Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server Liberty Profile * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Incorrectly set permissions affect * * the ability to update WebSphere * * Application Server Liberty Profile. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** This fix allows the following behaviour to function. Scenario: - User1 and User2 belong to the same primary group on Linux. - User1 installs Application Server Network Deployment edition V8.5.0.0 with Liberty profile feature using Installation Manager group mode. - User2 attempts updates to the 8.5.0.0 installation to 8.5.0.1 Liberty SU contains chmod metadata which fails to run against files that are not owned by user2 during update operation.
Problem conclusion
The chmod metadata has been removed as it was not required to be attempting to set the permissions. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.0.1.
