Hi,

I would start by reading through the Architecture and Deployment Guide http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/data/cognos/documentation/docs/en/10.2.2/crn_arch.pdf
Then, as suggested above by sunosoft, read the Installation and Configuration Guide http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/data/cognos/documentation/docs/en/10.2.2/inst_cr_winux.pdf

Cheers!

MF.

Please refer the administration guide for the detailed steps....

To begin with Check for the RAM size ,directory size where your going to install have a adequate free memory and also check for the appropriate permissions, check the db client have been installed and supported for your version and set your environment variables ...If your on Linux platform check for appropriate OS library files like openmotif 2X .
