P2 Install does not show up in Installation details. And how to upgrade.
I've installed the RTC 4.0.3 client, P2 install, into J2EE Keppler SR1 (Eclipse 4.3.1).
When I open Help->About from eclipse, the RTC icon is not present in the first window. When i click on installation details, it lists: Rational Team Concert Client Feature 4.2.100.RTC-I20130517-1856 com.ibm.team.rtc.client.feature.feature.group IBM Opening that up, most of the elements have a version of 3.0.something. Nothing is labelled version 4. Thankfully, on the Welcome panel in help it does say have a hotlink labelled: What's new in Rational Team Concert 4.0.3 Learn about the new and changed features in Rational Team Concert™ 4.0.3. How is one to know for certain what version of RTC I'm running? Is this an artifact of the P2 method of installing? Also, please tell me if I can upgrade to 4.0.5 P2 client by simply installing it the same way I did 4.0.3? or is there another path for upgrades vs. installs? |

Upgrades and installs of the client are the same. Either install both the client RTC plugin and eclipse from jazz.net or Install the p2 plugin into an existing eclipse client that does not already have an RTC plugin installed.
BTW: When I move to a new version, I do a side by side install and create a new workspace. This way if something goes wrong, i can easily revert back to the old version. Comments

Thank you for the response. But I would like to install the p2 405 install into an eclipse env that already has the 403 client. Will that work, or do i need to create a new eclipse install?
Thanks for clarifying.

May be a good idea to open a defect or PMR....and provide detailed steps on how to recreate. This way if it is determined to be a bug, it can be fixed in a future release.
One other thing to try is to go to the all downloads section of RTC 4.0.6 to get the latest version of IM and see if the problem can be reproduced. |
