Hi Mark - please accept my apologies, the developer tooling for tWAS does not support Eclipse 2022-06. The latest supported version of Eclipse for this tooling is 2020-06. Thank you.
Error installing WDT v9 in Eclipse v4.16 (2020-06)
Submitted by Vaneet Lotay on Fri, 2022-07-15 18:06
Hi there,
I'm not able to install WAS Dev Tools v9.x for Eclipse v 2020-06. I tried installing it using Eclipse Marketplace and also by taking the appropriate URL from this page and selecting 'Install New Software', both methods didn't work. In both cases I got the same error:
An error occurred while collecting items to be installed
session context was:(profile=epp.package.jee, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=, action=).
Unable to read repository at (I was not allowed to paste the link).
Read timed out
When checking the health status of WAS Dev Tools v9.x, it has all red 'X's on each version
I assume that's not a good sign? I wanted to try and download the ZIP file to install it manually but I don't see a way to access it for download, can you help please?
Thanks,
Vaneet

Hi Vaneet, thank you for reporting this and I'm sorry to hear about the issues you had installing the Dev Tools. DHE has had some stability issues recently and so I believe that was what was occurring at the time you were trying to install. I have successfully installed the tools on a fresh 2020-06 Eclipse today. Could you please try again and let me know if you have any more issues?

Hello,
After restarting Eclipse, I just tried it again both in Eclipse Marketplace and using the Install New Software option in Eclipse, both resulting in the same error again. It can't access the jar 'com.ibm.websphere.v9.core_1.100.1.v20200826_1754.jar'. I can't paste the full link due to the restrictions in these comments but I'd be happy to privately if you give me a way or if I need to get patched to technical support that's fine too. If there was a way I could install the plugins from a ZIP file like it says in some of these tutorials so it would avoid trying to install the plugin by accessing packages via the web, that would help but I don't know how to access the one for WebSphere dev tools v9. Can you point me to how to download the ZIP file? Or can you help me diagnose the issue with not being able to access that jar file? I would appreciate it immensely as this affects my ability to use Eclipse to do my work.

Hi all,
I'd just like to post that with the help of a coworker we figured out what the issue was. If I use the method which involves the option 'Install New Software' in Eclipse, it needs a URL for the repository basically which I can obtain from this page for my Eclipse version. When I was pasting the URL and going through with the install for WDT v9 it was always ending in that same error that it couldn't find the jar file. I noticed the URL began with 'http', if I tried 'https', it worked fine. I would suggest if possible for you guys to change all the links to 'https' in these marketplace pages as it may avoid further issues from other users, just a suggestion.
Thanks,
Vaneet

Hello Vaneet,
I have done several tests and can't normally see the issue you describe. The only time I did hit was when i disconnected my VPN halfway through the install. That might even be a red herring as for all I know that could have been coincidental. It looks like the site automatically redirects any http traffic to https ... and I have been able to download com.ibm.websphere.v9.core_1.100.1.v20200826_1754.jar using http or https.
Having said that I changed the url to https anyway and retested as as it didn't cause any failures I have left it like that. I'm not sure if that will help with your particular error ... please try it and get back to us.
The fact that your experience that http does not get redirected to https (just on a browser download of the jar in question) concerns me.
Cheers ... Dave
"Eclipse Versions: " list incorrect
Submitted by Cendern Oble on Wed, 2021-09-29 17:50
2021-06 is listed under "Eclipse Versions:" but it's not compatible. The last line of the description "Eclipse version 2020-06 or before" is probably more accurate, but that's pretty old.
The part of the URL that ends up being "install_not_applicable_for_this_version_of_eclipse" should be the version-specific path to resources; lots of people are getting that because it shows up in the Eclipse Marketplace for unsupported Eclipse versions. I find this level of support is pretty normal for IBM's open source contributions.

Yes, WDT for v9 works with Eclipse 2020-06 or prior. Appreciate the feedback. We are working to address the noted issues. Thank you.
(FYI that WDT for v8.5/9 isn't open sourced.)
Cannot install plugin
Submitted by Franziska Arndt on Sun, 2021-08-22 14:51
Plugin claims to be not compatible to Eclipse 2021-06 runnign with OpenJDK 11 (understandable) and Eclipse 2019-06 running with OpenJDK 8 (not understandable).
Re: Cannot install plugin
Submitted by YK Chang on Fri, 2021-10-08 16:24
Hi Franziska. Can you elaborate on the issue you have with Eclipse 2019-06 with Java 8? We will look into it further. Thank you.

Hi YK,
Turned out the company proxy uses an 'improved' malware scanner or a new configuration looking into the downloaded files and finding something suspicious. Our bad.
Thanks a lot for responding

Is there a way to install this on a laptop without internet access, by downloading the repo as a kind of zip archive?
Thx in advance

Java 11 Problems?
Submitted by Michael Feichtegger on Mon, 2020-12-21 06:26
Eclipse 2020-12 needs Java 11 as a minimum version to run on. This seems to cause problems when using theses plugins. For example when creating a new WebSphere 8.5 server I get a popup: "IBM JRE Warning - An attempt was made to use a WebSphere Application Server specific function, which is only supported on JRE 6.0, 7.0 or 8.0.
Re: Java 11 Problems?
Submitted by Steve Freeman on Wed, 2021-01-27 10:28
I have the same issues and I'd rather not have to maintain plugins for two separate installations of Eclipse.
I agree that the WebSphere development plug-ins need to support the newer Eclipse versions and their pre-requisites.

Hot reload is failing on EJB debugging
Submitted by Lakshminarayana Nekkanti on Thu, 2019-02-07 04:20
Hi
I couldn't debug in ejb classes on WAS v9.
Hot reload is failing with small text change. It's specific to WAS v9. I could see in all the versions (Fix pack) of v9. But, not on earlier WAS versions or Websphere Liberty Profile.
Can you provide any workaround ?.
Re: Hot reload is failing on EJB debugging

Hi,
This seems not an issue with WAS developer tools. You may open a PMR against 'WebSphere Application Server v9' instead.
Thanks,

Hi,
I couldn't reproduce the issue and it seems to be more related to the network issue during your install. Check if the update site is up and running and try to install again.
