  • 1.  Button Labels on the Main Homepage Navigation Not Displaying Correctly

    Posted Mon September 18, 2023 09:06 AM

    This is occurring on one of our servers that is running Cognos 11.0.13. None of the other servers on 11.0.13 are being affected. The names of the objects displayed on the main navigation are including % and other icons instead of the standard names. Has anyone ever experienced this?

    Hi Elizabeth,

    It looks like Cognos is unable to retrieve your default language. You can try to define a language (I don't have Cognos Analytics v11.0.x to provide screenshoots) to see what is wrong.

    Is it true for every user or just for a specific user? Did you try to log in "private mode" (it might be a cache issue)?

    Best regards,

    I will try defining the language. It is happening for every user. When it happened to my user, it initially loaded correctly but changed after a ran a report.

    Hi Elizabeth,

    Did you install a fixpack or any update on this server? I guess you need to create a case with IBM Support if you are a supported customer.

    Best regards,
