Expeditor Server installer shows software prerequisites checking error when the version of WAS 7 server is greater then 7.0.0.9
|
Problem: Lotus Expeditor Server installer can not recognize WAS 7.0.0.1x.
Cause: The prereq.xml file has wrong regular expressions which make it can not validate WAS 7 when it has fix pack numbers greater than 10.
Resolving the problem:
Follow these steps to fix the regular expressions:
- Copy all files from CD/DVD media into local file system (NEW_INSTALL_MEDIA_PATH).
- Using a ZIP tool to open the install.jar (it is in NEW_INSTALL_MEDIA_PATH\package\ folder).
- Extract the prereq.xml (Path: installer.jar\648fab634017de17534635f629d78c4f\LoadPrereqXML\).
- Use text editor to modify following regular expressions after tag are exist:
<productInfo name="WAS" edition="express" version="7\.0\.0\.([5-9]|[1-9][0-9])" resultKey="was70_express" checkByDefault="yes" />
<productInfo name="WAS" edition="base" version="7\.0\.0\.([5-9]|[1-9][0-9])" resultKey="was70_base" checkByDefault="yes" />
<productInfo name="WAS" edition="nd6" version="7\.0\.0\.([5-9]|[1-9][0-9])" resultKey="was70_nd" checkByDefault="yes" />
- Put the modified prereq.xml back to the installer.jar (Path: installer.jar\648fab634017de17534635f629d78c4f\LoadPrereqXML\).
- On Linux or AIX, script files are required to change access rights so as to be executable. Use command "chmod a+x -R *.sh" and start to install Expeditor Server.
