Errors connecting with XDC files downloaded with 3.0.1

I know this belongs more on the RTC forum, since the CLM team provides the XDC files now, but I'm not getting any help with my question there.

I downloaded the configuration files for reporting (XDC files) from my CLM server to use in my Insight 1.0.1.1 system. I tested the connection in the XML Data Configuration tool, and found that the rqm301.xdc connection tested just fine. From both the jfs301.xdc and workitem301.xdc file, when I tested the connection I get the message:


"CRRRE2841E: The resource group cannot be accessed."


I checked the documentation and did not see anything about updating the default URL that came with the XDC file. The only help text I found on that error message was "Provide a valid URL or correct authentication of the resource group." Could this possibly be a licensing issue, or is it really the URL? Do you need a specific RTC license assigned to the user doing the reporting? I don't see anything in the documentation that indicates this.

Tthe URL listed in the Workitems.xdc file is: https://<host>:<port>/ccm This URL fails, but if I add /rpt to the end, testing the connection succeeds. However, the Resource Groups all have /rpt listed so while the connection works, the ETL will fail.

Has anyone else seen this? Have suggestions?

I am configuring workitem3012.xdc within the XML Data Configuration Tool, and it looks like this is no longer an issue with the newer CLM version.

Supplying the URL as  https://<host>:<port>/ccm results in:

"The connection is successful."

No extraneous error messages are being generated.

I have the same errors when testing these on my system, buteverything works fine. I suppose these can be ignored, but should probably be fixed.

I talked to someone else who said the same thing, and I found I was able to connect just fine via Data Manager.

I believe to fix it, /rpt should be added to the end of the base URL, and then remove it from the all of the Resource path values. It's a very misleading error.

That is correct. This not really an error message, but rather the tool's
way of saying I cannot continue the test.

Please add your +1s and expectations for the Test buttons behavior to
this work item: &quot;46859: Downloaded CLM XDC files fail to authenticate
against the pre-configured resource groups in the XDC tool&quot;,
