Troubleshoot: Checking that a WebSphere Commerce feature is enabled on your instance

After installing a feature pack, you can enable any one of its features. You enable one of the features on a WebSphere Commerce instance and want to ensure the enablement is successful.

 

Problem

After enabling a WebSphere Commerce feature you want to verify that it is enabled on your instance.

 

Solution

To verify if a feature is enabled on your WebSphere Commerce instance...

  1. I5/OS: Start a QShell session using the STRQSH command.

  2. From a command prompt run the following command:

    • AIX|Linux|Solaris|WC_installdir/bin/versionInfo.sh WC_installdir/instances/instance

    • I5/OS: WC_installdir/bin/versionInfo.sh WC_userdir/instances/instance

    • Windows:

      WC_installdir/bin/versionInfo.bat WC_installdir/instances/instance

    • WCDE_installdir/bin/versionInfo.bat

      where instance is the name of the WebSphere Commerce instance which has a feature enabled

      This command is only available for WebSphere Commerce v6 with fix pack 1 or higher installed.

  3. Run this command produces an output that includes the product information. For example:

    • WebSphere Commerce Feature Pack 1: 
      Installed Product
------------------------------------------------
                
Name                    IBM WebSphere Commerce
V                1.0.0.0
ID                      wc.fep1
Build Level             xxxxxxx
Build Date              xx/xx/xx

    • WebSphere Commerce Feature Pack 2: 
      Installed Product
------------------------------------------------
                
Name                    IBM WebSphere Commerce Feature Pack 2
V                1.0.0.0
ID                      wc.fep2
Build Level             xxxxxxx
Build Date              xx/xx/xx

    • WebSphere Commerce Feature Pack 3: 
      Installed Product
------------------------------------------------
                
Name                    IBM WebSphere Commerce Feature Pack 3
V                3.0.0.0
ID                      wc.fep3
Build Level             xxxxxxx
Build Date              xx/xx/xx

    • WebSphere Commerce Feature Pack 3.0.1: 

      Installed Product
------------------------------------------------
                
Name                    IBM WebSphere Commerce Feature Pack 3
V                3.0.1.0
ID                      wc.fep301
Build Level             xxxxxxx
Build Date              xx/xx/xx

    If you have not enabled a WebSphere Commerce feature on your instance, an output similar to the following is displayed: 

    Installed Product
------------------------------------------------
Name                    IBM WebSphere Commerce
V                6.0.0.Z
ID                      wc.server.YY
Build Level             xxxxxxxxx 
Build Date              xx/xx/xx

    Where Z is the fix pack number that you have installed and YY is the edition of WebSphere Commerce.

  4. To determine which specific feature(s) is enabled on your instance, complete the following steps:

    1. Navigate to the following directory:

    2. For every feature that is enabled, the following file exists:

      • feature_name.server.60.component

      • feature_name.toolkit.60.component

      where feature_name is the name of the WebSphere Commerce feature. For example, component-services is a WebSphere Commerce feature.
