FreeKB - Resolve "CRIMA1161E Failed to find required installation files" in WebSphere

CRIMA1161E usually occurs when attempting to install IBM software using IBMs Installation Manager. You first want to ensure that the software you are attempting to install exists in the repository. This can be done using the listAvailablePackages command of IBM Installation Manager command line tool.

~]# /opt/IBM/InstallationManager/eclipse/tools/imcl listAvailablePackages 
    -repositories http://www.ibm.com/software/repositorymanager/com.ibm.websphere.BASE.v90 
    -prompt

In this example, BASE and ND (Network Deployment Manager) are listed. In this example, you would be able to install BASE, because the original version of BASE (9.0.0) is included in the repository. However, you wouldn't be able to install ND, because the original version of ND (9.0.0) is not listed.

The solution to this issue would be to use the http://www.ibm.com/software/repositorymanager/com.ibm.websphere.ND.v90 repository to be able to install ND.

com.ibm.websphere.BASE.9.0.0
com.ibm.websphere.BASE.9.0.1
com.ibm.websphere.BASE.9.0.2
com.ibm.websphere.BASE.9.0.3
com.ibm.websphere.BASE.9.0.4

com.ibm.websphere.ND.9.0.3
