APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When installing AD , the folders of some of the new services
are not created by the installer but the installation status
file mentions that these services have been installed
successfully
The installation status file is not reflecting the correct
status for the failed install

Local fix

  • This symptom may occur if %SystemRoot%\System32 (for example,
C:\Windows\System32) is not present in the system PATH
variable.  Adding %SystemRoot%\System32 to the system PATH
variable and then re-running the ADDI installer may allow you
to work around the issue and get the additional services
installed.

Problem summary

  • IBM_ADDI_Installation_Status.txt file says the new services were
 installed successfully eventhough the folders for the new
services were not created.

Problem conclusion

  • This issue has been successfully resolved from AD 5109 by
having the installer add the  %SYSTEMROOT%\system32 information
to the end of the PATH environment variable it uses,
but note that that addition is for the current task and does
not permanently affect the server system or its PATH statement
after rebooting.
Installation logging was also improved.
