Error creating work item with RTC 5 in Eclipse Luna

I have Eclipse Luna and upgraded my RTC plugins recently to 5.x. File->New->Work Item->Defect gives a dialog box with the following:

An internal error occurred during: "Creating Work Item". com.ibm.team.workitem.common.model.AttributeTypes (initialization failure)

I recently upgraded Luna from 3.x to 5.x client apis.

Hi David,
Can you look into <your-workspace>/.metadata/.log file and provide what are the errors/stack traces there?

Did you install Luna and then installed the RTC P2 client into it, or how did you get there? Which exact RTC version are you using?

What does "I recently upgraded Luna from 3.x to 5.x client apis." mean?

.log file has this (among others)
!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.jobs 4 2 2015-02-17 11:03:22.518

RTC-Client-p2Repo-5.0.2.zip.  I installed the archive via Help->Install New Softwared->Archive

Not a fix, but the solution was to start with a new Luna and install RTC into it from scratch, that is, not upgrade from 3.x.

That is why I was asking for What does "I recently upgraded Luna from 3.x to 5.x client apis." mean?

It is always safer to use a clean install of the correct version. Since there is no better specification what you did to upgrade, I suggest to take this a s a guideline.

So i will lower my expectations in the future.

Hi David,
I would suggest you opening new PMR for the support to further investigate the issue
