ClearCase [cleartool] commands error messages and error handling - clearcase

I'm writing a program that automates some frequently used actions in my development area,
this tasks involve running cleartool commands from a shell script (by java runtime).
is there any documentation to cleartool/clearcase commands error messages/exit values and causes? i would like to parse the process output and handle issues/return a response based on that.
is there an easier way to combine java and clearcase than executing shell scripts from the java runtime ? i could not find any clearcase packages for java that actually does the work...
P.S
im only running basic commands... checkout,checkin,make view, make activity, etc' and am using clearcase UCM.
Thanks!

The official cleartool documentation is on ibm.com:
cleartool ClearCase 7.x
For ClearCase 7.1.x/7.2, you have a Java API (the Change Management API (CM API)).
As mentioned in the cleartool page, in interactive mode, cleartool -status returns the status (0 or 1) of each cleartool subcommand executed.
So in non-interactive mode:
The exit status from single-command mode depends on whether the command succeeded (zero exit status) or generated an error message (nonzero exit status).
But if you want to see other API examples, most Build Schedulers have a ClearCase API, like Jenkins: see for instance "simpleclearcase/ClearTool.java" in the SimpleClearCase-Plugin.
See an example of "exit status catching" in Java at simpleclearcase/ClearTool.java#L381-L386
Note that changes with ClearCase 8.X (ClearTeam), which has a CCRC (ClearCase Remote Client) API rcleartool

VOLTTRON install on rasbian buster

Can I get a tip for installing on rasp buster? Im hung up on the install directions to check the status of the rabbitMQ server. Traceback of bash console:
(volttron) pi#raspberry:~/Desktop/volttron $ echo 'export RABBITMQ_HOME=$HOME/rabbitmq_server/rabbitmq_server-3.7.7'|sudo tee --append ~/.bashrc
export RABBITMQ_HOME=$HOME/rabbitmq_server/rabbitmq_server-3.7.7
(volttron) pi#raspberry:~/Desktop/volttron $ source ~/.bashrc
pi#raspberry:~/Desktop/volttron $ RABBITMQ_HOME/sbin/rabbitmqctl status
bash: RABBITMQ_HOME/sbin/rabbitmqctl: No such file or directory
There are a few tracebacks earlier on the installation...
If it makes a difference or not here is the entire bash console process. The git gist link I just created the name install.py even though its just bash commands copied pasted per install directions...
`pi#raspberry:~/Desktop $ git clone https://github.com/VOLTTRON/volttron --branch releases/7.x`
It looks like there are a couple of different issues going on here:
The issue you quote above (RABBITMQ_HOME/sbin/rabbitmqctl: No such file or directory) is that your shell isn't finding the rabbitmqctl command. It looks like you added the RABBITMQ_HOME environment variable to your .bashrc, but used the string RABBITMQ_HOME instead of the variable expansion $RABBITMQ_HOME when you tried to run the command. Try running it as $RABBITMQ_HOME/sbin/rabbitmqctl status instead.
The rabbitmqctl status command will check the status of the rabbitmq application, but I don't think you've done anything to start it yet (that happens when you bootstrap the platform and/or start the platform configured to use the RMQ broker)
I think that the traces earlier in the installation process are problematic (appears to be the same error hit two different ways), but you just haven't run into them yet. I haven't seen any issues building gevent on the RPi 4 with buster (though it is pretty slow), but the ctypes error makes me wonder if there's an issue with the underlying c library it is trying to build on top of. I did notice that you're getting amd64 erlang packages, are you running Raspbian on an x86 processor? (if so this isn't a permutation we've tried and you may be hitting some package compatibility edge case we haven't seen)
One thing to try is to manually install cython into your virtualenvironment and then try running the bootstrap script again with the virtualenvironment activated. You could also try and pip install gevent==20.6.1 directly in that virtualenvironment (this is what the bootstrap script was doing at the failure point). VOLTTRON depends on gevent, so if that isn't installing the platform won't be able to run.

KNIME Command Line Execution - ClassNotFoundException

I'd like to schedule a KNIME workflow. The workflow does its job very good as long as I start it from the KNIME GUI application. When I execute the same workflow via command line, java complains that com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
could not be found (ClassNotFoundException).
I invoke it via:
"D:\Progamme\KNIME\knime.exe" -nosplash -application -consoleLog org.knime.product.KNIME_BATCH_APPLICATION -preferences="absolutepathto\preferences.epf" -workflowDir="absolutepathto\workflow"
Since the error message signals missing content in the java CLASSPATH I also tried to add the parameters
-vmargs -classpath .;"absolutepathto/sqljdbc42.jar"
But still I earn a java slap, pointing to the same error...
I also tried to run the command from within the knime.exe's directory and I also tried to add the JAR file to Preferences -> Java -> Build Path -> Classpath Variable / User Libraries (referenced via the -preference argument). But that had no effect.
Did anybody face the same problems? Maybe with other third party JARs?
It is all about a Database connector that is configured like this:
Does the integrated security maybe force a misleading error?
System spec: KNIME 3.2.2 on Windows Server 2008 R2

/configuration/org.eclipse.ui.ide/SHOW_RECENT_WORKSPACES=false
/configuration/org.eclipse.ui.ide/SHOW_WORKSPACE_SELECTION_DIALOG=true
Is there maybe a problem due to the fact that it is a shared KNIME instance among several users and the command line execution does not know which workspace has to be chosen? Is the workspace somehow needed and why?
Partial Solution:
I finally managed it but I don't know exactly why it works now. What I did was to load a fresh portable version of KNIME and ran the same commands only changing the executable path to the new portable version. Before that I started the portable version once to set the workspace directory and register the database driver in preferences dialog and .ini file, nothing else, same configuration so far as the shared KNIME instance. What I am really wondering abpout is that from now on the commands are also working with the shared KNIME instance. I really don't know what caused the change that let KNIME find the driver class.
Info
Because I encountered a few more problems within shared environment in KNIME command line mode, that led to undeterministic execution results, I wrote a little .NET library. This gives me more flexibility/control over the workflow execution (which returncodes and error messages occured and so on). You can find it here if you're interested: KnimeNet
I took a very minimal approach:
cd "C:\Program Files\KNIME"
.\knime -nosplash -noexit -consoleLog -reset -application org.knime.product.KNIME_BATCH_APPLICATION -workflowFile="D:\Work\Knime Workflows\Output\CMD_Test.knwf" -preferences="D:\Work\Knime Workflows\Output\CMD_Test.epf"

It seems like it's trying to execute some Java command which isn't done properly. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

TortoiseSVN batch file output info

I am trying to do the equivalent of the following Linux command with a Windows batch file and TortoiseSVN.
svn info > info.txt
I have tried the following with no luck:
start /wait "" "c:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe" /command:info >> %CD%\info.txt
I am running Windows with TortoiseSVN v1.6.16 so I don't have access to the command line tools.
Note: We were encountering issues with the newer version of TortoiseSVN so we went back to 1.6 until issues are resolved with a newer version and the company upgrades the server to that version.
Your construction didn't work, doesn't work and will never work due to zero-bits of trueness:
start (with and without /wait) have sense in bat-file only if you have more than one bat-process starting from this bat (compare with call), for called GUI it doesn't differ from direct using program-name
TortoiseProc is GUI-app after all, it emits nothing to stdout
Info was and is unknown command for TortoiseProc, thus you'll get only GUI-window "About"
:about Shows the about dialog. This is also shown if no command is
given
In addition to correct suggestion "Update to at least 1.8 on client and have CLI-tools" you can consider following solutions:
Install from unrelated to TortoiseSVN sources pure CLI SVN-client (also 1.6.* - from WanDisco will be good choice) at the same as TSVN or another location (I done it at the times of 1.6)
Study and use subwcrev (it was part of TortoiseSVN even in 1.6, AFAICR) and emulate some part of svn info in subwcrev's template-file with correct keywords

WAMP: How to "Install Database Schema by Running Command ..."

At a higher-ed institution and I am trying to install an app called "Guide on the Side" (https://github.com/ualibraries/Guide-on-the-Side). It sits on a LAMP stack of varying flavors, but--of course--we are a Windows-based institution. My question is of the "what does that mean!?" variety.
I have my db created, the config "configurated," but then there's the following procedure:
Install the database schema by running the following commands from the guide_on_the_side/app folder:
../lib/Cake/Console/cake Migrations.migration --plugin Tags all
../lib/Cake/Console/cake Migrations.migration all
Can someone translate? Can I actually "run" this in a windows cmd. I've some familiarity with terminals in *Nix OS's but I neeeeever touch the command line on Windows, so I'm just out of my element.
cake is a console command (shell script) for the CakePHP application framework.
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/console-and-shells.html
You should be able to run the cake command from the Windows shell (it will refer to the cake.bat batch file).
You may need to make other adjustments for running CakePHP apps on IIS.
