My company is upgrading from Rational Publishing Engine (RPE) 1.1.2.2 to 1.2.  We are testing out an existing RPE template that pulls content from a Rhapsody model.  The version of Rhapsody we're using is 7.6.1.1.  The RPE template worked in version 1.1.2.2, but is failing in 1.2.  The Rhapsody application server is complaining of an exception, which appears to be causing the document generation to fail in RPE.

Note that RPE gives me the option to either use the template with the old 1.1.2.2 features, or with the new 1.2 features.  The error is occurring in either case.

Also note that if I strip down the template to a few sections, I can sometimes get it to work.  But not consistently (e.g. a stripped down template will work on the first generation, but will fail on a subsequent generation).

Included below is DOS window output showing the Rhapsody application server error messages, as well as the RPE console output error messages.

Any help on this is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Joe
