No problem. Glad to help, Todd.
I'm curious as to whether this is a bug or not. It could be an Eclipse
issue though since I'd imagine that users of other Eclipse-based products
must've tried installing other plug-ins through update sites before. But
then when you consider that, surely someone must've reported this bug
before?

Thanks Rem! -clean appears to have done the trick.

Hi Todd,

I should mention this is different from the error-ed view I got running
the Jazz client in Linux.
For this view error, I recommend that you restart Team Concert with the
'-clean' argument...
./TeamConcert -clean
...or whatever the binary is called. I have seen this problem before. It
occurred to after installing WST and then choosing to restart after the UM
directly. This happened to me on Windows XP. If I chose not to restart,
and to restart it manually with the -clean argument, the problem is fixed.
It is rather odd because I have always been under the assumption that
restarts invoked by the UM would be identical to a -clean...but apparently
not.
Root exception:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.log4j.Category
at java.lang.J9VMInternals.verifyImpl(Native Method)
at java.lang.J9VMInternals.verify(J9VMInternals.java:66)
at java.lang.J9VMInternals.initialize(J9VMInternals.java:127)
Could it be possible that you have two log4j bundles and it is causing
problems? I don't know how smart the UM is with regards to this.

Thanks James,
Unfortunately, after unzipping EMF v2.3.0
into my jazz/client, I'm getting a similar set of fatal startup errors.
Log file attached.
A separate install of just the WST also produces the error seen in the log.

Is the WTP known to be incompatible?
I don't know about WTP as a whole but I've installed WST through the
update manager on M2 using the Europa update site without any problems.
Could you provide a stack trace?

Hi Rem,
I checked the Web Tools box (I can't remember the exact name),
selecting all four sub-bits and their required packages. When I
clicked the popup to restart, TeamConcert did not come up. Attached
is the stack trace from the workspace log,
I should mention this is different from the error-ed view I got
running the Jazz client in Linux.

I think in order to get WTP to install/work properly, you need to
download and unzip the whole EMF SDK. TeamConcert ships with a subset of
EMF, not the entire thing, and WTP requires more than our subset provides.
Hope this helps.
