Troubleshooting
Problem
This technote explains why attempts to run the IBM® Rational® ClearCase® clearimport command after using clearexport_pvcs results in the error, []clearimport: error: unable to find "get.exe" in your path[] and provides instructions to resolve the issue.
Cause
MERANT PVCS is not installed on the host where the import command is run.
Resolving The Problem
The get.exe is an external extraction command, which comes with PVCS. The clearimport command calls this utility to import the PVCS files.
To successfully import the PVCS data there are two options:
- Install PVCS on the host where the import is being run. The PATH environment variable should point to the directory where get.exe is located.
OR
- If PVCS is not installed on the host where the import is being run then copy the get.exe tool from a host with PVCS installed. Again, the PATH environment variable should point to the directory where get.exe is located.
