PTC HTTP Server on Windows
To configure PTC HTTP Server to recognize the Enterprise LDAP for authenticating Windchill Business Reporting requests use the following procedure:
1. From within a Windchill shell, navigate to the directory where PTC HTTP Server is installed.
2. Run the following on the command line:
ant -f webAppConfig.xml addCognosAuthProvider
-DappName=<COGNOS_WEBAPP_NAME>
-DproviderName=<ENTERPRISE_LDAP_NAME>
-DldapUrl=<ENTERPRISE_LDAP_URL>
-DdocBase=<WBR_HOME>
where
◦ <COGNOS_WEBAPP_NAME> is the name of the Cognos Web application, which is Cognos by default.
◦ <ENTERPRISE_LDAP_NAME> is the unique name of the Enterprise LDAP. This value must match the EnterpriseLDAP Node value in the Cognos Configuration tool.
◦ <ENTERPRISE_LDAP_URL> is the full URL for the Enterprise LDAP, including the base distinguished name. For example:
ldap://mymachine.mycompany.com:389/cn=EnterpriseLdap,cn=Windchill_10.0,o=myorg
◦ <WBR_HOME> is the installed location of Windchill Business Reporting.
You can optionally include -DbindDn and -DbindPwd elements if necessary.

If there is a space or an equal sign ( = ) anywhere in one of the arguments, you must enclose the entire argument with double quotes ( " ).

3. Restart PTC HTTP Server.
