Issue while installing IBM Liberty Developer Tools 21.0.0.9

I'm installing IBM Liberty Developer Tools 21.0.0.9 in my eclipse 2021-03 version.

While installation this error occurs constantly, which might be due to the server issue at the installation site.

Hi Kshiti,

This is indeed usually due to server issues and the files tend to be back in an hour or two.

I've just checked and all of those URLs are resolving properly, so please try your installation again.

Mark Occurrences Broken With Liberty Tools Added

Submitted by Robert Hays on Tue, 2022-12-20 18:47

I have the same issue described by Tiago. Open any java file and I get a persistent error.

An internal error occurred during: "Requesting Java AST from selection".
'boolean com.ibm.icu.text.UTF16.isSurrogate(char)'

If I turn off Mark Occurrences (Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Editor -> Mark Occurrences -> Unselect checkbox) then the error goes away. The same code works fine without Liberty Tool set installed.

On Eclipse 2022-03. JVM that is automatically included is "org.eclipse.justj.openjdk.hotspot.jre.full.win32.x86_64_17.0.2.v20220201-1208" in plugins folder.

Re: Mark Occurrences Broken With Liberty Tools Added

Submitted by Robert Hays on Wed, 2022-12-21 10:30

Fyi, for now, I have followed what has been suggested in other places. I installed 2022-03 eclipse, then installed Liberty tools via marketplace, then did Check for Updates and installed all of those one time. After Eclipse rebooted, Mark Occurrences is working again. Too soon to tell if everything else is working but so far don't see anything broken. Will try to update if I see something else.

Error puglin or IDE STS + IBM Liberty Developer Tools

Submitted by Tiago Pessoa on Sat, 2022-12-17 12:43

Even following all the version recommendations, using both the ide and sts plugin for eclipse 4.23, when I open any .java file in the IDE editor I get the following error:

An internal error occurred during: "Requesting Java AST from selection". java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.ibm.icu.text.UTF16.isSurrogate

Re: Error puglin or IDE STS + IBM Liberty Developer Tools

Submitted by Billy Dawson on Tue, 2022-12-20 09:06

Hi Tiago, I'm sorry to hear you had issues running the latest version of the tools. This looks like it could be a JVM error, may I ask which JVM you are using to run Eclipse within eclipse.ini?

Thank you,

Billy

Re: Re: Error puglin or IDE STS + IBM Liberty Developer Tools

Submitted by Tiago Pessoa on Thu, 2022-12-22 07:34

I'm using the default version "plugins/org.eclipse.justj.openjdk.hotspot.jre.full.win32.x86_64_17.0.2.v20220201-1208/jre/bin". But I discovered that this error has nothing to do with the Liberty Tools plugin, because even before installing it and right after restarting Eclipse a few times, we already faced the error when opening a .java in the IDE's editor.

Re: Unable to install version 22.2

Submitted by Matt Colegate on Mon, 2022-12-12 06:05

I've just tested both installing from Eclipse Marketplace within Eclipse and the Drag To Install button - both with Eclipse 2022-03 for Enterprise (https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/2022-03/r/eclipse-ide...) and had no issues. Can you tell me what version of Eclipse you used? We are aware of problems installing with more recent versions of Eclipse which is why we have not declared support for them.

Re: Re: Re: Unable to install version 22.2

Submitted by Matt Colegate on Tue, 2023-01-17 09:53

Hi,

Sadly it looks like Spring Tools Suite 4 (https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/spring-tools-4-aka-spring-tool-s...) is based on Eclipse versions we don't support yet. This page (https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/spring-tools-3-add-aka-spring-to...) suggests that "the Spring Tools 4.14.1 release for Eclipse 2022-03" would be one that could work.

Thanks for using LDT!

Doesn't work with 2022-09

Submitted by Joel Bartley on Wed, 2022-11-23 10:04

This plugin no longer works with eclipse 2022-09. Are there any plans for a new version that would support this version of eclipse?

Re: Doesn't work with 2022-09

Submitted by Markkwsu Su on Tue, 2022-11-29 08:42

I have the same problem, too. If you download Eclipse 2022-09 then try to install this plugin, Eclipse will tell you this plugin can't be installed due to some dependent plugins is not satisfied.

But if you download Eclipse 2022-03, you can install this plugin successfully. Then upgrade Eclipse to 2022-09, everything works fine.

Only one error keeps showing: "

An error has occurred. See error log for more details.

How to get the offline .zip file for WDT? Thanks.

Download the .zip file of IBM WebSphere Application Server Developer Tools for Eclipse to a directory on your computer. The .zip file is available at WebSphere Application Server Developer Tools Releases.

Locate the entry that matches the Eclipse version that you are using and click on Get it now!.

If there is more than one download, then choose the one that includes the tools for WebSphere Application Server traditional.

I can't find any link for download .zip of WDT.

I think there is no .zip file now. You can consider cloning the update site to local machine, then install it.

AppServer Tools no longer work for Eclipse 2020-06

Submitted by Ralph Harvey on Tue, 2021-07-20 16:07

Prior to 2021-? it was possible to install the tools into Eclipse 2020-06 and get WebSphere Application Server to be recognized; Now, WebSphere Application Server is no longer available for ANY recent release of the tools - not sure if there is a release that would work; is there ANY version of Toolkit available for ANY version of Eclipse that still supports WebSphere Application Server ? What are the instructions for doing so? Unfortunatly, Application Server does not work without IBM JDK 1.8

Re: AppServer Tools no longer work for Eclipse 2020-06

Submitted by Philip Nickoll on Wed, 2021-08-11 13:10

AppServer Tools 20.0.0.09 should work with Eclipse 2020-06 with Websphere Application Server, this should be the version you get if you try to install the AppServer tools via Eclipse marketplace. Since Eclipse moved to Java 11 in 2020-09 you are right in sticking with Eclipse 2020-06.

Have you tried that combo? If so can you show me your installed software list for the AppServer tools (Help -> Install New Software -> What is already installed)

I wonder if somehow the versions of installed software got mixed up, it is safer to start from a clean Eclipse installation if possible.

Need written set of steps to install dependencies

Submitted by Mr Nara on Thu, 2021-07-01 11:12

Dragging the "Install" button/icon and dropping it on the eclipse Workbench makes it easy to install the necessary components, but could we also get a set of written/documented steps what we need to install as the pre-requisites/dependencies, so that if that "Install" icon is gone for whatever reason, we will still know what to do? Thanks.
