topic alf_start closes when starting alfresco. in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/alf-start-closes-when-starting-alfresco/m-p/216180#M169310 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hey all,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>i've installed alfresco (standard installation) and when installing it said the db port was in use so i put in 3308 and it seemed to like it.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>after the installation i ran the alf_start.bat and it runs through the two command prompts and then closes them both without starting up.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>it's probably worth mentioning i also have Jira installed on this machine and it's running on tomcat too - but i believe jira is running on its own tomcat installation.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>couldn't see an option to attach a file so here's my log file</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>———————</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>15:36:37,730 INFO&nbsp; [org.alfresco.config.JndiPropertiesFactoryBean] Loading properties file
