IBM Rational Team Concert 6.x Extensibility workshop: Import of plugins fails
I am going through the IBM Rational Team Concert 6.x Extensibility workshop. Everything works fine until I am trying to import the plugins for Jetty based launches (item __31. starting on page 37). When I run the import wizard it always comes up with an empty list.
I think I followed the instructions exactly with two deviations:
- I installed everything in C:\Users\Stephan Gambke\RTC603Dev\ instead if C:\RTC603Dev\
- I use the included JRE 1.7 for RTC, but JRE 1.8 for Eclipse Oxygen. (To make up for that I registered the JRE 1.7 in Eclipse under Preferences > Installed JREs and used it for the Target Platform)
Did I miss anything?
One answer
- Make sure to use the server workspace
- As mentioned in the workshop, use the Java version that is shipped with the server
- Try using a compatible version of Eclipse, before you become adventurous
Also
- Use short paths - Windows is still not really capable of handling longer paths that you get with the SDK
- Avoid spaces in paths, they should not b a problem, but I have seen issues more often than not
