Update Project's Process Description


Guislain LAGRON (3674) | asked Jun 11 '10, 7:32 p.m.
Hi,

am trying to update an existing project's process description by following these steps (described in the Help):

1. In RMC, publish to Java EE Web application with:
- Web application name: XYZ_UP
- Package format: WAR

2. Zip XYZ_UP.war as processContent.zip

3. In RTC, open project:
3.1 Go to Link tab then attachments, and replace processContent.zip by browsing to the new location of processContent.zip
3.2 Go to Overview tab, then edit Process Description Path to /Costco_UP/index.htm
3.3 Save and wait a while

When I test the Process Description, it returns "This program cannot display the webpage", and I notice that the path is \IBM\rationalsdp\workspace\ProjectName\.metadata\.plugins\com.ibm.team.process.ide.ui\processContent\ProjectName\XYZ_UP\Index.htm, but all I find at that location is the XYZ_UP.war file.

What am I missing?

Thanks for the assistance,

Hi,

processContent.zip should directly contain the contents of Process Description rather than the war file.

Or the index.htm file that is inside processContent.zip could have a redirect to your server, where your deployed/unzipped the xyz_up.war file:

e.g. http://<server_name>:<port>/xyz_up/index.htm

Hi Ricardo,

I am confused, because Bruce McIsaac demoed at Innovate2010 swapping war files during his ALM-1355B Automating Agile Practices with Rational Team Concert and Method Composer session.

What step am I missing?

Thanks.

FYI.

Published to HMTL, zipped as processContent.zip, and attaching it to project (or process template) worked.

Thanks Ricardo
