Workaround for ReqIF file import failing due to attribute definition unknown message?
I have created a reqif file of a module in a 5.0.2 DNG project. I'm now trying to import that file into another 5.0.2 DNG project and am getting a message:Error importing Artifact into module. This attribute definition is unknown. I found this work item and am thinking this could be the same issue. It mentions that if an attribute is deleted and then a reqif file is created, when you go to import, it will be looking for the deleted attribute and will fail to import when it can't be found. https://jazz.net/jazz03/web/projects/Requirements%20Management#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=93578
Accepted answer
I believe the "workaround" means manually removing the references to the deleted attributes in the ReqIF file (it's in XML format). If you use a nice XML editor, the task may become a bit easier.
You may also consider requesting to backport the fix to the 5.0.2 stream. In this case, you need to contact IBM Support, and it can take some time even if approved.
