Install fix packs on the Web Server Plug-ins using the GUI

We can update the Web Server Plug-ins to a later version using the Installation Manager GUI.

Verify the web-based or local service repository location is listed and checked or the Search service repositories during installation and updates option is selected on the Repositories panel in your Installation Manager preferences. For more information on using service repositories with Installation Manager, read the IBM Installation Manager v1.5 Information Center. Note: For information on installing and removing fix packs for WAS offerings on distributed operating systems using the Installation Manager command line, read the following articles in this information center:

  1. Start Installation Manager.

  2. Click Update.

    If we are prompted to authenticate, use the IBM ID and password that we use to access protected IBM software websites.

  3. Select the package group to update.

    If we select Update all, Installation Manager will search all of the added and predefined repositories for updates to all of the package groups that it has installed. Use this feature only if we have full control over which fixes are contained in the targeted repositories. If we create and point to a set of custom repositories that include only the specific fixes to install, you should be able to use this feature confidently. If we perform one of the following procedures, however, you might not want to select the Update all option:

    • Enable Installation Manager to search service repositories
    • Install fixes directly from other live web-based repositories

    If we do not select the Update all option, we can select only the fixes to install for each offering on subsequent panels.

  4. Click Next.

  5. Select the version to which to update under Web Server Plug-ins for IBM WAS.

  6. Click Next.
  7. Accept the terms in the license agreements, and click Next.
  8. Review the summary information, and click Update.

    • If the installation is successful, the program displays a message indicating that installation is successful.

    • If the installation is not successful, click View Log File to troubleshoot the problem.

  9. Click Finish.

  10. Click File > Exit to close Installation Manager.
