When you query the Cognos Content Store it is important to remember that you can search for one specific item, or you can search for all objects of a specified type. For example, if you wanted to find the details for one particular report item then you would use the following syntax for your search path value.
spSingle.Value = "/content/package[@name='" + _pkgName + "']/report[@name='" + _rptName + "']";
However, if you wanted to find all reports for a specified package then you would use the following syntax for your search path value.
_reportPath = "/content/package[@name='" + _package + "']/report//*";
This is the same logic if you wanted to find all packages that exist in the Cognos Content Store.
_packagePath = "/content//package/*";
