Error description

  • Impact 611 FP1 install fails when installing on GA 611, which
    has been first upgraded from Impact 610. It appears that DE is
    still showing the "ImpactCommon_Install" listing as 6.1.0,
    which is the likely cause of the current upgrade failures.
    

Local fix

  • L3/Dev will be working on a fix that should be included in the
    next re-release of FP01 for 6.1.1
    

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
    * All Impact Users                                             *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
    * Per the 6.1.1.0 Doc, Clients are supposed to apply the       *
    * latest Impact Fix Pack maintenance on an Impact 6.1.0.x (in  *
    * this case Fix Pack 1), prior to upgrading to 6.1.1.0.        *
    * However, after the upgrade to Impact 6.1.1.0, the Impact     *
    * 6.1.1 FP1 installer fails to detect that Impact has been     *
    * installed and therefore, will not allow the Fix Pack 1 to    *
    * install.                                                     *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    * Contact support to get instructions to correct the Impact    *
    * 6.1.1 Fix Pack 1 installer or apply Impact 6.1.1 Fix Pack 2  *
    ****************************************************************
    The Impact 6.1.1 installer logic, used in the upgrade process,
    incorrectly referenced a mimimum version level (of 6.1.1.0
    instead of 6.1.0.0).
    

Problem conclusion

  • A correction to the Impact Fixpack installer logic was made.
    
    The fix for this APAR is contained in the following maintenance
    package:
    | Fix Pack | 6.1.1-TIV-NCI-FP0002
    

Temporary fix
