Technote (troubleshooting)
Problem(Abstract)
IBM Installation Manager cannot convert the properties file from an earlier version of Rational ClearQuest to a new properties file. You must manually convert the properties file when migrating from 7.0.x versions.
Resolving the problem
The IBM Rational ClearQuest Web site configuration is stored in the file DCT.properties. To migrate DCT.properties to a new site configuration file, use the CQSiteConfigConverter utility. The utility is contained in the package com.ibm.rational.cq.web.utils inside cqwebapp.jar. For instructions, see the following topics in the Rational ClearQuest information center:
If you see the error
Unable to find the com.ibm.rational.cq.web.utils.CQSiteConfigConverter class, it is possible that the current
CLASSPATH environment variable on the system has been modified so that the CQSiteConfigConverter utility cannot find the needed .jar files.
To work around this issue, run the java command with the -classpath option and the class paths shown in the following example:
java -classpath "<install_dir>\common\CM\profiles\cmprofile\installedApps
\<hostname>CMProfileNode01Cell\RationalClearQuestWeb.ear
\CQWebModule.war\WEB-INF\lib\cqwebapp.jar";
"<install_dir>\common\CM\profiles\cmprofile\installedApps
\<hostname>CMProfileNode01Cell\RationalClearQuestWeb.ear
\CQWebModule.war\WEB-INF\lib\json.jar"
Replace the variables <install_dir> and <hostname> with the installation directory and hostname for your system.
