Hello,

CLM 4.0.0.0 is used on Windows 7 X64.

After step 1.2 (setup of dev env), I got the following 2 errors. I am not sure about the second error whether I can ignore it or need to fix it (how?)

Error 1: An RSS feed "https://jazz.net/pub/community/events/feed.rss?externalize=true" is malformed.  News from this site is temporarily unavailable.

Frank,

I just looked at the workshop and after 1.2 the server is not even set up yet. The initial setup of the server is done in 1.3. What am I missing?

Hi Ralph,

The errors showed up on RTC client workspace. You are correct that the server is not setup yet but I like to check if these two errors can be ignored at this step.

Ah, OK, thanks for the clarification. I often see several disturbing errors in the Eclipse clients. I typically ignore them, go on and keep my fingers crossed. I am not sure about the particular error you see, but so far they hove not stopped me from continuing. I would suggest you do the same. 


Please be very careful and exactly follow the instructions. Most errors I have seen so far are from missing an Instruction step.
