Check-in or deliver code using Rational Team Concert results in vcs.tmpdir error message

Troubleshooting


Problem

Attempts to check-in or deliver code using IBM Rational Team Concert results in the error "Failed to upload File".

Symptom

After you finish modifying your code and check-in the code, you see the following error message during upload:


Failed to upload File /filename/src/lib/jaxb1-impl.jar The versioned content service temp directory has been deleted. This often can happen if the property 'vcs.tmpdir' is a directory within /tmp.

Cause

The property vcs.tmpdir was a directory within /tmp.

Resolving The Problem

Procedure:

  1. Stop the server.
  2. Create a backup copy of the teamserver.properties file.
  3. Create the following temp directories in the directory the teamserver.properties file is located.
    jazz_tmp/repository
    jazz_tmp/vcs
    jazz_tmp/scm  
  4. Set the configuration variables in the teamserver.properties files.
    On IBM i:

    com.ibm.team.repository.tmpdir=/jazz_tmp/repository


    com.ibm.team.scm.vcs.tmpdir=/jazz_tmp/vcs
    com.ibm.team.scm.tmpdir=/jazz_tmp/scm

    On Linux:

    com.ibm.team.repository.tmpdir=jazz_tmp/repository


    com.ibm.team.scm.vcs.tmpdir=jazz_tmp/vcs
    com.ibm.team.scm.tmpdir=jazz_tmp/scm

    1. Start the server and try to check-in or deliver the files again.
