Symptom: Unable to start PlasticSCM.
Error: Root element is missing.
Full text of error: "the client configuration file "client.conf""
Actions:
I tried reinstalling. I have also tried running the configure command.
What to do?
Solution:
Delete "client.conf" under "C:\Users\youruser\AppData\Local\plastic4"
Rerun the "cm configure" command and/or reinstall.
Those files are not deleted under reinstallation to not break the configuration between upgrades. Thus they have to be deleted manually.
