I'm trying to assign ibm was 8.5 to eclipse 2020-06,
the profile configuration screen immediately shows a warning "The profile name must match one of the WebSphere Application Server traditional profile names defined on the WebSphere Application Server" and the "profile name" field is empty.

clicking on "configure profiles" takes you to a new screen and I receive a new warning "The server is installed in a directory that you do not have write permission on and therefore Profile management is disabled.".

I've enabled WAS installation folder to read and write permission, restarted eclipse but nothing changesenter image description here

Running Eclipse with Admin rights and removing the read-only tick for the AppServXX folder/WAS folder couldn't help me... cause I copied the WAS server from another PC :). So for those of you who want to move / migrate your development environment:

I did a search inside the copied WAS, Eclipse and the project's workspace folder for their old paths (with Total Commander, feed the results into a list) and dragged all the files (except the log ones) into my editor (NotePad++) and did a replace in all open documents for the new paths. It's a bit lucrative, but it took only 10 minutes for me and afterwards the WAS server in Eclipse showed the correct profile and it also did start up well.

First check whether you have admin rights or not if your using User/Guest profile, by creating any new folder in C drive where IBM WAS is installed.

If you have Admin rights, than right click on RAD run as administrator. It should work fine.

If Profile doesnt show up in drop down, Configure new profile and try checking that way.

If you dont have Admin rights better install RAD in any local drive other than C

So that's your problem. In order to have a usable profile in WAS, your user must have write permissions. See this link from WAS ND infocenter, it applies to WAS standalone too.

http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSAW57_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.installation.nd.doc/ae/tpro_manage_nonroot.html

If you cannot change the write permissions to this profile, you'll need to create your own. For this, you can either use WAS Profile Management Tool, WAS CLI or you can create your profile using the Configure profiles... link in the WAS server creation wizard you posted. I'd use the RAD way because RAD validates, within the IDE, the proper permissions that you need to create and use the profile within RAD.
