1.0 Known problems

1.1 Rational Unified Process Configuration path cannot contain double byte characters

Due to a defect in Mozilla browser on Linux, RUP Configurations with double byte characters in the pathname cannot be displayed on Linux systems.

For users who want to configure the Process Browser window to display RUP Configurations other than the default product configurations, avoid using double byte characters in the path.

1.2 RUP Configuration folder name is incorrect for Brazilian Portuguese locale

In "[INSTALL_HOME]\RUP Configuration", the folder for the Brazilian Portuguese configuration is named "application_developer.pt_BR". The correct name should be "application developer.pt_BR". Please use one of the following workarounds.

1) Rename the folder containing the Brazilian Portuguese configuration from "application_developer.pt_BR" to "application developer.pt_BR".

or

2) Change the RUP Configuration location in Window -> Preferences -> Process to point to "[INSTALL_HOME]\RUP Configuration\application_developer.pt_BR".

1.3 Process Browser 'Back' and 'Forward' buttons do not work on Linux in some cases

'Back' and 'Forward' buttons may not work when browsing across different nodes on the left navigation tree. This will be fixed in next service release.

1.4 Default RUP Configuration path may be incorrect if launched from 'Rational Software Development Platform' menu launcher or command line

Users may see 'The file [NAME] cannot be found' error message when opening the Process Browser window. The workaround is to click Window->Preferences->Process, and then set the 'RUP Configuration' location to [RAD_INSTALL_HOME]/RUP Configuration/application developer for RAD or [RSA_INSTALL_HOME]/RUP Configuration/architect for RSA.

1.5 Potential issue with localized RUP configuration when launchpad.bin is used to install the product

If you used launchpad.bin to install the product, the localized RUP configuration for your locale may not work properly. To work around this issue, uninstall the product then reinstall with the setup.bin executable located in the setup sub directory on the installation disk.
