Setting the path for cleartool

Please guide me how do I run cleartool on my machine. I have searched on the internet, everwhere I am getting the path till bin to set in environment variables. But the issue with my setup is, i cannot see bin folder in clearcase.

Path for clearcase on my machine is

C: -> Program Files (x86) -> IBM -> RationalSDLCS -> clearcase -> RemoteClient

I can see rcleartool.bat and rcleartool.conf. When I tried to run bat file, it runs for few sec and getting closed after that.

Is there any other way to run cleartool without bin folder from machine?

One more path is C: -> Program Files (x86) -> IBM -> SDPS -> bin I tried to set the path and run but not working. While running cleartool on command prompt, getting this error

cleartool' is not recognized as an internal or external command
Solution

  • When I tried to run bat file, it runs for few sec and getting closed after that.

    Check your ClearCase version, and complete your question with the output of that command.
    Make sure to execute the rcleartool.bat in an existing CMD session, instead of just doube-clicking it: that way, the output won't "disappear".

    rcleartool is the remote CLI for CCRC (7.x and 8.0.x)

    The OP AIM confirms to be a PATH issue:

    I set the path till cleartool only. I took some time.
    I had to start 3-4 times and finally it worked without setting the path till bin folder.
