Error description

  • Transformer auto signon does not work in batch when the password
    saved in the model contains special character (e.g. Ampersand
    '&'). This happens for models based on a Cognos 10 package. When
    the cube is built interactively it is no problem to logon with
    the password containing the '&'.
