404 – file or directory not found

Product:
Cognos TM1 10.1.1
Windows 2008 R2 server
CAM security

Symptom:
Switched to cam security from TM1 native security and when you login to TM1 Architect you get error message. You get same error message if you try to surf to TM1 Application web at
http://tm1server.domain.se:9510/pmpsvc

IntegratedSecurityMode=5
will give error, but not
IntegratedSecurityMode=2

Error message:
404 – file or directory not found

Possible Solution:
The value in TM1s.cfg for ClientCAMURI is pointing to the wrong Cognos BI server.
When you use security 1 or 2 then the CAM address is not used, and you will not get issues.

Copy the value from ClientCAMURI (http://biserver02.domain.se/ibmcognos/cgi-bin/cognosisapi.dll) and start Internet explorer, paste the value in and try to surf to it, if you get errors here. Then it will not either work for TM1.

Update your TM1s.cfg file and restart your TM1 application service.

ServerCAMURI=http://biserver.domain.se:9300/p2pd/servlet/dispatch
ClientCAMURI=http://biserver.domain.se/ibmcognos/cgi-bin/cognosisapi.dll
ClientPingCAMPassport=1800
CAMPortalVariableFile=portal\variables_TM1.xml
AllowSeparateNandCRules=T
GroupsCreationLimit=100
MaximumCubeLoadThreads = 11

The value in TM1p.ini file (in folder C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Applix\TM1) is only used when you add users to the TM1 application from TM1 architect. It should have the same value as the TM1S.CFG file.
