WAS admin server is not getting started after installation on window 2000 server, service specific error 10.
I've installed WebSphere app server v4.0.1 on a windows 2000 server with the following environment
I tried this installation according to the redbook WAS4.0 Handbook
OS: Windows 2000 Server with Service pack 3.0
WAS : WAS 4.0.1 with NO Fixpacks applied
Admin server repository on a remote windows 2000 professional machine with DB2 UDB v7.2 with NO Fixpacks
I've updated the JDBC driver at both the db2 server and client(The was server) machines using usejdbc2.bat
I did create the admin database and configure it in the admin client installed on the app server machine.
The user name is db2admin with password db2admin and it has got all the rights and I'm able to connect to the admin server database (I named it as was1) using this uid and pswd both locally and from the remote machine where websphere is installed.
while installing WAS i opted for remote database and i gave the server host ip, port number as 50000 and the path of the SQLLIB folder in the db2 server machine also. Every thing went fine till the installation, but there after the admin
server is not coming up. Its saying service startup failed 'service specific error 10'
Since the admin db is already created, I renamed the createwasdb.scr to createwasdb.bak and so an error msg was logged in the wasdb2.log file saying that file is not found.
I checked the log files and trace files.
The following is what I could find in the file __adminServerFatalError1041291831781.log

The CheckloadClass.log file says Successfully loaded class COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2ConnectionPoolDataSource
wssetup.log has the following entry
DB2 is not installed on the system or the current version of DB2 does not meet the level required by this product. .
but if I'm right its not harmful, coz it was shown when I selected the default SQLLIB folder for admin repository, but got solved when i gave the remote sqllib path
I'm using db2 v7.2 with out any fixpacks.
The internal release no is "DB2 v7.1.0.40" where as the pre-req says "DB2 v7.1.0.43" is needed with fixpack 4
I've checked the user rights of the user connecting to the DB, updated the driver to jdbc2.0, have added one blank line at the end of admin.config and killed the java.exe processes - restarted restarted and still doing the same
With DB2 and the App server on the same machine, I've successfully installed manytimes. but this is the first time i'm trying with a remote DB.
Hope you guys will help me..
by the way, whats meant by 'GA' in the product names IBM DB2 UDB V7.2 GA..? please help
PS: I've removed the < symbol in the log entries

Thanks Kyle and Jose, so WSAD5.0 is the last resort ;-) Is there a downloadable one availbale..? we are IBM partners, I've written to them even, but couldn't find any URL for wasd5.0 at their partner world download pages. If you guys have any clue, pl let me know

Hi All,
I'm using WSAD4.0.3 and CVS right now. Have any one connected VSS with WSAD4.0.3? or is there a VSS Compatible WSAD available for download. I downloaded a VSS plugin, but it says it'll work with Eclipse 2.0 only, and WSAD4.0.3 is not Eclipse 2.0 it seems, I read it as WSAD 5.0 is Eclipse 2.0 compatible.
Please help, this is a bit urgent as we are facing some issues with our version control and Release methods.
Thanks in Advance

Hallo Every one,
Could any one please give me a real world example for Role Based security implementation in J2EE usig the database as realm ie. I need the authentication to be done against a table (say USERINFO) in the database. I've read long stories regarding the same with LDAP and the usual BANK CUSTOMER and ACCOUNT examples, please give something more realistic and practical. Any website link or document will be a great help. And finally, please let me know whether this is a real hype or does it work out for practical large scale systems...
Hope to get some good stuffs
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm developing a J2EE app in WSAD and WAS4.0 with DB2 as the back end. I'm looking for some sort of method thru which I can configure the database url, usename, password, the mail server ip etc thru a config file or properties file(as we can do in weblogic). Please advice me on where shall I put this file, so that I can bundle it with the EJB jar and how can I access it from my EJBs and is there any naming protocols thru which I can locate this file at runtime(like the T3 protocol in Weblogic) please do help.
Thanks In Advance

Hi All,
I need to have a scheduler implemented in a thread, which can send mails after querying the database for the mail id. I'm using EJBs and JPSs. How can implement this deamon thread, so that when the application server comes up, it should be up and ready. Where shall we put this thread - out side EJB container and how this can be started at app server start up. Please help
Thanks in advance
