I've noticed one strange problem with Contributor applications on Cognos Portal. Cognos 8.4
If they are situated in the main directory I don't see any problem. But if I create the new folder in the main directory and replace any application in the new folder I can't open it. It shows me e-list but when I open the element of e-list I see next mistake:
[CCLMsg: System text='Argument value is null']
WHILE [CCLMsg: system text='parsing cogrcp from input stream']
WHILE [CCLMsg: system text='parsing cogrcp from file C:\Document and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\J555E9J\cognos[1].cogcrp'']
When I move replaced application in the main directory the problem disappear.
Has anybody met this problem?
Not sure why you are seeing this. You can try this -
In CAC, go to the app > Development > Application Maintenance > GTP Options. You can specify the path where you want to move the app.
Unfortunately It hasn't helped.
I see the same error.
Some additions.
It turned out that I can launch the appilcation from another (not the main) folder then I open the Contributor Console on server. But I can't do it on my user computer.
May be it are the problems with settings with temporary folders on my computer but I can't understand them. I set all rights to folder Temporary Internet Files but it hasn't given me any results. Also I can't find the folder with name J555E9J. I think the application are trying to make this folder but can't do it. And I don't know the reason.
This is most likely going to be a problem on your local machine with your current profile.
First go ahead and try deleting files in your temp directories
- %tmp%
- %tmp%\..\Temporary Internet Files
- %tmp%\..\cache (if it exists)
The overall problem should be that it is having a hard time recognizing the .cogrcp filetype, or the opening of the .cogrcp file
