Possibly outdated!

This article is possibly outdated. It mentions an older version of a software or tool. I haven't checked if the links are still working!

IBM sold their collaboration tools portfolio to HCL Software in 2019, so the product names changed and most of the IBM links are no longer working.

Finally i managed to install Connections 3 on Ubuntu Server, but i didn’t got a one machine setup running.

My idea was a demo install for testing issues. I can’t find DB2 32-Bit for Linux, so i decided to use Ubuntu 64 Bit and all other components 64 Bit. I got error after enabling ssl on IHS, because the ssl Plugin wasn’t found.
I think that the .so file is 32 bit and can’t work with 64 bit Linux.

So i make a two machine setup.

One 64 bit ubuntu vm with db2 9.7 and tdi 7 64 bit

Other machine is 32 bit and host Websphere Application Server, IHS and Connections

And again. To be continued …

I work at Vegard IT GmbH as a senior consultant with a focus on collaboration software, Kubernetes, security and automation. I mainly deal with HCL Connections, WebSphere Application Server, Kubernetes, Ansible, Terraform and Linux.

Sometimes my daily work results in technical talks and blog articles, which you can follow here more or less regularly. You can find the presentations in the main menu under public speaking .

I created a list of tools I use regularly, most of which have been released under an open source license.

In my spare time I read a lot, test all kinds of technical software and gadgets and try to follow about 200 RSS feeds.
Here you can find a collection of them.
