Re: Install WebSphere Portal - Express Plus

I think you'd have to find out if the Express versions are supported. I think the Express versions ship as a Freebie with the System i and the "regular" versions are fee based.
I ran onto something similar with HATS. It specified 5.0 or 5.1 Express. I Installed 5.1. Since then I have upgraded to 6.0 with no heartburn.
If I were you I'd install the 5.0 Express or see if you can get an updated version of the Portal Express that will work with 6.0 Express. If you go with 5.0 Express, get the latest group PTF's, they are very important.

This came 'free' with our 520 Enterprise server, and I'm working through a redbook called 'WebSphere Portal Express and Express Plus V5 for the IBM Eserver iSeries Server' (is this the best place to find installation instructions?)
One of the prerequisites is '5722WS5 - WebSphere Application Server V5.0', but I can't figure out which of the CD's that I got with our i5 it might be on so I can install it. 

Likely candidates include:
WebSphere Application Server - Express. One version 5.0 and the other version 5.1. According to the licence book for each, these are 
IBM Web Enablement for iSeries (5722-WE1) and
IBM WebSphere Application Server - Express, Version 5.0 for iSeries (5722-IWE). 



WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 6.0. These apparently are
IBM Web Enablement for i5/OS (5722-WE2) and
IBM WebSphere Application Server - Express v 6.0 (5724-I63)
IBM Enterprise Edition Installation Assistant (5733-ED1) - actually, what the hell is this? 



Can someone point me in the right direction?
