IBM Maximo Application Suite 8.5.0 installer installs an incompatible version of IBM Truststore Manager

Troubleshooting


Problem

The Maximo Application Suite (MAS) 8.5 installer installs IBM Truststore Manager version 1.1.0 by default.  However, this version requires a version of Java that's incompatible with other components required by or installed on top of MAS, and can result in errors accessing truststore files.

Symptom

If version 1.1.0 of IBM Truststore Manager is installed, you might encounter errors where components are not able to read p12 truststore files and failing to properly initialize.

Cause

IBM Truststore Manager version 1.1.0 requires a version of Java that is incompatible with other components that are required by or that are installed on top of Maximo Application Suite.

Environment

This only impacts users who install Maximo Application Suite by using the installer script. Operator Lifecycle Manager-based installations should not be affected as the latest version of truststore manager is always used by default.

Resolving The Problem

Before you run the Maximo Application Suite installer, set and export the following variable:
export TM_VERSION=1.1.1
After you have set the variable, continue with the Maximo Application Suite installation.
