Hi,

It seems you're trying to start Cognos's embedded Tomcat. I assume you're using Insight 1.1. But Insight should be running on Websphere. You can start the websphere application server instead.

Hi, Shuai Hu

Yes, I use insight 1.1 and i use Websphere. This error occurs when after configuring for connection to database content store at cognos configuration and start or run the service .Sorry about my explanation this happened on at cognos configuration not on cognos data configuration but it points to the Cognos Data Manager Socket Server.

so you mean that the actual error have no effect on Cognos Data Manager Socket Server? and By starting websphere server application will automatically run cognos configuration?can you explain to me why this happen.

Thanks in Advance.

Can you tell me what button did you click to reproduce the error? By default the launch button in "IBM Cognos Configuration" is disabled. So you can't start the embedded tomcat there. If you just want to start the Cognos BI Server, you should start the websphere application server instead of Tomcat.
