Why does RPE 2.1 rpeng bring up strange GUI?

Getting this error on both FireFox and Chrome.  I brought up Developer Tools, and it looks like there are 404 errors loading resources from css_ and js_ directories.  I checked for the folders under tomcat/webaps/rpeng, and these directories do not exist.  Instead, they are named css_20160518_1159 and js_20160518_1159.  Any idea what went wrong?


Thanks,
Robert

Hi Robert,

Thanks for sharing detailed information. The css and javascript are not being loaded singe the build and version number is blank. Hence, the UI is not rendered correctly.

I installed RPE 2.1 iFix001 on Windows 7, Tomcat 8.x and Derby and I was able to get the UI correctly and the request URL for css and js files were correct.
http://localhost:8081/rpeng/css_20160714_1237/home.css

>>> Instead, they are named css_20160518_1159 and js_20160518_1159.  Any idea what went wrong?
The directory names are correct.
- What are the contents of the following file? TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\rpeng\servicesStore\version.properties. It should be
version_number=2.1
build_id=20160518_1159
- Which JRE version are you using? and additionally, is it IBM JRE?

Thanks,
Kumar

 Thanks, Kumar.  I will install IFIX001.

 I installed IFIX001 and redeployed the RPE WAR files but that did not help.

Kumar provided me with the answer in his comment above.  I needed to install the IBM JRE.  Once I did that and set the JRE_HOME environment variable, everything worked perfectly.
