Follow the next steps '''carefully''' for install IBM Websphere Portal Server 6.1 for Linux

== Hardware ==
'''Have at least 2 GB of RAM for installation'''

In my installation, i had problems when my Virtual Machine (VM) has only 1 GB of memory, with more memory the install happens without problems. In the installation process the Wizard start and stop WAS/WPS many times, so enough memory is a pre-req.

== Installing requireds RPM packages ==

Install the following RPM packages in you Linux OS:

- compat-libstdc++-33
- compat-libstdc++-296
- libXp

if you are using yum, make as follow:

> '''yum -y install compat-libstdc++-33 compat-libstdc++-296 libXp'''

== Setting the hostname as FQDN ==

Check that the hostname is full hostname (Full Qualified Domain Name).

Example: wps1.mycompany.com

Another Example:

> cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.15 wps1.mycompany.com wps1

== (Optional) Updating the /etc/issue file - Only for CentOS ==

InstallShield checks for Operation System installed to know for it's compatibility or not.
We can avoid/mask this check change the '''/etc/issue''' file. So the same thinks this OS is a trully Red Hat Enterprise

The original is the following one:

CentOS release 5 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m

Update to:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 1)
Kernel \r on an \m

Logoff and Logon again.
