|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
APAR status Closed as program error. Error description This APAR serves to document that the changes made to the PTF/efix Installer code were backed out using this APAR. The changes were meant so that the PTF/efix installer code preserved permission attributes when installing the 4.0.5 ptf or an efix. The changes that were made were too great to be adequately tested in the course of ptf testing. The changes will be made in the next full release of WebSphere.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server users that * * are installing WebSphere as a non root * * user on 4.0.x or installing an efix * * on 4.0.x. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: PQ59675 included code which attempted * * to allow the ptf/efix installer to * * save file permissions and ownership * * during the application of a ptf or * * efix.
