Title: Cognos Theme Designer Installation
Post by: Universe1418 on 13 Mar 2015 03:10:18 AM
Hi,
Has anyone tried deploying the Cognos Theme Designer in version 10.2.1 that uses a IIS 6.0 in a Windows Server 2003? I've followed the implementation of Vers and Webcontent folder in designated path. I also allowed the .json in IIS however when accesing the application and selecting a skin to modify the error below shows:
xml is undefined
Scope: onPreviewCreated
File name: http://vnw/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js line 14 > eval
Line number: 1265
Stack:
window.THEMEDESIGNER.getCategories@../dojo16/dojo/../../themedesigner/js/dojo/ThemeDesignerMain.js:1265:8 window.THEMEDESIGNER.m_createElementCategoriesSection@../dojo16/dojo/../../themedesigner/js/dojo/ThemeDesignerMain.js:1331:20 window.THEMEDESIGNER.m_createCategoryPane@../dojo16/dojo/../../themedesigner/js/dojo/ThemeDesignerMain.js:918:4 .m_createSkeletonLoadHandler/<@../dojo16/dojo/../../themedesigner/js/dojo/Preview.js:343:5 dojo.hitch/<@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:15336 dojo._ioSetArgs/<@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:80747 _102@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:27198 _100@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:27015 dojo.Deferred/this.callback@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:27667 _102@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:27415 _100@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:27015 dojo.Deferred/this.callback@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:27667 _28d@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:83478 _286/func@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:82239 _286@http://vwnv02ax01473/cognos10/dojo16/dojo/dojo.js:14:82523

Please let me know, if someone already experienced this and how did you make it work? Thanks!

Hi,

It's been a while since I looked at Theme Designer. One thing that I recall, though, is that it doesn't seem to like you using cognosisapi.dll. How is your gateway currently configured - are you using cognos.cgi or cognosisapi.dll?

Hi MF,

I'm using cognosisapi.dll for the gateway and use the link below to access theme designer:

http://vwnv02/cognos10/themedesigner/?gateway=http://vwnv02/cognos10/cgi-bin/cognosisapi.dll

Will you be able to give some recommendations that I can try to make theme designer work? Thanks!

Try using the cgi gateway instead http://vwnv02/cognos10/themedesigner/?gateway=http://vwnv02/cognos10/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi

Hi MF,

I will try to use cognos.cgi and update this thread for the results. Thanks!

Hi MF,

did change the cognosisapi.dll to cognos.cgi however now the error is:

Unable to load http://vwnv02/cognos10/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi/css?skin=&json=&skinApp=default&dojo.preventCache=1426247045428 status:404

I found in other thread to use the link below same as what Raghuvir suggested but still same error as above.

http://vwnv02/cognos10/themedesigner/?gateway=/cognos10/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi

I checked the dojo.js file if it is missing within the webcontent but it's not..
