Hi all,
When the end client checks the report and be idle for 1hour, the Cognos session got expired. So i took a cam_passport cookie and defining it at the client side as mentioned below
function getCookie(name) {
Ã, var dc = document.cookie;
var CGNS_CK;
Ã, var prefix = name + "=";
Ã, var begin = dc.indexOf("; " + prefix);
Ã, if (begin == -1) {
Ã, Ã, begin = dc.indexOf(prefix);
Ã, Ã, if (begin != 0) return null;
Ã, } else
Ã, Ã, begin += 2;
Ã, var end = document.cookie.indexOf(";", begin);
Ã, if (end == -1)
Ã, Ã, end = dc.length;
CGNS_CK=unescape(dc.substring(begin + prefix.length, end));
document.cookie="cam_passport="+CGNS_CK+";path=/;expires="+expireDate;
alert(document.cookie);
}
In the name i am passing "cam_passport", eveyrthing is fine until i am using the reports. Now one strnage thing happens when i click on the PDF or Excel icons. The cam passport value is changing and the complete text is different , becuase of that i am getting logged out. How to solve this issue
Thank
Hi,
A far easier solution to the passport timeout is to change the timeout value in Cognos Configuration, if one hour is not long enough. Select the Authentication folder, and modify the 'Inactivity timeout in seconds' from 3600 to whatever you need it to be.
Best regards,
MF.
