    How to install Rational Agent Controller for WebSphere on Linux: Fedora 6.

    Error: The installer is unable to run in graphical mode. Try running the installer with the -console or -silent flag.

    I had to set the path to include the IBM Java first before the Gnu one.

    Let's look at my default path: echo $PATH
    /usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin

    java -version
    java version "1.4.2"
    gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.1.2 20070626 (Red Hat 4.1.2-13)

    If oyu type: which java you will see that path the GNU java is on.
    /usr/bin/java

    Because I know I have an IBM WebSphere installed I can use the java from the WebSphere install, by setting a new path.

    PATH=/apps/was/ws61/java/bin:$PATH

    java -version
    java version "1.5.0"
    Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build pxi32dev-20060511 (SR2))
    IBM J9 VM (build 2.3, J2RE 1.5.0 IBM J9 2.3 Linux x86-32 j9vmxi3223-20060504 (JIT enabled)
    J9VM - 20060501_06428_lHdSMR
    JIT - 20060428_1800_r8
    GC - 20060501_AA)
    JCL - 20060511a

    You can see it finds IBM java now, then the x windows installation worked, but it is very slow as usual.

    Note: If you wish to install Rational Agent Controller i=silently you can use a response file. There is a demo response file located in the installation folder.































    [root@websphere bin]# ./RAStart.sh
    Starting Agent Controller
    RAServer: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    RAServer failed to start


    Dowmloaded after a search from google

    compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138.i386.rpm

    rpm -ivh compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-138.i386.rpm




    For some reason this did not work, I then had to edit the profile afterwards





    You will not be able to stat and stop remote server from your RAD server profiles.
