Hi All,
Please provide steps by step instruction to Install IBM Cognos 8 Business Intelligence 8.4.1 Fix Pack 1 in Linux environment
Please let me know how to open cognos configuration v 8.4 in Linux environment.
Thanks,
Naga
Hi,
It's all in the Installation and Configuration Guide:
http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/data/cognos/documentation/docs/en/8.4.1/inst_cr_winux.pdf
Look at Chapter 6. It details things like the umask you will need. If you have a GUI such as X-windows available it will be easier than a silent install, however the instructions for both are included.

Hi MFGF,
Can you please tell me how many component is coming with cognos 8.4.1 FP 4 becoz when i tru to install FP i can see only 122 components.
After installing Fixpack i can see info cmplst.txt i am not sure the Fixpack installed successfully?
Attched cmplst.txt file
If you look in the "Product Update" section of the cmplst.txt you should see the FP entry there.
A quick "diff <cognos>/uninstall/backup/update_<date>_<time>/cmplst <cognos>/cmplst.txt" will give you what has been updated.
These are the version numbers for 8.4.1:
RP1 102.18
FP1 103.16
FP2 104.13
FP3 105.13** - This version was posted then quickly pulled due to a bug (If your running this UPGRADE ASAP)
FP3 105.14
FP4 106.12
FP5 107.18

Best way is always to check the cmplst.txt. Cognos Admin doesn't show the FP level.
Hi Guys,
If Cognos Fix Pack is installed in Linux what would be the update identifier string mentioned in the cmplst.txt for the 8.4.1 and 10.2.1.
Any help regarding this would be highly appreciated.

You can find all the build version numbers in one handy page! It's always a useful one to have bookmarked :)
