Hi all,
When i open cognos 8.4 configuration i am getting only IBM cognos logo page and loading configuration msg in explorer tab i didnt get any content in explorer tab.
I restarted cognos services twice but no luck....
Please help me on this.
OS - winXP.
Thanks,
Naga
Hmmmm. It sounds like your cogstartup.xml may be corrupted. Try this:
In Windows Explorer navigate to <Install directory>\IBM\cognos\c10\configuration
Rename cogstartup.xml to cogstartup.old
Launch Cognos Configuration and see if you get past the splash screen.
If so, you will need to re-enter your config settings from scratch.
Good luck!

MFGF - you beat me to it!
I was just posting it when I got your post...
Hope that helps you out, Naga.
Thanks guys i deleted cogstartup.xml and recreated now its working fine.
Better late then never:
If you look in /configuration you will see multiple cogstartup_<timestamp>.xml files.
(at least if cognos has run before).
Rename an older file to cogstartup.xml and start configuration. That can do the trick also ...
