After Cognos 10 Install not able to publish model using framework manager

Hi Guys

I had installed Cognos10 on my laptop recently.Had imported cognos10 samples to oracle database .I was able to create reports using gosales and gosalesdw package properly .However when i tried to open any .cpf file (Model) it was showing as verifying security and nothing was happening .It was giving a blank screen .

So i found out reason for it .

When you install Cognos10 make sure that you install Cognos10 BI reporting and Cognos10 Framework manager in a separate folder and allow full access to all authenticated users as well as user-PC to access the folder .

For this .. Right click on folder in which you have installed Cognos10 BI reporting , go to security tab and click on advanced .Give ful permission to every user if its you home laptop .This should solve your issue .

Remember the first line in cognos installation .The user should have admin rights on system .It means that the user should have full permission on every folder that you use for cognos10 installation.

If still you are not able to connect then .. How to debug the issue .

Copy your gateway URI from framework manager configuration to your internet explorer and see if the cognos10 public folders opens or not.In normal case it should open fine ,but if its not opening then thats the issue your URI has a problem .

Similar case with your gateway URI .when pasted in internet explorer it will open public folder page but the page will be broken .You will wont be able to see the public folder or my folder clearly only names no images .But that is all right .It means your dispatcher URI is correct.

Below is my Gateway URI for cognos10

http://localhost:80/ibmcognos/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi

It has a issue .. after localhost:80/cognos10 should come . where cognos10 is a alias that i have created in IIS or apache web server .

http://localhost:8080/cognos10/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi --correct URI

Change it and Framework manager connects properly .
