Hi

I'm having trouble getting the Jetty server launched from RTC. I am using the launch configuration from the wiki (JazzServer-06-RTC10-Maximal.launch) and in my runtime I have the license plugin from server zip (in jazz/server/license-update-site/com.ibm.team.rtc.server.license.standard-trial) I keep getting an error saying at the Setup Step 4:

An error occurred while saving the configuration properties. Please check your server log for more details.

However, I don't see any errors written in the Tomcat server log.

Please help! Thanks!
Annie

Thanks for help again. Yes, the repository permissions are grayed out for every user. I just realized this text may help pinpoint the issue, but I have no idea what I should do to fix it:

Notice: You are using a directory service that is not writable. User roles cannot be modified.

Are they grayed out for every user? When I tried it locally, I had no
problem changing the roles for the user I created.

documentation that tells me this?

Regarding the User Registry Type, it is DETECT as you expected. Any
other ideas of why the repository permissions are screwed up?

Thanks again!

In the development mode of the Jazz Team Server (using Jetty), every

user in the system is treated as having the password 'password'.

Having the repository permissions checkboxes grayed out does sound
like
a problem. On the 'Advanced Properties' page in the Admin
perspective
of the web UI, what is the value of the "User Registry
Type" property?
In your setup, I would expect it to be 'DETECT'.

Anyways, the 2 problems I'm having are related to user accounts.
First, only ADMIN can log into the Jetty server launched from RTC.
Any other user accounts just can't log in. A perhaps related
problem
that any user I created have the repository permissions check boxes
grayed out (the repository permission under the User Management tab
in ADMIN's page). My user accounts do have the Developer license
assigned (I got the licenses from the plugin in the
jazz/server/license-update-site directory from the server
installation zip). I'm experiencing these problems in both the
Express and the Standard Editions of the Release 1
server.

Thanks so much for your reply. Actually, I wasn't trying to change the settings of my Jetty server launched from RTC. I thought the set up wizard is a necessary step to initialize the server properly. And I thought the other 2 problems I run into are related to this server error.

Unfortunately, there is a mismatch between the error message and what is
actually happening. The full error is being reported to the web UI, but
the web UI does not present the full error to the user.

About your situation, unless you have modified the launch configuration
to point to a new teamserver.properties file, running through the setup
wizard will only change the settings until the server is restarted.

You can specify a external teamserver.properties file by adding a VM
argument to the launch configuration in the form of
-Dcom.ibm.team.server.configURL=file:<your>. If
you do that, then configuration modifications will be persisted from
launch to launch.

What settings were you trying to change through the setup wizard?
