Technote (troubleshooting)
Problem(Abstract)
Attempts to create a work item from requirements using the Plans-Implements Requirement Collection feature of IBM Rational Team Concert (RTC) shows only URLs instead of a requirement's dcterms:title
Symptom
How the dialog can look:
Cause
This can occur when there a mismatch in the dwaPort registered with Rational DOORS and that set in the published.url.prefix parameter in Rational DOORS Web Access (DWA)
To verify if this is the issue, open the properties of a Rational DOORS module and note its exact URL.
Example: https://tennyson.ibm.com:443/dwa/rm/urn:rational::1-4f9819536c985f97-M-00000541
Edit the <DWA Install folder>\server\festival\config\festival.xml file
Note the value for the parameter published.url.prefix
The protocol, hostname and port there must match exactly the hostname in the module's properties.
Example: <f:property name="published.url.prefix" value="https://tennyson.ibm.com/doors/redirector/"/>
This does not match. In Rational DOORS, it is 443; In DWA no port has been explicitly set. It must be set for this parameter.
Resolving the problem
Procedure:
- Correct the value in DWA
In this example, change it to:
<f:property name="published.url.prefix" value="https://tennyson.ibm.com:443/doors/redirector/"/>
- Restart DWA
