Error creating JSP provider channel with desktop channel wizard in SP2

To isolate the problem to see if it is a channel wizard problem or an ipsadmin

issue, take a sample xml provided in the samples directory do a simple ipadmin

-import xmlfilename. If the import goes through successfully then the problem is

due to ipsadmin not being able to import channels. In that case you can try this

go to the ipsadmin script present in /install_dir/SUNWips/bin

look for the line

${JAVA_HOME}/bin/java -classpath ${CLASSPATH}

com.iplanet.portalserver.ipsadmin.ImportComponent $*

change it to

${JAVA_HOME}/bin/java -ms32m -mx256m -classpath ${CLASSPATH}

com.iplanet.portalserver.ipsadmin.ImportComponent $*

You may wanna run top and look at the size of your slapd process, we have had an

ldap server memory leak with sp2 and this issue was fixed in sp3.
