Re: Rational Developer for i 9.6.0.12 fixpack is now available!

I have been running IM 1.9.1.5 for some time now on Mac and the mac has applied various updates and is now at 12.5.1 and everything still works.

I have had no luck with IM 1.9.2.x so if you have let IM update, well then I would uninstall and do a User install of IM 1.9.1.5.

Mike

Wish I could say the same.

I recently updated to Mac Monterey and RDi continued to work (with the occasional flakiness it has exhibited on Mac for a while).

Today I tried to update and discovered a major problem. IM just comes up with a blank screen. It won't do a dang thing. If I ask it to show updates (from the menu bar) it tries to build the GUI but doesn't go anywhere. No meaningful error message just a java null pointer exception.

Anyone else experienced anything like this.

It would appear that the repository is back online if you are waiting to update to 9.6.0.12 that way!

All the best, Mike

The fixpack is now available. Please see the Fix List for details:
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/fix-list-rational-developer-i

Note: August 23, 2022 - Normally, clicking 'Update' in Installation Manager accesses the IBM update repository which is currently unavailable. See Status of IBM Installation Manager Product and Service Repositories<https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/status-ibm-installation-manager-product-and-service-repositories> at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/status-ibm-installation-manager-product-and-service-repositories to see when this is resolved. You can register for notifications.

Either wait for the IBM update repository to be available or download the fixpack zip file from Fix Central, unzip the zip to a folder, and then register the folder as a repository in Installation Manager (http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSAE4W_9.6.0/com.ibm.etools.iseries.install.doc/topics/t_specifying_repository_locations.html). Once it is registered, you can click 'Update' and the fixpack will be applied. After it is applied, remember to deregister the fixpack folder repository.
