 I am trying to execute the following command through WCL to EWM 7.0.2:
-create /enableDeleteAttachment /rmiClient=//localhost:1199/WorkItemCommandLine  repository="https://jazz702.in.kovair.com:9443/ccm" user="kovair" password="*******" projectArea="QAProject (Change Management)" workItemType="com.ibm.team.workitem.workItemType.defect" modifiedBy="kovair" internalState="forceState:New" category="Portfolio Name (rename)/Solution 2 (rename)" description="" summary="Test20.8Bug1250 Frm Jira" @attachFile_0:add="\QA-HSBC\AllAttachments\JIRA\1D9140BD-90D4-4797-9315-9E6DECFF3FE8\ActiondetailsBZF5.png,ActiondetailsBZF5.png,text/plain,UTF-8"

But each time I am getting the help content printed in the cmd window with the error
Command not provided! $$$$
As you can see the command is there.. Am I missing something?
Any kind of help is appreciated.

Can you check if the command works without RMI?

 @rschoon Could you please elaborate a bit further? How can I check if the command works without RMI?

See my answer below. RMI is a special mode that allows to run a WCL server to run and keep logged in. I have not tested it for quite some time and this mode also requires a WCL server to be started. READ the documentation.  https://github.com/jazz-community/work-item-command-line

 Yes, after starting an instance as rmi server using 'wcl /rmiServer=//localhost:1199/WorkItemCommandLine', running this command in a separate cmd window works. 
Any idea why running with the RMI mode is not working?

  1. When you use the RMI client mode, you HAVE to start an RMI server.
  2. I have not tested this in ages

Anyway, if you start an RMI server and can run as RMI client against that, the problem sat in front of the keyboard the first time around, as RMI mode always requires an RMI server to be started.
