Prepare to Install RAD Fix Pack 6.0.0.1

1. Navigate to C:\temp\rpu , open the policy_6004.xml file in the editor.

2. The content of the file is shown below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<update-policy>

<url-map pattern="com.ibm.orca.product.updater"

url="file:///<.....>/rpu/60/update/site_6004.xml"/>

</update-policy>

3. Change the content of the policy_6004.xml at url =”file:///…...”/> to

url=”file:///c:/temp/rpu/60/update/site_6004.xml”/>

4. Save the file in the same location.

/ Warning: You must be disconnected from the Internet before installing the fix pack. Either remove the network cable from the computer or disable the network connection (as show below). If you do not disconnect from the internet the fix pack will not install properly.

5. Start à Settings à Control Panel à Network and Dial-Up Connections. Right click on your active connection (such as the one identified by Local Area Connection) and select Disable.


6. If IBM Rational Agent Controller is not installed, you can skip this step (it will not be in the list of services if it is not installed).

Start à Settings à Control Panel à Administrative Tools à Services. Right click on IBM Rational Agent Controller. Pick Stop to stop the service. Verify that it no longer says the service is Started in the Status column.

7. Now select Start à Programs à IBM Rational à IBM Rational Application Developer V6.0 Trial à Rational Application Developer.

8. Click OK on the workspace selection dialog. Select Help à Software Updates à IBM Rational Product Updater.

9. The Rational Product Updater screen should be opened. It runs independent of the actual Rational Application Developer tool. Close RAD as it may later interfere with the fix pack installation. Now, you should just have the updater open.

/ Warning: It is very important that you have closed RAD and you have stopped the Agent Controller service before the Fix Pack starts to install. Only Rational Product Updater should be open at this point. If Agent Controller or RAD is running during the fix pack install, the install will fail without warning and RAD will only function partially.

10. In the IBM Rational Product Updater dialog , choose Preferences à Update

Sites option.

11. Click on the Browse button, navigate to C:\temp\rpu directory, and choose

policy_6004.xml file.

Press OK.

12. Click Find Updates.

13. The Rational Product Updater will prompt you that updates are required, and you are prompted to install it before you can continue.

Click OK.

14. The Rational Product Updater installs the update and restarts.
