I have created a “Links Element” Lobby Tile in FSM6u10 and would like the link to open Internet Explorer with a URL to an online Cognos Report.

 

The URL I am using in the Custom URL is:-

"C:\Program Files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" http://XXXXXX:81/Reports/B1_Report_Outputs/GTS/CustomerServices/Service%20Centre/BI_GTS_0014_Thales%20Service%20Centre%20Comms%20Cell%20Outstanding-en-gb.mht

 

The above URL works fine in CMD Prompt and opens the required report in IE with no problem at all.

 

If I try this in FSM I get :

 

However if I take out the path to the URL and only include: 

"C:\Program Files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe"

 

as the Custom URL FSM opens up IE but only to the Home Page.

 

Why am I not able to pass the parameter URL to IE as part of the Custom URL?

 

I hope someone can help me?.. :-)

Dear @AngeloPav,

Did you try adding only the url to the URL field (http://XXXXXX:81/Reports/B1_Report_Outputs/GTS/CustomerServices/Service%20Centre/BI_GTS_0014_Thales%20Service%20Centre%20Comms%20Cell%20Outstanding-en-gb.mht).

This will open the web page specified in the URL.

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,

Kalana.
