Error description

  • French localized installation of "IBM InfoSphere Information
    Server Pack for SAP Applications V7.0" will fail due to error in
    the plugin_abappack.jar present on the installation image.
    
    Issue is only present for French version.
    
    The French version of the
    plugin_abappack\plugin_abappack\META-INF\fr\StageDsc.xml file
    present in .jar package
    ISPackForSAP\ISPackForSAPServer\payload\plugin_abappack.jar is
    not well-formed : a double quote is missing in the label for
    element DSRFC_PROGID

Problem summary

  • The French language install completes fine but the ABAP plugin
    jar is not deployed
    rendering the ABAP plugin unusable. In the installation log an
    error is displayed:
    "Echec de l'installation du module" (Module installation
    Failure)
    and
    "Exception d'analyse syntaxique lors du traitement du
    gestionnaire de type" (Syntax error)
    
    Note: installation logs can be found at
    InformationServer/logs/ISInstall*.log
    

Problem conclusion

  • Corrected the jar file mentioned above. A patch is available for
    Windows (tested by QA) and also patches are ready for testing
    for the other platforms (will be tested and delivered as
    needed).
