Troubleshooting
Problem
A WebSphere Transform Extender(WTX)/IBM Transformation Extender (ITX) Map source file is not opened with the expected version of ITX/WTX
Symptom
A WTX/ITX Map source file is not opened with the expected version of ITX/WTX
Cause
When installing WTX/ITX you didn't register the particular version of WTX/ITX as default for Map source file (.mms).
You can also register the following WTX/ITX files during installation.
.mmc
.msl
.msd
.mtt
.dpa
Environment
You have more than one version of WTX/ITX Design Studio installed on your windows system and you are double clicking on a map source file (.mms) to open directly instead of opening with the WTX/ITX Design Studio.
Diagnosing The Problem
When you install WTX/ITX Design Studio you get a message similar to the following message at the end of the installation.
'This product is not registered as the default application for .mms (IBM WebShpere Transformation Extender Source map) files. Would you like to register it as default ?. '
If you choose 'yes', when you double click on a .mms file it should open in that particular version of WTX/ITX. If you click on another .mms file it should open in the same WTX/ITX Design Studio.
Resolving The Problem
You can update your existing version of WTX/ITX Design Studio with the same version and click 'yes' when asked if you wish to register at the end of the installation.
