RTC Client 3.0.1.1 (64bit) + Eclipse 3.6
Hi.
I have dowloaded the updated 3.0.1.1 RTC Client (Client for Eclipse IDE) and i tried intalling it as a 64-bit installation. However i get the following error on the IBM Installation Manager Install Packages window:
"The 32-bit Rational Team Concert - Client for Eclipse IDE packages cannot be installed in a 64-bit package group"
This is the only article I found:
https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21502535
But it does not lead to a solution, as I am using the latest repository source (3.0.1.1)
In addition I understand that RTC can now support Eclipse 3.6. On the release note it is slightly confusing on how you would go about installing this. It appears that you need to also install the client extensions along with the rtc client. I did this as part of a 32bit install but the end client is still using eclipse 3.5? What am I doing wrong?

Ciao Raimondo:
Well, the page http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27019498#RTC is correct. The usual "RTC Eclipse client 3.0.x" does not support to integrate with RAD 8.0.x because of the different Eclipse levels required/included by these offerings.
But take a closer look at my response to Boris please.
In few words: The "RTC Eclipse Client 3.0.1.1" is a stand-alone package while the "RTC Extension Client 3.0.1.1" is a different offering that requires to be installed in the same package group with another Rational product.
The second one does support to be installed into RAD 8.0.x. This was the solution that we provided in 3.0.x for scenarios like yours.
Is this a different path? Yes, you need to follow the instructions in answer 1:
https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/releases/3.0.1.1?p=releaseNotes, search for the "Client for Eclipse 3.6 based Rational Software Development Products" section.
Let me know if you have doubts.

Hello Boris Kivshar:
I think you are using the wrong offering, sorry for the confusion, a quick explanation:

-The
I will try to give an answer to your scenarios:
1) It looks like you are trying to install over RAD in 64 bits mode. Please follow the instructions here https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/releases/3.0.1.1?p=releaseNotes in the "Client for Eclipse 3.6 based Rational Software Development Products" section.
2) The RTC Eclipse Client 3.0.x does support to install over a plain Existing Eclipse 3.6. You may want to follow this guide https://jazz.net/library/article/708 in order to complete the install.
Keep in mind that install into RAD in a 64 bits mode (1) and install into an Existing Eclipse 3.6 (2) are different scenarios and you will not be able to install RTC into RAD using the method to install into a clean Eclipse environment.
Hope this information helps, reply my post if they did not help.
Regards.
