Thanks...
But, I have gotten the "Not Responding" on EVERY SINGLE release of RDI... <Puzzled-Look>
I just finally got feedup, and decided to report it again. Now, I am using a test patch. But, my co-worker is using 9.0.1., when she gets the "Not Responding".
It takes a long time to download a new version, unzip, and install it. And then get the new license jar, and then install it. I usually do that at home AFTER Hours, because I want to stay current. I foolish think thing that work in a previous release, won't get broken in a new release! What foolish notion for a person to have!
I keep trying to figure out how RDI "saves me time", when I have to spend time killing and restarting it. And then re-typing code...
I guess I am "Negative", because I am honest. <Puzzled-Look>
My SEU co-worker laugh loudly at me, saying "We have never lose code with SEU, it just works". It seems it more trouble than it worth.
What can I say to that?
Please make RDI Stable. I guess I expect too much. But, it not only my PC, several co-workers have the same issue. Luckily, I normally only lose 5-minutes of work. Unlike my co-worker, Bob, who has LOST HOURS of work using RDI. Not just this version, but other versions.
I pulled the ".log" files, nothing gets written to them when it gets the "Not Responding". I am clueless how to track/debug this problem.
I am going back to my hourly restart of RDI, which seems to prevent the "Not Responding". Since apparently, there is no way to reliable re-create the locks ups. And I just need to create a new workspace every month. I guess that is what I have to learn to accept!
I just want it to work! Consistently!

One time I had a really hard to pin down issue in RDi after I updated, maybe to v9, and I found that it went away when I removed my CMS plug-in, because that plug-in hadn't been updated to work with 9 yet. You might make sure you're not dealing with an errant plug-in not patched for 9.5, since you're issues started with 9.5.

Are you running any plug-ins, such as change management interfaces?

I got approximately EIGHT "Not Responding" yesterday, and opened a PMR# #
54653,442,000 - RDI 9.5 has continual Milky-White-Screen-of-Death (Not
Responding)
And while I was talking to IBM support last night. Our other developer who works remotely, approx. 5-hour drive sent me this plea:
************** SNIPPET ****************
Are you having any issues with RDI when debugging?
Since last Thursday, I keep getting (Not Responding) when I try to debug....
I have to end it thru task manager.... Then reload... then debug again...
Sniff sniff......
************** SNIPPET ****************
IBM Support *suggested* that I create a new workspace, and to turn off Update outline view...
PS. Sadly, there is NO WAY to DUPLICATE this. So I have to manually kill RDI and JAVAW.EXE in task manager, before restarting...
I was able to duplicate the Error 3-times on my PC, but the IBM Tech did not get the "Not Responding"...
And of course, I also lose my code changes.
Oh well, new workspace is working for now. This is the 3rd workspace I have created, since installing RDI 9.5 <sigh>
I guess the policy should be to create a new workspace, when you get the "Not Responding"... <frown>

Check the Progress view to see if there is something running that prevents you from using RDi at a given moment. I have had numerous occasions where things stop working because it is running "Initializing Projects", sometimes for several minutes (and other times it only takes several seconds). If you don't see anything, try this: In the drop down on the Progress view, select Preferences, and check the "Show sleeping and system operations". This might give you some more insight into what is causing RDi to be non-responsive, for example, a process is running that is preventing other processes from running. Not a guarantee it will help in your situation, but as everyone's install of RDi will be different, it might be the key to understanding what is happening.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] RDi 9.5 "not responding"
Hi,
My colleague and I are getting an unresponsive RDi (9.5) at least twice a day, and we need to kill it to start again. I've looked in the workspace .log file, but there are no error messages showing.
It usually happens after selecting an item in a menu, but it doesn't matter which menu or which item. My most recent event was caused by right-clicking my connection and clicking the export option, and my colleagues most recent event happened after clicking the compile menu and selecting one of the compile options.
I'm guessing it is more an eclipse problem than RDi because the menus are not always related to RDi functionality. How can I find out what was causing the unresponsive behaviour? (The error can not be reproduced at
will.)
-Paul.
