Compatibility issues between Eclipse 4.22/ 4.23 and EWM 7.0.2
I've seen this following issues when install EWM 702 on top of Eclipse 4.22 and 4.23:
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: com.ibm.team.filesystem.ide.ui [748]

This issues can be seen after install and going to the Team Artifacts view - some links like connecting to a repository workspace are missing and triggers those wiring errors. It seems to have worked up to Eclipse 4.21, but something has changed with Eclipse since then to cause it to no longer work. I understand that EWM doesn't claim support past 4.16, but I was still wondering if someone could look into the issue. |

The system requirements are: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/ELMSystemRequirements702
Go to All Platforms. Eclipse support is documented in the Prerequisites. The link I get does not work here.
Supported versions are 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, and now the ones with future fixpacks 4.7, 4.8, 4.11, 4.14, 4.16
There is no support for the versions you list, as far as I can tell.
Also note the Java SDK currently only Java 8 is supported at the moment.

FORUM ADMINISTRATOR / FORUM MODERATOR / JAZZ DEVELOPER I use Eclipse 2021-06 (4.20) with an EWM 7.0.2 p2 plugin for my everyday Jazz development. That version requires Java 11 to run. I tried Eclipse 2021-12, but there was a problem with the EWM 7.0.2 plugin with that Eclipse, for which a defect was submitted. However, as Ralph mentions, Eclipse versions later than 4.16 are currently not officially supported.

Interestingly enough, starting with Eclipse 4.21, checking for updates and moving it up to 4.23, then install EWM 7.0.2 works. |

Interestingly enough, Eclipse 4.23 does include a lower version of javax.servlet compared to 4.21 - javax.servlet_3.0.0.v201112011016.jar vs javax.servlet_3.1.0.v201410161800.jar
Eclipse 4.21, javax.servlet_3.1.0.v201410161800
Eclipse 4.23, javax.servlet_3.0.0.v201112011016
Do you use the P2 install?
That's correct. It was a P2 install on top of Eclipse Eclipse IDE for RCP and RAP Developers 4.22/ 4.23
