Cleaning up the Web Services application server manually

When output is generated, temporary files are created on the server. If the -Dcom.ibm.rational.rpe.remote.debug flag set to true for the Web Services application, the temporary files are not deleted. When you have the -Dcom.ibm.rational.rpe.remote.debug flag set to true, periodically perform routine deletions of these temporary files and log files on the server where the Web Services application is deployed.

About this task

These temporary files include the temporary output generations that are not saved when documents are generated and log files. The temporary files are removed at the end of the document generation except when the -Dcom.ibm.rational.rpe.remote.debug flag is set to true for the Web Services application.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the temporary RPE directory in the application server installation files. Example: installation_files\temp\RPE\results

    The results directory contains folders by date for the document generation jobs. These dated folders might contain rpe.log files, .dsx document specifications, .dta template files, or the output files.

  2. Delete the folders that are contained in the results directory.
