If you are about to install IBM Connections 5.5 you definitely need this guide, written by the excellent Charlie Price of IBM.

Is in the “Socially Integrated” community on IBM DeveloperWorks.
I installed the required fixes ( 5.5.0.0-IC-Multi-IFLO87330, 5.5.0.0-IC-News-IFLO87487, 5.5.0.0-IC-Common-IFLO87469, 5.5.0.0-IC-Multi-UPDI-20151224 ) in my Connections 5.5 installation.
