I don't know (because you didn't tell) how exeactly you create your view, but this may involve e.g. a 'storage location' which uses a 'network share', and assume this one is defined. Check maybe (again, on the command line): cleartool lsstgloc -view Marc Shrutika wrote: > When I try creating a view I get this error The network share does not exist Try the command:

I'm trying to create a VOB on a local disk, rather than a network share, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it, if it is even possible. First, I http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13694660/is-it-possible-to-create-a-clearcase-vob-on-a-local-disk tried just using a regular path, e.g.: cleartool mkvob -tag \vobFoo C:\Users\Public\cc_vobs\vobFoo.vbs cleartool: Error: storage directory must be in UNC style (e.g. \\host\share\...) After finding this question, my next attempt was this: cleartool mkvob -tag \vobFoo \\localhost\c$\Users\Public\cc_vobs\vobFoo.vbs cleartool: Error: Attempt to get location information on "\\localhost\c$\Users\Public\cc_vobs\vobFoo.vbs" failed: Invalid argument. I checked - typing \\localhost\c$\Users into the "Run..." menu does bring up the proper folder in Windows Explorer, so I don't think it's an issue with the loopback adapter. I did find some references to the error message here and here, but neither seems applicable to my situation (I'm not using UNIX and ClearCase Doctor doesn't give me the relevant error message) Even after setting up a Windows share, this also failed: cleartool mkvob -tag \vobFoo \\localhost\cc_vobs\vobFoo.vbs cleartool: Error: Attempt to get location information on "\\localhost\cc_vobs\vobFoo.vbs" failed: Invalid argument. The only way I could get the command to go through was to use the network host name with the share: cleartool mkvob -tag \vobFoo \\hostname\cc_vobs\vobFoo.vbs Is it simply not possible to setup a VOB in a local storage location like I'm trying to do? Or am I missing something? clearcase cleartool share|improve this question edited Dec 4 '12 at 1:26 asked Dec 4 '12 at 1:21 Kevin K 6,53512151 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up
