This is strange. I assume you have those disk1 - - disk9 copied to the server, 
right? 

I guess it's better to clean up and start from beginning again:

A. Uninstall WDSC for iSeries
Make sure that your WDSC AE/WDSC Standard are completely uninstalled. This can 
be done via the IBM Installation Manager -> Uninstall Manually delete any 
folders named C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP70, C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP70Shared

B. Uninstall IBM Installation Manager
Go to Windows Add/Remove and uninstall the IBM Installation Manager.
Manually delete everything in this folder: C:\Documents and 
Settings\<user>\Application Data\IBM\Installation Manager.  <user> may be 
'Administrator', 'All Users', your windows user id, etc... Please check all the 
folders and make sure any remainders of the IBM IM has been deleted.

Then re-install. Pls select only RSE (i.e., anything you can de-select, do so), 
and see if you can install it.  You can add other items later using IM. BTW, 
what's Windows system is this?

Thanks.

Re: [WDSCI-L] Error installing 7.0






Sorry, for the confusion.  I meant installing the WAS6.1 server.  There is 
not a web server involved in the installation.

I tried leaving out any installation of a WAS test server and am still 
getting this error.
Error installing IBM® WebSphere® Development Studio Client for iSeries® 
  Error during "install" phase:
    Artifact 'zip base.v61.stub.api 6.1.0.20061006' not found in 
C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP70Shared.

The parts I'm trying to install are i5/OS development tools, IBM WebFacing 
Tool, and i5/OS Web and Java tools.

Any ideas?

Rick

Didn't realize you are using a web server. Is there any error log on the 
web server (like any time out exception)? 
Just guess, I've never have any problem with a web server. 

Thanks.

Re: [WDSCI-L] Error installing 7.0






It still didn't work.  The \Program Files\IBM\SDP70 folder was empty but I 

deleted it anyway.  From your post it sounds like the issue is with the 
web servers.  I think I'll try installing without any of the test web 
servers and see how that goes.  If it installs I'll try and add a test web 

server.

Can you start the IBM Installation Manager (IM), and check if WDSC is 
installed (one way is to click Uninstall in IM, and see if WDSC is listed; 

if it's empty, it's not installed).  If it is installed (but with the 
error), you can then click Modify to add WAS V61.  If there's nothing 
installed, you can try reinstall again (may need to delete an old folder; 
by default, it's \Program Files\IBM\SDP70 ).

Thanks.

Yes, the disks have been copied to a network drive.  AFAIK, we don't have 
a set of CD's yet.  Our operations group downloaded the zip files and 
exported them to the IFS on our production system.  I'm trying to install 
from there.

Have you copied the CDs to a network drive (or a local disk) first? If 
not, you can try re-install by copying the CDs first. This is to make sure 


it's not a media error or CD drive error. Sometimes the CD drive may be 
able to read the  first few CDs ok, then it cann't read a CD.

1. Create a tmp folder on any drive, e.g., on drive C:, create a folder 
called WDSC (or whatever name); 2. CD into WDSC, create a sub-folder disk1 


 (must be disk1); 3. CD into disk1, and do a XCOPY to copy cd1 into this 
folder. E.g. 
          C:\WDSC\disk1>  XCOPY  Z:*.*  /s   [Enter],        where Z: is 
the CD drive.
4. Do the same for the rest of the CDs. After all down, they should have a 


folder structure like this:
      C:\WDSC\disk1
      C:\WDSC\disk2
      ... ...
      C:\WDSC\disk10   (WDSC Advanced Ed. has 10 CDs, while the standard 
ed has only 9).
5. Now CD into C:\WDSC\disk1
6. Issue the following command to begin install: 
     C:\WDSC\disk1\launchpad

Note: the CDs can be copied this way to a network server. Then everybody 
can map a drive to this server, and then begin install from the server(no 
CD required).  Any Windows PC (XP, 2000, Vista, or a W 2003 server,  etc) 
can be such a "server"; as long as a share is created on the drive that 
contains the CD image, everybody can map a drive to it.

Thanks.

[WDSCI-L] Error installing 7.0







I have run into an error installing WDSC 7.0 standard edition from a 
network drive.  I didn't find anything that sounded like this in the 
archives and haven't been able to find a support link in the documentation 



that will let me post a question.  I did find a searchable IBM site but it 



didn't turn anything up.  If anyone has experienced this and has a 
resolution, or can point me to a support site I can post to that would be 
great.

Error I'm seeing:
"Error installing IBM® WebSphere® Development Studio Client for iSeries® 
  Error during "install" phase:
    Artifact 'zip base.v61.stub.api 6.1.0.20061006' not found in 
C:\Program Files\IBM\SDP70Shared."

From the log file:

Error installing IBM® WebSphere® Development Studio Client for iSeries®
Error during "install" phase:
Artifact 'zip base.v61.stub.api 6.1.0.20061006' not found in C:\Program 
file\IBM\SDP70Shared.
