IBM Engineering Requirements Management DOORS Next

Note:

To update Oracle Outside In Technology for DOORS Next, consider the following information.

This technology is independent of the backend database that is used by DOORS Next. Apply this fix regardless of whether you use Oracle as your Engineering Lifecycle Management database. This fix is for other Oracle technology and is not related to their database products.

Refer to the instructions in the readme file in the DN_703_OutsideIn_8-5-6_Patch_CPU_April_2024.zip file. These steps need to be done only once. The Outside In files last changed in interim fix 7. If you already deployed these files as part of installing interim fix 7 or later, you do not have to do these steps again.

Note:
If you encounter the following known issues, refer to the instructions in the readme file in the DT382448.zip file.
  • Known issue DT382448: You might be unable to generate or print reports in DOORS Next.
  • Known issue DT270478: You might encounter many line breaks in the documents that are generated from DOORS Next.
