This topic helps you determine whether a product installation problem on a Linux system or a UNIX system is caused by a failing ANT configuration script.
Before you begin
Start diagnosing installation problems by looking at the troubleshooting procedure. See Troubleshooting installation. After the installation completes successfully, several ANT scripts configure the product. This topic describes what to do when an ANT script fails.
If you are looking for troubleshooting information for the Web server plug-ins for WebSphere Application Server, see Troubleshooting Web server plug-ins installation and removal. This topic does not describe the plug-ins.
Use this topic when the installation log does not indicate a failure, to correct any problems with failing ANT configuration scripts.
Why and when to perform this task
The app_server_root/logs/instconfig.log file contains information about ANT scripts. The file is not created on Linux systems and UNIX systems. The installation utility known as the ConfigManager runs the ANT scripts.
The app_server_root/logs/instconfig.log file, when present, describes any failure of an ANT script.
Use this topic to determine if any of the following configuration scripts failed. If so, use the configuration script recovery procedures. Use the investigative action to manually verify that the following configuration scripts ran successfully during the configuration of the WebSphere Application Server product. If any script failed, use the recovery action to complete the function of the script.
Steps for this task
This script changes the permission of the following directory to 766: app_server_root/cloudscape/databases
Log file to investigate for a possible error: app_server_root/logs/ModifyCloudscapePermission.log
Investigative action: Verify that the permissions of the following directory are 766: app_server_root/cloudscape/databases
Recovery action: Issue the following command to change the permission: chmod -R 766 app_server_root/cloudscape/databases
This script changes the permissions of the following script to 755: app_server_root/bin/migration.sh
From: | To the value that you selected during installation: |
---|---|
${JAVAROOT} | app_server_root/java/jre/bin/java |

${WASROOT} | app_server_root |
${PRODUCTID} | ${WS_CMT_PRODUCT_TYPE} |
Log file to investigate for a possible error: No log file exists for this script.
This script copies all files from the app_server_root /properties/version/install/firststeps directory to the app_server_root /firststeps/html/noprofile directory.
