If you are thinking of using the IA99 Support pack with the V6.1.0.3 toolkit then you may run into ptoblems.

If you install the Toolkit to say 6.1.0.3-20081119_1245 and then install the toolkit all the built in nodes disappear from the toolkit and you get zillions of errors. The only way forward here is to delete ALL of the tookit and start again.

If however, you do the following

1) Install 6.1.0.0
2) Install IA99
3) Install 6102 + 610203 (giving you 6.1.0.3-2008...)

Then you can see the nodes and add them to your flows.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions.

Well, of course IA99 doesn't claim to work in 6.1 at all. "This SupportPac supplies two WBI Message Broker V5/WebSphere Message Broker V6 plug-in nodes. " and " Software version: 5.0, 6.0 "

I'll point Arjan at this thread and see if he has any comments.

It's likely that your original installation process did something odd with Eclipse dependency paths, and caused portions of your Toolkit to think that the Eclipse version was equivalent to v6 (3.0.x) rather than the 3.1.x that it requires for 6.1.

And I doubt a full uninstall was really necessary.

Might have been easier to just write a JCN that used the Java unzip/zip functions (even as horribly low level as they are).

I did email Arjan about the problem. His reply indicated that the toolkit bits needed rebuilding.

When I did the original install where it tails(did this twice), the resultying toolkit environment works fine and the flows in my workspace display correctly and can be edited.
I agree that something is awry with the internal stuff in the toolkit. Not being a wizard in this, I felt a complete uninstall/reinstall was the only way forward.
