Additional information: 3
Cause
This issue occurs if there is an @ in the installation directory defined by $AVEKSA_HOME. For example:
/home/oracle/A@veksa
Starting in RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle 7.2.0, the AVEKSA_HOME installation directory may be defined as some value other than /home/oracle which allows the possibility that the installation directory could contain an @ symbol.
Resolution
The resolution is to disallow the @ sign and other special characters such as a space in the installation directory name when performing an installation.
