  • 1.  Cognos Audit Extention

    Posted 08/17/20 02:19 AM
    Hi All,

    I try to install the Cognos Audit Extention within my environment (Window based).
    Followed the installation instruction posted by IBM and Google ;-)

    When trying to apply within the "Cognos Audit Extension Console", I failled to pass this one with a error:

    "Error: ERROR - Unable to connect to database - check the settings are correct."
     

    When I test with Cognos Configuration and connect to the Audit Extention DB with the same username/password, it's passed.
    So I know the rights / username / password / driver is ok.
    But when doing it from the Extentionconsole -http://<servername>:<port>/AuditExt/AuditServlet- I am getting this error.

    Any suggestions ?
    And what log file should I look trace what's wrong ?

    Kind Regards,

    Hi Chris

    What version of Cognos Analytics are you using this with? And what url did you use to download the extension? There are multiple versions out there... just wants to be sure you are using a good combination ;-)
