Getting Setting build path error when trying to change the

I'm getting a 'Setting build path' has encountered a problem. File is read only error when I try to select WebSphere Application Server v6.1 in my Java Build Path in Enterprise Explorer in Rational Application Developer:

enter image description here

Details just says "File is read only." Does anyone know what file it's talking about?

I ran SysInternals Process Explorer filtering for the result "ACCESS DENIED" and I didn't see anything. If I create a read-only text file file and attempt to modify it, it pops up in the list in SysInternals Process Explorer.

Check first if files likely to be changed as a result of your "Java Build Path" selection are checked out.

Typically, if the .classpath is not checkout, your selection would not be able to proceed, and that kind of error message would be seen ("File is read only").

The line change (in .classpath, as seen in this thread) would be from:

 <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jst.server.core.container/com.ibm.ws.ast.st.runtime.runtimeTarget.v61/was.base.v61">

to:

 <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jst.server.core.container/com.ibm.ws.ast.st.runtime.runtimeTarget.v61/WebSphere Application Server v6.1">
