Error description
IBM HTTP Server V8.5.5 on z/OS post-update process broken due to missing 31-bit version.signature
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Customers running the 31 bit IBM HTTP * * Server version on z/OS. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Post-update processing fails due to * * the missing version.signature file. * * This causes any new files to not be * * copied. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The checks to determine if the version.signature file has changed fail when running the 31 bit IHS on z/OS because the file does not exist in the /.31bit directory. This causes the post-update processing to not complete correctly and any new files will not be copied to the r/w install directory.
Problem conclusion
The version.signature file has been added to the /.31bit directory and the post-install processing will be enhanced to handle a missing version.signature file in the r/w install directory.
