Error description

  • Unable to specify a remote WebSphere Application Server when
    defining a new server in the Servers view.
    
    In Servers view, right click and select New > Server,
    select 'WebSphere Application Server V8.5' for the server type
    (if WebSphere Application Server V8.5 tools feature is
    installed), then specify a remote hostname.
    The "Server runtime environment" field is not shown.
    
    Also, Server > Runtime Environments preference page only shows
    Web Preview Server Runtime. It fails to show WebSphere
    Application Server stub.
    
    
    Workaround:
    
    - backup the <install_dir>/configuration/config.ini
    - edit the <install_dir>/configuration/config.ini
    - add the following line
    was.runtime=<install_dir>/runtimes
    
    - start the product with -clean parameter once
    - verify the Server>Runtime Environments preference page shows
    the WAS stub
