I'm trying to install the ISC on a Windows 2003 server. The install goes to
about 15% when it dies. Searching through all the log files (that are
scattered all over the place!) I finally came on PortalBasicConfig.log and
this error:



  [wsadmin] WASX7318E: Received exception while declaring AdminControl;
exception information: com.ibm.ws.scripting.ScriptingException:
java.lang.NullPointerException



I searched on the IBM site for the WASX7318E message and found a couple
issues regarding firewalls installed on the box. This is a plain Win2003
server, but I did go in and uninstall the IE enhanced security "option". The
install still fails with this same message.



I've installed the ISC on several boxes.AIX..Win2k..as well as Win2003 with
no problems.until yesterday and this error. I have a PMR open with Tivoli
support that is being escalated.



Anyone seen this while installing the ISC before?? Doesn't look like it's
gotten too far.no services have been installed.no processes are running.



TIA,



Bill Boyer
