Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users of WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V8.5 on
  Windows.
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  The script which runs DB2 as part of the profile creation uses
  the Windows PATH environment variable to find the location of
  the DB2 executable. The script is case sensitive and assumed
  this variable is called PATH. However on some Windows
  installations this variable may be called Path. Hence the script
  could not find the correct path to the DB2 executable.
  

Problem conclusion

• The profile creation script has been updated to look for a
  Windows environment variable called either PATH or Path.
  
  This fix is targeted for WSRR V8.5.5.0.
