This article documents the steps needed for this to be setup correctly.

Environment

Release:
Component: ARGIS

Resolution

"NX_ROOT" represents the location of the Service Desk Manager installation directory.

  1. Ensure CA PAM options are set properly in CA SDM Options Manager (i.e. correct hostnames etc.)
  2. Shutdown CA SDM
  3. Kill any left behind javaw.exe processes using Windows Task Manager or using the following command via command prompt: pdm_kill javaw.exe
  4. Follow steps 1 through 5 documented in the "Deploy CA SDM Mobile Enabler" from CA SDM Mobile Enabler Implementation Guide.
  5. Delete the directory NX_ROOT\bopcfg\www\CATALINA_BASE_REST\webapps\workflow
  6. Start CA SDM Server Service
  7. Monitor the pdm_tomcat_REST.log file from NX_ROOT\log directory and look for an entry like below:

    org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start
    INFO: Server startup in 83725 ms

    Note: The above indicates that the CA SDM REST tomcat has started successfully.

  8. Stop CA SDM Server Service
  9. Edit NX_ROOT\bopcfg\www\CATALINA_BASE_REST\webapps\approve\app\misc\configuration.json with a text editor
  10. Change the timeout from 1 minute to 5 minutes on the line below:

    /* The number of minutes to wait for a response. Defaults to 1 minute if no value specified or 0 */
    "timeout_duration_minutes": "1"
    Change it to a higher value (i.e. 5 minutes)
    /* The number of minutes to wait for a response. Defaults to 1 minute if no value specified or 0 */
    "timeout_duration_minutes": "5"
    Note: You could increase it to a higher value, though 5 minutes should be sufficient.

  11. Repeat Steps #6 and #7 above.
  12. Access the CA Service Desk Manager (CA SDM) Mobile Enabler Approvals application.

    Note: If you get an error like below in pdm_tomcat_REST.log file:

    SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener

It usually indicates that the workflow.war did not get deployed properly.

Verify if you have several .class files (about 80 or more files) in:
NX_ROOT\bopcfg\www\CATALINA_BASE_REST\webapps\workflow\WEB-INF\classes\com\ca\ServicePlus\pdm_rpc\proxies\ItpamService

To resolve this error, follow Steps #2 and #3 in the above again.
