Re: Installing WAS 8.5 Express Supplements

Snipped to cut the length.

No there is no passport advantage access when you use the Web Enablement, WAS 8.5 Express that is shipped with IBM i. The passport advantage folks are quite snippy about it if you call them too.

Yes, installation manger is installed. I have found after digging through the Java dumps that it looks like it does not like the directory the logs are in, and there is some issue with the repository.

I just don't get why this same file is used to successfully install in four out of five partitions, but this one decides to give us grief.

Do you have a passport advantage account, you should be able to install it
directly from there to. You have installation manger installed, correct.
