Greetings:

This is probably a simple question. However, it is one that I am seeking an answer for:
We have Cognos 8 BI installed/setup. However, I would like to find out the exact version we have. I.e., 8.1, 8.2, etc. Where on the Cognos server can I find this information? Also, I would like to see the Audit package version that we have. Where can this be found?

(Response to self):
I went into Cognos Configuration > About Cognos Configuration and I see:
Version: 8.2

Now: Is this the version of Cognos I have or merely Cognos Configuration? One would assume, that even if this is the version of the Cognos Configuration application, that I then have the same version of Cognos. Correct assumption?

Ok - I checked the version of Cognos Connection, Report Studio, Analysis Studio...
All display version: 8.2.
Hence, I guess I will make the assumption that we have Cognos 8.2.

Look at the cmplst.txt file under your install directory.  It will give you the exact version and build.

Neat - thanks. And the file shows that my assumption was correct.
