It appears that the python script for getting the MBeans from Websphere is missing the wsadmincommands.conf file.

See my error:

The WAS App requires you to run configure it via the setup page when it is first installed. You can also re-run the setup from the manager page. Did you run the GUI setup? Can you provide some repro steps?

Same here. Looks like there's missing wsadminCommands.conf in the app!
