Error description

  • Previously, to install WebSphere Commerce Developer Version 7,
    you needed Rational Application Developer (RAD) Version 7.5.x or
     Version 8.0.4.2 or later installed. Since RAD 7.5.x and 8.0.x
    are out of service as of September 2015, WebSphere Commerce
    Developer Version 7 needs to support Rational Application
    Developer Version 8.5.5.
    
    If you attempt to install WebSphere Commerce Developer Version 7
     on an environment that has RAD 8.5.5 installed, then you
    encounter a prerequisite checking error. This error occurs
    because, by default, WebSphere Commerce Developer specifically
    looks for Rational Application Developer Version 7.5.x or
    8.0.4.x.
