Upgrading Cognos Analytics to version 11.1.5 and Kerberos files

Release Notes


Abstract

When upgrading IBM Cognos Analytics to version 11.1.5, the Kerberos krb5.config file must be copied manually to the cognos_analytics_location/ibm-jre/jre/lib/security folder.

Content

In Cognos Analytics version 11.1.5, the location of JRE files is changed from cognos _analytics_location/jre to cognos _analytics_location/ibm-jre/jre. However, the location of the Kerberos krb5.conf file in the preserve.txt file still references the old location /jre/lib/security.
To resolve  this issue, manually copy the krb5.conf file to the /ibm-jre/jre/lib/security folder. Otherwise, connection errors occur for data servers that use Kerberos authentication.
