Windows based batch file to refresh Cognos 10.2.1 Transformer Cube

[maheshsk0381]

Hi,

I have created few cubes using Cognos Transformer 10.2.1 with Cognos 10.2.1 Framework Manager package as a source. The source database is DB2.

When I build Cube manually using Transformer interface it works fine without any errors and gets deployed to specified location.  I carried out Check model option and it shows no errors.

Now I wrote batch script as follows

d:
cd D:\Program Files (x86)\ibm\cognos\c10-32\bin
cogtr -n2 -r4 -c -g -k"Phase1=<<cognm>>/<<pwd>>" -s -p"D:\Transformer Cube\test\test_Model_04Jul2014.pyj"
echo %ERRORLEVEL%


When I executed this batch script, I got error code as 1 and I was able to see following entries in Cube Log File
Transformer(10.2.5001.14)  Mon Jul 14 16:00:02 2014

I have checked that the database user id & password combination is working properly. I have also added same database sign-on in Transformer model.

Though still I am getting above mentioned error.

Can some one help me out to get this resolved?

The -s option cannot be used with -p and it is possible this is causing this seemingly-unrelated error message. You don't need the -p, just use the model name at the end of the command line. I would question whether you really need -s either, actually.

If you have a signon in the Transformer model, add -lyourlogon/yourpassword to the command line.

What happens if you run that same command line by typing it in?

If this is a batch file, are you invoking the batch file yourself or from a schedule? If the latter, is it running under different credentials? That is a common problem; whatever credentials are being used have to have permissions to all the bits and pieces.
