Don (and all others), I finally made it!! :-)) We found out, after some investigations, that the reason why it didn't work was due to a limitation in the anti-virus file scanner settings. There is a setting for number of files that is allowed to have in ONE .zip file (also applies to .jar files), the setting we had was 10 000 files! com.ibm.etools.iseries.toolbox_5.1.2.4.jar obviously exceeds that limit in its contents!! (This also applies to one of the .jar files in interim fix 004) When our network guys increased the number of allowed file to the maximum of what the scanner product allows, the download was able to complete!! The limit of 10 000 is not set due to any scientific evaluations but rather just a rough estimate, apparently we have to re-evaluate that figure. The reason for the limit is not related to the risk of virus infection, but rather from a network traffic load point of view. So Don, we have a question to you and your development team: How many files should we allow (by default) to make sure that we don't run in to these kinds of issues again? I understand that it might be difficult to set a limit that holds under all circumstances, but maybe you at IBM has some kind of policy for when an update gets too big for Update manager and results in a CD/DVD installation release instead. Any input that could help us avoid these kinds of issues are appreciated! And Don, thank you very much for your help so far! /Frank Don Yantzi <yantzi@xxxxxxxxx m> To Sent by: Websphere Development Studio Client wdsci-l-bounces+f for iSeries <wdsci-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> rank.broome=ibs.n cc et@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject Re: [WDSCI-L] 5.1.2.4 error when 2005-01-11 18:01 installing.....again ....

Just copy and paste the link below into the URL field. I tried this and was able to open it fine after it downloaded. The file should be 18.6 MB. Do you have any new proxy servers installed at your office?

Hi all, I still am in great confusion regarding my update problems....! When updating to version 5.1.2.4, I get the following message: Unable to complete action for feature "WebSphere Development Studio Client for iSeries" due to errors. The File "C:\DOCUME~1\$userName$\LOCALS~1\Temp\eclipse\.update\1105362639716\1105362639808\eclipse22851.tmp" is not a valid JAR file.

I have been checking the other .tmp files in the directory and they can be opened by winzip, but not this one, it says: "Unexpected end of archive"! I would be VERY grateful if I could get some information from SOMEBODY regarding this issue! If I am raising issue in the wrong forum, please let me know where I should report it to get it resolved!!! /Frank PS. I have been running several updates during the last year when I have been using WDSc ( which I am VERY happy with using) and they have been installed smoothly!!-- This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l. -- This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l. -- This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l. -- This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l. -- This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l.
