Cause
There are many potential causes for the generic message "Could not create the view".
- TIP: For more examples, see separate IBM Technote #1612000.
This IBM Technote specifically relates to the scenario where the error message contains the message " Automation error The service did not start due to a logon failure".
- In this scenario, the cause is that an incorrect user and/or password has been used for the Windows service "IBM Cognos Controller Java Proxy".
Resolving the problem
Modify the username/password used for Windows service "IBM Cognos Controller Java Proxy", running on the Controller application server.
Steps:
- Logon to the Controller application server as a Windows administrator
- Right-click on "My Computer" and choose "Manage"
- Expand "Services and Applications" and "Services"
- Double-click on "IBM Cognos Controller Java Proxy"
- Click tab "Log On"
- Modify the settings for "Log on as" as appropriate. In other words, choose "This account" and modify user to a Windows user who is a local administrator on the application server (typically the same as the "COM+ user")
- Click OK
- Click "General" tab.
- Click "Stop"
- Click "Start"
- Test.
