Just Patched ALM, not getting ”OTA version is not compatible” error
Question ID: 105306

We just patched our QC11 server to patch #16 from #9. Now, we have a few users unable to login to QC and are getting this message:

"OTA version is not compatible with the Application Lifecycle Management server.
http://myqcserver:8080/qcbin/wcomsrv.dll.
OTA version: 11. OTA build number 7274. Server version 11. server build number: 8277.".

This is very critical since users are unable to login.

We tried the ALMUninstaller.exe and uninstalled the Excel Add-in which did not help.
We also did the ALM Client Registration using the following link did not help either: http://:/qcbin/start_a.jsp?common=true

Any Ideas?

GoBroncos:
Please try this MANUAL ALM client uninstall method (not on SERVER).

Then re-visit your ALM URL to install client (and ''register the ALM client'' if doing any integrations) again.

It should work for ALM11 AND ALM11.52.

For Vista or Windows 7 clients:

**1. Clear Common Files**

1.1. Open the folders:

1.1.1. c:Program FilesCommon files

1.1.2. %LOCALAPPDATA%HP

1.1.3. %ALLUSERSPROFILE%HP

1.2. Delete all folders that might have to do with Quality Center ALM Platform:

1.2.1. Mercury

1.2.2. Mercury Interactive

1.2.3. HP- only if Quality Center folder is under it

1.2.4. ALM-Platform

1.2.5. ALM-Client

**2. Clear Temporary folder**

2.1. Open the command line

2.2. Type %temp% and click Enter

2.3. Delete all folder that have might to do with Quality Center

2.3.1. Quality Center

2.3.2. Mercury

2.3.3. Mercury Interactive

2.3.4. TD_80

2.4. Delete the following files

2.4.1. interop.ALPLoader.dll

2.4.2. interop.ALM-Platform-Loader.11.cab

**3. Clear Registry- Only on a client machine- not on a server!**

3.1. Open the command line

4.3. In the window that opened navigate to tab General
