Re: RDi Data Source Explorer issue -- WDSCI-L

Hmmm, that _should_ be OK I would think.

Can you try extracting RDI 9.8 fresh from the .zip again? You could just Extract All to C:\RDi_9.8\
Then run the “C:\RDi_9.8\Rational Developer for i\RDi.exe”
Go to Help > Install New Software
UN-check the setting “Contact all update sites …”
Select the RDI 9.8 update site in the Work With dropdown.
Step through the wizard to apply 9.8.0.1
Restart RDI to finalize the update
Then try adding the https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2022-03<https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2022-03%E2%80%9D> repository and installing the data tools

The failing “repository” URLs that you show seem to be the pages for the datatools project or something.

The RDi.exe is currently in "C:\RDi_9.8\windows\IBM Rational Developer for
i\RDi.exe".
It has been over a month so my memory may be wrong. I downloaded the .zip
into the "Downloads" folder. If I recall correctly, I extracted the .zip
to "C:\RDi_9.8".
The workspace is here
"C:\Users\kcrawford\Documents\workspace\wrkspcV98_PgmProduction".

I am wondering if it is a JAVA thing, something missing. I did play with
my ACS JAVA about that time, trying to get the IBM Java only in the ACS
folders.

Hi Kerwin,

9.8.0.0 does not include Eclipse Data tools Platform.

You can opt to install it from:
https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.datatools

You likely need 1.14.300 version, since RDi 9800 is built upon Eclise

4.23.

I installed RDI 9.8.0.0 a while ago. I went to the 'Data Source Explorer'
view for the first time in 9.8. My 9.6 version worked fine. Any

thoughts

on what I am missing? I get this error:
