If you are upgrading from HP Quality Center (QC) 11 or 11.52, you may want to know about new behaviors of the install and configuration process for QC/HP Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) 12.xx. When upgrading from HP QC 11, there is a ânewâ special project created by the configuration wizard, called the Lab_Project. This is used behind the scenes for an HP QC enterprise license but can be used to direct âserver-sideâ automated tests to be run (without having to have an HP QC client open) when using the HP ALM-level license.
The Bottom Line The HP Stream 11 aims to be a cloud-focused laptop, much like a Chromebook, but with the added utility of Windows 8. It's a rock-bottom budget laptop, so don't get your hopes up. Download Free Windows 11 ISO 64 bit 32-bit Update: The first thing that lovers of Windows 7 will like about Windows 11 is the reinstated start button. It makes it easy to access programs and other items from the start menu although it still features the tiled look that was introduced with Windows 8. I have a HP laptop, windows 7 32 pro I encountered a problem recently. The network and sharing center cannot be opened, when i click on it, it just pops an empty system window that i cant even move or remove. Some of my games arent opening anymore and the little network icon is always in the red thing.
If you are already at version 11.52, this Lab_Project already exists but can sometimes complicate the install of HP QC/HP ALM 12.xx. During the run of configuration wizard, it tries to find and upgrade the Lab_Project and also creates a new/blank one to use, just in case. Obviously, if you have an enterprise license, it does not matter if you use the blank Lab_Project. But, if you have the HP ALM-level license or plan to use this HP ALM instance with HP Performance Center, you need to upgrade the existing Lab_Project.
See the following posts from Eye on Testing regarding this subject:
We also get many questions about whether to upgrade the qcsiteadmin_db used by HP QC/HP ALM or to create a new one. The basic answer is to weigh what time/effort it would take to recreate your user listâor lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) settingsâand to correctly point to all of your projects again against the effort of making sure all the projects in the âinheritedâ project list are referred to correctly. Many customers take the path of upgrading this qcsiteadmin_db database/schema, but there are some precautions:
1. The projects will be listed in the Site Projects tab of Site Admin, but will not necessarily be pointing to the correct database and repository locationsâthis must be remedied prior to upgrading the projects (by Remove/editing the DBID file/and Restoring).

2. Upgraded LDAP settings may not work and may need to be reset before new a install of HP QC works with LDAP again.

During install, you will see the usual Server Configuration wizard. You will then be presented with a âSite Administration Database Schemaâ page. Here, you can choose:
In this article, we will be dealing with âUpgrading a copy of an existing schema,â assuming that you have already migrated your original qcsiteadmin_db from the old HP QC serverâs database.
1. Choose: âUpgrade a copy of the existing schemaâ
Make sure the schema name is the same as the one you restored into SQL-server (or Oracle) earlier. If you are using SQL-authentication (td user) or Oracle and have overridden the default schema password, make sure to type in the override password here for âSchema password.â
2. Provide a unique new name for the resulting copied and upgraded qcsiteadmin_db database. Here weâve used âqcsiteadmin_db1220â to indicate the intended HP QC version.
You will be presented with a pop-up about upgrading Lab Management (Lab_Project âprojectâ). If you were using this as part of HP Performance Center or HP ALM 11.5x, you need to also migrate that database (called âdefault_lab_project_dbâ or similar in the old database server [get the one referred to in the Projects table of your migrated qcsiteadmin_db]) as you did with qcsiteadmin_db, before you continue.
If you are not using HP ALM-level license, HP Performance Center, or donât know if you were using it, you can allow HP QC to create a new Lab_Project; however, if it sees one migrated, it will try to upgrade the one referred to in the Projects table of your migrated qcsiteadmin_db.
3. Provide the Security Passphrases â These must be the same as they were on the old HP QC server.
Next, you will see a page regarding security and specifying the confidential security and data passphrases. If you are upgrading qcsiteadmin_db, these must be the same phrases that were used on the old HP QC 11 â 11.52 server. If you do not know them, you can either pull them forward (still encrypted because HP QC will not reveal them to you) or start with a new/blank qcsiteadmin_db (see HP ALM 12.xx install guide section on âRecovering a Lost Confidential Data Passphraseâ).
If you do not have a migrated Lab Management (Lab_Project âprojectâ), you will see a dialog about creating a new empty Lab Management projectâallow it to do this.
4. Continue through the wizard as you did before on your old server and deploy/start HP ALM/HP QC.
5. Review the migrated/inherited project tree and user list seen in Site Administration
Notice that the HP QC/HP ALM 12.20 server now has the same project tree/user list.
Remember, we are not completely done yet! These projects are still pointing to the old database location and possibly a wrong repository location. The best practice now is to perform a right-click remove, then edit the DBID.xml file in the project repository to point to the new database location and repository (and possibly change the password string). Then, restore each project. You can then continue with a right-click/Maintain/Verify, then Repair and Upgrade each project.

![]() Known problems
A number of issues that users have encountered with this plug-in are caused by this issue: the HP Quality Center client files are not downloaded on the same system as the UrbanCode Deploy agent. Ensure that you are logged into the HP Quality Center server that uses a supported Internet Explorer version from the system that contains the UrbanCode Deploy agent. Supported browser versions are Internet Exploxer 7 and Internet Explorer 8. Launch Internet Explorer as Administrator to avoid Windows user account control issues.
You might encounter the following error when running plug-in steps:
How To Install Hp Quality Center 11 On Windows 7 DownloadMicrosoft VBScript runtime error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'TDApiOle80.TDConnection'
To resolve the problem, locate the
OTAClient.dll file, which is typically located in the %LOCALAPPDATA%HPALM-ClientHPQC_server_hostname directory. Then run the following command to register the OTAClient.dll file.
Occasionally, the Microsoft Windows Script Host stops working on the system that the Urban CodeDeploy agent is installed on, which causes unexpected behavior with the plug-in. If this happens, close the Windows Script Host dialog box on that system, and try again.
