TM1 Forum

Hi,

TM1 web is working fine, as is the Contributor application development environment.

However, when I try to 'contribute' via contributor and open up a node in TM1 web, I'm prompted for login credentials.

I have added 'Everyone' and added all permissions to the wwwroot and subfolders, and as I said before, TM1 web works fine, but when opened through Contributor I have to put in a username and password.

Does anyone know where I need to set permissions in order for this not to happen in Contributor?

Thanks,

Dan

Are you using Apache Web Server for Contributor?

Yes, Tomcat 6.

I can connect to Contributor and create the application and I can see the Contributions and Reviews when I go into the application but get the credentials box once I try to open in web.

Managed to fix the issue!

This was caused by using the fully qualified server name in the settings for the Contributor TM1 Web client.

Log into Contributor as an Admin
Click on spanner and screwdriver icon on right-hand side of page (Administer IBM Cognos TM1 Contributor)
Select Client (usually only 1 present)
Select Edit
Change URL value from fully qualified to standard:

http://MyServer.xx.yy.zz/TM1Web/contributor.aspx

to

http://MyServer/TM1Web/contributor.aspx

Note you should also set permissions of the wwwroot folder of IIS to Everyone - Read/ Write as per TM1 Web login issue resolution

This can also be resolved by adding the URL to trusted sites in IE.
