I am a lurker on this site and most of what is covered is far above my head. That said, I recently upgraded to Websphere Commerce Suite and experienced many, many, many problems with the upgrade. Some of the base problems were authority related to user profile QTMHHTTP not being authorized to the proper folders on the AS/400 IFS. There was a section in the back of the IBM Webspere Commerce Suit Pro Edition for the AS/400 Installation Guide which addressed authority needs. The user profile associated with your instance also had special authority needs along with user profile QEJB. The tables are too lengthy for me to re-type. If you can get hold of a manual (pdf format?) and look there that may be some of your problems. Hope this helps, Dwight "Donald Burdette" <dburdett@ix.netco To: <JAVA400-L@midrange.com> m.com> cc: Sent by: Subject: WebSphere Problems owner-java400-l@mi drange.com 09/21/2000 12:53 PM Please respond to JAVA400-L We are very frustrated with WebSphere. We were able to get version 2 of websphere up and running, we used the WebStudio product to create some very fundamental servlets and everything was working. Since we wanted to have 128 bit encryption we decided to upgrade to 3.02. We have not been able to get things working since then. We had a long spell where we could not even get the thing to run, but after numerous PTF's and untold dollars with IBM support, we have the product running to the point where we can at least display the "Hello World" servlet. But we can't seem to publish any of our previous servlets. They either crash or we get a "not authorized' command. I suspect that a lot of problems may be security related, but I have no idea what I should do to correct them. The documentation sucks. There isn't anything remotely like a manual for WebSphere on the AS/400 and the manuals that are out there for NT or some of the other platforms seem to contradict one another, usually due to differences between the various websphere versions. So, what am I to do? The programmer I have working on this is ready to revolt. He has had experience with IIS and thinks the WebSphere stuff is a pile of you know what. We went to the IBM WebSphere conference in Las Vegas and most of the instructors there had never heard of an AS/400. Go figure. So my questions are these: 1) Are there any good materials, on the web, book form or written on a napkin that can give us some clear instructions on how get websphere running and publish servlets using WebStudio? 2) Is 3.02 flawed? Should we wait for 3.5 and magically life will be better? 3) Should we look at hiring a consultant to get us over the hump? If yes, where would we find one? Do you know any? 4) Should we forget websphere and do something else? I am looking forward to your answers! +--- | This is the JAVA/400 Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to JAVA400-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to JAVA400-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to JAVA400-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner: joe@zappie.net +--- +--- | This is the JAVA/400 Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to JAVA400-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to JAVA400-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to JAVA400-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner: joe@zappie.net +---
