Installing RTC 2.0 in an existing eclipse (RAD 7.5.5)


Cristobal Sandoval (61) | asked Jan 28 '10, 11:34 a.m.
Hello
I'm trying to install RTC 2.0 in an existing (and clean installation) of RAD 7.5.5.

RTC 1.0 is not installed, i disable that option while installing RAD.

Everything goes well until in the installation manager, while selecting the path of the eclipse application to extend i got the error :

"There is a package installed in C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP. Eclipse's IDE should not be the same as the installation folder of an existing package"

:(

what am i doing wrong or what can i do to fix this problem?

thanks in advance
Greetings

You don't want to install into an existing Eclipse. (That refers to
installing something into an Eclipse instance that was not installed
with the Installation Manager.) Instead you want to install into an
existing package group. When asked for your package group (a.k.a.
installation directory) you should be able to specify the same location
where RAD is installed.
