Title: Open report Studio with Firefox
Post by: Dkelley2001 on 05 May 2014 10:03:37 AM
I am having issues opening Report Studio with Firefox. I am using Cognos 10.1.1 and have found that Firefox 29 is not supported. I have seen suggestions to use Firefox ESR 24.5 to solve the problem. I have done that. When I open Report Studio I still hang-up at /rsapp.htm

Here are the specifics to what I have tried/checked. Does anyone have any other ideas.

Running Cognos 10.1.1
Installed and am running Firefox ESR 24.5

To use Firefox ESR 24 you need to be on Cognos 10.1.1.3. Otherwise you need to install ESR 17

See he supported environments page for details:

I see where my confusion came in. I download ESR 24.5 from the location below. I can not find a download for ESR 17. Do you have any idea where I could find it? Thanks again

Mozilla seem to keep their old versions here:
