Error description

  • When a portal page with a Cognos Navigator and Cognos viewer
    portlet are configured using a channel to display the contents
    of the selected report in the navigator into the viewer portlet,
    and the reports themselves are set with overrides to always run
    the report in format X (other than HTML) the report will show
    the saved output, not run the report anew. This can be
    determined by the timestamp of the output. The expected behavior
    would be to have the report run based on the parameters it is
    configured with in Cognos Connection.
    

Local fix

  • Set a default report in the Viewer portlet, ponting to the updat
    ed report. Edit the options for the report, match with what is c
    onfigured in Cognos Configuration and then remove the default re
    port. The report now runs as expected.
