Troubleshooting
Problem
Attempts to upgrade from a 4.0.x release of IBM Rational Requirements Composer (RRC) or Rational DOORS Next Generation (RDNG) to 5.0 or higher results in all project areas being deleted.
Symptom
The upgrade appears to have completed successfully, however no project areas are available. A query directly to the PROCESS_AREA table in the migrated database also yields no results.
