Hi.
I've just installed fixpack2 for IBM IS 8.1 and... I don't know if it is sucess or not
Installer said that "IPatchInstaller 92171: Update completed with warning. Review the patch installation log file for more information"
Statusbar is on 100% but finish button is inactive.
All IBM IS components are up and running but... here is what I found in Version.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

...

It says status="fail" on both fixpacks...

So what do You think? Do I have fixpack2 properly installed or not?

Well... it seems like they may have failed because they were already installed. So yes and no.

Hi,

I know this is an old thread. By any chance, could you tell me how you installed FP2.

Presumably using the correct version of the Update Installer.

Hi.

I installed it using updateInstaller in console mode.
updateINstaller have multiple switches, and one of them allows You to use console.
If You have any specific problem please post it, I will gladly answer.

Hi tcheslav,

I just finished the FP2 installation using GUI mode. I had same situation as you had for the first time. It completed with warnings.

Can I rerun the update again in console mode? Not sure if it is because I use the GUi mode and the GUi mode causes the problem.

Hi

Use installer in console mode with -force option. That option will allow You to reinstall FP2.

Good Luck.

Thanks,

Actually there's a problem I am facing. The reason why the installation failed is because one model was partially deployed. ERROR [org.apache.commons.launcher.ChildMain] impl.DefaultModelDeployer - com.ibm.xmeta.exception.ModelIsPartiallyDeployedException: This model is partially deployed: "http:///ASCLModel/1.0/ASCLCustomAttribute.ecore".

And because of that there are some other components are skipped and not updated.

Is there a way to skip that model, so I can complete the rest installation?
