Hi,

I did a custom install (CASRVR_DataTier andCASRVR_AppTier composants) on some computer (this is for a test). 

I would like to use the same security that is available with an EasyInstall:

Do you know a way to setup this security on a non-easyinstall setup?

When I try to test this Cognos Users namespace, I have the following error:

['Cognos Users']
[ ERROR ] AAA-CFG-0008 The handler class 'CognosExCJAP' cannot be loaded.
[ ERROR ] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: CognosExCJAP

Best regards,

Hi,

The error is occurring because the applicable Java jar is not included in non "Easy" installs

This is an unsupported method but you should be able to do the following from an Easy Install (on all dispatchers):

1. Copy the Namespace config and reconfigure the namespace on the "Non Easy Install" environment.

2. Copy /webapps/p2p/web-inf/lib/easy-install-cjap.jar from an "Easy Install" and place it back into your "Non Easy Install" environment.

3. Restart all dispatchers.

Note: This is entirely unsupported and could even violate the Cognos license. You should validate the license agreement accordingly

Good luck!

Hi Shawn,

Thank you for your answer.

I've able to setup this unsupported environment.

I've had to copy a cjap_directory.json file from another setup. It was also helpful to look in the easy-install-cjap-12.0.4-xxxxxxxxxx.zip.txt ("repositoryPath": "com/ibm/bi/platform/easy-install-cjap/...") and cjap-adapter-service-install-12.0.4-xxxxxxxxxx-app-inst.zip.txt ("repositoryPath": "com/ibm/bi/platform/authentication/cjap-adapter-service-install/...") files to copy some missing files too.

@Shawn Crook, this installation will be deleted because it was just for a test.

Best regards,
