Installing WebSphere Commerce Developer interim fixes
WebSphere Commerce Developer interim fixes and cumulative interim fixes can be installed with the WebSphere Commerce Update Installer (UPDI).
Attention: IBM is aware that
some interim fixes that were released for Feature Pack 5, Fix Pack 6, and Fix Pack 7 might cause
issues when you install the fixes individually. As a result, IBM bundled the interim fixes and
released the following cumulative interim fixes:
- For Feature Pack 5 (JR53048.fep)
- For Fix Pack 6 (JR53048.fp)
- For Fix Pack 7 (JR53048.fp)
Each individual iFix and cumulative iFix package contains a different
readme file. Each readme file might include specific
installation instructions. For example:
- Some iFixes might require manual modifications to source code after you install the fix
- For runtime environments, some iFixes might be applicable to the base WebSphere Commerce product only and not the instance.
About this task
Note: A
WebSphere Commerce cumulative interim fix is composed of every individual interim fix available up
to the date that the cumulative interim fix is created. The following information applies to
cumulative interim fixes:
You can install interim fixes using the Update Installer (UPDI) graphical interface or
silently using a response file. Both installation methods require the following steps before you can
install in interim fix.- You do not need to uninstall any previously installed interim fixes to apply a cumulative fix.
- Any interim fixes that are released after a cumulative interim fix require the latest cumulative fix as a prerequisite.
- Each cumulative fix contains all of the fixes from any previous cumulative fixes. Therefore, you can install the latest cumulative fix without installing earlier ones.
