Print Page - Having 2 different URL for the same CA portal

Title: Having 2 different URL for the same CA portal
Post by: Gizmo-be on 16 Mar 2022 04:36:48 AM

Hi all,

I'm pretty new to Cognos Analytics and to this board, so hopefully someone can help me with my question/issue. :)

Looking for a solution to have 2 different aliases pointing to the same Cognos Analytics, one with SSO and one without SSO

This is actually what I would like to obtain:

- http://servername/ibmcognos -> with SSO
- http://servername/login -> without SSO

I now this last one can be replaced by using servername:9300, but I really would like to keep the "Login" alias for non SSO login.

How can I implement this ?

Many thanks in advance.

EzPz, just create a secondary <Location> to the same physical folder. SSO is applied at the URI level only.

Thanks for the response.
By <Location>... do you mean in IIS, an 'application' or 'virtual directory' under Default Web site and pointing to:
..\Program Files\ibm\cognos\analytics\webcontent ?

I tried both, but none of them seemed to be working or am I going the wrong way ?
