Cause

Corrupted files in the $SPECROOT/custom/svdsk/config/ directory:

  • nim-server-config.xml
  • service-desk-config.xml
  • service-desk-config.xml.bak

Environment

Release : 20.2

Component : Spectrum OneClick

Resolution

Please follow these steps:

1. Move the following files under the $SPECROOT/custom/svdsk/config/ directory to a temporary directory:

  • nim-server-config.xml
  • service-desk-config.xml
  • service-desk-config.xml.bak

2. Copy the OOB (Out Of the Box) files from $SPECROOT/tomcat/webapps/spectrum/WEB-INF/svdsk/config/ directory to the $SPECROOT/custom/svdsk/config/ directory.

  • nim-server-config.xml
  • service-desk-config.xml

3. Stop/start the Spectrum Tomcat service.

$ cd $SPECROOT/tomcat/bin

$ ./stopTomcat.sh

$ ./startTomcat.sh

4. On the OneClick Administration page, go to the Service Desk integration page review the configuration.
