Diagnosing a failing ANT configuration script

 

This topic helps you determine whether a product installation problem on an operating system such as AIX or Linux is caused by a failing ANT configuration script.

Start diagnosing installation problems by looking at the troubleshooting procedure. See Troubleshooting installation. After the installation completes successfully, several ANT scripts configure the product. This topic describes what to do when an ANT script fails.

If you are looking for troubleshooting information for the Web server plug-ins for WebSphere Application Server, see Troubleshooting Web server plug-ins installation and removal. This topic does not describe the plug-ins.

Use this topic when the installation log does not indicate a failure, to correct any problems with failing ANT configuration scripts.

 

Overview
