IIS Settings

Could somebody list the necessary IIS parameters to run Business Objects on an ASP platform? I am having an error WIJ20002 in the query panel (Java Applet) while creating a new report.

Environment:

BO 6.5.2
DB2 UDB 7.0

If your configuration similar to :WebIntelligence version 6.5; Windows 2003; IIS 6 then this error message appears because ISAPI extensions, by default on IIS 6 these are disabled.
Here are the steps to follow to enable ISAPI extensions:

  1. Click Start > All Programs > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
  2. Expand the “+” beside the server name by clicking the “+” icon.
  3. Select “Web Service Extensions.”
  4. Select “All Unknown ISAPI Extensions” from the right pane and click “Allow.”
  5. Restart the IIS web server.

This isn’t a simple case of IIS settings.
If you search the forums on this error code you will see that this is quite a generic code covering a number of issues.
The primary change to the default IIS settings relate to ASP script timeouts when running hige reports.
The BO error guide explains that you should check that the system is operational. Have you ensured that all the BO modules are enabled and that the server is running correctly?
Have you checked the logs?
