Disabling certificate checking for Microsoft ASP.NET

When the IBM® Cognos® Controller 10.1 client does not have internet access, Cognos Controller runs slow.

The solution for this problem is to provide internet access to the Cognos Controller client.

If it is not possible to provide internet access to the Cognos Controller client, then disable the checking of the .NET certificate for all applications.

If it is not possible to disable the checking of the .NET certificate for all applications, then disable the checking of the certificate for Microsoft Excel, Cognos Controller, and Microsoft ASP.NET.

Perform the next steps to disable the certificate checking for Microsoft ASP.NET.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the system that runs the Cognos Controller application server.
  2. In a text editor, such as Microsoft Notepad, open the Aspnet.config file that is in a location such as: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727.
  3. In the file add the line <generatePublisherEvidence enabled="false"/> as follows: 
    <configuration> 
<runtime> 
<generatePublisherEvidence enabled="false"/> 
</runtime> 
</configuration>
  4. Save and close the file.
