3.4.c hangs during startup

nobby — Tue, 21 Dec 2010 16:49:39 GMT

Hi everyone,I just installed 3.4.c on Debian.The startup stalls at the following log entry:==> tomcat/logs/catalina.out <==17:23:55,148 Userystem INFO [management.subsystems.ChildApplicationContextFactory] Startup of 'thirdparty' subsystem, ID: [thirdparty, default] complete17:23:55,149 Use

The server may hang because of so many reasons…

start alfresco server & start jconsole and check the memory, threads & cpu utilization ….

check the property in the cache-strategies.properties file

cache.strategy=read-write

I attached the debugger. It looks like the Tomcat main thread hangs here:

Is there any errors in your alfresco.log rather than catalina.out?

And what version of Java are you using?

Is there any errors in your alfresco.log rather than catalina.out?

I have switched from the installer to the WAR installation in Tomcat 7.0.4. The app doesn't seem to generate an alfresco.log file (where can I configure that?), but here is the last chunk of messages in the syslog. Setting the log level to DEBUG didn't seem to show anything more interesting.

BTW, Alfresco has generated the DB tables (worked with MySQL and PostgreSQL) and some directories in alf_data:

contentstore
contentstore.deleted
lucene-indexes

can follow the supported stackes…. it will help much more to resolve this type issuses && raise this issue in jira

I experienced exactly this problem:
Alfresco 3.4d
Windows 64-bit

Scanning through past logs, I determine that the reason has to do with starting Open office because that's what came after the point where it hangs.

True enough, the culprit in my case is a hanging soffice.exe-32 process.
Once I killed the process, and restarted Alfresco, it went all the way to completion and Alfresco is responsive again.

Re: 3.4.c hangs during startup

sunnysharma — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:55:19 GMT

Faced the same problem on:
Red Hat 4.1.2 (64 bit)
Alfresco 3.4d

Killed all the processes related to soffice and it worked.

Hi all. I'm having this same issue and I don't have libre/open offiice enabled.
It just hangs. Top is showing me that the java process (alfresco) is consuming 100% cpu

Re: 3.4.c hangs during startup

g_rathod — Mon, 06 May 2013 10:58:48 GMT

Kindly check port used by openOffice is not consumed by other process, else if will hangup.
