RE: [MAXIMO List] Tivoli Common Reporting (TCR) 2.1 with Maximo 7.5

From: Orb Maximo (2012-10-23 14:26)

Just been back and checked my notes - for step 7 I noted the following

* Lots of errors trying to get this working (mostly CAM-AAA-0034
namespace does not exist) that were only resolved by a complete restart of
Maximo, TCR and Cognos
* Make sure that it is the "Namespace ID" specified in the system
property mxe.report.cognos.namespace and not the name or label -this was
created in Step 5 and it is a case sensitive field!
* If you update this setting, restart the servers as it does not
appear to take effect with Live Refresh (at least not in my testing)

Where is your TCR server installed relative to Maximo? Are they on the same
server or different servers? If they are on different servers you will need
to install the Oracle client local to the TCR server and configure TNSNAMES
accordingly
What URL is being generated when you attempt to launch Cognos
Administration?

Still having issues with making this integration work. Either I've missed
something in the configuration per the document downloaded or there is
really more to the integration than it shows. Running both on windows 2008
R2 servers against an Oracle database. I follow the steps outlined in the
document and get stuck at paragraph 7 when I attempt to launch the cognos
administration console via the link in Maximo 7.5. For some reason its not
resolving this connection and returns Internet Explorer cannot display the
webpage. I don't believe it authenicating correctly or I'm having some type
of issue with my ports on the servers being used.
Anyone else got any ideas.
