How to fix it ? 

 

Environment

Release : 18.1

Component : CA Endevor Software Change Manager

Resolution

Web Services issue the member does not exist or not readable error if :
1) member such as ENVIRONMENT_FILE or TOMCAT_STC does not exist in STC_DATASET
or
2)  someone is editing those members during the web services installation

According to comments in ENWSInstallOptions.properties: 
Tomcat starting JCL (TOMCAT_STC) and Tomcat Environment file (ENVIRONMENT_FILE) should be copied from the CSIQJCL to WSTOM_DATASET before the installation is started.

Solution:
Make sure ENVIRONMENT_FILE or TOMCAT_STC exist in STC_DATASET, and no one is editing them during the Web Services installation.
