Re: Rational Updater

Joe, 

I use ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/software/rationalsdp/rwd/60/zips/
for rational product updates and
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/as400/products/ad/wdt400/
for WDSC specific updates.  Look for V6* folders.  I recently downloaded
files from ../v601 for the latest WDSC updates.

Also, download "rwd60_601.zip" (from the ../rationalsdp/rwd/60 folder)
in place of all the "rwd60_interim_[1-4].zip" fixes,
"rwd60_refreshpack601.zip" and "rwd60_6011_post601.zip" since it
incorporates them. 

You MUST update the rational product to "rwd60_601.zip" before updating
to WDSC 6.0.1 (wdsc60_601.zip for standard, wdsca60_601.zip for
advanced).  If you get errors in the message window (top of updater
screen) uncheck all top level product updates that appear until the
message goes away.  

See the HTML install instructions for WDSC 6.0.1 update, it tells you
what to update to and where to get the updates for local installs before
you can upgrade to WDSC 6.0.1. 

HTH

Thanks, Matt

I managed to download the 6.0.1->6.0.1.1 update of RAD and apply it
locally
following the instructions; that worked fine.

Then I tried to apply the RAD 6.0.1.1 interim fix 1 using the standard
Internet procedures, and no luck (An exception occurred during
installation...").  I got this both for the interim fix, and when I
tried to
update WDSC to 6.0.1.

Anybody know where the logs are for this program?  Are their local
downloads
available for these two pieces of the update?
