About web server configuration

In order for Esri Maps for IBM Cognos and IBM Cognos to communicate, you must create virtual directories, or aliases.

If IBM Cognos is exposed on multiple paths in your environment, Esri Maps for IBM Cognos must be configured to reflect this. For example, if IBM Cognos is available at both http://cognosserver/ibmcognos and http://ibmcognos, the following paths must be listed as shown:

  • http://cognosserver/ibmcognos/em4c
  • http://cognosserver/ibmcognos/em4c/cgi-bin
  • http://ibmcognos/em4c
  • http://ibmcognos/em4c/cgi-bin
