The first thing to do is verify that our operating system isn’t supported officially by IBM WebSphere Application Server 6.1. You can check on that link http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27007659
After downloaded or put the CD on drive, you need to extract the files from the tar.
Once you have extracted the files the first thing you want to do is run the launchpad.sh script.

Read on another blog: Thunderbird mail client updates itself, then closes and restarts to finish the job. During this process, it fails telling to check to makes sure I have permissions to the files then restarts itself, only to crash and tell me the same thing over and over.
Turns out, I have a Logitech QuickCam. Kill the task tray icon, the update works fine.
Just so you know…

Don’t shut down your mac, just close it. Open it and it will start again.

To remove the ^M characters at the end of all lines in vi, use:
:%s/^V^M//g
The ^v is a CONTROL-V character and ^m is a CONTROL-M. When you type this, it will look like this:
:%s/^M//g

How to remove a file which looks like this -3434234234 in wstemp (WebSphere) or on any AIX system.
Just do: rm -r ./3434234234 and you’re done!

umount /opt/backup
umount: /opt/backup: device is busy
Use following command to see who’s using the device
fuser -u /opt/backup
/opt/backup: 31493c(username)
Use following command too kill process
fuser -mk /opt/backup
option -k to kill and option -m to allow you to specify the filesystem by name
Now you can issue the umount command again, and it works as expected

Finally found some good use for my blog, it’s a place to help other people with the same problems I deal with. Oh sorry I usually run into trouble working (configuring) systems. I’ll explain more later

1. # cd /usr/local/samba/bin
2. # ./smbd -l /usr/local/samba/bin
This writes a log file. My log looked like:
| Code: |
| [2006/10/19 21:56:40, 0] smbd/server.c:main(791) smbd version 2.2.12 started.

[2006/10/19 21:56:40, 0] smbd/server.c:main(877) ERROR: Samba cannot create a SAM SID. |
3. Googling for Samba cannot create a SAM SID revealed stuff about SElinux. Not a lot of help.
4. Further googling found http://www.phptr.com/articles/article.asp?p=419048&rl=1 and I was able to work out that this error was to do with the possible hostname change and samba not updating it.
5. The file that should have been updated was
# /usr/local/samba/private/secrets.tdb
6. I moved the file and started samba again
# cd /etc/init.d/
# ./samba start
samba created a new file.
7. # cat secrets.tdb.old revealed a line with the old hostname it it.
8. checking the processes, smbd had started as it should and my connections worked again.
Found this solution on openFSG forum, tried it and it worked.
