Add Module Mapping for cgi-bin gives an error

Troubleshooting


Problem

Add Module Mapping for cgi-bin gives an error when we enter the settings and click on OK. Error: The specified executable for the handler must be a .dll or .exe file

Symptom

Add Module Mapping Detailed Error:
The specified executable for the handler must be a .dll or .exe file. If the path to the script processor (only in the case of an .exe file) has spaces, use double quotation marks to specify the executable

Resolving The Problem

If you configure CGI as a Cognos gateway, then leave the "Executable" path blank and click OK

Reason:

When we browse we can find only .dll or .exe files and for CGI we dont have any of this





Note:
If you configure ISAPI as a Cognos Gateway, then for the path you can choose the Cognos_Gateway_Installation\c10_64\cgi-bin\cognosisapi.dll
