic) (Remote Message: Internal error ("The entity name must immediately follow the '&' in the entity reference.") (WSR 00999))
Cause
The error occurs when InfoBurst makes a request to BusinessObjects to OPEN a report. The error is internal to BusinessObjects and is not with control of InfoBurst. The cause of the issue is unknown.
Solution
Users experiencing this issue report success with this procedure:
Open the report in BI LaunchPad
Refresh the report
Save the report (Use the SAVE option. SAVE AS should not be used as it creates a new report object in BusinessObjects and may invalidate the reference in InfoBurst)
Re-run the affected burst or re-catalog the report
