Hi,

We are having problems trying to run an execution schedule. The schedule calls a single test suite which consists of automated tests (RFT). The test suite runs outside the schedule without any problems but the schedule fails when the suite's TSER is added to it. In the RQM UI the Execution Schedule Result shows "Error" under the actual result (but it isn't a link that can be clicked). If individual TCERs are added to the schedule (and the test suite removed) then it runs ok. The problem exists regardless of whether a fixed time or build completion is used to start the execution.

We are running RQM 3.0.1.1. Any ideas what could be wrong?

The following exception is shown the qm.log.
