AmAgent: ERROR: Installation failed....corrupted state.

Question

The environment in which we are installing the agents is:
Agent: J2EE Policy Agent ver. 2.2 update 5
Application Server: Sun Application version. 8.1
Application: Identity Manager 7.0
Java JRE: SDK 1.5.0_04
Operating System: Solaris-sparc
during the "agentadmin --install" execution, after providing the domain1/config and the server instance name, I get the following message. there is seems to be inconsistant config (in domain1/config??). I need pointer as to where agentadmin is looking so that I can proceed further in troubleshooting and resolving this issue.
*** ERROR: Installation failed due to the following error - (The agent
installation state for this Application Server is in corrupted state.
Unable to retrieve the agent state.).
Any pointers appreciated.

Answer 1

Just by a STAT() on domain1/config and the absence of .AmAgentLocator file, it has decided that the installation is corrupted.
Can any one make sense out of this?
The "\n" is the return is the response on the standard input on the question of the server instance name (defaults to "server")
