Hi, I am trying to setup WebSphere 4.0 (trial) on RedHat Linux 7.2 (Apache 1.3). I downloaded the WebSphere tar ball from http://www6.software.ibm.com/developerworks/offers/linux-speed-start/downlo ad.html I get a message at the start of the install that "The installer was not able to determine that you have a supported Linux distribution". It however let's me go ahead and the install does complete successfully. I opted for the Apache plugin and IBM HTTPD. However, the plugin that it installs is compiled without the EAPI and so I get a message in the log that Apache might crash and it indeed does. I tried applying the eFix for this (PQ59241) but the eFix throws a Java exception and the log provides no information 2002/11/14 01:30:27 2002/11/14 01:30:27 Please view the activity log for details.
