Error description

  • Abstract:
    
    
    
    Attempting to install Rational Software Architect for WebSphere
    8.0.3 fails in the presence of some anti-virus software because
    of the file 'security.update.bat'.
    
    
    
    Problem:
    
    
    
    When you install Rational Software Architect for WebSphere 8.0.3
    while keeping some anti-virus software running an error may
    occur in relation to the file named 'security.update.bat'. This
    file is blocked by some anti-virus software because of the
    presence of two dots (double-dot) in the file name.
    
    
    
    Local fix:
    
    
    
    Disable the anti-virus during installation.
