TR1008 Cognos.INI and Transformer 8.4 Issue

Hi Guys,

I was getting this error when i was trying to use my first IQD.Could not figure it out for long time below is the solution from IT toolbox

Hi folkz,
there is no Cognos.ini in Cognos 8 Transformer.
The file you search for is cs7g.ini.
[Location]
Install Location=.\
Rendition Base Location=.\
[Services]
COGNLSTAB=.\coglang.tab
SRVCMSGS=.\srvcmsgs_en.msg
CTDBA=ctdba,ctdba15
[Databases]
Datasource name=connection string

Below is my connection string.Datasource name you will get in IQD, or your FM or your congos admin
configuration.Connection string you will get when you go to adminstration and test the datasource
.Once you do this the transformer will ask you for userid and password of database
