In Response To: RE: IDS 10.00.UC3 on RHEL4 - mixed success (Patrick McDonough)

Hi,

the dependencies on specific Java versions are a known
problem. Therefore on Linux you can install the product
without using the Java-dependent "installserver" utility,
basically using "rpm" dirdctly.

For a more detailed description please go to this URL:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/ids9help/index.jsp
and search for tokens "IDS install linux rpm" ...

Regards,
Martin
