Hello Everyone,
Hope you all are
enjoying working with middleware and doing well. Today's issue is bit different.
When I was trying to install fixpack on one of my environment of WAS 8.5.5.2 I
was getting the below error. The error was actually it's not allowing me to start
the IBM installation manager to install the fixpack. Means this error is not
related to the fix pack installation. We are getting this issue because
improper installation of IBM installationmanager. It will not allow you to even
execute the command ./imcl. When I was trying to execute just ./imcl command,
getting below error.
Error:
.............................................................

ERROR: The
Installation Manager cannot be started. The registry information does not exist
or does not match with this executable. This may happen if you are trying to
run Installation Manager installed by another user.

ADMU0116I: Tool
information is being logged in file
Cause:
In Error itself it's
showing that the Installation Manager cannot be started because you
may trying to run Installation Manager installed by another user. We had
installed the Webpshere environment using wsadmin user and then after according
to the security standard of our organization we changed user to was. It was
working fine for all application server/JVMs and it started all the JVMs. But
when I try to start installation manager it's showing an error because when
Installation manager was installed by user wsadmin it's registry file i.e. InstallationManager.dat
got stored in /export/localhome/wsadmin/etc/.ibm/registry location, which is
the user directory of previous user.
To resolve the issue
I need to copy the registry file i.e. InstallationManager.dat to new user
directory location i.e. /export/localhome/was/etc/.ibm/registry.
Procedure:
Copy the registry
file i.e. InstallationManager.dat from user directory of previous user to the
user directory of new user
Hope this will help
you. Kindly comment for your suggestion and quires.
