Environment

Windows 2008

Diagnosing The Problem

Try to start the WebSEAL instance using the -foreground option. This will identify the missing librarie(s):

For example:

C:\Program Files\Tivoli\PDWeb\bin>webseald.exe -config etc\webseald-token.conf -foreground


Resolving The Problem

To load the xtokenauthn.dll library, the additional RSA provided library "aceclnt.dll"needs to be available to WebSEAL. Make sure that the path to this dll is in the PATH environment variable.
