Why does my new Follow Up Action not show up in my Project Area?

I have created a new Follow Up Action for the Save Work Item Operation. While

using the Jetty server the Follow Up Action appeared in the Process Configuration

and I was able to select it and it worked successfully. When I deployed it on the

Tomcat Server running on my system, it did not appear in the Process Configuration

(for the Save Work Item Operation). I have been using the IBM Rational Team Concert

4.0 Extensibility Lab Exercises to troubleshoot and I have found and corrected

several inconsistencies with my Element ID and Component ID. However, I still can't

get my Follow Up Action to appear. Any suggestions.

Found out that I was using the ITeamRepository and TeamPlatform from the Client API in my server extension. I will replace these with classes from the Server API. Thanks Jorge and Ralph

generally you don't even need this as you are running as an extension of the repository. long as your class extends AbstractService you should have access to methods you might need

Hi Andrew,

Please check the ccm.log file for errors related to the deployed plugin.

Thanks

Checked the ccm.log and found no errors related to the deployed plugins

I found an error in the ccm.log that I overlooked because the error only occurs when the server is started: CRJZS0383W Failed to resolve the bundle <Name of Bundle I'm Trying to deploy>. There was a question raised about this error but the answer indicated that user really didn't do anything except change some code in one of the classes and then change it back the the original code and the problem went away.

Your update site is probably broken. Or some IDs don't match.

My best guess is, you are missing files or some other deployment error. On the plugins build tab make sure you have the plugin.xml checked. Open the jar files with a zip tool and check for class files etc.

Open https://host:port/ccm/admin?internal=true and check the component status. Look if your component at least shows up.

Component for the Follow Up Action appears with no errors. Checked the Build tab found the plugin.xml checked.

Hard to tell with so few information. If you have a component in a plugin and the extension in another, I would assume the deployment is missing files. I typically check the JAR files for their content using 7zip in cases like that. If it runs in Jetty and does not in Tomcat but showing up as a component, it is a deployment issue - missing files in 90% of the cases. I would check the CCM log file and check the JAR's. You could check to export all files in the build.xml's for the first step. Delete all generated files in the update site project and repackage, redeploy again, including request reset. Run an extra Eclipse client to check if you can configure the extension.

and you have to restart the tomcat server after requesting to flush the plugin cache

https://server/ccm/admin/cmd/requestReset
then restart the CCM server

Thanks Sam, I'll remember this in the future Flushed the plugin and then restarted the server, but the Follow Up Action is still not visible.

and you restarted eclipse.. sometimes this is also required..(I don't have a repeatable scenario) and you looked in the ccm log on the server too, right?

Sam, I ran into something recently, that I can also not explain. I connected with my Eclipse that I use to develop the participant to the project area on the test server I launched from it. The plugin was there, but the configuration from Eclipse did not work correctly - I saw old schema versions. I finally started a new Eclipse2 launch and there it worked.

Ralph, the RTC client caches schema version information from the server. The assumption is that the schemas from the server don't normally change out from under the client in a production scenario. You have to restart the client to re-fetch the schemas.

Thanks Jared. I meant the comment rather as a warning to other users not to do what I did.

Am also facing with the same issue.

1.I am also having component registration in one plugin and extension service in another plugin.
I have extracted the jar and veriified and no file is found missing.

I have no clue where I am making mistake.

Also in my service extension plugin, am having "asynchronous task extension". Please help me out.

I have also given unique component ids. Please suggest me some solution.

and you are sure the server side is loaded properly? the server log file shows no errors.. did you restart both server and client in clean mode? client is eclipse -clean I had a couple cases where I forgot to add the runtime dependancies to the new service plugin.xml, so my service failed. Sam

I have also seen this in the past. What I generally do is add a system.out... in the activator class and start Tomcat with OSGI console enabled to verify if the plugin is loading.

I have added the sysout in Activator class but am not getting any printed outputs, since am facing the issue, [ Launch callback handler] WARN eam.repository.provision.internal.ProvisionService - CRJZS0383W Failed to resolve the bundle "abc".

Hi thanks for your replies. I had a dependecny "com.jcraft.jsch", which i was missing, this caused the issue in deploying. Now its getting successfully deployed. And my sysout in Activator class also getting printed. Bundle is getting started. But In client its not showing up in "follow-up" action. Still its showing as "0". No error in ccm.log.

have you restarted the client? many times the client caching prevents seeing new configuration items. also, was the plugin defined to be an advisor or follow action in its Plugin.XML? <extension point="com.ibm.team.process.service.operationParticipants"> <operationParticipant class="com.xx.test.Participant" id="testparticipant" name="test actions" operationId="com.ibm.team.workitem.operation.workItemSave"> </operationParticipant> </extension> or for advisors <extension point="com.ibm.team.process.service.operationAdvisors">
