I'm trying to install the runtime on a CentOS VM to test some ANT build & deployment scripts.
The system did have a bad install of 6.1.0.4 on it.
This was done by someone who just installed the fixpack. Naturally, a whole load of stuff is missing.
I removed the rpm's and all the files plus directories but the installer still says this

Code:

Errors occurred during the installation.
- Unable to install IBM WebSphere Message Broker 6.1 over IBM WebSphere Message
Broker: Installed product has newer version.

Press 2 for Previous, 3 to Cancel or 4 to Redisplay [2]

has anyone seen this before? Or, it is time to scrap the VM and start again?

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions.

The problem has been solved in the following way.

- reinstall the fixpack
- remove the fixpack using the uninstall script (the person who did the original install deleted the _uninst* & bin directories)
- Install the base kit
- apply the fixpack again.

I have recently been assigned to install MB on unix servers and I had same issue on one of the servers.
I followed your suggestions and it worked like a charm...

Thanks for the feedback. It is always nice to know that someone has benefitted from your experiences.
(Especially today as I have 2 tonnes of topsoil to shift and the weather forecast is not that great. steady rain spreading from the S.W. by late morning.)
