Hi,
The problem seems to be in the Content store.
Please check the content store configuration for correct parameters (DB server name, DB name,UserID and password). Also wait for some time (2-3 min) after the reportnet service starts and then open the cognos connection.

Also check the log file "crn.log" for the specific error messages. If it says the content manager failed to start then this problem is definitely because of wornd configuration of Content Store.

Earlier I had experienced the same error. I think this is something  about the content store service does not start properly or not started at all. If  you are running reportnet on windows o/s open the "Task manager" window and see whether "BIBusTkserver" process is running or not. In order to use the reportnet the above process and the "Cognosbootstrapper" process should be running.

Hope this helps

Your reportnet jce cert has expired, and needs to be replaced before you can save any configuration data.
