PK23962: IKEYMAN.BAT ON MICROSOFT WINDOWS FAILS WITH GSKIT 7.0.3.20

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• After installing GSKit 7.0.3.20 on Windows, ikeyman.bat as
  supplied with IBM HTTP Server no longer works.
  

Local fix

• Use a locally modified ikeyman.bat such as the following,
  updating the setting of JAVA_HOME and the GSKit install
  directory as appropriate:
  @echo off
  set JAVA_HOME=d:\IHS6029GA\_jvm
  c:
  cd "C:\Program Files\ibm\gsk7\bin"
  gsk7ikm.exe
  

Problem summary

• A change in GSKit 7.0.3.20 introduced a
  problem where the gsk7ikm.exe program cannot locate the GSKit
  libraries unless gsk7ikm.exe is run from the GSKit bin
  directory.
  This problem only affects ikeyman users on the Windows platform.
  

Problem conclusion

• The ikeyman.bat batch file provided with
  IBM HTTP Server will be modified to work with GSKit 7.0.3.20
  or with any subsequent levels of GSKit.  It will no longer
  run gsk7ikm.exe but instead will invoke the GSKit classes for
  ikeyman directly.
  

Temporary fix
