(d) Test that both the Controller application server and client device can successfully connect to the CA/BI website ( using HTTPS/SSL with no errors).ġ4.

If your CA/BI report server is integrated with IIS, then perform the steps below:.An example is given in the link at the end of the Technote. (a) Use the instructions provided with your software, to change CA/BI to using SSL.If your CA/BI report server is not integrated with IIS, then:.On the report server (CA/BI) modify it to use SSL Typically this is done to allow single sign on (SSO) with Microsoft Active Directory.ġ2. This shows that the CA/BI report server had been changed so that it is integrated with Microsoft IIS. This is the default setting for CA, showing that it is NOT integrated with Microsoft IIS Check the current value for 'Report Server', for example: On the Controller application server, launch "Controller Configuration"ġ1. If you want to encrypt CA/BI server client traffic then you will need to perform the steps in this section.ĩ. Controller 10.3.1 comes bundled with Cognos Analytics (CA) 11.0.7.Controller 10.3.0 comes bundled with Cognos BI 10.2.2.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Ĭontroller requires a report server (CA or BI) to power some of its functionality (for example standard reports and CAM authentication). Make sure that there are no error messages. Then on the client device(s), perform the same test, for example:.On the Controller application server itself, launch the HTTPS version of the Controller diagnostic website, for example:.Test that the SSL/HTTPS communication is working OK
Click ' Select' and choose the certificate we chose earlier, for example:Ĩ.Inside 'Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager': This is done in the same way as previous step #5.ħ.If using a self-signed SSL certificate, then install/register the SSL certificate on all client devices (for example end user's PCs, or the Citrix servers). Specifically, it should be: Local Computer\Trusted Root Certification Authorities: IMPORTANT: You must make sure that you choose to import into the correct store location (on the client device).Typically this is done by double-clicking on the '.CER' file.If using a self-signed SSL certificate, then:
If using a commercial SSL certificate, then follow the advice from your third-party supplier Install/register the SSL certificate on the Controller application server (the one hosting the IIS website 'controllerserver' which powers the main 'classic' system). See appendix #1 (at the end of this Technote) for one easy method.ĥ.There are many different methods to create a self-signed SSL certificate that is compatible with IIS. Typically this is a file that has a 'CER' extension.These instructions assume that the FQDN name = Ĥ.For example, if you use a different name (for example NetBIOS or IP address) for the server, the SSL certificate will not work correctly
