Cognos 8.4 Install on Windows Server 2008 using CGI IIS7

[Dave the coder]

Hi all,

I have Cognos 8.4 installed on my Windows Server 2008 using ISAPI; however, I cannot get the CGI-bin install correctly as I keep getting this error "PF-SRV-6116 Unable to process the document, target is not valid or the target was not received."

If I do the ISAPI setup, it works correctly, but for the life of me whenever I click the Cognos Administration button, I cannot access the page and get that error. Anyways, does anyone have any tips to installing on IIS7 Windows Server 2008 ? Or should I just skip CGI and go with ISAPI?

Thanks,

Dave

hi,

By default handlers defined in IIS 7.0 for either CGI or ISAPI modules do not process the full path information in a URI
You have to edit manually some config files to allow full path information to be processed by the handler.

good luck
