DOORS how to purge deleted module baselines
![]()
I am using DOORS 9.6.1.6.
One user created a module baseline and named it incorrectly.
He has since deleted it but wants it gone from sight.
He can still see this deleted baseline in
menu File > Baseline > New...
menu File > Baseline > View...
menu File > Baseline > Copy...
menu File > Baseline > Delete...
Is there a way to purge deleted baselines?

Accepted answer
![]() There is no way to do this with GUI.
However, there is an unsupported way to hide this baseline.
You have to do this from the DOORS server host.
1) [DOORS client] right mouse click on the module and select properties
2) [DOORS client] In the General tab, note down the URL of the module
for example, doors://doors_svr:36677/?version=2&prodID=0&urn=urn:telelogic::1-55e5295b3efe7ac6-M-000006a0
3) [DOORS server] locate the data folder
for example,
C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Rational\DOORS_svr\9.5\data\v6data
4) [DOORS server] locate the subdirectory that ends with the last 3 characters of the module URL
for example, doors://doors_svr:36677/?version=2&prodID=0&urn=urn:telelogic::1-55e5295b3efe7ac6-M-000006a0 ends with 6a0,
so we want to find a subdirectory ending with 6a0.mod
that is,
C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Rational\DOORS_svr\9.5\data\v6data\a0\00\m000006a0.mod
5) [DOORS server] go into that directory with Windows administrator privilege
6) [DOORS server] back up and then modify baseline.ixc, remove the deleted baseline info and save it
7) [DOORS server] restart "DOORS DB Server 9.x" service in Windows services
