During deployment of services from installed IGA Xpress CA Directory can't be installed.

Error:

Environment

IGA Xpress v15 fixpack 4 and below.

Cause

CA Directory installer provided with IGA Xpress does not use custom tmp folder provided during IGA XPress installation path with tempdir=<my_temp_dir>

/tmp directory in Linux system has noexec flag enabled.

 

Resolution

Issue will be resolved in Fixpack 5.

Workaround for the issue till fixpack 5 is released is to remove noexec flag from /tmp folder during installation deployments and upgrades of CA Directory.

You may set noexec flag back after process is done.
