  • 1.  Linux Install - Apache Config Template Needed

    Posted 02/02/23 05:42 AM
    Hello,

    I am looking to get Apache configured for our Linux installation by following this link in the documentation: Configuring Cognos Analytics with either Apache HTTP Server or IBM HTTP Server 

    This link references a "cognos.conf" file. Where can I find this file? Do I need to create it? If so, does anyone have a basic example we can start from please?

    Additionally, has anyone has luck enabling CORS? We are trying to test iframe embedding from our local device and running into this CORS issue.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    If you look in <install_location>/cgi-bin/templates, you should find a number of different sample configuration files suitable for different versions of Apache HTTP Server and IBM HTTP Server. Copy the relevant sample configuration file to the <install location>/conf folder, and rename the copy to cognos.conf.

    Cheers!

    MF.

    Hey Mark,

    Thanks for the reply. I found those and they all have load balancing configs in them. Is that needed or can I remove from there?

    It depends on your onganizaton. you can comment it, If your organization uses F5 or other load balancing product. 

    Also have to enter the gateway server ip address in the httpd  file ( listen: servername:port default port no 80

    Okay got that setup. Is there a way to configure this where /ibmcognos is not needed?

    For example server.com/ibmcognos/bi to be server.com/bi
