Re: [WDSCI-L] RDi Missing Plug-Ins, Help-Install, Marketplace - all gone

Steve,

Okay, so I went into the following directory: C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP.
Then I executed: eclipse.exe -clean

That is what I see on my RDi shortcut on my desktop as what executes.

The result is the splash logo flashing on and off, over and over, and

the

only way to stop it was to do a reboot.

I am thinking this is not the result we were hoping to achieve, correct?

Best for me to do a complete uninstall of RDi and then start again?

Thanks,
Steve

Sorry to reply so late, try the following for starting up.

{drive and folder path}\eclipse.exe -product
com.ibm.rational.developer.ibmi.product.ide -clean

I believe the -product flag will help with your startup.
