Re: WDSC Version 7.0.0 Update Fails -- WDSCI-L

Be sure that you use Installation Manager. It is the third entry after you click Help -> Software updates. Uou may have a menu entry for IBM Installation Manager, which is the same thing. The last version of WDSc was 7.0.0.8, though this shows up only (I think) in Installation Manager.

(I don't think WDSc is still supported, but you can try Installation Manager and see if it will update and it certainly works well for V5R4.)

I'm setting up WDSC version 7.0.0 on a PC (Windows XP). iSeries is V5R4.
When trying to update the software (help menu -> software updates) I get a
number of windows asking for download sources (I've tried a couple of
different ones with the same results) then it sits there for a couple of
hours (a status bar on the bottom of the screen does indicate progress) and
then a error window is displayed: "network connection problems encountered
during search". The following lines are displayed in the error details. Am
I missing something in a config? Is there a better way to do updates? Is
this version to old to do updates? Any help would be appreciated.
