help: RTC (and Rational software architect) doesnt start ?!
Hello,
I just did a fresh install of ubuntu 9.10.
I installed the eclipse from the ubuntu package manager
(as that one doesnt have the gtk issues like "buttons not
working - compared to an: get eclipse from eclipse.org and
install manually).
Then I got RTC 2.0.0.2 and RSA 7.5.4 and installed both
using the IBM installer thing ... and told both to use
their own eclipse version.
When I try to start them, I see the same fail:
!MESSAGE Exception launching the Eclipse Platform:
!STACK
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter
at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:497)

at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.run(Main.java:1236)
at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.main(Main.java:1212)
BTW: here is how try to start rtc:
(the first line to fix the buttom problem; the second line taken
from the application menu entry for rtc)
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1
/opt/IBM/TeamConcert/eclipse -product com.ibm.team.concert.product
anyone any idea?
....
I also tried to go the other way and to download the p2 archive
and to include RTC 2.0.0.2 into the "ubuntu eclipse" ... but that
a) seemed to work (no error messages) ... but I couldnt see
anything in the project explorer for jazz
b) broke all my SVN / CVS connections for my other projects
So I guess this aint a good idea.

I don't know anything about the Eclipse that is specifically packaged
for Ubuntu but I don't see why the p2 archive of RTC 2.0.0.2 would have
any problems with it. I don't use Ubuuntu 9.10 myself (I stuck with 9.04
because of the known issue with GTK) but I do know someone who does and
they go it to work by installing the latest 3.6 milestone of Eclipse,
EMF, GEF and Datatools and then installed the Jazz specific plug-ins.
The wiki page found at
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/InstallRTC20IntoEclipse35 offers a
couple of ways to install Jazz into 3.5 and beyond.
As for RSA, you would need to seek advice from one of their forums as to
whether it is possible to get this working on Ubuntu 9.10.

Final outcome:
* I found someone at rational wlling to log into my RSA problem.
Did a "manual" remove of all installed stuff ... installed again; now it is working fine. Strange.
* I downloaded Eclipse 3.6 Helios ... and installed RTC 2.0.0.2 into that.
Works fine too. (and very simple, kewl solution)

I got the ClassNotFound exception on a 64-bit windows 2008 server too. Here is what happened on that machine. For the file \jazz\client\eclipse\configuration\config.ini, these lines were set to absolute path instead of the original relative path for an unknown reason.
osgi.framework=file\://SCUATPTPDPT02VM03.full.domain.com/RTC-Client/jazz/client/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.4.3.R34x_v20081215-1030.jar
osgi.bundles=
org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator.configUrl=file\:\\\\SCUATPDPT02VM03.full.domain.com\\RTC-Client\\jazz\\client\\eclipse\\configuration\\org.eclipse.equinix.simpleconfigurator\\bundles.info
Change the absolute path back to the relative path and give osgi.bundles the reference path, it works again. Hope I could find what caused the modification on config.ini.
