are you not using cgi modules in your setup??

I guess not, following the instructions from the installation guide and it pointed me to pre created cognos.conf files in /opt/ibm/cognos/analytics/cgi-bin/templates.

Should I be using another resource to find how to populate the cognos.conf file ?

Thank!
