QuestionQ8

Troubleshoot post-installation

A new application-server profile called profile1 was created with the manageprofiles command. Profile creation failed with this error:

> INSTCONFFAILED: The profile could not be created

No other WebSphere processes were running on the machine. Review of app_server_root/logs/manageprofiles/profile1_create.log shows this error:

> com.ibm.wsspi.profile.WSProfileException: Another profile1 process is running or a lock file exists.

Which WebSphere Application Server ND file must be deleted to resolve the error?

Explanation

A failed or interrupted profile-creation operation can leave the profile-registry lock behind. When no profile-creation process is active, deleting app_server_root/properties/profileRegistry.xml_LOCK clears the stale lock that prevents manageprofiles from creating the profile.
