Re: New AS/400 - First Step

[Jim Langston <jlangston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had a similar problem one time, and I think it was
with Client Access.  IBM was fairly clueless as how
to get it installed.  Playing around I found out what
the problem was.

When you install a product, there are 2 pieces that
actually get installed, the program, and the language
files.  For some strange, unknown reason the program
would not install with the language files.  The program
would not install without the language files on the system.

The solution for me was to first install the language files,
then go back and install the language programs.  Called
IBM and told them, and they issued an APAR on it.
This happened for one specific set of install tapes during
a specific date period.

Might be the same type of situation, I don't know, but
it's worth a try.

Jim Langston
