Re: Installing WAS7.0 AST on existing eclipse

WAS7.0 AST requires an IBM JRE for the WAS tools (and all of the Rational
offerings are the same). Where can you get an IBM JRE? Do a default
install and copy the JRE folder to your existing Eclipse. Then remove the
default AST install and install into your existing eclipse.

Stupid, but I have not found where IBM offers a download of an IBM JRE or
JDK for Windows. (Linux yes, Windows no).

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Installing WAS7.0 AST on existing eclipse

I'm runing into the problem below when trying to install the WAS7.0 AST onto

an existing eclipse on my PC.

The installation manager shows two features check boxes:
1) Java EE Assembly and Deploy
2) Tools for Websphere Application Server version 7.0.

The second check box, Tools for Websphere Application Server version 7.0, is

gray out. When I try to check on it I get this error message "This feature
is not supported with the current JRE used in the existing eclipse."

The existing eclipse is using Sun JRE1.6. Does anyone know what I need to
allow me to select the check box 2?

thanks
