Re: parser errors after installing latest rational update

Violaine's first suggestion didn't work but the second one - to delete the
contents of the configuration directory - did.  The parsers are working.

That post was in response to a dbu plugin so I wasn't sure if it applied to
ibm's own updates.  Apparently it does.

It took near 20 minutes to restart wdsc after clearing that folder.

Thanks,
Phil

I've had this before after an install.  My preventative solution so far has
been to not use the auto-update.  It seems like if I update too many times
I start getting this error.  For me, the update was some SVN product I
don't even use.  Usually I end up doing a full uninstall and re-install to
correct it.  During the last uninstall and manual cleanup, I noticed a
directory where old versions of installations were being stored, and the
path had gotten so long that even Windows couldn't reference or delete the
directory.  My guess is that during an update, WDSC stores entire directory
paths under some kind of archive directory.  Perhaps as this archive grows,
it exceeds Window's ability to handle it and then WDSC starts blowing up.
This is separate from the Rational Product Updater I think, because that
product has a way to cleanup the archive.

Only a theory.  I don't recall the long path name of the "corrupt"
directory structure, but it began with "C:\Program
Files\IBM\Rational\SDP\6.0"

             Please respond to
                 Websphere

I was prompted by Updater that there was an update, so I elected to install
it.  Now, I get parser errors:

"Uncaught exception in class
"com.ibm.etools.iseries.editor.ISeriesEditorRPGILEParser". Document parser
was disabled"

I've restarted wdsc, and when that didn't work, I rebooted my laptop.  No
luck.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Phil
