Re: Troubles with brand new install of RDi-SOA 7.5

I uninstalled everything, re-installed to the base distribution levels
(no updates), and was then able to complete the exercise. I have not
decided whether I want to risk applying updates again...

Installed Packages and Fixes
IBM(r) Rational(r) Developer for i 7.5
IBM(r) Rational(r) Business Developer 7.5.1
IBM(r) Rational(r) HATS 7.5.0
IBM(r) WebSphere(r) Application Server Version 6.1 Test Environment
6.1.0.19

For what it's worth, it seems the error occurred when creating the EGL
project, during the installation of facets to the project. In the
environment that failed, none of the facets (of which " Dynamic Web
Module 2.4" is the first to load) were installed. After reverting to
base levels, these facets were correctly installed when creating the
project.

I tried to create an EGL Web Project on another user's installation that
had the fixes applied (I did his install like I did my own), and I saw
the same problem on his. Facets were not installed during project
creation....

Subject: [EGL-i] Troubles with brand new install of RDi-SOA 7.5

I have been waiting for the media for Rdi-SOA for some time now, so I
could start learning EGL in the newest release of RBD. I finally
received media, built a repository of all components, and installed the
product. Before I launched, I installed updates, so that my product
includes:

Installed Packages and Fixes
IBM(r) Rational(r) Developer for i 7.5.0.2
IBM(r) Rational(r) Business Developer 7.5.1
IBM(r) Rational(r) HATS 7.5.0
IBM(r) WebSphere(r) Application Server Version 6.1 Test Environment
6.1.0.21

I launched RDi, creating a new workspace. Everything seems ok....

Welcome page offers a link to a cheat-sheet called "Create an EGL Hello
World Web Application"

On the "New EGL Project" dialog, I enter a project name, and then select
Web Project. Next...
Select the server runtime (WAS 6.1), enable "Create new build
descriptor". Finish...
A progress bar displays, then an error dialog pops: Failed while
installing Dynamic Web Module 2.4
A second dialog pops up immediately, requesting to run the Rational
Desktop Migration.
If I run the migration wizard, I eventually get to a screen that reports
an undefined server runtime. The new server runtime dropdown lists the
environment that I had originally targeted, so I select it again... Get
a bunch of warnings in the Migration Results panel, then a dialog saying
validation completed with some errors. Reviewing the "Problems" view, I
see this message: "This project needs to migrate WTP metadata"
The question for me is why the project migration wizard would run on a
brand new never-used-before workspace.

Any clues how to get this thing up and running?
