IBM WebSphere Business Modeler Version 6.0.2.1
Interim fix for compatibility with WebSphere Integration Developer Version
6.0.2.2
===================================================================================
The fix corrects a problem which causes the Business Integration perspective
to disappear when WebSphere Integration Developer is upgraded to Version
6.0.2.2.
Install this interim fix in two stages.
In stage one, install a new set of plug-ins into WebSphere Integration
Developer using Update Manager. It is important that you complete stage one
before beginning stage two.
In stage two, run a batch file that carries out an additional update and
clean-up to the plug-ins that you installed in stage one.
Important: Both stages must be completed in sequence in order for
WebSphere Integration Developer and WebSphere Business Modeler to be updated
correctly.
Stage One - Installing the new plug-ins
To install the plug-ins for the interim fix, complete the following steps:
- Download
the WB-Modeler_6021-WID_6022-IF001A.zip file.
- Double-click the
downloaded WB-Modeler_6021-WID_6022-IF001A.zip file, and extract the files
into a temporary directory. The rest of these instructions assume that you
extracted the files to C:\temp\modelerFix.
- In WebSphere
Business Modeler, click .
A wizard opens.
- Select Search for
new features to install, and click
Next.
- On the Update Sites to Visit page, click
New Local Site. The Browse for Folder
window opens.
- In the Browse for
Folder window, navigate to C:\temp\modelerFix, and click
OK. The Edit Local Site window opens.
- In the Name field, enter a name for the site. For example, you
can enter the name modeler-fix.
- Click OK to return to the wizard. The site that you specified is
included in the Sites to include in search
list.
- Select the site that you just added.
- On the Search Results page, click Select
All to select both the product and the documentation features.
- On the Feature License page, read the license
agreement for the feature that you are installing. To accept the agreement,
click I accept the terms in the license
agreement.
- On the Install Location page, click
Finish. During the installation, you
must confirm that you want to install an unsigned feature.
- When you are asked if you want to restart the
workbench, click Yes.
Stage one of applying this interim fix is now complete.
Stage Two - Running the update batch file.
To run the batch file that completes the update process for this fix:
- Download
the WB-Modeler_6021-WID_6022-IF001B.zip file.
- Double-click the
downloaded WB-Modeler_6021-WID_6022_Fix001B.zip file, and extract the files
into a new folder at the top-level of the WebSphere Integration Developer
directory. Usually this top-level directory is named \602\ in a path such
as C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\ID\602\. In addition to the folder you
are creating, this top-level folder should contain folders with the
following names:
The rest of this task assumes that you extracted the files to
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\ID\602\stage2update.
- Open a command prompt.
- In the command prompt, change your directory to the stage2update
folder.
- Type the following command:
wid_plugins_update.bat Modeler_Install_Location
Where Modeler_Install_Location is the fully qualified location that
you originally installed WebSphere Business Modeler as a set of plug-ins.
For example, if you used the WebSphere Integration Developer Update Manager
to install WebSphere Business Modeler into
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\ID\602\sdpisv then you should use the
command:
wid_plugins_update.bat c:\progra~1\IBM\WebSphere\ID\602\sdpisv
Note: You must write the path names without spaces, so if you have
installed the product in the Program Files directory, you must use
the shortened form of the folder name.
- Restart WebSphere Integration Developer using the -clean option:
- Open a command prompt.
- Change to the directory where WebSphere Integration Developer is
installed. For example, the default installation location is C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\ID\602.
- Run the following command:
wid.exe -clean
WebSphere Integration Developer opens.
- In the Business Integration perspective, click the Window menu
and select Reset Perspective.
The installation of the fix is now complete.
