Are you able to Cognos Splash page?

Thanks for your reply.
I did not see the splash. I think the issue is about apache http server.
The index.html in webcontent folder is not shown so there is no chance for cognos.cgi to be called.

That's certainly my fault. so careless.

You need to start the http server with the configuration file like
apachectl -f /xx/xx/conf/httpd.conf stop/start
