cc to rtc import full history error

So, on running the importer with full history the stream gets created but when it does the actual 'build/syhchronise' we get the error below.

Any ideas?

problem running 'synchronizeStream':

To diagnose this kind of problem do the following:
. Run the failing command at the command line redirecting the output to a file
. Look for problematic characters in the line after the last line reported in the sync/build log.

 Hi Lucy,  this is a problem with the Lang environment variable.  In your stack trace I can see this is set to UTF- 8.  This should be set to en_US.ISO-8859-1.  This needs to be done for the JBE process which is running the synchronization operation.  To do this you can use the following process. 

Stop the sync engine if it is running ( you can find the process by something like 'ps -ef | grep buildengine' )
Close RTC eclipse client
Set LANG environment variable in your terminal, export it. ( 'setenv LANG en_US.ISO-8859-1' or 'export LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1' etc.)
Start RTC eclipse client from the terminal
Verify the LANG env. variable is set as expected, by 'cat /proc/<RTC eclipse client process>/environ' and find LANG var.
Go to ClearCase Sync. view, select your sync. stream and start sync. engine
Again, verify  the LANG env. variable is set as expected for the sync engine process
Run sync

Hi

Thanks for this. We've tried it, made the changes and re-tried the import and it still errors. Are there any other work rounds for this error or do you think it could be a bug??

Thanks

Lucy

It might be quickest to just work with support.  One thing to try next is to run the command that is failing in a shell window on your sync host, and see if there is anything strange in the results.  I.e. the command:

/opt/rational/clearcase/bin/cleartool diffbl -activities oid:f9cb2663.3e4b4092.93b3.9f:ce:9c:72:35:7a@vobuuid:6bdc7a50.ee4a4e49.867b.c1:85:6e:70:f2:87 oid:c522cb5c.653d4616.9c3a.a1:35:de:6a:c2:77@vobuuid:6bdc7a50.ee4a4e49.867b.c1:85:6e:70:f2:87

thank you, i believe we have now raised a call.
