Hi,

I am running WAS 5.1 on an AIX 5.2 machine.  When attempting to start a EJB
Client application connecting to my EJB app, I get an "Unable to read
required resource: implfactory.properties" error message (see stack trace
below).

Checking other similar posts, I have added to my class path the following
JARs and the offending properties file:

WAS_PATH=$WAS_HOME/lib/ecutils.jar
WAS_PATH=$WAS_PATH:$WAS_HOME/lib/naming.jar
WAS_PATH=$WAS_PATH:$WAS_HOME/lib/namingclient.jar
WAS_PATH=$WAS_PATH:$WAS_HOME/lib/wssec.jar
WAS_PATH=$WAS_PATH:$WAS_HOME/lib/lmproxy.jar
WAS_PATH=$WAS_PATH:$WAS_HOME/lib/runtime.jar
WAS_PATH=$WAS_PATH:$WAS_HOME/lib/sas.jar
WAS_PATH=$WAS_PATH:$WAS_HOME/properties/implfactory.properties

Printing the Classpath environment variable immediately before starting the
JVM shows the suggested files listed there.

Are there any other ideas that may be out there that I could try?

Thanks in advance,

Shawn.
