I've seen 2 common causes for this

1) Your user does not have a test lab manager license applied. This can be done under Admin -> Jazz User Administration

2) If you are not using the default project area named "Quality Manager", you must specify the project area for the STAX adapter in integration_config.xml using the <projectArea> tag


<RTLMExtensionAPIRegistration>
<adapter>
<name>STAX Adapter</name>
<version>1.0</version>
<APIVersionSupported>1.0</APIVersionSupported>
<inventoryExtensionId>com.ibm.rational.test.lm.spi.stax.inventory</inventoryExtensionId>
<automationExtensionId>com.ibm.rational.test.lm.spi.stax.automation</automationExtensionId>
<pluginId>com.ibm.rational.test.lm.spi.stax</pluginId>
<instance>
<projectArea>My Project Area</projectArea>
<instanceId>stax1</instanceId>
<hostname>mystaxserver.test.com</hostname>
<port>0</port>
<staxPath>D:\stax</staxPath>
<scanInterval>120</scanInterval>
<dbLocation>D:\RQM\staxdb</dbLocation>
</instance>
</adapter>
</RTLMExtensionAPIRegistration>

Thanks very much. I have figured out the problem cause my RQM CAL has 0 avaiable Lab Management license..

I have integrate RQM with RST(Rational Service Tester). But I find one problem; the efficiency to exec a test suite is very low. I have to count 10%, 12%,14%..... to wait a ER to exec. Does this a common problem when integrating RQM with Rational test tools like RFT/RPT/RST? Anyone has confronted the same problem? Thanks.
