Resolution

To install Eclipse you must first enable the Red Hat Developer Tools repositories.

  1. First attach the "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Developer Suite" subscription to this system to have access to the repository:

    # subscription-manager list --available --all
    
    # subscription-manager attach --pool=<RHSCL-POOL-ID>
    

    Note: Kindly select POOL_ID of the RHSCL subscription.

  2. Enable the Red Hat Developer Tools and Red Hat Software Collections (RHSCL) software repositories using subscription-manager as root:

    # subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-devtools-rpms
    
    # subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpms
    
  3. Install Red Hat Development Suite

    You can install all of the components with a single command, or you can choose to install only the tools you need.

    To install all of the tools in Red Hat Development Suite run:

    # yum install rh-devsuite
    

    To install only Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio 11.1:

    # yum install rh-eclipse47-devstudio
    

    To start using rh-eclipse47 type the following at a shell prompt:

    # scl enable rh-eclipse47 eclipse
