===================================================================================  
The launchpad is a HTML based utility that can assist with the planning and   
installation of the products contained in your WebSphere Application Server package.   

The launchpad contains:  
o Overviews of the products contained in your WebSphere Application Server package   
o Recommended installation diagrams   
o Links to the product installation wizards and product documentation   

Because the launchpad is a HTML based utility, it requires a Web browser to run.   
The launchpad supports the following browsers:  
o Mozilla  
o Firefox  
o Internet Explorer (Microsoft Windows platforms only)  

The launchpad is not necessary for installing any of the products.   

You can install any of the products by running the install or setup command   
from the product directory located on the product CD or DVD.   

The installation diagrams are available in the readme documents located   
on the product CD or DVD, and in the online information center.

Procedure for correcting the error that is preventing the launchpad from displaying   
===================================================================================   

Use the following procedure to attempt to correct the error that is preventing   
the launchpad from displaying and to try to start the launchpad again:   
 1 . If you do not have a supported Web browser, download and install one.   
If you have not upgraded your Web browser recently, upgrade to the latest version.   
The latest Microsoft Internet Explorer Web browser can be downloaded from   
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/   
The latest Mozilla Firefox Web browser can be downloaded from   
http://www.mozilla.com   
On Linux and UNIX platforms, export the location of the supported browser.   
For example:   
export BROWSER=/usr/bin/mozilla  
 2 . If the product CD or DVD is no longer accessible, insert the disk into disk drive. 
Mount the drive on Linux and UNIX platforms, if necessary.  
 3 . Restart the launchpad by issuing the following command:   
Linux and UNIX platforms: ./launchpad.sh  
Windows platforms: launchpad.exe
