Hi Friends,
Need your help !!
Have successfully installed 32 bit Cognos 10.1.1 on Windows 7 but however while logging in to the cognos connection, I see no images only hyperlinks on white background(as in the attachment).
Using iis 7 isapi module.
Please if you can let me know how to get a standard cognos connection home page.
Is this single server or distributed installation ?
are you accessing cognos using dipatcher URI or gateway URI ?
Hi SK,
Thanks for your response.
Its Single server environment.
Content Store on the same server.
Accessing it Via gateway URI and there is no splash screen too
Just verify your gateway/IIS configuration once again by using below link.

Alos just try if you can access cognos properly(with images) using dispatcher URI, I think as its single server install(if all three components in one directory) dispatcher URI should show images.
Hi Sk,
Thanks for the link. Thats the same one I used to configure IIS.
Will try once again and update here.
Thanks
Hi ritesh
I am sure that the output u shown in the attachment belongs to the external dispatcher URI and not to the gateway URI. To get the administrative portal u have to install and configure IIS webserver and put the link in the gateway URI....
Hi Guys,
Thanks for all valuable suggestions and issue is now resolved and it was a simple problem with the iis.
Solution :
Everything was working fine and even I was accessing correct gateway uri ;)
Issue was with "static content" option which I did not enable while turning windows features ON and OFF. Once I did that everything started looking beautiful.
Please find the steps below.
Go to Windows features / Turn Windows features on or off. Under Internet information services, expand Common http features. Check the box static content and click OK.
relaunch cognos connection in new window.
