Enterprise applications cannot be installed remotely using wsadmin
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
Enterprise applications cannot be installed remotely on a non-federated Base node using wsadmin on IBM® WebSphere® Application Server V5.0 releases.
 
Cause
A non-federated Base application server does not provide a file transfer capability for the wsadmin interface.
 
Resolving the problem
Remote .ear files cannot be installed remotely using wsadmin on a Base node that is not part of a WebSphere cell. A non-federated Base application server does not provide the file transfer capability for wsadmin. The Web console works fine because it does not use the file transfer application and has implemented another file transfer mechanism to browse and transfer .ear files between different machines.

The file transfer application is functional only in a Network Deployment managed cell environment. You can use either the Web console to install .ear files remotely, or install Network Deployment Edition and use the WebSphere Deployment manager to install .ear files through the cell manager using wsadmin after federating the Base node.


The following error was noticed in one of the customer com.ibm.websphere.management.exception.AdminException: ADMA0043E:
C:\Documents and Settings\tsimon\Local
Settings\Temp\NSA_NBP_WebModule.ear does not exist for installation.
