RAD v7.0 installation on Ubuntu 7.10 fails with Exception

When installing RAD v7.0 from the installation Manager it exits with an error which I traced to:
/opt/IBM/SDP70/runtimes/base_v61/logs/manageprofiles/AppSrv01_create.log

The file is attached but here is the relevant section:

I think this is actually more of a general problem than just with RAD, as this same error occurred for me while simply trying to install WAS 6.1 on Ubuntu.

The solution is related to the fact that Ubuntu now uses /bin/dash as the default shell (that is, /bin/sh is linked to /bin/dash). Changing the default shell to bash made this work flawlessly for me.

In summary, you can run:
1) sudo unlink /bin/sh
2) sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh

Then, try the install again (or, in my case, re-run the profile management tool).

Good luck!

Beginning with Feisty Fawn (7.04) the default shell is Dash, not Bash. This can cause problems for IBM product installations such as WebSphere.
Instead of manually changing the filesystem link, you can perform the following command to use Bash

sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash

In the dialog select "No to switch to bash or select "Yes" to switch to dash

I have been using RAD 7.0 on Ubunto 8.04 after installing via the bash/dash change mentioned above. Unfortunately, I didn't install the license using the Installation Manager and now it's expired. I do have my license, but now I can't seem to find a way to install the manager successfully. After I unpack the installation manager zip file, I've tried running install several different ways; double clicking in the file browser, which launches wine. The output from this (using wine start ./install) is:

First, I get the IBM window coming up, which says it's the "IBM Installation Manager". Then I get an error popup which says: "The command line parameters are incorrect:", followed by:

Any suggestions on how to get my valid license installed so I can return to work on RAD 7?

Thanks!
