  • Perhaps it would help if you posted info about version and your environment information. – Magnilex Mar 19 '13 at 07:10
  • @Magnus: RAD version: 7.5; Websphere application server: 6.1; Windows 7 OS; – Savita Mar 19 '13 at 10:11
  • I had similar issue with WAS 7 on Windows 7, seems to be the installation path was too long, moved to c:/WAS solved the error. Also installation manager shows a warning on Windows 7 when installing WAS in my installation. – icrovett Mar 19 '13 at 15:04

Thanks for the help.

In my case, I did following configuration which solved the issue and server started.

Double click on the server (in the servers tab). In Server connection types and administrative ports select Automatically determine connection settings and save the changes.

Your workspace folder/name could be the issue.

the WAS installation itself. When moved it to C:\was8 everything started to work properly. The default puts it into c:\Program Files... and that was hanging at 23%

a. Please use websphere jre to replace sun hotspot vm to launch the eclipse, like below setting in the eclipse.ini

-vm
D:/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/java/bin/javaw.exe

b. Please make sure there is not a specail character (like 23%) in the websphere path or eclipse workpsace.

    I faced the same problem starting the server in eclipse neon. How can I use WebSphere 8.5.5 JRE6 for eclipse neon, which only supports JRE8 or higher? What else could I do? – bobbel Aug 04 '16 at 12:12

Copy the jar com.ibm.ws.orb_8.5.0.jar from C:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\runtimes to C:\development\endorsed and in eclipse.ini add this just JVM param (under -vmargs) -Djava.endorsed.dirs=C:\development\endorsed
