Where is IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-10.0.x86_64.rpm?

Hi,

New to linux, slowly building first SAP servers on RHEL 5.2.

As par SAP Note 1048303 the Java version to install on the machine is supposed to be IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-10.0.x86_64.rpm.

Problem is IBM Web Site now only lists IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-12.0.x86_64.rpm, that is SR12 and not SR10. The page IBM Java for ISV:

https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/reg/download.do?lang=en_US&source=swg-ibmjavaisv&S_TAC...

Now only lists SR12

Link in SAP Note 1172419:

https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/reg/download.do?source=lxdk&; S_PKG=amd64142sr10&S_TACT=105AGX05&S_CMP=JDK&lang=en_US&cp=UTF-8

is now a dead link.

I tried to install with SR12 anyway, but I am facing issues with the unrestricted.zip JCE Unlimited Strength file, complaining about the unrestricted policies to be signed by an invalid trusted signer.

I got my unrestricted.zip file per SAP Note 739043 - How to Check for Full Strength Jurisdiction Policies.

So, either an unrestricted.zip that goes with SR12, or where can I get Linux AMD_64 SR10 version?

Thanks,

JP

You are using the wrong one. That one mentioned in the note is for the SUN JDK, you need to use the one for the IBM package. The links is provided in SAPINST.

I shall disagree with your comment.

From note 739043:

Here the URL of the IBM download site, for SDK 1.4:

https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/preLogin.do?source=jcesdk

Please select=> Unrestricted JCE Policy files for SDK 1.4.2 and download file "unrestricted.zip" which contains 2 files:

local_policy.jar, US_export_policy.jar

And I finally found my error. The unrestricted.zip file I had was from an 1.4.2-09 Java version we used earlier with a RHEL 4.0 installation.

Downloading the latest unrestricted.zip file one from IBM site did the trick.

At last, concerning the missing IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-10.0.x86_64, well I just used the current version from IBM web site (IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-12.0.x86_64) and installation went fine and the system is working properly now.

Thanks. Solved.
