Can't see images on Cognos Dispatcher - Simple Fix

- ibm-cognos ibm-connections

I took me a lot of time to successfully installing Cognos for IBM Connections 4 and in the end I finally could access the dispatcher through

http://yourcognosserver/cognos/servlet/dispatch

(or http://yourcognosserver/cognos/servlet/dispatch/ext)

BUT it looked like this, no images at all 🙁

This wasn’t exactly what I expected. Looking at the image URL’s and the source files on the Cognos WAS server revealed the issue.

To fix this problem just copy the the ps and skins folder from

WAS_INSTALL\profiles\AppSrv01\installedApps\YOURCELL\Cognos.ear\p2pd.war\servlet

to

WAS_INSTALL\profiles\AppSrv01\installedApps\YOURCELL\Cognos.ear\p2pd.war
