Hi All,
I have a requirement to Configure the Cognos 10 gateway so there is no virtual directory component in the URL:
- typically a URL will be of the form - "https://intra.bi.ca/c10" Can we configure IIS to omit the sub-directory in the URL but still able to launch the Cognos application? Example "https/intra.c10bi.ca"
If this is possible, I would appreciate the details on how to configure IIS.
Thank you,

Is this simply so they can enter a server name (e.g. "intra.c10bi.ca") to get to Cognos? If so, a simple redirect on the site root will take care of that.
https://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/httpredirect (https://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/httpredirect)
Agree with the redirect. You can also try changing the directory of the Default Web Site to point to the <c10_install>\webcontent folder (and follow all other setup steps from this article: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/library/cognos/infrastructure/web_servers/page599.html)
