How to solve this exception in 'converter'
Been round the planet trying to re-establish a delegated converter application. The latest activity being an install of RM/tomcat on the original host. I removed the rm.war from the webapps and configured the tomcat to behave as it had in its prior instantiation (e.g. port #, DISPLAY). Visiting the converter URI:

Are you using the Tomcat that ships with CLM or your own? I would start by using the CLM installer to deploy Tomcat and just undeploying the wars that you don't need. It could be a communication issue between http/8080 and the repository on https/9443
Ok, I got the CLM-Web-Installer-Linux-4.0.3.zip, unzipped ran the install and chose "Install application w/o jts" Picked Requirements mgr and tomcat. After install completed, removed the rm.war, configured tomcat, etc.
Looks like I need to setup SSL

Which version are you using? It looks like if you enable DEBUG logging for com.ibm.rdm.web.htmlgen.servlet, you should see some useful information about the repository being constructed from the resource URI you are generating. You can do this in https://server:port/rm/rmadmin -> Logging -> Configure Loggers -> com.ibm.rdm.web.htmlgen.servlet -> DEBUG -> then reproduce your problem and check the converter.log again. If you can post the log entries here I can have a look to see what might be going wrong.

Version 4.0.3
How about I update the log4j.properties under the converter install. I can't rm/rmadmin as this is a delegated converter.
Yes, you can do that. The advantage of rmadmin is you don't have to restart the server. With log4j, you will need to restart. But you're right...in the case of a distributed install you'll need to use log4j.
