Financial Reporting 11.1.2.4.706 web designer 403-Forbidden error

The latest patch for Hyperion Financial Reporting, which is Patch Set Update 11.1.2.4.706, contains a flaw that causes the web designer to be unusable.  We get a 403-Forbidden error when trying to connect to the web designer URL http://OHShost:19000/frdesigner

This worked in PSUs 11.1.2.4.700 through 11.1.2.4.705.

I've opened an SR with Oracle and will share the solution once it is discovered.

    1. I did receive an update from Oracle. The decision to remove the direct access to /frdesigner was apparently deliberate. When applying .705 or higher, it is necessary to redeploy the Financial Reporting web application and also restart Foundation. After this is done, a new link appears within the Tools menu in Workspace that allows a user to access the HFR web designer.
