Problem
Installing a Maximo Fix Pack fails with Error adding Tasks to Task List
Symptom
You will see these errors in the CtgInstallTrace00.log:
Error in CTGInstallTrace00.log is Exception caught creating Task: com.ibm.tivoli.ccmdb.install.common.config.ConfigurationException: CTGIN2373E: Exception caught instantiating Application Server configuration object.
CTGIN0024E: An unexpected exception was encountered during processing of a process solution installation service request. The exception is com.zerog.ia.api.pub.FatalInstallException: Error adding Tasks to Task List
Cause
The \IBM\SMP\etc\install.properties file does not contain one or more WebSphere parameters that are required by the Fix Pack installer, and the installing user is not prompted to provide them.
Environment
Maximo 7.5.0.x installed on WebSphere Application Server
