Problem Installing RTC 4.0.3 Into Eclipse Juno

I unpacked the Eclipse 4.2 SR2 Java EE bundle and started Eclipse.  I then downloaded RTC-Client-Eclipse4.2-repo-4.0.3.zip and unpacked it.  I added a new Software Site, file:/C:/D/tempInstall/RTC-Client-Eclipse4.2-repo-4.0.3/im/repo/rtc-client-full-p2-offering/offering-repo/.  I can click the Reload button on the Software Sites dialog and get a message that the information for this repo has been loaded from the server -- so Eclipse seems to think this is a valid Software Site.  However, when I try to use this site, I'm told that there are no items available for installation.

Oddly, I used this same mechanism to install RTC 4.0.1 back when we upgraded our server to 4.0.1 and it worked just fine.  (Today's installation was into a fresh Eclipse directory tree; it was not an attempt to upgrade 4.0.1 to 4.0.3.)  Any thoughts on what might be wrong?

Hi Chris,


This might have been a Eclipse bug. Can you try this? Uncheck "Group items by category"...

Thanks, Clement.  I did try that -- it didn't make any difference.

Not sure why it was working for your 4.0.1 but you were supposed to use IBM Installation Manager with the RTC-Client-Eclipse4.2-repo-4.0.3.zip. Can you try using the p2 repo instead? 

1. Download this p2 repo

2. Follow this instruction to have it installed in your 4.2 SR2 Eclipse. Skip to Step 5

Hope it helps. Thanks.

Ohhhhh!  I guess the "im" in the path should have been a clue.  Thanks, both Tim and Clement!  However, there must be something wrong with jazz.net right now.  When I try to download this p2Repo, I accept the license agreement, get to a page where my download should begin shortly.  It doesn't, so I click the provided link and get:

Error 400

https://199.246.40.117:9443/mirror/downloads/rational-team-concert/4.0.3/4.0.3/RTC-Client-p2Repo-4.0.3.zip?tjazz=LX6m3Ph4ugs560n89LeXspor34rg97".

I just tried https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/releases/4.0.3/RTC-Client-p2Repo-4.0.3.zip and it worked fine. Maybe the problem with jazz.net has been fixed.

Yes, just tried it myself.  It is working now and the p2Repo is what I needed.  Thanks to all!

The path suggests you downloaded the IM install, which is a different type of repository. If you're using the Eclipse p2 install, you'll need the p2 repo. Otherwise, you can get Install Manager and use the IM repo that you have.
