  • 1.  Issue applying fix pack in WAS 8.5

    Posted 10/02/13 05:37 PM
    Hello Team,

    I'm trying to apply 8.5.0-WS-WAS-FP0000002 but unable to do so. I get the following error message:
    CRIMA1039E ERROR: The following errors were generated while installing.

      CRIMA1039E ERROR:   The installation directory /opt/WebSphere/AppServer exists and contains files.

      The installation did not start because the installation directory contains files.

      Enter an installation directory that does not exist or that does not contain files. Installation Manager creates the specified installation directory during the installation if the directory does not exist.

    and command  I give is:
    ./imcl install com.ibm.websphere.ND.v85_8.5.2.20130327_1831 -repositories /fixpack_8.5/repository.config  -installationDirectory /opt/WebSphere/AppServer  -acceptLicense
    also, I tried with -installFixes all
    but no luck.
    When I list the available packages, I get the following:
     com.ibm.websphere.BASE.v85_8.5.2.20130327_1831 : IBM WebSphere Application Server : 8.5.0.2

    I tried that, but it fails with a different message. Ideally the command should upgrade the product to a later minor version.

    Thanks,

    I believe the command you may be looking for is the ./imcl -updateAll, rather than install.  Install would require the empty directory I believe.  The updateAll command should be used for patching.

    Thanks Erik.

    Issue has been resolved after including -datalocation flag to imcl. The command looks like this:

    ./imcl install com.ibm.websphere.ND.v85_8.5.2.20130327_1831  -repositories   -installationDirectory   -acceptLicense -dataLocation

    Thanks,
