APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • "Cannot write config file" is displayed when trying to save
    and exit from the DMHINSTL Set up panel.
    

Local fix

  • None Known
    

Problem summary

  • When a user who is not the owner of the RAA USS
    files/directories (and does not have root authority), the
    DMHINSTL Set up
    option changes cannot be saved, even if the user has group
    access to the files/directories and the group has write access.
      The
    message "Cannot write config file" is displayed when trying to
    save the changes.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Updated the DMHINSTL Set up option to no longer change the
    permission of existing directories.  The Installation Guide has
    been updated with optional instructions for authorizing
    additional installers.   The instructions involve adding the
    RAA installer
    group to the access control lists for configuration
    files/directories so that other installers have full
    permissions.
