Content

When installing TBSM 64-bit into an existing 64-bit TIP installation, the following error is displayed in some circumstances, related to WAS level:


FINER : ENTRY (from com.ibm.netcool.common.ExecSupport.createFileUsingEncoding 437)
FINER : RETURN true (from com.ibm.netcool.common.ExecSupport.createFileUsingEncoding 437)

This is a 32 bit WebSphere binary. (from com.ibm.netcool.wizard.TIPBitnessModeAction.checkTIPBitnessModeScript)
INFO : Stderr: (from com.ibm.netcool.wizard.TIPBitnessModeAction.checkTIPBitnessModeScript)
FINER : RETURN (from com.ibm.netcool.wizard.TIPBitnessModeAction.checkTIPBitnessModeScript)
The installer incorrectly sees the existing 64-bit TIP installation as 32-bit and prints the message "The 64 bit installation image cannot be used on an existing TIP 32 bit installation"

The solution is to use the following steps to replace the scripts on the install image with the updated script that calls TIP bitness script directly

1) Copy TBSM install image to a writable directory
2) In the writable directory, change to directory TBSM/impact
3) Rename tipBitnessMode.sh to tipBitnessMode.sh.orig
4) Rename tipBitnessMode.bat to tipBitnessMode.bat.orig
5) Unzip tipbitness.zip to directory TBSM/impact
6) On Unix, Linux do chmod 755 tipBitnessMode.sh
