  • 1.  Cognos Schedules are not Running

    Posted 22 days ago

    Hi Everyone,

    Since last 15 hours the scheduled reports are not running in our Cognos production environment.

    when we run reports manually, they are running but when we schedule the report, schedule is not starting.

    could you please provide your suggestions here what might be the issue ?

    And will rebooting the dispatchers resolve this issue ?

    Thanks,
    Lokesh

    Maybe the credentials of the user that is used to run the scheule is not longer valid. In this case you do not see anything in past run and also nothing in audit-db (only in some log file). Log on as this uses (and maybe click a renew credentials) should solve this problem.

    Hi Michael,

    Thank you for your response.

    There is no issue with user credentials. Actually, all schedules which are there in our production environment were not started running.

    We have stopped Cognos services in dispatchers and content manager and ran NC Drop script in Cognos Notify DB. Then started Cognos services so the problem got resolved.

    Thank You ,

    Hello,

    can you please check if the user who is owning the schedule has changed the password. If yes, login as the user who is running the schedule and open the user's personal profile and recreate the credentials. I hope it helps.

    If the scheduled report was working fine earlier and has suddenly stopped, there may be a few potential issues to consider. One common reason could be that the user changed their network password but did not renew their credentials, which would prevent the scheduled report from running.

    To troubleshoot this issue, you can:

    1. Renew your credentials to ensure they are up to date.
    2. Restart the servers to refresh the system.
    3. Consult your administrator, who can check the admin console for any specific errors or configurations that might be affecting the report.

    Taking these steps should help you identify and resolve the issue.

    This happens to me every year.  I disable and re-enable the scheduler.  That seems to fix things (pre 11.2.4 version).  I would hope this doesn't happen with the newer version.   Also, the credential check is a good suggestion.  We had someone retire and had to reassign all scheduled reports under her access.  

    Good Luck
