Error description

  • When client installed web server plugin, the following files
    were created under "C:\IBM\WebSphere\Plugins\logs\config\" .
    
    ?c
    onfigure_IHS_webserver.log
    ?findIHSRoot.log
    ?installApachePlugin
    .log
    
    installIHSPlugin.log should have been created instead of
    findIHSRoot.log.
    I asked L3 in TS005456560 and confirmed this
    should be fixed.
    Please address this problem.
