Fail to deploy FileNet Content Engine 5.2.1 via Configuration Manager command line

Troubleshooting


Problem

We need to deploy IBM FileNet Content Platform Engine 5.2.1 on a Linux server by using the Configuration Manager command line. The deploy application task failed.

Symptom

Fail to run the following command to deploy CPE:


    configmgr_cl execute -task DeployApplication -profile MyProfile

Error message found in SystemErr.log:

[2/2/YY 8:34:17:679 PST] 000008ab IscTaskProvid E IscTaskProvider provideServerInstallExtentions CWLAA1031E: Exception=org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.commonarchivecore.internal.exception.OpenFailureException: IWAE0037E Could not open /tmp/app3583178992861716215.ear

Cause

It is required to have the same user who starts the J2EE application server to execute the deployment script.

Environment

Linux

Diagnosing The Problem

Scenario:

  • User A is responsible to run the J2EE application server
  • User B is responsible to execute the deployment script

After User B executed the script, the file "app3583178992861716215.ear" is generated under %tmp% folder and it's permission is set as read and execute only by User B. As a result, the application server is not able to read the file as it's run by User A.

Resolving The Problem

Login as the same user who starts the application server to execute the deployment script.
