Re: Local Help disappeared

It is interesting that the "Test Connection" gives a successful result for
both http and https URLs.

I also found it interesting that the IBM i link was enabled, but both the
IBM Data Studio and IBM Rational Developer for i links were both disabled.
I have never seen this dialog before, so I never explicitly disabled those
links.

The remote help in RDi (help within the IDE accessed remotely) uses the IBM
Knowledge Center service. Recently,
Knowledge Center switched all access to the https protocol. RDi preferences
were set with the http protocol. If you are using remote help, your help
may have stopped working.

To change to using the https protocol, follow these steps:
In RDi, click Window > Preferences > Help > Content
Choose a remote help URL
Click Edit
Change http to https
Click OK
Repeat for any other IBM remote help URLs.
