HTTP 400 error with RQM CopyUtility

Hi All,

I am using RQM copy utility (https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMCopyUtility) to copy project in RQM v2.0.0.1 iFix01.

I tried to copy the project as per the article but got 400 error in the log.

Then I tried to open the link "https://localhost:9443/jazz/secure/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/" manually.

I could open the page "https://localhost:9443/jazz/secure/service" and I could see the link for "com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService" in the page. But when I click on it, I got below error.
------------------------
HTTP Status 400 -

type Status report

message

description The request sent by the client was syntactically incorrect ().
Apache Tomcat/5.5.23
--------------------------

Hope someone can share any idea for this problem. :P

Unfortunately return codes 400 and 500 are overused/abused a lot in the REST API so they aren't as precise as I'd like.
If you're getting a 400 right out of the gate then I'd verify:
1) the URL. Look for typos.
2) the project area name. Does it exist? Typos? Was the project ever renamed (you need to use the "alias" - the original name)?
3) username / password - should get a "forbidden" but I've seen other behavior at times.

Try to construct a full URL - including an artifact type (i.e. .../resources/testcase) - and paste that into a browser to verify you get a feed.

Regards,
John

Hi

Could you fix this problem? I'm facing the same problem and I don't know how to proceed. The error log is not clear, I cannot identify what is wrong.

Please help.
Thank you

You do know that this is a five-year-old post, don't you? As mentioned in the previous answer, HTTP 400 error is usually caused by a command line syntax error (the way you use the tool), rather than the tool itself.

Bruno Fazoli commented Apr 01 '15, 7:07 a.m.

Yes, I do! This is the reason why I'm questioning, an old post but no answer or solution.
The purpose of a tool is to speed up the manual process, but instead of helping this tool brings me more problems... How come a tool display a generic error messagem, without any explanation about what is really wrong? Right now, what I'm trying to do a trial and error process until I get any meaningful result and as I could notice what is wrong seems to be the project name. Actually it is used the project alias which is not the same of a project name. I'm still trying to figure out where to find that.
If you can, please help.

 Bruno,

I don't want to speak for Don but I believe his point was given the age of this this thread it may be best to summary your current issue is a separate thread so that it can be evaluated by the Jazz user community
For this type if issue include the following
  • The Version of QM you are using
  • The version of the copy utility you are using
  • The syntax of the command you are trying to run
  • The error message in the log  
Thanks
