Print Page - Authentication error CM-REQ-4158

Title: Authentication error CM-REQ-4158
Post by: frog on 09 Jun 2009 08:20:14 AM

Hello everyone,
I configured Cognos 8.3 to perform authentication using Active Directory.
Everything was working fine until I modified the members of the Cognos System Administrator deleting the 'Everyone' user group and adding only the Administrator user.
Now only the Administrator has access to Cognos Connection, while trying to access with all the other users I get the following error message:

"CM-REQ-4158
The search path "storeID("")" is invalid."

Anyone could help me please? :'(

Unfortunately we did that to restrict some permissions...so we really needed to do that.
Anyway we found here the answer to this issue:

Thanks... So the key is that Everyone has the read and traverse rights in Cognos Namespace and external namespace (if you are using any). And ensure that under Users Group of External namespace there are no users listed.
