When we take a QS report and export to Excel or PDF, the icons (filter, sort etc) do not appear.  Red X's or Blanks appear in Excel.  I have even tried loggin on the VM (Gateway server) to see if theyd appear

I Viewed the source in Internet Explorer and saw that the Filter.gif is in the ../qs/images directory. 

I took the 'qs' folder from the Gateway server and copied it to the App server

The result: The icon appears!! 

So it seems to me that if I copy over the whole .../webcontent form the Gateway to the Appserver, that this would work.  However, I don't understand why the Appserver doesn't have what it needs. 

Anyone run into this?  Any thoughts, feedback to a more cleaner solution?

This can happen in a multi-server environment if the URIs in Cognos Configuration are not correct.  Recommend you open a Service Request and attach all the Cognos\cmplst.txt and Cognos\configuration\cogstartup.xml files.
