Error 112 During Install of Cumulative Security Fix
 Technote (FAQ)
 
Problem
"Error 112 - The return code of xxx* is not equal to the expected return code of 0" appears during installation of the 10-07-2002 version of the cumulative security fix. *Return codes of both 255 and 888 have been seen.
 
Solution
Java is trying to execute the jar file "FixSecurityJar". This jar is used to correct packaging problems from previous cumulative security efixes; namely:

PQ61779, PQ62538, PQ62684 and/or PQ63116

1) If you have not applied any of the above 4 cumulative security efixes on your system, then you can ignore these error messages in the extractor log. They are harmless and should not cause you any problems.

2) If you have applied any of the above 4 cumulative security efixes on your system and get these errors when applying a later cumulative security efix, then this would be a valid error.
In this case, contact IBM WebSphere Support.

The readme from that eFix contains the following information:

Additional Information:
------------------------------------------------------------------

Some systems may encounter an error similar to the following while applying this eFix.

2002/10/04 14:09:47 Command= /opt/WebSphere/AppServer/temp/FixSecurityJar.sh /opt/WebSphere/AppServer
2002/10/04 14:09:48 RC=xxx
2002/10/04 14:09:48 Error 112 -- The return code of xxx is not equal to the expected return code of 0.

This error is only important if one of the following was previously applied to the system.

PQ61779, PQ62538, PQ62684 or PQ63116

There are two resolutions to this error. The first is to remove this eFix and all previous eFixes in the opposite order they were installed until all of the eFixes listed above have been removed.
Then all other eFixes including this one can be reapplied. The error above will still occur during installation but it can be ignored.

The second is to follow the steps below.

For Windows, execute the following:
(Note use _AEs_ instead of _AE_ in commands below on AEs systems.)

cd \WebSphere\AppServer
bin\setupCmdLine.bat
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\jar -xvf WAS_Security_10-07-2002_4.0.4-4.0.3-4.0.2_AE_cumulative_eFix.jar temp\FixSecurityJar.jar
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\jar -xvf WAS_Security_10-07-2002_4.0.4-4.0.3-4.0.2_AE_cumulative_eFix.jar temp\FixSecurityJar.bat
temp\FixSecurityJar.bat %WAS_HOME%

For UNIX systems, execute the following:
(Note use _AEs_ instead of _AE_ in commands below on AEs systems.)

. bin/setupCmdLine.sh
$JAVA_HOME/bin/jar -xvf eFix/WAS_Security_10-07-2002_4.0.4-4.0.3-4.0.2_AE_cumulative_eFix.jar temp/FixSecurityJar.jar
$JAVA_HOME/bin/jar -xvf eFix/WAS_Security_10-07-2002_4.0.4-4.0.3-4.0.2_AE_cumulative_eFix.jar temp/FixSecurityJar.sh
. temp/FixSecurityJar.sh $WAS_HOME
