PUT method failing on test plan xml


Chandrahasa Reddy D (5715160) | asked Feb 10 '14, 8:13 a.m.
Hi All,
I am trying to execute PUT method on test plan xml, but its failing and gives me response code as 500. I am using RQM 4.0.4 build. My RQM url utility is older version i.e., probably RQM 3.0.1. Do I need to update RQM url utility to 4.0.4 version to execute this successfully or is there any other workaround? please suggest.

Hi Chandrahasa,

I'd first download the version of the utility that matches the version of RQM you're using (i.e. 4.0.4).  Since the utility is built on the REST API and this is not compatible between versions.  Here is the wiki page for the tool and the section on compatibility. 

RQM URL Utility Compatibility

I hope this helps.

Even after using RQMUrlUtility 4.0.4 I am getting same error while performing PUT on test plan resource. "RQMUrlUtility: Server Response code: 500"

Hi Chandrahasa,

Does a GET on a test plan work?  I would use this to make sure the XML and command syntax is OK.  Are there any more details for the error 500 that will help you narrow down the problem?  Anything in the qm.log?

I don't think I have errors on xml syntax, because I am getting xml from GET method and thereafter posting it. Any suggestions? and also I am using administrator account only, no issues with permissions.

Even for PUT on testsuite also not working ..same error here also. But I am able to PUT successfully on testcase resource.

It's interesting that it works with test cases and not test plans.  I was looking around on the forum and found the following post.  It is an Error 500 trying to use the utility to PUT a test case.  There is a defect noted in this post, so it appears test cases were fixed and maybe there's a defect with the other resources.

Thank you Erica.. what will be the solution that I can look for now ? Should I raise request to IBM ?

Yes, at this point it would probably be a good idea to open a PMR.  I suggest including the command, XML and qm.log when submitting the PMR.  You could also include a link to this forum post for some history.

Hi Erica,
I have examined the issue very closely using qm.log file, if the test plan is associated with requirements, requirements collection the PUT method fails. If I dont have these in test plan then PUT method will be successfully executed. In qm.log file, it says unable to get the requirement type, the error is "com.ibm.team.repository.common.TeamRepositoryException: Unable to get Requirement Type https://host:9443/rm/types?resourceContext=https://host:9443/jts/process/project-areas/_Ceb_9ZhWEeOVsq25hMgU2Q from RM Repository: https://host:9443/rm/ , RM Project Area: https://host:9443/jts/process/project-areas/_Ceb_9ZhWEeOVsq25hMgU2Q , the return code is: 403 (Forbidden)". What suggestions you can give me to resolve this issue, ?  pls note I have given all required permissions to the use.
