Delete the filesets manually since the directory has been deleted. It runs the uninstall from the /usr/WebSphere directory and cannot execute without it (obviously).

Hi

Thanks for the reply .

How to delete the filesets manually ?

Anup

 

[screwloose]

smitty install/software maint and utilities/remove installed software - then select filesets

 

[andysys]

Hi

It's not allowing me to remove it from smitty.
It says goto the directory & run uninstaller.
But the directory has been deleted by user.
Even I tried by copying the directory from another
machine & run uninstaller,but didn't work.



Thanks
Anup
