Install clearcase for eclipse 3.5.2 on linux - eclipse

I want to install the plugin clear case for eclipse 3.5.2 on linux and I could not find http url of the plugin package to add it in the "Install New Software"
I download the package as a zip format from IBM but I could not succeed to install it.
Could you please provide me URL for this package

The only information for that plugin are:
IBM Rational ClearCase plug-ins
Rational ClearCase SCM Adapter (For Eclipse), Version 7.0.0.2
Rational ClearCase SCM Adapter (For Eclipse), Version 7.6.0.0
The last link is for you, and contain the zip to download.
See "Problems with clear case plugin eclipse" for installing that zip.
You can also try the update site:
http://www3.software.ibm.com/ibmdl/pub/software/rationalsdp/clearcase/60/update/windows/
The OP Mohamed KALLEL adds:
I install it, but when run connect to Rational ClearCase, I get a popup with the message:
You do not have a license to run ClearCase
First, check if there is no obvious license issue, as described in this technote, using clearlicense (or if there isn't any ACL right or license serer IP address issue).
Check also your exact version of ClearCase. If this is ClearCase LT, it might not be supported through an Eclipse plugin. If this is CCRC (ClearCase Remote Control), then this isn't the right plugin.

Eclipse Plugin for ClearCase

Installed on my Windows 7 (32-bit) computer is ClearCase Explorer 8.0.1.9 and Eclipse Java IDE 4.7.2 (Oxygen) and JDK 1.8.0_161.
I am looking for suitable plugin so that I can perform check-out / check-in to ClearCase from Eclipse workbench.
I found a plugin on sourceforge but I would prefer something from IBM.
Also I cannot use the newer product ClearTeam Explorer, I must use ClearCase Explorer.
Try using cleartool command line options to checkout or checkin.
it is very simple and got clean response.
Do integrate batch commands with Eclipse
Check this related Question How to run a batch script (.bat file) from eclipse
IBM Help page for Clear case commands
Cleartool subcommands for base ClearCase and UCM
You'll need to update your clearcase client to 9.0.0.6/9.0.1.2 or later to use the cte plugins that support that release of eclipse. 8.0.1.x tops out at 4.6.
The plugin mentioned by #Elyahu is last updated in 2013, and may not work with a current eclipse/jvm release.
As I remarked, in any case Eclipse is not an IBM tool, so you can find any suitable plugin you find on the net.
That one is an IBM one, but for lower ClearCase versions, but it might be OK, since its only a plugin, and you only need a check-out <-> check-in ability

Enjoy,

Since you have mentioned you have 'ClearCase Explorer 8.0.1.9 ', I assume that you have installed it in your computer/VM/asset.
During installation of Clearcase, there is option you can select to install 'CTEUpdateSite'. If you enable that option, you will see /CTEUpdateSite directory. You can configure it in your eclipse Help--> Install Software, Add a 'Local' location so that those plugins will get installed. Post Installation you will able to do all ClearCase operations from Eclipse IDE itself.

clearteam explorer as a plugin to eclipse

I am trying to configure Clearteam explorer in eclipse 3.5.
I downloaded Eclipse 3.5
installed GEF plugin.
Installed clearcase plugin from sourceforge.
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/eclipse-ccase/index.php?title=Installation
Installed clearcase 8.0 in machine and made my machine act as a registry server. Clearcase 8 is included with Clearteam explorer (CCRC).
here is the process for installing CTE for eclipse
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/cchelp/v8r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.rational.clearcase.ccrc.help.doc/topics/t_ccrc_eclipse.htm
I gave my machine //hostname/ccrc/update as given in the doc, but it isnt working.
There is also another way to give the path as - file:/c:/my repository path... even this way its not working. it is showing an error as repository not fount at ...file:/c:/my repository path
Some Doubts which may help in resolving problems:
Will there be any plugin inside Clearcase which i can use for eclipse.
I did not install CCRC WAN server into my machine as am using my machine as a registry server. Is it Mandatroy to install CCRC WAN.
If i want to install CCRC WAN i need to install IBM HTTP server and websphere along with that.
Does this make any impact on the current issue.
To my knowledge, the eclipse--case plugin couldn't possibly work with the ClearTeam 8.x new release of ClearCase.
eclipse-ccase, like the IBM ClearCase plugin for Eclipse are for a full ClearCase 6.x - 7.x installation, not for CCRC (7.2) or ClearTeam (8.x).
With ClearCase 8.0, what you would need to follow is the IBM article
"Installation of ClearTeam Explorer into an existing IDE (such as Eclipse SDK)"

Not able to connect to Clear case server from eclipse SCM plugin

I tried installing SCM Adapter version 7.6.0.0 and version 7.0.2 with eclipse Version: 3.5.0, Version: 3.4.2 and Version: Juno Service Release 2 but no luck at all.
it is getting installed successfully but while connecting getting below error
Select Details>> for more information.
Could not connect to Rational Clearcase. Please ensure that the proper version
of ClearCase is installed with the proper patches. Consult the ClearCase SCM
Adapter documentation for futher details.
Provider name: IBM
Plugin name: Rational ClearCase SCM Adapter
Plugin ID: com.rational.clearcase
Version: 7.6.0.v201105111445
and now getting very much confused, do i need to install complete Clear Case or CCRC will work, as I have CCRC installed on my desktop and it is working fine.
Please do provide your input.
Which version of ClearCase do you have? There could be an issue with version SCM adapter 7.6 not being compatible with your CC version. That what it sounds like.
Your ClearCase installation should come with an update site to ClearTeam Explorer (CTE), which is a different Eclipse plugin that connects to ClearCase. Note though that you cannot have both CTE and SCM adapter installed at the same time, they are mutually exclusive.
There is also an open source plugin that works really well that might be worth checking out.
The advantage of having a Clearcase plugin in Eclipse is huge. You wont have to switch to desktop every time you want to edit a file. Instead the plugin will do that automatically for you. You also get a view listing all checked out files in your view, which helps alot.

Trouble installing Rational Team Concert Eclipse client

I'm having trouble installing the Rational Team Concert 4.0 Eclipse client onto my existing Eclipse installation.
My Eclipse installation is Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers, Indigo Service Release 2.
When I try to install the RTC client into it, I get the following error:
Offering cannot be installed into this existing Eclipse installation configuration because it would invalidate existing bundle constraints
Details:
Message ID: CRIMA1056E
CRIMA1054E: Installing bundle "org.eclipse.xsd_2.6.0.v20100914-1218" into this existing Eclipse installation does not meet the version tolerance of "[2.7.0,3.0.0)" for the existing bundle "org.eclipse.xsd.edit"
I checked http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/wikis/display/rationalinstall/Install+into+an+existing+Eclipse+instance, but there is not yet a section for Rational Team Concert 4.0.
Are there prerequisites I need to install into Eclipse? Does anyone have any advice?
As mention in "Install RTC Eclipse Client 4.0 into an existing Eclipse 3.6.2 using Installation Manager", you must use the Installation Manager, and a special kind of RTC release:
See "When will RTC support Eclipse 3.7 (Indigo)"
You can download the p2 Install Repository zip from the All Downloads tab.
Use the Eclipse installer (Help -> Install New Software) to install it into your own Eclipse 3.7 installation
p2 Install Repository
(Make sure you don't have a similar dependency issue with Juno than in this question, which wasn't about RTC, but could also be relevant).
Other requirements are described in "CLMSystemRequirements"
(you need a jazz.net login, but you request and create one easily)
(System Requirements for CLM 2012 including Jazz Foundation, Rational Team Concert, Rational Quality Manager and Rational Requirements Composer )
See the "Eclipse IDE" section: Eclipse 3.7.2 is supported with RTC4.0 (part of CLM2012).

Flashbuilder 4 and Clearcase plugin

I am running flash builder 4 plugin on eclipse Ganymede 3.4.2
I'm trying to install ClearCase plugin for eclipse but it is giving me no repository found errors. Has anyone run into this? I saw a workaround on a Java forum but it doesn't work in flex view.
Also, I'm willing to even install ClearCase remote client 7.1 bit I can't even get the IBM installation manager installed. Their instructions are impossible. I'm at my wits end.
Can anyone possibly lend a hand? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
ClearCase plugin and CCRC are two very different programs:
ClearCase plugin is a full ClearCase integration with Eclipse, made to work within a full ClearCase client installation.
can be installed through the p2 update site mentioned in the
Rational ClearCase SCM Adapter (For Eclipse), Version 7.5.0.0 page:
SCM Adapter for Eclipse on Windows
http://www3.software.ibm.com/ibmdl/pub/software/rationalsdp/clearcase/60/update/windows/
SCM Adapter for Eclipse on Solaris/Linux
http://www3.software.ibm.com/ibmdl/pub/software/rationalsdp/clearcase/60/update/unix/
CCRC client is a client for a CCRC web server (which in turn with the ClearCase VOB server): no actual ClearCase client locally installed, no cleartool, no nothing: just a lightweight ClearCase client.
You cannot use a CCRC client if you already have a full ClearCase client installed.
You cannot use a CCRC client if you don't have a CCRC server somewhere listening for the request of that (CCRC) client.
