Configuring Supported MIME Types in Microsoft Internet Information Services

If you use Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0, then for IBM® Cognos® Workspace to load successfully, you must define the MIME type that IBM Cognos Workspace uses.

Procedure

  1. Open the Microsoft IIS management console.
  2. Right-click the local computer name, and click Properties.
  3. Click MIME Types.
  4. Click New.
  5. In the Extension box, type .cfg.
  6. In the MIME Type box, type text/plain.
  7. Apply the new settings.

    The changes will take effect when the worker process recycles. To avoid waiting, you can restart the World Wide Web Publishing Service.
