Closed as program error.
Error description
In CQ 7.1.*, you can set query limits like HARD_QUERY_LIMIT, SOFT_QUERY_LIMITT to restrict the resultset by a query. This is especially useful in web to tackle stability issues. It is recommended that customers set up query limits to prevent CMserver crashes when users run huge queries. Unfortunately, this can affect queries using the API and called in hooks, or choice-list hooks referencing users etc. There should be a way to get the full restultset that exceeds the query hard limit if explicitly requested in a hook.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** ClearQuest choice list hooks which call the BuildQuery API do not return the full result set if it exceeds the HARD_QUERY_LIMIT value.
Problem conclusion
A fix is available in ClearQuest 8.0.1.2. The SetMaxResultSetRows() API can now be added to your ClearQuest choice list hook to allow the query row count to exceed the HARD_QUERY_LIMIT value.
