 Have recently installed RTC 4.0.3 and am using the Clearcase synchroniser to import from a UCM stream. I have selected that I want to import history. After clicking finish in the Import Clearcase Stream wizard (Jazz Source Control Information Page) I get the following error.

Connector algorithm.  The Connector must be properly initialized to function, so further processing is impossible.  Please fix the problem and retry the operation.
CRRTC4061E: The synchronization process cannot be completed. The "cleartool" command completed with a non-zero status or error message:
 
cleartool describe -fmt %[components]CXp stream:Mainline_integration@vobuuid:276d195a.946311dd.8847.00:02:c4:65:3f:4c

cleartool: Error: Unable to determine absolute pathname for "276d195a.946311dd.8847.00:02:c4:65:3f:4c" - No such file or directory

current working directory: 
command result status: 0
command duration: 467 ms
process environment: 

So I tried the describe command shown above by itself and reproduced the error message. 

Error: Unable to determine absolute pathname for "276d195a.946311dd.8847.00:02:c4:65:3f:4c" - No such file or directory

When I created a dynamic view on the integration stream and then performed the describe from inside the view the error went away.

Z:\SAFRPerfEng>cleartool describe -fmt %[components]CXp stream:Mainline_integration@vobuuid:276d195a.946311dd.8847.00:02:c4:65:3f:4c

component:InfoCentreWE@\SAFR_PVOB, component:EMQ@\SAFR_PVOB, component:Mainline_base@\SAFR_PVOB, component:WorkbenchEclipse@\SAFR_PVOB, component:PerfEngZ@\SAFR_PVOB, component:PerfEngH@\SAFR_PVOB, component:PerfEngCpp@\SAFR_PVOB, component:WorkbenchVB@\SAFR_PVOB, component:PerfEngMVS@\SAFR_PVOB, component:JavaViewer@\SAFR_PVOB, component:ReportEng@\SAFR_PVOB, component:Utilities@\SAFR_PVOB, component:SAFRViewer@\SAFR_PVOB, component:Build@\SAFR_PVOB, component:Database@\SAFR
_PVOB, component:ExecMVS@\SAFR_PVOB, component:StorProc@\SAFR_PVOB

Is it possible there has been a bug introduced in 4.0.3 where its performing a cleartool command that needs a view to work.
