RS03230: MAVEN BUILD FOR RULE APP FAILS WHEN .RULEPACKAGE FILE EXISTS IN RULES FOLDER

Operational Decision Manager V8.9.1.0: Interim Fix 29

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Building a rule app archive works different in Rule Designer
  and the Maven jrules compiler plugin when a file named
  '.rulepackage' exists unexpectedly directly in the 'rules'
  folder of the workspace.
  The eclipse based Rule Designer ignores the rulepackage file,
  as it is not expected in the rules folder.
  But the jrules compiler plugin for Maven takes it into account,
  which finally could end up in different problems like:
  - the rule package name as defined in the .rulepackage file
  would be used as prefix for the rule name, e.g. rule named
  'test.eligibility' gets named 'rules.test.eligibility'
  - Maven build would end with an exception
  

Local fix

• delete file named .rulepackage from the rules folder and run
  the Maven build again
