I'm trying to install a plug-in for Aldon in RDi 9.8 and Aldon Version 8.6. Is there one that works with both? We had the plug-in working on RDi 9.6. I've tried RocketAldonEclipsePlugin8.2.801.zip, Rocket DevOps Eclipse plug-in 10.3.0.zip, Rocket DevOps Eclipse plug-in 10.4.0.zip and Rocket DevOps Eclipse plug-in 10.5.0.zip.
When I try to install the ones available I get the following errors. Or something similar.
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

Hi Ricky,
Thanks for poppin' in to the Forum.
That version of 8.6 predates our RDi v9.8x support. With the changes in 9.8.x, we completed compatibility updates starting with RDOi (the 'new' LMi branding - same application and libs) version 10.3.
Please open a case with the team and we'll confirm what you'll need to do to get upgraded.
FYI, the newer versions of RDOi are also supporting VS Code extensions for development via that IDE.
Release Notes here from 10.5 all the way back for review of your upgrade options and available fixes/features.
https://docs.rocketsoftware.com/bundle/rdoi_rn_10x/page/rdoi_rn_intro.html
Please let us know how we can help you further.
Best,

Ricky,
One additional note on LMi 8.6 upgrade from the team: "8.6 was released in April 2022. They should get current while they can still do it in one step. 8.6 can go to 10.5, but that probably won't be the case for 10.6 later this year."
Looks like it would be easiest to go to latest. Please take a look at the Release notes (previous update) and let us know how we can assist.

Yes we are talking to our rep about that already.
Thanks I was guessing that was the case. Our Aldon version was too old. I assume it's too old for the VSCode Plug-in as well.
