Cause

Code production problem (APAR PM67845) which causes user to not have permission to write to the 'configuration' folder.

  • NOTE: Although read/write permission for 'configuration' will solve the error in this Technote, it is recommended that you modify the parent folder "Integration" instead, to solve the error in Technote #1600112.

Environment

User logged onto client device with a non-administrative Windows user.

Resolving the problem

Fix:

Upgrade to Controller 10.1.1 FP1 (10.1.1671) or later.

Workaround:
On the client device, modify the NTFS permissions to the folder "Integration" to allow all users read/write access.

  • TIP: Although read/write permission for 'configuration' will solve the error in this Technote, it is recommended that you modify the parent folder "Integration" instead, to solve the error in Technote #1600112.

Steps:
  1. Logon to the client device as a Windows administrator
  2. Launch Windows Explorer
  3. Browse to the 'integration' folder. TIP: By default, this is located here: C:\Program Files\IBM\IBM Cognos Controller\Integration\
  4. Right-click on "Integration" and choose "properties"
  5. Click on "Security" tab
  6. Highlight the entry "Users"
  7. Modify the "Permissions for Users" by ticking the box 'Modify'
