Version Control Repository Error

[Joe Smith_19]

I keep getting the following error every evening relating to the Version Control Repository:

VCRM log entry: https://TVGROUP-PRD2:2381/vcrepository/log?entryId=VCRM1121238023 Error for file: C:\hp\hpsmh\data\webapp-data\vcrepository\catalogindex.xml Error code: 12003 An extended error was returned from the server.550 /pub/softlib/software2/COL3293/catalogindex.xml: No such file or directory. Error for file: catalog.xml Error code: 12003 An extended error was returned from the server.550 /pub/softlib/software2/COL3293/catalog.xml: No such file or directory.



Any idea as to resolving this issue?
Thanks...

Hi Joe,

Try the patch at: http://h18004.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/23181.html

Be careful, however, when I installed this patch my globalsettings.props file somehow ended up getting truncated. See my thread at: http://forums2.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=935850

Good luck,
- Steve

Joe,
Which version of VCRM you are using?

Thomsen,
Delete Both "catalog.xml" and "catalogindex.xml" from the following path
"c:\hp\hpsmh\data\webapp-data\vcrepository\"

then try automatic update using VCRM, it should Download "Catalogindex.xml"(4,929 bytes) and "Catalog.xml"(6,340,145 bytes) to the same path.

I tried the patch. Everything seems to be working fine now. I'll let you guys know if the problem arises again.

Thanks Again.
