Title: Cognos 10.2.2 Quick Install - Configure images
Post by: fry on 12 Mar 2015 08:01:49 PM
Hello

Just completed a quick install using Cognos 10.2.2. We now require the capability to add images into reports. How do I configure this, as my understanding is there is no webserver installed on a quick install ? I am use to configuring IIS and pointing to the folder where the jpg are all located ?

Now what do I do ?

Thanks
Fry

If you did the quick install, you are probably using the servlet gateway (Websphere liberty) instead of a web server. Your image files need to be somewhere visible to the servlet gateway. I suspect that if you place them in webcontent\samples\images and refer to them via a relative url  eg ../samples/images/<your image name> it should work ok.

Cheers!
