Unable to install Connections 4.5 Ear file not found during News install

by · Published · Updated

I was upgrading a Connections 4 deployment in place and ran into the following issue: Install of the 4.5 code failed on news install on following error:

[exec] [wsadmin] WASX7017E: Exception received while running file "E:profiles8Dmgr01ConfigEngineconfigworkwascurJaclScript.jacl"; exception information: com.ibm.websphere.management.exception.AdminException
[exec] [wsadmin] javax.management.MBeanException
[exec] [wsadmin] com.ibm.websphere.management.exception.AdminException
[exec] [wsadmin] com.ibm.websphere.management.exception.AdminException: ADMA0043E: C:Users.WRA_AdminAppDataLocalTemp2app8342204399205721911.ear does not exist for installation.
 

I tried a lot of things like checking security, putting a file monitor on the temp folder (to see the file actually exists during install), I reinstalled WebSphere and Cognos.

In the end I changed my users temp varialble to C:temp and install went fine
