Problem(Abstract) |
The WASServiceMsg.dll file is locked by the Microsoft®
Windows® operating system and cannot be updated during the upgrade of
WebSphere® Application Server. |
|
Cause |
The following error can occur when you have WebSphere
Application Server set up to run as a service. It does not matter if the
service starts automatically or not.
2006-02-09T12:47:14+01:00 Error 79 --
Unable to open destination file:
C:\Program Files\WebSphere\AppServer\\bin\WASServiceMsg.dll :
C:\Program
Files\WebSphere\AppServer\\bin\WASServiceMsg.dll (The requested
operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open)
2006-02-09T12:47:14+01:00 java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Program
Files\WebSphere\AppServer\\bin\WASServiceMsg.dll (The requested operation
cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open)
at java.io.FileOutputStream.open........ |
In addition, during uninstalling and reinstalling the WASServiceMsg.dll
file could remain locked after the uninstall has completed. This will
cause the reinstall to fail.

|
Resolving the
problem |
If you have WebSphere Application Server running as a
service to start automatically, change this to start manually. Then reboot
your machine and retry the installation.
If you do not have WebSphere Application Server set to start
automatically and it is already set to start manually, then reboot your
machine to free the locked resource. Then retry the installation.
If you are uninstalling and then reinstalling. Reboot your machine after
a successful uninstall before reinstalling.
In addition to the steps above, sometimes it is necessary to shut down
the Windows Management Instrumentation service after your system has
rebooted. Then retry the installation. |
