![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description The customer executes the install.sh script file it start the process to install PTF2 for WAS 4.01 on HPUX it fails when checking the file set space available, in reality the customer has plenty of space avaialable. The error reported is "prereq failure 50" The specific error 51.Local fix Recommended workaround is to edit a copy of the install.sh script to add the "-SkipVer" parameter to the invocation of the java code to install the fixpak. This is documented in technote 1041535. Modifying the operating system's "df" command is not a recommended solution.Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server 4.0 Advanced * * and Single Server edition users installing * * an eFix or PTF on a Unix platform. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When installing an eFix or PTF on a * * Unix operation system a user could * * receive an error indicating that there * * is not enough disk space available to * * perform the task. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When a Unix system has a long filesystem name, the user may receive the following error during the installation of an eFix or a PTF even though there is more than enough space available to perform the installation: 2002/07/17 09:45:03 Error 52 -- The class FileSystemSpace() returned the following messages: 2002/07/17 09:45:03 Error in FileSystemSpace() v1.8 -- Returned line(<users_directory>) has insufficent tokens. 2002/07/17 09:45:03 Error 51 -- The minimum space required of 110,000,000 bytes is not available on fileSystem <users_directory>.Problem conclusion The reason for this error is a result of the eFix / PTF Installer code executing a "df -k" command on the directory that the eFix / PTF will be installed on. If the FileSystem path is too long then rest of the output would be pushed down to the next line. The code was only checking the first line of the output and because of the long FileSystem name, that was the only text on that line, thus the available disk space fields were not found by the installer. The code was changed to check the following line in the output if the installer determines the FileSystem field was too long to fit it all on one line.Temporary fix This fix will update a class file within the jar file that is causing the problem. The user must point to the specific jar file using the EFIX_JAR property. ie: java -jar -DEFIX_JAR=/opt/was_ae_ptf_2.jar PQ63672_eFix.jarComments
