Server not starting up

Classic Servoy
1

I can’t get Servoy server to start up on 3.0. Is this a known problem?

2

I have been told to add a third parameter in the wrapper.conf file like this:

# Java Additional Parameters
wrapper.java.additional.1=-Djava.awt.headless=true
wrapper.java.additional.2=-Duser.dir="C:\Program Files\Agency Anywhere"
wrapper.java.additional.3=-Djava.security.policy="./server/conf/catalina.policy"

However, it is still not working for me. Please let me know if it works for you.

The last line is only needed when you use java 1.4 on the server.

I have Servoy 3.0 up &running on one of our servers.
Can you tell me what the errors are?
what’s in your log-file?

btw: we first made a mistake by installing the 3.0 version over en excisting 2.2 version. This is nog allowed! Install it clean!

Looks like it may be a mac thing. Got a fresh install working on a PC no problems.

Here’s the error:

[main] - startElement(,Server)
[main] - Pushing body text ‘’
[main] - New match=‘Server’
[main] - Fire begin() for ObjectCreateRule[className=org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer, attributeName=className]
[main] - [ObjectCreateRule]{Server}New org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer
[main] - Begin event threw error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/naming/TransactionRef
at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer.(StandardServer.java:94)

etc…

which java version are you using?
which platform?
Do you start servoyserver by Services? or by the commandfile?

1/ Mac OS 10.4.3 Server software. (Considering what the 10.4.4 update did to one of my desktops last week I am not about to update it.)

2/ I have the Java preferences set to use Java 5.0. However, typing Java -version in the command line shows Java 1.4.2.

3/ I am using the command line to start Servoy server: “./servoy_server.sh”

oke, if you use java 1.4 you have to add this line:

-Djava.security.policy="./server/conf/catalina.policy"

to your servoy_server.sh

Added the line. Still throwing this error:

[main] - Fire begin() for ObjectCreateRule[className=org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer, attributeName=className]
[main] - [ObjectCreateRule]{Server}New org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer
[main] - Begin event threw error

I see the same thing running Servoy 3.0 as server.
Also when running Developer I can’t access the webserver.
Testing the HttpService in the Preferences of Developer makes the test hang.

Servoy Developer
Version 3.0a13-build 361
Java version 1.4.2-54 (Mac OS X)

Try to use Java 5 by changing the symbolic link pointing to it, the GUI panel doesn’t affect shell applications. I can’t remember the details on the symlink but Google is your friend ;)

Has anybody had any luck with getting server to launch under OS X at all? All suggestions given here have been tried and it still fails at this point:

[main] - startElement(,Server)
[main] - Pushing body text ‘’
[main] - New match=‘Server’
[main] - Fire begin() for ObjectCreateRule[className=org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer, attributeName=className]
[main] - [ObjectCreateRule]{Server}New org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer
[main] - Begin event threw error

the latest alpha (13) running on Java version 1.5.0_05-83 (Mac OS X)
