I performed the steps suggested in the README file but am
no getting the following message when I run " ./wserver -c
/tmp/tmeCDROM":-

using the interpreter type aix4-r1 as set in your environment.
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /usr/local/Tivoli/install_bundle/bin/aix4-r
1/wserver_gui because of the following errors:
        0509-022 Cannot load library libtas.a[shr.o].
        0509-026 System error: A file or directory in
        the path name does not exi
st.

Does anyone know what filesets/patches I may need to install to
satisfy this requirement?
