Installation of second instance on IBM i

I tried to install the second instance on IBMi and the installation failed. I was unable to uninstall the failed instance as per the steps in documentataion section. I've attached the joblog of the installation error. My second instance name was DEVPJS.
After that, I am now unable to use the commands e.g. PJSMYIP, PJSCRTPRXY etc with the message saying "library PJSDIST not found"

Any suggestion on next steps?

Hello Akumar1

Thank you for writing in, and we are sorry to hear you are experiencing these issues with profound.js. Could you please provide some additional information on how you installed your second instance? Could you tell us what was entered for the installation parameters like the port number, the profound.js connector library name, and the server instance name? Some of these parameters need to be unique to each server, and attempting to install using the same parameters, even though the installation is running in a different directory, will cause issues during the installation.

Thanks Kyle for pointing me in the right direction.
For other folks watching this issue, here's what resolved the issue
The profile used for installing profoundjs should have *ALLOBJ and *SECADM.
