WAS launched but failed initialization

[ray.wurlod]

Search for "enabled" within security.xml. It was the first occurrence of "enabled" in the Windows security.xml file; I can not guarantee that this will be the case for AIX, so check that the line looks something like what I described.

Followed your instructions, Worked great.

xmlns:security="http://www.ibm.com/websphere/appserver/ ... curity.xmi" xmi:id="Security_1" useLocalSecurityServer="true" useDomainQualifiedUserNames="false" enabled="false" cacheTimeout="600"

It just hangs at this point. Any advise ?

Thanks!

One of the rules here is: different question ==> start new thread

Your problem is not "WAS launched but failed initialization". That's why a new thread is needed, so as to aid future searchers.
