RTC plugin for Eclipse Mars Not Working
Hi
I'm really struggling and tried all Jazz articles I could get. We're running RTC 6.0.2 and develop in Eclipse Win 64 bit. I am trying to install the plugin on my eclipse. I did that by downloading p2 zip from 6.0.2. all downloads site and installing it. It actually install successful. See attached screen clip. But after restart, there's no welcome page and I can't find any place to set it up - like where do I specify my Jazz server name and port, etc. Two questions then: 1. Is it even compatible? Is there some additional packages I must install? 2. How do I set it up? Thanks |

It would be a great help if we could settle on the Eclipse version number and not use all these hip disguising aliases. Once the Eclipse version number is known, please check which Eclipse versions are supported by RTC. Go to the version download page on Jazz.net and check the system requirements link on the Getting Started tab.
Please note that The IBM products are actually based on a different Eclipse release with more fixes by IBM. It could be possible that some of the fixes are needed. Anyway, if the version is supported, chances are good it works. If not, it may does not work. Have you tried to open the work item perspective? Note, if you install P2 RTC in an Eclipse, the standard Eclipse setup starts and you don't necessarily see the IBM Welcome Page. You have to know how to open a perspective.

Comments Thanks for the quick answer Ralph.
Excellent - Going from 4.5.1 to 4.5.2 solved the issue! Thanks!
Glad it works for you now!

In general, to find the Eclipse version information for a release, go to the page:
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/CLMSystemRequirements602 (replace "602" with whatever release you are looking for). - Click on the RTC button, select the prerequisites tab, and scroll down to the "Eclipse Runtime Environment" section. If you haven't memorized that jazz.net/wiki URL (:-), you can also get there by: - Go to jazz.net, and hover over "products". - Click on "Rational Team Concert" radio button, and click the "Download" button, which should bring you to the RTC download page: https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/ - Click on the version you want, which should bring you to a page such as: https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/releases/6.0.2 - Click on the "Optional Programs" tab, and click on the "system requirements" button in the first paragraph, which should bring you to the jazz.net/wiki page, such as: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/CLMSystemRequirements602 |
