repotools -createTables with Oracle db giving service error


Mick Walters (1644) | asked Oct 26 '09, 10:40 a.m.
I'm installing RQM 2.0 for the first time. I've configured it to use an Oracle database. When running repotools -createTables, I get "Initial database connection successful" but then I get "Failed to get the service com.ibm.team.repository.service.internal.rdb.IDatabaseStateService". I have made the change suggested in http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21382927 without any change.

The Oracle db server is Oracle 11 and 64-bit. As far as I can see, this is not supported. Does anyone know if this is likely to cause the symptom above please or is my problem something else? TIA

There is a bug in repotools version 2.0.

You should install iFix1 before using the repotools.
If this doesn't helps, just open a new ticket for your problem.
Regards, Stefan.

Thanks Sefan. We used an Oracle 10g db and all was well. We have since installed FixPack1 which has corrected a subsequent problem. Mick
