Issue faced with RQM 2.0 jazz server set up


Latha R (2122) | asked Oct 01 '09, 4:22 a.m.
I have RQM 2.0 installed with Sqlserver 2005 SP2 32-bit database and Websphere 6.1.0.19 configured with it on win2003 .Iam able to create tables in sql and set up the database and have copied sqljdbc.jar file to RQMinstalledpath\server\sqlserver .

when i try to configure database in jazz team server setup i get the following exception:

The configuration test resulted in errors. Resolve errors to continue.Hide Details
CRJAZ0808I The driver "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver" could not be loaded and registered. Support for some database vendors requires that the JDBC driver JAR be provided in a path configured by the server scripts. If you are experiencing problems changing the database vendor, refer to the product setup instructions for more information.

This message almost always means that the server is unable to locate the jar file. There are 2 things that must be done to ensure the server can find the driver jar file. First, which you've done, you must download the driver and put it in the directory you specified above. Second, you must add that directory information to the server startup script. It sound like this second part has not been done. It is described in Step 5 of the 'Setting up a SQL Server database > Configuring the Server' section of the RQM 2.0 Infocenter. See the following link:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.install.doc/topics/t_s_server_installation_setup_sql.html

Do this step, restart your server and you should be able to connect to your database.

I'm having the same problem. I checked the documentation but I don't see anything about 'start up scripts'. I've noticed that it works when running from a batch script, but if you run tomcat as service it fails.

The only configuration I can find is:
1) put the jdbc fie in the right place
2) set the env variable to point to that place

Is there more? I tried quoting the path, singles, doubles, etc.
