Did you know... you can also start Cognos Configuration for Cognos Express

When installing Cognos Express, most administrative tasks are done using the IBM Cognos Express Manager.  This an online web interface in which you can install modules, create users, but also configure your LDAP & notification settings.

Sometimes, you just want to tweak things some more, and the start menu doesn't allow you to start Cognos Configuration.  If you look carefully, it is shipped with the product, but you just have to start it from the file system.

The executable "cogconfigw.exe" is located in the "bin64" folder of your installation directory.  By running it as an administrator, you'll be able to edit all of the settings you want.

Have fun!
