  • 1.  Cognos Search Function

    Posted 04/07/22 07:04 AM
    Hi All,

    We are using Cognos Analytics, version 11.1.7.  Every now and then, our search function displays the message "There was an error with your search."

    Our procedure then is to stop the IBM Service, delete the folder "Search" in .../IBM/cognos/analytics/data and restart the IBM Service.

    This has worked fine in the past, but for some reason it no longer does.  We've also tried to restart the server iso only the IBM services, to no avail.

    Is there anything wrong with our procedure or is there anything else that we can try? 

    Thank you for your help!
    Stephan

    Hi,

    I have some issues with search. I'm using Linux and my problem was with inodes, the percentage of use raise to 100%.

    If you are running on Linux - you might want to checkout my small script on github. It checks for recommended versa actual settings of the ulimits.
