vFabric tc Server Developer Edition 2.5.1.RELEASE fail to start

[staleks]

Hi,

I have a problem with starting tcServer.

I am attaching you here steps to reproduce my problem:

1. created instance of tomcat 6, using insight as template and port 9090

D:\tcServer>tcruntime-instance.bat create tomcat6 --version 6.0.32.C.RELEASE --property bio.http.port=9090 -t insight

2. Installed this as service:

D:\tcServer>tcruntime-ctl.bat tomcat6 install

3. started service

and got error

Here is the wrapper log:

Other valuable information follows:

OS: Win 7 - 64-bit based

D:\tcServer>java -version
java version "1.6.0_27"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_27-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.2-b06, mixed mode)

Any help would be appreciated.


Thanx

It looks to me like java isn't on the PATH of the user that's running the service. How have you got your system's environment set up?

Hi Andy

I am attaching you system variables that has been set on my Win7 64bit machine.

I am wondering, if you were right, that java is not on path, command java -version would not run either, right ?

Thanks

There are two PATHs here: one for your user, and one for the user that's running the tc Server service. The fact that java -version works fine on the command line tells us that the PATH's configured correctly for your user. It doesn't tell us anything about the PATH for the user that'll run the service.

Probably the easiest thing to do is to configure the PATH in the System variable section to add Java to it. That'll then apply to all users on your machine.

Ah,

thanks. I'll give it a try and get back with results.

Anyway thanks for your help.

Thank you Andy,

it finally worked

Great stuff. Thanks for letting us know.

I have the exact issue:
C:\Projects\tcbpm\visitor-instance\bin>tcruntime-ctl.bat start
Derived instance name: visitor-instance
Starting instance at C:\Projects\tcbpm\visitor-instance
wrapper | Starting the VMware vFabric tc Runtime instance - tcruntime-C-Project
s-tcbpm-visitor-instance service...
wrapper | Waiting to start...
wrapper | Waiting to start...
wrapper | Waiting to start...
wrapper | The VMware vFabric tc Runtime instance - tcruntime-C-Projects-tcbpm-v
isitor-instance service was launched, but failed to start.

I can run Java without any issue

C:\Projects\tcbpm\visitor-instance\bin>java -version
java version "1.7.0_06"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_06-b24)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 23.2-b09, mixed mode, sharing)

Any clue what might be wrong?

Thanks, Hua

Thank you Andy,

it finally worked
