Title: Cognos 11.0.11 to SAP BW connection
Post by: Zied on 15 Aug 2018 05:33:41 AM
Hello Guys,

Did anybody connect Cognos 11.0.11 to SAP BW?
I've been trying for almost 2 days with no luck  :o :o :o :o

Cognos 11.0.11 is installed on our server and I am trying to connected to SAP BW that is on the client server side.

I've done everything as described here :
:https://developer.ibm.com/answers/questions/294673/connecting-the-sap-bw-system-to-cognos-analytics-1/
: https://www.cognoise.com/index.php?topic=33130.0

Nothing helped, still the same error messages.
I have also downloaded the new SAP RFC libraries and done evrything as described.


Am I missing something?

Hope some body can help.
Many thank
Zied

Hey Zied,

Which version were you using earlier?
I am currently using 11.0.10 and SAP BW connection works fine.
Please share the outputs of the following:

1. What is the error that you are getting?

2. Check the list of drivers present in Cognos Installation/drivers folder.
Check whether any copy of this driver is lying in Cognos Installation\webapps\p2pd\WEB-INF\lib folder.
Stop the services on all machines
Delete the files in lib folder and start the services

3. Confirm whether you have found 2 types of lib files from SAPCAR, 32bit & 64 bit. If yes, then confirm whether you have pasted the same in bin & bin64 folders respectively.

Regards,
Nikhil
