Hi, I am having problems installing RTC Client 4.0.5 Client p2 repo on top of a Eclipse 3.6.2 which I think stills being supported as IDE platform.
After installing it, Eclipse won't start any more and .log file has some NoSuchMethodErrors which I think are caused because the plug-ins installed are trying to use Eclipse 4.x new APIs I didn't find any documented issue or change in the Release Notes. Any help? This is the .log content after a clean installation: !SESSION 2014-01-29 20:28:32.245 ----------------------------------------------- eclipse.buildId=M20110210-1200 java.version=1.7.0_45

Hi Jose,
You need to download a fix from IBM Fix Central. The detailed steps on preparing Eclipse 3.6.2 can be found at: Install RTC Eclipse Client 4.0 into an existing Eclipse 3.6.2 using Installation Manager This is still valid for p2 installation. Jose Miguel Ordax Cassa selected this answer as the correct answer
Comments I have already tried it. That works! Jose, please try it.
I have also created jazz.net defect to correct the documentation: https://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Rational%20Team%20Concert#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=300845
Great. I installed successfully RTC Client 4.0.5 p2 repo on top of Eclipse 3.6.2 for Java EE installing on top of it first:

3.6.2.3 is supported:
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/CLMSystemRequirements#B4_Eclipse_IDE_RTC_Eclipse_Clien *but* the generic version downloadable from eclipse.org is not supported (never was). You need to first apply the IES patches on Eclipse. That's why the wiki document says "IES 3.6.2.3 is bundled with the RTC client". I believe this particular error is caused by the lack of IES fixes. |
Hi Jose,
Piotr is right. Anyway I have used Eclipse JEE with RTC client. It is possible that you have already tried to install couple of additional IES patches which caused that issue. Could you please try installing RTC on fresh Eclipse JEE with Eclipse Modeling Framework SDK Update as mentioned in the following technote: https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=3488&uid=swg21502374&wv=1 (please notice that this configuration should work but will be supported on best effort basis) ? Let us know if that helps. Comments Hi Krzysztof. Thanks for the suggestion...
There is, and I will let you know as soon as I find it, which may be not before today afternoon.
Hi, we have tested the RTC 4.0.5 p2 bits with an standard Eclipse 4.2 and it works fine. So it is confirmed that the issue is because the p2 bits are only valid for Eclipse v4.2 version. Where can I find p2 bits for Eclipse v3.6?
One additional finding.... we tested RTC 4.0.2 p2 bits on top of Eclipse 3.6 and it works.
Can you also try running the non-working instance by executing eclipse -clean?
We did, but Eclipse doesn't start.
Hi Jose,
Also tried installing Eclipse jee on RTC extracted from plain zip but I got missing dependencies error during installation.
Not really, I contacted the IES lead, and he gave me the link, but there are hundreds of patches there, and there is no way to tell which ones are needed by RTC. He said the product team needs to provide a download location
Yes, we have tried -clean option and the error is the same.
There has been a defect opened https://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Jazz%20Support%20%28Private%29#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=300539
