Troubleshooting
Problem
Install of WebSphere Application results in partial success and fails on profile creation when installing on Microsoft Windows 2008 or Windows 7.
Symptom
If profile creation is selected during the initial install, then the following error is seen in the install log (for example: log.txt):

Cause
The minimum supported level for WebSphere Application Server V6.1 is 6.1.0.7 (Windows Vista), 6.1.0.17 (Windows 2008 ) and 6.1.0.29 (Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 7) 7.0 is 7.0.0.7 (Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 7).
If you attempt to install GA version then the profile creation tool and other commands will fail to run because is not at recommended version.
Resolving The Problem
- Option 1:
Use IBM Install Factory for WebSphere Application Server to create a customized installation package (CIP) at your desired level and then run the install and the profile creation should work.
Minimum levels: - Windows 2008 R2 / Windows 7 (6.1.0.29 and 7.0.0.7)
- Windows Vista (6.1.0.9)
- Windows 2008 (6.1.0.17)
- Option 2:
If Install Factory cannot be used and GA version is used for install on Windows 2008 and Windows 7 then profile should not be created at the time of install unless WebSphere Application Server is updated to the recommended level using the Update Installer.
For base and Express install images: - Silent Install: For WebSphere Application Server V6.1 and 7.0, add -OPT profileType="none" in response file.
- GUI Install:
- Version 7.0: select "none" on WebSphere Application Server Environment panel and click on "Yes" on the pop-up Warning.
- Version 6.1: run install.exe/sh -OPT profileType="none" on command line to launch WebSphere Application Server installer.
- Silent Install (Version 6.1/7.0): add -OPT profileType="none" in response file.
- GUI Install:
Version 7.0 /6.1 : select "none" on WebSphere Application Server Environment panel and click on "Yes" on the pop-up Warning.
