TIPCLI.bat Export command failed during a TDWC 9.2 upgrade.

Troubleshooting


Problem

tipcli.,bat and consolecli.bat Export script failed during the TDWC upgrade because it couldn't resolve the Pathname where "Program Files" was used on the E: drive, because short name was not enabled.

Symptom

This is the failure message:

Error: Could not find or load main class
Files\IBM\JazzSM\profile\installedApps\JazzSMNode01Cell\isc.ear\JSON4J.jar; E:\PROGRA~1\IBM\WEBSPH~1\APPSER~1\derby\lib\derby.jar;
E:\PROGRA~1\IBM\WEBSPH~1\APPSER~1\derby\lib\derbytools.jar;E:\Program

You will also get the same result if you run "consolecli.bat Version"

Cause

The short name is not enabled on the E: drive, which causes the consolecli.bat script to fail when using any space in the path name, i.e. "Program Files"
Note: in DASH, tipcli.bat is just a wrapper script that calls consolecli.bat

Environment

DASH installed on E: drive where short names is not enabled.

Diagnosing The Problem

Run this command on the drive that you are running tipcli.bat ( which is a wrapper for consolecli.bat in DASH):

E:>fsutil 8dot3name query E:
The volume state is: 1 (8dot3 name creation is disabled).
The registry state is: 0 (Enable 8dot3 name creation on all volumes).

The volume state would be "0" if short names were enabled, here is an example from C: drive where it is enabled:

C:>fsutil 8dot3name query C:
The volume state is: 0 (8dot3 name creation is enabled).
The registry state is: 0 (Enable 8dot3 name creation on all volumes).

Resolving The Problem

Three Options:
1) Enable the short name on the volume, which should be done after consulting with the Windows System Administrator and DASH Support. and taking a backup of the current DASH Installation:
"fsutil 8dot3name set E: 0"


2) Install the product on a drive where the short name is enabled.

3) We have a temporary fix for the consolecli.bat script to handle the case where short names are not enabled and you have "Program Files" in the install path. In this case, please contact DASH L2 Support and upload your copy of the <JazzSM_HOME>\ui\bin\consolecli.bat script.
