Cognos report output successful only on HTML

catdog · ‎Nov 21, 2022

Dear all,

I can output Cognos Report only on a HTML format.

Error messages (RQP-DEF-0177 and CAF-WRN-2082) appear when I try to output on an Excel format.

Is there any suggestion to solve these errors?

I am now using IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7.

Thank you,

@catdog if you are trying to run a report and see the results in Excel, I wouldn't recommend doing that. When you select Run As you should see the first option to Run in Background. Select this option so the system will run the report in Excel format and save the output rather than trying to view the report now. To see the results, you will need to go where the report is saved, click the three little dots, and select View versions.

Thank you,

Thank you for your response.

Unfortunately, your suggestion does not work.

I am still facing the errors (RQP-DEF-0177, UDA-SQL-0460, RSV-SRV-0042) even if I run in background.

@catdog you will need to submit a help ticket to SAP Concur Support then. I have not come across that error message before.

I have been told to use Firefox as the browser for Cognos and it seems to work and allows for running report in Excel.
