Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

The process detection bundle should not check WebSphere
Application Server running processes when -skipInstall is
used.

Local fix

To bypass the running process detection, please follow the
steps below:
- Backup <IM Root>/eclipse/configuration/config.ini
- Open <IM Root>/eclipse/configuration/config.ini in an editor
- Add line "was.install.disable.detect.running.process=true" to
the end
of this file and save.

*                      Installation Manager. However,          *
*                      Installation Manager shows error        *
*                      message:                                *

* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
WebSphere Application Server offering has a bundle to detect
whether or not WebSphere Application Server is running. It
will block the Installation if running processes are detected.
However, when Installation Manager creates a response file
(that is, using -skipInstall), it actually does not install
content of WebSphere Application Server. Therefore, it is not
necessary to check whether or not WebSphere Application
Server is running.

Problem conclusion

The fix is to skip the detect running process bundle if
-skipInstall is used.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 8.0.0.14, 8.5.5.12 and 9.0.0.4.  Please refer to the
