<p>I am trying to create a StringNameSpaceBinding using the wsadmin tool of Websphere 6.1</p>

<p>Here are the steps i take
set cell [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:cell/]
$AdminConfig create StringNameSpaceBinding $cell { {name bindname}  {nameInNameSpace Bindings/string} {stringToBind "This is the String value that gets bound"} }</p>

<p>But when i run this last step i get an error like this:
WASX7015E: Exception running command: "$AdminConfig create StringNameSpaceBinding $cell { {name bindname}  {nameInNameSpace Bindings/string} {stringToBind "This is the String value that gets bound"} }"; exception information:
 com.ibm.ws.scripting.ScriptingException: WASX7444E: Invalid parameter value "" for parameter "parent config id" on command "create"</p>

<p>Any idea what could be up with this?</p>

<p>Thanks
Damien</p>

I'm betting that the following command:
```
```
set cell [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:cell/]
```
```
Doesn't work. Most likely,
```
cell
```
is not the name of your cell.
You don't need to specify a cell name; there's only one cell in the WAS topology. I would change this to:
```
```
set cell [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:/]
```
```
Good luck.
