RTC 1.0.1 installed with Eclipse 3.4.x

I've downloaded, and installed, the recent Ganymede Eclipse 3.4.1 (Classic Package). When using the IBM Install Manager to install the RTC 1.0.1 client, I choose to extended that exsiting 3.4.1 Eclipse IDE. I received no pre-req errors as detailed in this work item
https://jazz.net/jazz/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/63965
but now the Eclipse IDE will not start nor will RTC using
eclipse.exe -product com.ibm.team.concert.product. I tried using the -consolelog option to gain some output but there was none on the windows command line console.
I've seen several posts about RTC 1.0.1 and Ganymede issues. Is there an answer for "Is Ganymede Supported?" and how do I get it to run by extending my existing IDE.

I did manage to get some console output using eclipsec.exe. I'm including that output here.
Also, when I said eclipse or RTC will not start, there are no error messages or crash indications.

(to execute a class)
or javaw.exe jarfile

where options include:
-cp -classpath <directories>
set search path for application classes and resources

set a system property
-verbose
enable verbose output
-version print product version
-showversion print product version and continue

Hello user@domain.invalid,

I downloaded the PDE Eclipse 3.4.1 (Ganymede) and did exactly the same using
the installer. It does appear to work fine.
I got no issues whatoever and it appears to work fine.

Ralph

I haven't had much luck either... Let me know if you ever get it
working...

Hello,
please find below instructions related to the install of the RTC Client
on top Eclipse 3.4:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=3488&context=SSCP65&context=SSSTY3&q1=eclipse&uid=swg21319530&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8&lang=en

Also note that you need an Eclipse install that has the JDT bundle.
@see

Hope it helps.
Eric.

There may be an issue with doing extending of an existing Eclipse IDE with an RTC install on Windows XP PRO SP3. This is where it initially failed for me in that it wouldn't start after the install. I tried this same install on a Windows XP PRO SP2 system and it installed successfully and the Ganymede 3.4.1 IDE Starts OK without issues.

I'm also running into problems installing the ClearCase Remote Client for Eclipse on XP PRO SP3. This install works fine with SP2 of XP PRO. I have a PMR opened on that issue with ClearCase.

I'll open a work item to have this addressed in RTC.
