IBM Rational Synergy iFix 7.1.0.1.03 for version 7.1.0.1
IBM Rational Synergy Fix Pack (7.1.0.2) for version 7.1.0.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Where the user is importing object versions from a 6.5-SP2 datab
  ase to their 7.1.0.1 database which have trailing spaces in the
  version attribute, fs_check reports an error.
  
  It's not possible to create a version with a trailing space in 7
  .1.0.1 because the model prevents this, but we don't prevent obj
  ect versions being imported which have trailing spaces in string
   attributes.
  
  One effect this has had, is that fs_check now reports the follow
  ing serious errors for all these object versions:
  
  ----------------------------
  
  ? ccm fs_check 'name-version#6 :incl:dcmid#1'
  
  1 objects specified for check.
  
  
  Failed to extract file.
  
  SERIOUS: Cannot retrieve archive file for name-version#6 :incl:d
  cmid#1:
  Archive path:    archive/ccm_delta/source/binary2/incl/#9418/003
  2282046.1.zip
  Archive version: dcmid#1/incl/name/version#6
  Archiver:        ccm_delta
  Status log:
  Skipping check for unused cache/archive files
  SUMMARY:
  1 object selected:
          1 object was checked.
  Archive information check for 1 static object:
  *      1 object failed to extract the archive revision
  
  Cache file check for 1 object:
          1 cache file matched its corresponding source modificati
  on time
  No archive file comparisons performed.
  Checked that 0 cache files and archive entries were in use:
  Database check failed with 1 serious error.
  
  ----------------------------
  
  The object versions do appear to have been archived correctly -
  extracting the zip files shows the expected source, so it appear
  s that fs_check is not handling this situation properly.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• If there is legacy (i.e. from a release prior to 7.0) data
  which has a version name that contains a trailing space,
  then fs_check will report errors regarding that object's
  archive entry. This will also affect archiving a successor
  version and archive extraction (e.g. examining a file after
  clean_cache removes its cache file).
  

Problem conclusion

• This problem will be fixed in the next version of the
  product.
