hi
please check this is the first time you are installing and configuring.Because this error is mostly like to be multiple instalation and configuration.
So please remove whole cognos8 from the machine and check that no traces of cognos8 present anywhere in the machine and start fresh installation cofiguration.If you get same problem let me know.

This issue was resolved. The problem is with content store. The reason may be that either the content store is corrupt in partiall or full. Best resolution is to remove Content Store & recreate it.

Look in the error report above, first 9 lines hint to corruption of content store.

Experts Thanks for your response. I know I can count on you people.

Cheers.
