There are several potential root causes for this timeout, and they include the following:
Scenario #1 - The report server is overloaded, because the recommended hardware specifications have not been met
See separate IBM Technotes #1340994 & 1339581 for more details
Scenario #2 - Firewall is interfering with communication between the client and the report server
See IBM Technote #1340994
Scenario #3 - Three (3) or more browser sessions are being used on the same client device simultaneously
See IBM Technote #1340994
Scenario #4 - Network connection between client device and Report server is slow
For example, there is a poor-quality wireless network or WAN connection
See IBM Technote #1344573.
TIP: Although timeouts are the most common cause, there are other possible causes such as:
Scenario #5 - The hostname specified for the server contains an '_' (underscore).
Windows (for example IIS) does not support underscore characters in many of its operations. It is therefore not a supported/recommended character
For more information, see separate IBM Technotes #1340388 , #1364707.
Resolving the problem
Solution
Review the Technotes referred to inside the scenarios above. Resolve any issues that are found with your system.
Workaround - for timeout related problems
Increase the Cognos 8 async timeout parameter, to reduce the chance of a timeout
For example, increase the timeout from the default (30 seconds) to something larger (for example 60 or 90 seconds)
Steps for workaround:
See IBM Technote #1344573 for complete details, but to summarise:
Obtain a short period of downtime (no users logged into the Cognos system)
Logon to your Controller application server
Open the folder ...\WEB-INF\services. TIP: By default, this is located here: C:\Program Files\cognos\c8\webapps\p2pd\WEB-INF\services
Locate the file 'reportservice.xml'
As a precaution, create a backup copy of this file
Open the file reportservice.xml inside NOTEPAD.EXE
Locate the section which refers to async_wait_timeout_ms
Modify the setting to increase the timeout from the default (30 seconds = 30000ms) to a larger setting (for example 90 seconds = 90000 ms, or perhaps 60 seconds)
Save the file
Restart the Cognos 8 service (or the entire application server if preferred)
Test
TIP: For example, the new setting will look similar to:
