Cause

The version of the content store database is later than the version of the Cognos software (installed on the application server).

Example:
In one real-life case:

  • The content store database was based on Cognos 11.1.7 FP10
  • The version of Cognos configuration was Cognos 11.1.6 

Resolving The Problem

Either:

(1) Upgrade the version of Cognos analytics install (installed on the application server) to the same (or later) version as the database uses

(2) Restore the content store database (from a backup) from when it had the same version as the content server installed.
