PI96134: ERRORS CRP-OPF-2003 CRP-REP-1005 CRS-REP-1008 CRP-OPF-2016 REP-API-1001 INSTEAD OF LOGON PROMPT

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When having a bookmark/favorite URL of a Active Report output of
  type
  http://<webserver>:<port>/<virtual_directory>/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi
  /repository/sid/cm/rid/iCB94652D5E17422A8B2FE30CC6527009/oid/def
  ault/content/mht/content and click this after Cognos Session
  timed out in the same browser session then errors popup instead
  of Cognos Logon screen
  

Local fix

• In Cognos Connection for the appropriate report click on "set
  properties - <report_name>" right next to the report
  On the top right find the link "View the search path, ID and
  URL" and click it
  See the "Default action URL:"
  If it is of type:
  http://<webserver>:<port>/<virtual_directory>/cgi-bin/cognos.cgi
  /repository/sid/cm/rid/iCB94652D5E17422A8B2FE30CC6527009/oid/def
  ault/content/mht/content then we need to change it.
  In this case click "Close"
  Go to tab "Active Report"
  For "Default Action" set "Run the report" Click OK
  Again, for the appropriate report click on "set properties -
  <report_name>" right next to the report.
  On the top right find the link "View the search path, ID and
  URL" and click it
  Copy out the "Default action URL:" which now is something like
  /cgi-bin/cognos.cgi?b_action=cognosViewer&ui.action=run&ui.objec
  t=%2fcontent%2ffolder%5b%40name%3d%27Samples.....
  Replace the URL in the bookmark/favorite with this URL
  In Cognos Connection for the appropriate report click on "set
  properties - <report_name>" right next to the report and undo
  the changes for "Default Action:" in the way change it back from
  "Run the report" to "View most recent report". Save it.
  Result: Although you open the report object link via URL
  /cgi-bin/cognos.cgi?b_action=cognosViewer&ui.action=run&ui.objec
  t=%2fcontent%2ffolder%5b%40name%3d%27Samples.....
  it will "View most recent report" and not execute/run the
  report. So the workaround is just to use a different URL.
