Title: Maintenance page for Cognos
Post by: Joern on 23 May 2016 04:24:25 AM
Hello,
how can I setup a maintenance page for my Cognos Server or better how to configure that user trying to start cognos are linked to a special site?
We are using Cognos 10.2.2 on a Windowx Server 2008 with IIS7.

Thank you.

Replace your default.htm or index.htm (located under cognos installation folder in \webcontent) by a temporary maintenance page, and when finished switch it back ?

Steps:

1. Stop Cognos
2. Rename error.html to error.html.bkp
3. Copy your maintenance html page and call it error.html
4. Start Cognos

Enjoy
