Hi All,
I've gone through the process of setting up the url_xml datasource, but just can't get it to work.
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/c8bi/v8r4m0/topic/com.ibm.swg.im.cognos.ug_cra.8.4.0.doc/ug_cra_id3354SampleAuditReports.html#SampleAuditReports (http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/c8bi/v8r4m0/topic/com.ibm.swg.im.cognos.ug_cra.8.4.0.doc/ug_cra_id3354SampleAuditReports.html#SampleAuditReports)
(windows)
the "build.bat" appears to go fine, and I believe I've set up all the variables correctly...however, when testing the url_xml datasource, it says the "logon failed" ...which I don't think is correct either, because I've verified those settings.
(i.e. set user name and password and namespace in the java file, and uncommented out the line for credentials. And I used the namespace ID (it's the same as the name))
further details get this:
"http://localhost/p2pd/cognos/DSSServlet.jsp" is not a valid xml document."
Anyone know if there is something wrong with the instructions?
...better yet, if anyone has set this up successfully, do you mind sending me the following files from your environment:
web.xml file located at c8_location/webapps/p2pd/web-inf
build.bat file that was editted
DSSServlet.java file that was editted
thanks,
david.
I got the error but after trying few times it did create the file and the datasource works fine.
As long as the file is created, it should work fine.
I copied few things from our existing 8.3 installation though into the file.

The files are in this folder structure:
\Program Files\cognos\c8\webapps\p2pd\WEB-INF\classes\com\cognos\demo
....thanks.
I think the problem was the JDK version I was using ....I tried with 1.6 with no success, but 1.5 worked perfectly the first time.
cheers,
david.
