Cognos Installing error.

[AditiA]

I am installing Cognos in my Flexera but after hitting command 

".\InstallCognos.ps1"    I am facing below issue.

Installation failed with error -1.
At C:\Temp\FlexNet Manager Suite Installer 2023 R2\FlexNet Manager Suite\Support\modules\ConfigureCognos.psm1:386 char:3
+ throw "Installation failed with error $($installProcess.ExitC ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : OperationStopped: (Installation failed with error -1.:String) [], RuntimeException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : Installation failed with error -1.

I am facing error in this file of "ConfigureCognos.psm1 " in that from this line 'throw "Installation failed with error $($installProcess.ExitCode)."'

A possible workaround would be:

1. Run the 'analytics-installer-2.2.27-win.exe' manually first
2. Run the Cognos installer using the 'SkipInstall' option

.\InstallCognos.ps1 -SkipInstall

All parameters supported for the 'InstallCognos.ps1' PowerShell script can be found in the header of this script.

Personally, I would suggest waiting for the FNMS 2024 R1 release that had been scheduled for last week (still not available for download at the 'Product & License Center' though).

This FNMS release will come with a newer Cognos 11.2.4 FixPack 3 release, where a lot of known vulnerabilities have been fixed.
