By mistake I deleted the shared folder from catalog (/analytics), what options do I have now. I have OBIEE 11.1.1.9 installation on linux server.
I was able to fix this by re-creating the catalog from scratch,
following below steps:
1. Go to <obi_installation>\instances\instance1\config\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1
2. Open your instanceconfig.xml file
3. Find <CatalogPath> and </CatalogPath> tags
4. Write the new catalong name that you want to create (suppose xyz) then your tag should look like this
<CatalogPath><obi_installation>\instances\instance1/bifoundation/OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent/coreapplication_obips1/catalog/xyz</CatalogPath>
5. Save the file and start/re-start the BI presentation service (using opmnctl is faster)
6. It automatically creates the "xyz" catalog, once we start our presentation service and you need not to create anything manually..
