CRMAP7007: Error reading local file area registry

Question

When getting list of views in IBM Rational ClearTeam Explorer, it reports the error message"CRMAP7007: Error reading local file area registry." So I cannot retrieve my views list after that message shows. Does any one have idea about how to resolve this problem?

Many Thanks for your kind help!

Answer 1

Problem solved. Delete the .ccase_wvreg_lockfile from C:\Users\username\

Note: the thread "CRMAP7007 Error reading local file area registry" gives a bit more details:

It is interesting because it reminds you of the debug options that exist with CTE:

To get a better idea of why the error is thrown you can look in the workspace log file.
This file is by default <user home>\.Rational\workspace\.metadata\.log

You can also launch CTE in debug mode by creating a .options file in the directory that he executable is in. The content of that file should be as below:

# -------------- CCRC Tracing Options File -----------------
# All line preceeded with a # sign are not evaluated.

# ------Server Tracing-------
# subsystems available:
# CCRC - Core general tracing related to CCRC server operations
# CCWEB- CCWeb(CGI operations)
# SUM -  UCM specific

com.ibm.rational.clearcase/server_trace=true
com.ibm.rational.clearcase/server_trace/subsys=CCRC:CCWEB:SUM
com.ibm.rational.clearcase/server_trace/level=4

# ------Client Only Tracing-------
# Parameters available:
# HTTP_CLIENT - Tracing specific to HTTP communications
# CTRC_UI -     Tracing specific to the user interface
# CTRC_CORE -   For client core tracing

com.ibm.rational.clearcase/client_trace=true
com.ibm.rational.clearcase/client_trace/params=HTTP_CLIENT:4 CTRC_UI:3 CTRC_CORE:3

com.ibm.rational.clearcase/client_trace/output=file
com.ibm.rational.clearcase/client_trace/file_name=C:/temp/cte_debug.out
# -------------- END CCRC Tracing Options File -----------------

With that file created, launch CTE from the command line using the -debug option:

C:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearCase\RemoteClient>ctexplorer.exe -debug
