HCL Marketing Software Reports Installation and Configuration Guide
An installation of the HCL® Marketing Software reports is complete when you install HCL® Cognos® BI and configure it for HCL Marketing Software applications. This guide provides detailed information about configuring HCL Cognos BI, and integrating HCL Cognos BI with HCL Marketing Software.
A Custom Java Authentication Provider (CJAP) provides authorization for users who access Cognos report folders and reports. You can implement this feature after you implement the HCL® Marketing Software Authentication Provider, which provides single sign-on authentication between HCL Marketing Software applications and Cognos.
Complete this task only if you implemented CJAP security and decided to roll back your environment to use the HCL® Marketing Software Authentication Provider.

Removing the CJAP implementation from your environment

Complete this task only if you implemented CJAP security and decided to roll back your environment to use the HCL® Marketing Software Authentication Provider.

About this task

To remove CJAP implementation, complete the following steps.

Procedure

Reverse the following steps that you performed to implement CJAP:
1. Restore the reportSecurityConfig.properties file from your backup.
2. To synchronize the property file, select Settings > Sync Report Folder Permissions in the HCL Marketing Software user interface.
3. Add the Cognos Administrators role to the Everyone group in the Cognos namespace.
  
  When you configured CJAP, you removed this role from the Everyone group in the Cognos namespace. You must add it back or Cognos will have no users with administrator permissions. If that occurs, you must set up a new content data store database, or restore the content store from the backup database.
Stop and restart the Cognos service.
