When installing the provisioning system on IBM AIX 5.2 or 5.3 systems, the following error might appear:
Checking the integrity of the package. Error! This package seems to be corrupted. Use another copy of the package. |
Workaround: An issue in the IBM AIX operating system causes the installation to fail. Install one of the following patches to correct the problem:
On IBM AIX 5.2 systems, install the IBM APAR IY68428 patch. For more information about this patch, see http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1IY68428.
On IBM AIX 5.3 systems, install the IBM APAR IY67843 patch. For more information about this patch, see http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1IY67843.
If the installation script detects any JRE instances already installed in the common directory on an AIX machine, the following warning appears:
WARNING: Overwriting the JRE can result in installation problems when libraries from this JRE are cached by the OS. If you have used, or are running another CenterRun module that uses this JRE, you should stop that other module, and run /usr/sbin/slibclean as root. Do you wish to continue installation? (default: y) [y,n] |
When a JRE is installed on an AIX machine, AIX caches native libraries from the JRE in memory. When these libraries are cached, they are locked on disk. Trying to install a new JRE over the locked libraries creates errors.
Do not install a new version of the JRE. When prompted to install the JRE, choose no. Then, provide a path to the JRE that is already installed on the machine.
