Use this procedure to update the Web Content URL and Gateway URI entries for SSL. Perform this procedure on the Cognos Gateway Server where the Cognos 10 BI Gateway services are installed.

  1. On the Cognos Gateway server, click Start > All Programs > Cognos10 > Cognos Configuration.
  2. After the Cognos Configuration utility is completely loaded, select Portal Services and update the Web Content URI entry:

    https://<servername>.<domainname>:<portnumber>/COGNOS10

    Note: Be sure to change the port number to the port for HTTPS.

    For example:

    https://www.example.com:443/cognos10

  3. Select Environment and update the Gateway URI entry:

    https://<servername>.<domainname>:<portnumber>/cognos10/cgi-bin/cognosisapi.dll

    Note: Be sure to change the port number to the port for HTTPS.

    For example:

    https://www.example.com:443/cognos10/cgi-bin/cognosisapi.dll

  4. Select File > Save.

    The Cognos Configuration utility validates the settings and saves the configuration.

  5. When the checks are complete (all items are marked with a green check mark), click Close.
