Troubleshooting
Problem
Datasource connections not listed in Data server by default
Symptom
We can see the datasource in the Admin console but not in the list of data servers.
Cause
This is default behavior.
Environment
Cognos 11
Diagnosing The Problem
None
Resolving The Problem
Go to the Administrative Console -> Configuration -> Set properties -> Connections tab.
On the bottom, you will see "Data source capabilities"
Inside that, check the box which says "Allow web-based modeling"
Once you check this, the datasource would be present as data server.
