Remote collect of WAS 7.x fails

Remote collect of events from WAS 7.x installed on an Unix machine fails

This happens due to a change in the location of the required library files which are used for a remote collect from WAS 7.x.

WAS 7.x running on Unix platform

Errors in Event source log file:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: nl.consul.cea.gensub.iwas.java.GetWASLogs
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: nl.consul.cea.gensub.iwas.java.GetWASLogs
        at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:434)

The getwaslogs.sh script needs to be modified to include the .jar name in the WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.wsfp.main.jar:

$JAVA_HOME/bin/java" -Djava.security.auth.login.config="$WAS_HOME/properties/wsjaas_client.conf" -Dws.ext.dirs="$WAS_EXT_DIRS;$WAS_USER_DIRS:." -Djava.naming.factory.initial=com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory -Dserver.root="$WAS_HOME" "$CLIENTSAS" "$CLIENTSSL" -Duser.install.root="$USER_INSTALL_ROOT" -classpath "../bin/getwaslogs.jar:$WAS_CLASSPATH:$WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.ws.security.crypto_6.1.0.jar:$WAS_HOME/bin/ProfileManagement/plugins/com.ibm.websphere.v61_6.1.0/ws_runtime.jar:$WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.ws.runtime_6.1.0.jar:$WAS_HOME/runtimes/com.ibm.ws.webservices.thinclient_6.1.0.jar:$WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.ws.admin.core.jar:$WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.ws.prereq.soap.jar:$WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.ws.runtime.jar:$WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.ws.security.crypto.jar:$WAS_HOME/runtimes/com.ibm.ws.webservices.thinclient_7.0.0.jar:$WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.ws.admin.services.jar:$WAS_HOME/plugins/com.ibm.wsfp.main.jar:." nl.consul.cea.gensub.iwas.java.GetWASLogs -host $HOST -port $PORT -username $USER_NAME -password $PASSWORD -showlog $SHOWLOG_PATH -chunk $TEMP_FILE -propsfile $PROPS_FILE 2>>$act_log_file 1>>$act_log_file


You can also use the attached getwaslogs.sh script where the above modification has been done. You need to replace the existing getwaslogs.sh script with the one attached and rerun the collect

getwaslogs.sh
