I'm trying to install WSRR on Linux (Ubuntu 11.04), but without success. I think I'm lacking some important information about installation. I've read that it's a prerequisite to have WebSphere Application Server (WAS) and DB2 installed, but when I downloaded WSRR package it has its own version of WAS and during installation it offers me Derby DB. In order to install it I had to change bash for dash (or vice versa). In the end I tried create profile of standalone WSRR in Profile Management Tool but with no success. Did anybody success in installation of standalone WSRR? Please help me, I need it for my thesis.

Thank you.

So finally I managed to install and run WSRR.

  1. First of all you have to have OpenSuse installed.
  2. Log in as root
  3. Reinstall you web browser (I changed mozilla 4 to mozilla 6)
  4. Launch installation ./launchpad.sh
  5. Create profile with Profile Management Tool GUI
  6. Run First steps console => change directory to profile_root/firststeps/wsrr, for example, opt/IBM/WebSphere/ServiceRegistry/profiles/WSRRSrv01/firststeps/wsrr and ./launchpad.sh
  7. Run server
  8. Start the WSRR Web UI (if you have stand-alone server)

  • thx, but I've just found another error :D I can't change perspective in WSRR, so I see only configuration perspective. Nice thank you very much IBM and OpenSuse – Mr Black Sep 07 '11 at 16:31
  • I have latest WSRR, but it seems to me like javascript bug in linuxs mozilla – Mr Black Sep 07 '11 at 16:49
  • sorry, can't help with that. Contact your local IBM rep :-) – home Sep 08 '11 at 13:29
  • Don't worry I think no one can help me :D – Mr Black Sep 08 '11 at 21:52
  • Finally I've managed to add a WSDL document to WSRR and to use some perspective. All you have to do is to press Configuration --> Manage Configuration Profile --> Configuration Profiles --> Load Configuration Profile and select BasicProfile_v70.zip from directory ${Install_Root}\WSRR\config\ – Mr Black Sep 08 '11 at 22:19

Not a final answer... it seems you're installing on an unsupported platform. Never try this with commercial software, you will fail or will need hours and hours to get it up and running.

  • Hi, thnak you for your reply. I've downloaded and installed OpenSUSE 11.4 as it seems to be supported platform, but when I tried to start WSRR installation, it failed with message "Unable to find supported browser", which is weird because OpenSUSE has Firefox 4.0. – Mr Black Sep 05 '11 at 07:07
  • Did you follow the steps described in the [WSRR InfoCenter](http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/sr/v7r5/index.jsp)? The link relates to version 7.5, not sure which one you use. You must exactly follow alll those steps. Those ... complex, comercial tools can be frustrating to install. – home Sep 05 '11 at 14:09
