problem with websphere application server [message #546161]

I downloaded eclipse-jee-helios-win32.zip and unzipped it.
I would like to add WebSphere Application Server.
The first time I new server, I was asked for configure WebSphere 6.0 Runtime environment, I specified JRE and IBM WebSphere Installation Directory, but got message:
ActivitySession.jar is missing from directory C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\lib. I manually added it(copying it from RAD), then asked for more, Eventually, I added 72 jars(Silly I am).
Then I was able to create the runtime.
Then I was asked to configure the IBM WebSphere v6.0 Server.
I input :
Port: 9080
Server Profile Directory: C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles
Cell: cell1
Node: node1
Server: server1

Then I got server1 created, but when I tried to start it, I got:
The java class is not found: Files.IBM.WebSphere.AppServer.java.jre.lib.ext.ibmorb.jar

The installed JRE I used for WebSphere Runtime is:
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\java, from which I can see ibmorb.jar was there for sure under C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\java\jre\lib\ibmorb.jar

Could anybody tell me if I am doing the right approach? I could not get a step-by-step manual to get eclipse working with websphere applicaiton server. So any help would be greatly appreciated!h

Hi Michael,

Even i am trying hard to configure websphere 6 on eclipse helios.

I was able to resolve the problem that you are facing below with ibmorb.jar by following steps

1.Open the server configuration in eclipse
2.Click on "Open Launch Configurations"
3.Go to the tab, Arguments and under "VM arguments", you would notice -XBoot classpath
4.Remove the -XBootclasspath from here along with the jar references that this variable is referring to
5.Search for ibmorb.jar in you IBM RAD install folder
6. Add this jar file, ibmorb.jar to the Classpath, which is the 3rd tab on the "Open Launch Configurations"

Now restart the server, you will not face the ibmorb.jar error.

Please let me know if you have been able to successfully configure websphere 6 on Eclipse.

Regards
amit
