hi,
we are stuck with a problem
the requirement is JDBC servlets in websphere needs an
env variable called DB2INSTANCE = dbinst
to be set. where ever we set it, websphere is not able to see that.
we tried in httpd, inetd and we cannot set in a shell.
the websphere is spawn as a seperate process and seems to
have no parent child relation and hence doesnt get
that from whereever we set it.
websphere doesnt provide a way by itself to set env vars
before it starts.
we dont know from where this dbinst comes, but its a service in linux
as told by the db2client docs.
moreover i need to set the env var after dbinst becomes valid.
may be we dont know, we havent got any reply from IBM either.
please help us.
