Re: RDi will not prompt to load workspace

["Tyler, Matt" <matt.tyler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As far as I know we do not have the Webfacing feature with our version
of RDi.  I thought that came with the RDi-SOA version.  

As far as errors, the default workspace in C:\Documents and
settings\pgmt\IBM\rationalsdp\.metadata\.log the only thing that shows
are references to key binding conflicts.  

In my normal workspace for today, all that is there are references to
the same key binding conflicts and Aldon's plugin that failed to connect
because of an expired password on a system.  

Oh well I guess when I get more time, I will remove and then re-install
RDi to see if I can get it to work properly. 

Thanks, Matt

Hi Matt,

I can appreciate that you would not want to do the -clean thing all the 
time ;-)

My suggestion then would be to look in the .log file and find out what
is 
causing a problem at start-up time.  In my case it was a WebFacing
project 
starting up and trying to get  communications started before some other 
dependencies were ready - with a NPE as a result.   I believe that there

may be a fix in the works for that problem but I don't know of a
delivery 
release offhand.

Mike
