IBM Installation Manager 1.4.3 on RedHat 6.2 64bit

Ok, guys, this took me quite some time to figure out.

So, if you are installing WebSphere Express 8.0, you need to install IBM Installation Manager (IIM)  first.

Now, the thing is, if you are installing IIM on Linux 64bit, it will not work immediately.

The reason is that IIM is 32bit and thus requires 32bit libraries which is not installed by default.

You need to install the following:

[root@localhost]# yum install gtk2.i686
[root@localhost]# yum install libXtst.i686If you received the the missing libstdc++ message above, install the libstdc++ library:

[root@localhost]# yum install compat-libstdc++

Also, the logs are in the configuration subdirectory (if you want to see the errors during installation).
