Configure the BIRT Report Viewer with the ClearQuest® Reporting Driver for running ClearQuest reports. The required
files for the ClearQuest Reporting
Driver are available from the reports folder
in the ClearQuest home
directory.
About this task
Note: These configuration instructions are for BIRT version
2.6.2. For information about and selecting and installing other BIRT
versions, see
Technote 1509579 .
To run BIRT reports
from ClearQuest data
sources, copy the ClearQuest Reporting
Driver files to the appropriate directory of the BIRT web application.
The ClearQuest Reporting
Driver files are packaged as Eclipse plug-ins that are installed automatically
with any ClearQuest feature.
You can find the plug-ins in this directory:
- Windows
- %CLEARQUEST_HOME%\reports\driver
- UNIX and Linux
- $CLEARQUEST_HOME/reports/driver
The BIRT Viewer plug-ins are found in the WebSphere Application Server profile directory
where ClearQuest applications
are deployed. The default profile directories for Windows, UNIX,
and Linux platforms are:
- Windows
- cq_profile_dir\installedApps\dfltCell\<birt-war.ear>\birt.war\WEB-INF\platforms\plugins
- UNIX and Linux
- cq_profile_dir/installedApps/dfltCell/<birt-war.ear>/birt.war/WEB-INF/platforms/plugins
Where
cq_profile_dir is the default
WebSphere Application profile directory that contains both the ClearQuest
applications and the files for the BIRT server runtime environment.
Note: The
default WebSphere Application Server cell directory is dfltCell on
Windows, Unix, and Linux platforms. On the Solaris platform, the default
is <srv>Node01Cell.
