Installing Cognos ReportNet on Oracle

This supporting guide is a little dated (Cognos ReportNet) but still useful when setting up Cognos and the BI samples with the Content Store hosted on Oracle. If you need a copy of the Oracle database to practice on, there is a developer program where you can download any Oracle software for free, as long as you do not use it for commercial purposes (and some other restrictions). http://technet.oracle.com

The installation process is as follows:

1. 1. Install Cognos;
   
2. 2. Configure Oracle;
   
3. 3. Configure IIS;
   
4. 4. Configure Cognos;
   
5. 5. Install Samples;
   
6. 6. Test
