Title: ui.errURL not working?
Post by: rasheed on 12 Oct 2009 04:33:40 AM
Hello All Experts!!

I am wondering that why isn't "ui.errURL" working.

According to my understanding in case of any exception at Cognos side, the user will be redirected to the value of "ui.errURL" parameter. I hope that is the use of this parameter...

But in my application i get "Cognos Security Firewall Rejection" exception, when user session expires and the user is not redirected, but instead shown that ugly exception page. How can I redirect?

Here is the complete URL:

"https://xx.vv.xx.com/cognos8/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi?b_action=cognosViewer&ui.action=run&cv.header=false&ui.object=/content/folder[@name='NoSight']/folder[@name='R33']/folder[@name'Reports']/report[@name='Impact']&ui.name=Impact&run.outputFormat=&run.prompt=true&CAMNamespace=TrustNS&async.primaryWaitThreshold=0&ui.errURL=https://xx.vv.xx.com/cognos8/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi"

Can any one please help? Any thoughts... any experiences...

Have a nice day!!!

you must enter the domain "https://tprismui.watson.ibm.com" into the cognos configuration otherwise the redirect will be blocked by Cognos Application Firewall.

The mentioned property of the CAF is called "valid domain or hosts".

Hope this helps you.
