CQ Connector will not start because of license problem
![](http://jazz.net/_images/myphoto/63751bc9857fdc7696a98c82d806a6bb.jpg)
When I start up the CQ Connector gateway I get the following message in the cmd window:
18 Jun 2008 13:08:30,004 ERROR com.ibm.rational.interop.level1 - CRRTC4543E: CQ Event Polling has NOT been started
com.ibm.team.interop.service.managers.clearquest.common.InteropException: The ClearQuest Connector has not been started because of license issues on Jazz server(s) .
Please check the Jazz server edition or the license granted to the Jazz login account configured for the ClearQuest Connector.

at com.ibm.rational.connector.cq.gateway.polling.PollingThread.pollingIncoming(PollingThread.java:44)
at com.ibm.rational.connector.cq.gateway.polling.PollingThread.run(PollingThread.java:31)
I setup the user that the connector runs with, to use the CQ connector license and they have JazzUser permissions.
I am not sure why this is not working, anybody seen anything similiar?

Just to clarify: "the bug" we're talking about is a message in the status page like what you saw:
There were problems connecting to the CQ DB, Tconcert/test1
null
The bug is that the message is misleading (and missing information) when there is a problem connecting to the Jazz server. The message in the gateway log about a login or license problem is real, and upgrading to the final release won't help (it will just make the status page more accurate, hopefully).
