What to do next

If the project list for the Rational RequisitePro Data Services does not show new projects even though Rational RequisiteWeb shows them, the path to the catalog.txt might need updated. The catalog.txt file lists all the projects that are to be used by Rational RequisitePro. Ensure that the path for the catalog.txt file is correctly specified for the VegaDataServices.Adaptor.RequisitePro.CatalogFilePath parameter.
