** Troubleshooting ** 'Could not login to TM1 ... SystemServerClientNotFound' error when attempting to run initial publish

Troubleshooting


Problem

User launches FAP client ("IBM Cognos FAP") from the start menu. User logs on. User clicks tab 'data marts' and highlights the relevant data mart. User clicks "Start" (to start the initial publish).

After a few seconds, the 'status' changes to 'Error'. User clicks the 'logs' tab. Inside there, there is a ‘CRITICAL’ error saying “Could not login to TM1”
If the user hovers their mouse over that error, a new pop-up message is seen:
SystemServerClientNotFound

In the FAP server's 'error.log' file (default location here: C:\Program Files\ibm\cognos\ccr_64\Server\FAP) there is the following entry:

11:59:27,018 | ERROR [fap.service.schedule.Scheduler] [schedulerThread], Could not logon to TM1
