JVM requirements incompatible error

I have following Java installed:

Java 32 bit

Java 32 bit

Java 64 bit

enter image description here

I have eclipse-standard-kepler-SR2-win32-x86_64 installed in my Windows 7 64 bit pointing to jdk1.8.0_05.

When trying to install IBM software packages (IBM Rational Team Concert Client) using IBM Installation Manager, it gives below error:

The JVM requirements of the package are incompatible with the JVM java version "1.8.0_05" used by the existing Eclipse IDE

This is my eclipse.ini:

-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20130327-1440.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_64_1.1.200.v20140116-2212
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.standard.product
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256M
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_05\bin
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m

What thing that I have misinstalled?

The RTC Eclipse client requirement page mentions Eclipse 3.6.x and 4.2.x (Juno) as compatible Eclipse clients.
Kepler (Eclipse 4.3.x) will be for RTC 5.x only.

(Note: accessing the jazz.net wiki requires a jazz.net account: you have to create one, it is free)

That being said, with the latest RTC 4.x, you can try the process described in this thread which could work even for Juno (4.3):

  • Download an Eclipse release from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/juno/sr2
  • Extract the Eclipse release to c:\tools\eclipse
  • Extend Eclipse by adding a remote update site with the RTC p2repo from ...\RTC\4.x\RTC-Client-p2Repo-4.x.zip
  • When Eclipse has restarted shift to the Jazz Admin perspective

The RTC-Client-p2Repo-4.x.zip file is available on the RTC "all downloads" page, like for instance:

https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/releases/4.0.6?p=allDownloads

The installation doesn't matter as much as your Environment Path location for Java Compiler.

Try doing a Clean install and stick to the 32 bit installations. I have had issues with 64bit JDK installations.
