LI78798: HTTP 500 "UNKNOWN RULE IN CALL" WHEN TRYING TO USE CUSTOM POLICY

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSWHYP_4.0.0/com.i
  bm.apimgmt.policy.doc/tapim_pol_implement.html?lang=en
  
  On above page,
  Step 3, Export your policy implementation from DataPower,...
  
  The screenshot provided in this step is confusing customer and
  causing error when importing policy in to API Management.
  
  When the policy is exported, '-main' is added before .zip and
  after name of the policy which is creating the issue. Import to
  the API Management works fine except when it is looking for the
  policy it is not finding it because of the '-main' in the name.
  
  Note: Above page, Step 3 the screenshot needs to be changed so
  the first line in screenshot shows "checkmembership.zip"
  instead of what is there.
  

Local fix

• Rename export file from -main.zip to
  .zip, then the import works fine in API Management.
  

Problem summary

• The documentation contained a screenshot of an example export
  showing the "-main" suffix on the archive exported from
  Datapower.  This was confusing as the -main suffix should only
  be added to the processing rule name.
  

Problem conclusion

• The screenshot has been corrected and the Knowledge Center
  republished.
  

Temporary fix
