Re: Using Websphere, WDT400 and web facing, DOWNLEVEL VERSION of WEBFACING SERVER

If you downloaded the service packs for the PC side you will need to 
reconvert/publish the webfacing app.

VERSION  of 
WEBFACING SERVER


Well.

my starting point is the latest PTF cume .. C1163510
further background further down this posting.

To see the exact error I am getting, plse goto
http://as400.kmtcinc.net/demo/   and select one of the options.
it is (supposed to be) the IBM supplied Soccer Team demo program.
The implication to me, and per Brian yesterday, is that the PC and the 
Server are running at different
versions of the WebServer/WebFacingServer .. kind of a level-check on 
software.

After lots of checking,  I downloaded a few PTFs that I thought I would 
not 
need, eg, C++ compiler.
There were 2 that ECS would not let me order,
viz.  SI01824 and SI00558

and there was one that they wanted to Mail to me, viz/  SI01795

however, in the interrim, i downloaded all and sundry PTFs that I was 
missing, and still not having any luck on it.

I thought I would re-post in-case someone has other experiences that might 

point me on other directions,
while I am waiting for the IBM PTFs to come in...


TIA
