Trying to initialize Adminclient

Hi all,
I have installed Websphere App Server 4.0 Advanced Edition and the fixpack5 on a Linux Red Hat 7.2
I run the adminserver.sh. In the first time some exceptions occur because of the plugin generator. In the second appears the message:
60be901d Server A WSVR0023I: Server __adminServer open for e-business
When I run adminclient.sh localhost 900, I get the message:
Error: ADGU2008E: The Administration client failed to connect to the Administration Server. PLease verify the local or remote Administration server host and port....
and in the log /opt/WebSphere/AppServer/logs/adminclient_audit_messages.log
I get:
[7/24/03 9:20:05:852 GMT-03:00] 7890ed92 RepositoryCli W ADGU1045E: Caught exception while getting initial context:javax.naming.NamingException: Failed to initialize the ORB [Root exception is org.omg.CORBA.INITIALIZE: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/ibm/rmi/iiop/GIOPVersionException

Any ideas?

I have uninstalled the fixpack5 and then I started the adminserver... now, when I start the adminclient it works!!
The problem is in the fixpack5 installation.. I looked for errors in JDK update but it seems to occur normally.
Could someone help me, please?
Thanks in advance,
Fernanda

Fernanda, WebSphere's adminclient is a very fragile piece of software. I would suggest thatyou move to WebSphere V5 as quickly as possible. The web-based administration is V5 is much easier to work with.

Joe,
Thank you for your suggestion.
Im working on a Websphere Portal Project.
To install WebSphere Portal Server 4.2.1 I need to use Web App Server 4.0.5.
Its an IBM restriction.
In my machine I have installed the Portal Server before and this error never happened. NOw, when Im in a machine's costummer I get this error after installing the fixpack. Very weird, doesn't?
I downloaded the fixpack again and now I will try to install.. hope this time it works!
Fernanda.

It didn't work
Same error message..
