From the /IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin directory, run the wasprofile.sh to delete the profile; then delete the profiles directory. thanks, but by this time I had already deleted that script and parent directories. By following the instructions in the above IBM sites, I was able to re-install success...

If anyone is looking for it, here are the instructions to completely uninstall all Information Server components, including WAS: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iisinfsv/v8r1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.swg.im.iis.productization.iisinfsv.install.doc/topics/wsisinst_uninstall_manual_unix.html H...

ah ha! removing everything under /root/InstallShield/Universal/IBM worked for me! Your advice is greatly appreciated. Now... to figure out the WAS part... Any ideas here? It says "A previous installation of WebSphere Application Server was not removed completely. See the WebSphere Application S...

Rob, I had the similar problem before for 8.0.1 version. I was instructed by the tech. support just delete everything after the IBM directory from the following: ./root/InstallShield/Universal/IBM/InformationServer/Gen2/_vpddb/vpd.script. Are you installing IIS 8.1 Linux 32 bit on RHEL AS 4 64-bit?...

OK, I made a mistake on on our lab server when trying to re-install Information Server v8.1. I forgot to run the actual uninstall script first before removing/deleting the application directories (IBM/InformationServer, IBM/WebSphere). So now when I run the install script, it says that an installati...

You should upgrade to Information Analyser 8.1.1 anyway since it comes with a number of patches and the new business rule monitoring functionality. As far as I know it's the only product at the 8.1.1 version and the others are still at 8.1. I did notice on the IBM site that Information Analyzer ver...

ok thanks. It looks like that's what I'll have to do. Interesting how our IBM rep told us that it was already installed by default....

By the way, is there an easy way to check what components are installed on the server?

Does anyone know if the Info Server installation includes the Information Analyzer software by default even if your license file does not include Info Analyzer? My scenario is we installed v8.1 Info Server with a DataStage and QualityStage license (the install did not allow me to check the box for I...

Thanks for the reply Ray. OK, I understand now that the spawned server processes inherit the environment variables from dsrpcd. So, though the process is actually running under a user id, I need to set the environment variables explicitly (for example HOME and USER) from within the job or within any...

I'm running 7.5.1A in impersonation mode and 8.1 in non-mapped mode (no credential mapping), both on RedHat Linux. PROBLEM : When I run a job using a non-dsadm id, the HOME and USER environment variables are set to the dsadm user's values. The behavior seems to be the same in Server, Parallel jobs a...

Unfortunately I can't quite understand the command: DStageWrapper.sh -query "select x.Name,x.HostName from x in DataStageX::DSProject" what does the "x" stand for? and what is DataStageX::DSProject? you know what... I think you just enter the commands as-is. I don't remember cha...

I've got the 8.1 instructions from IBM (PMR 47284,004,000), and it seems like it's worked so far for our environment. Let me know if you'd like me to post the instructions (btw, does anyone know if its "legal" for me to post these things from IBM support to this forum?).

Please, let know if it worked at your site.
Thank you.

FYI, it didn't work. I was informed by IBM today that the instructions sent to me were specifically for 8.0.1 and won't work for 8.1. They are checking with Engineering for instructions for 8.1.

FYI, I've received the procedure from IBM. I can post it here if anyone wants it.

I need to do exactly this. Were you successful with getting a procedure from IBM that works? dinagiza, would you mind sending me the steps that IBM gave you so I could give it a try? I found one entry of the database repository in the WAS web console under Resources > JDBC providers > Data Sources (...
