Dear experts,
                       I have successfully installed cognos 8.4 planning on windows ISS configured cognos connection working fine but analyst is throwing a error as it could not create lock files

please advise

Your network user id need read\write permissions on the locks folder.

ie:

on the Analyst server locate the install_drive:\program files\cognos\c8\bin\locks.
