IV17363: THE UCM STARTS IN LINUX, BUT NOT IN THE AIX PLATFORM

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The ucm exits on start up with the following output:
  
    -bash-3.2# ./ucm.sh
    Java binary used:

    The java class is not found:  com.ibm.tsom.ucm.UCM

  The problem turns out to be a missing ":" in the syntax for
  classpath initialization.
  
        CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}${LIBRARY_LOC}/${JAR}:
  
        CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:${LIBRARY_LOC}/${JAR}:
  
  The second line, with the ":" added between classpath and
  library_loc resolves the issue.
  

Local fix

• add ":" to the line:
  
    CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}${LIBRARY_LOC}/${JAR}:
  
  between {CLASSPATH} and ${LIBRARY_LOC}
