Error description The install process checks the version of IHS installed by usingLocal fix Ignore version checkProblem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server Advanced and * * Single Server edition users installing * * fix pack 4.0.6 and attempting to upgrade the * * IBM HTTP Server on a Unix operating system. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The 4.0.6 installation fails if the * * user attempts to upgrade IBM HTTP * * Server 1.3.19.x that does not have the * * IBM HTTP administrative server * * installed. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The 4.0.6 fix pack fails because it cannot determine the version of the IBM HTTP Server if the IBM HTTP administrative server is not installed. The error that is thrown is: ERROR: Silent Mode: The IBM HTTP Server update is enabled but the specified IBM HTTP Server Home 'IHS_UPDATE_HOME' is not the version required (1.3.19.x) for this update. The reason for this failure is the installation script checks for the existence of the <IHS_HOME>/bin/adminctl file to help determine if the installation is a 1.3.x or 2.0.x IBM HTTP Server version. If the file is not there then it assumes that the version is 2.0, which cannot be updated as part of the fix pack update.Problem conclusion The fix pack installation scripts were modified to determine the version of the IBM HTTP Server by executing the 'httpd -version' command and then testing the return code. If that return code is not 0 (zero) then it will then execute the 'apachectl -version' command to determine the version.Temporary fix Comments
