Cause
A change was made after IBM Worklight 5.0.0.3 resulting in Rich Page Editor no longer being an optionally installed component. Rather, it will be installed as part of the base components. This change had an affect on how an Eclipse update is applied.
Resolving the problem
When implying the upgrade, do the following.
1. Start the Eclipse workbench
2. Open the Window menu and click Preferences
3. In the left panel, click Install/Update which will expand options below it
4. Click Available Software Sites
5. Click Add...
6. In the Add Site window enter a value in the Name field such as "IBM Worklight Update"
7. Click Archive..., navigate to the fix pack archive and click Open
8. Back in the Add Repository window, the Location field should now be filled in
9. Click OK to exit the Preferences window
10. Open the Help menu and click Check for Updates
11. In the Available Updates window, select the items you'd like to install or update
12. Click Next and follow the instructions to complete the installation
