APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The install & configuration guide for C10.1.1 indicates that
    during the upgrade from a previous release of IBM Cognos to IBM
    Cognos 10 that specific files needs to be backed up from the
    previous release and then restored into the new C10 folder
    structure. This causes the C10 services not to start up
    successfully.
    

Local fix

  • Do not restore the files backed up in the previous release of IB
    M Cognos into the new release of IBM Cognos. Instead modify the
    new releases files to reflect the changes, if any, from the prev
    ious releases files.
