Error description

  • The Cloud Service Archive and IBM Rational Automation Framework
    for WebSphere (RAFW) Publisher generate the Tivoli Service
    Automation Manager (TSAM) export information using the IBM
    Rational BuildForge/RAFW default server port '3966' in the
    'buildplan.xml' instead of using the port of the BuildForge
    connection.
    
    If none of your BuildForge/RAF installations use the default
    port, but rather a custom one for security reasons, your
    workflow deployment in TSAM will fail with the error:
    
    'RAF authentication failed as the RAF instance is not running at
    the port specified in the workflow.'
    
    The workaround is to manually run the workflow in TSAM in order
    to to manually specify the correct port.

    ****************************************************************
    When user creates a BuildForge connection with a non-default
    port, while publishing the Cloud Service Archive, always the
    default port (i.e. 3966) of the BuildForge connection will
    be published in the "buildplan.xml" file.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Now, while publishing the Cloud Service Archive, appropriate
    port of the BuildForge connection will be published in the
    "buildplan.xml" file.
