Listing components shows below :-

Component:(1018) "test_compi"
Component:(1019) "test_compi"
Component:(1021) "Projects"

Hi  Dhruv,
Please show entire command you have attempted to run.

ccc import ccase -d \Views\  -s <Stream> -c Projects -r <Repo link> -u <user> -p <passwd>

ccc import ccase -d \Views\  -s <Stream> -c 1021 -r <Repo link> -u <user> -p <passwd>

scm list component -r <repo link> -v -u <user>

Dhruv Bansal,

At one time did you rename one of the components to 'test_compi' from 'Projects' -after- you ran the ClearCase synchronizer and imported code into it?

I remember when I used the synchronizer in 4.0.3, I tried to rename a component that had already had CC code imported into it (I was trying to re-do the import because I was testing), but the CC Synchronizer stores the component UUID as a share root, even if you rename it, so I wasn't able to do this cleanly and so I dealt with it another way.

If the '1018' 'test_compi' component is causing the ambiguous component name issues, and you really only want to use '1021', then you could try to set component 1018's owner and visibility to another user so you can no longer see it, then try to import again.

Enable the option to view the UUID to specify the component you want to load (ie. scm -u y list component ... ). Then try importing again using the UUID. Your command using the alias (1021) should work as well as that explicitly specifies the component. However, I don't know what the ClearCase Synchronizer is doing.

Are you using this in the script? or running manually in the command line? If using in the script always use UUID instead of aliases because aliases are temporary and could be recycled (range 1000 to 9999). 


As Tim mentioned if you have used it immediately after listing the components in the command line it should have worked with the component alias.
