Cognos Error Code

Hi,

We are trying to import the metadata of cognos reports to the metadata repository of the information server using a bridge. But everytime, we get and error that looks like:

Code: Select all

ERROR MBI_COGNR_E0023: The query to cognos faild. Verify content path syntax and access rights.
We are not entirely sure why this is happening. All the access rights seem to be in place. Also the error code is note available even through a google search. Feels like I am the first one to land into this problem.

Any pointers as to what the problem might be?

Which release of Cognos and which of Information Server?

Hi -
Which release of Cognos are you on?
Which release of Information Server are you on?

I know with 8.7 you can more easily use the Metadata Import Manager instead of the bridge option.

You can not bypass using a bridge. Metadata Asset Manager just provides a cleaner way to use the bridge.

The error is not a Cognos error. It's a Metabroker Interface (MBI) error code.

Read the message carefully. Either your username/password is incorrect, your dispatcher URL is incorrect (unlikely) or the pathname of the Cognos object you wish to retrieve is incorrect.
