Establishing the Rational ClearQuest Web interface
If the Rational® ClearQuest® client is installed on a developer system, it is used by default. If the Rational ClearQuest client is not installed on a developer system, the Rational ClearQuest Web Interface is the default interface. To enable a client to use the Rational ClearQuest Web Interface, set the following configuration parameters in the configuration file or the environment variables from the command-line prompt:
- Configuration parameter or environment variable
- CQCC_CQWEB_VERSION
- Because two versions are supported, configure the correct protocol. 2.0 (Rational ClearQuest Web Java protocol) is the default. 1.0 (Rational ClearQuest Web ASP) is for earlier Rational ClearQuest Web servers.
- CQCC_SERVER
- Specifies the name of the host at which the Rational
ClearQuest Web
server resides and uses port 80. To specify a different port, add to the host
name a colon (:) and the number of the port; for example,
myhost:81specifies that port number 81 be used instead of port 80. - CQCC_SERVERROOT
- Specifies the root directory in which the Rational ClearQuest Web Interface files are installed; usually cqweb.
- CQCC_SERVER_SSL
- Specify TRUE to enable secure communications for the Rational
ClearQuest Web
connection. The URL is set to use
https:. Specify FALSE (the default) to usehttp:as the protocol.If you enable secure communications, more time is used to establish a new connection when a trigger fires and a connection to a Rational ClearQuest user database is required relative to establishing an ordinary connection.
- Configuration parameter only
- CQCC_CQWEB_ONLY
- Set this to force use of the Rational ClearQuest Web Interface even if the Rational ClearQuest client is installed.
