| Problem | The WebSphere® Application Server V5 installer does not support coexistent installation of IBM® HTTP Server v1.3.26, even though you can select to do so on the installation panel.
For example, after installing WebSphere Application Server v5.0 Base Edition successfully, you can perform a second installation, and select the coexist option with new ports and a new installation directory for WebSphere Application Server and IBM HTTP Server. However, if you do this and then select to install everything on the second installation, the installer does not install a second instance of IBM HTTP Server. This happens even though you selected it from the list of components to install. | | Cause | The WebSphere Application Server 5.0 Base Edition installer does not support coexistent installation and configuration of IBM HTTP Server v1.3.26. Therefore, the installer reports 0.0 MB for the required space during the IBM HTTP Server installation. IBM HTTP Server is not installed and the directory for the IBM HTTP Server server is not created. The installation log states:"The IHS configuration file was not found or was not properly specified with the -ihsConfigFile option." | | Solution | To install multiple instances of IBM HTTP Server, you must install IBM HTTP Server a second time using the IBM HTTP Server Installer. After installing a second instance of IBM HTTP Server, install WebSphere Application Server, and select the second IBM HTTP Server configuration file (httpd.conf). The WebSphere Application Server installer does the necessary configuration. This process avoids the requirement to manually configure httpd.conf. | |
