ADMA0159W: Duplicate root context(/) was found on the same node 

ADMA5014E: The installation of application xxxxxxxxxx  failed.

are keeping us from deploying the level of the application we would like to use.

 

 

Recommendation:   You will need to uninstall any/all existing versions of the application using the same context root on the same node/server.   You can then install the newest version that you need.    These actions  can be done from the admin (ISC) console.
