demo.start script stuck

[littlechameleon]

PROBLEM UPDATED, JUMP TO POST #3 PLEASE

Hello Community!

I'm just getting started with Activiti as I saw many different implementations of it, I thought I'd give it a try.

Here's my setup:

PC: Core i5 650 (with Intel grahics), 4Gb RAM, Intel SSD X-25M

OS: OpenSUSE 12.1 (latest ditribution) x86_64

Software: ant 1.8.2-26.1, tomcat 6 + 7, eclipse IDE 3.4 –> all from official OSS repro noarch

I see that my version of eclipse ist not 3.6 as recommended.

When I fire up a terminal and launch the 'ant demo.start' script, it gest stuck after a few lines. The following is all that it does:

Buildfile: /home/username/bin/activiti-5.8/setup/build.xml

demo.install:

Can someone help and tell why it's not getting any further? I tried that script with both USER and ROOT priviledge, same behavior…

Hi,

I've gotten a little further!

In fact my variables JAVA_HOME and ANT_HOME were not set. Once exported to the right PATH the H2 and Tomcat6 Servers were able to start.

Now I got another error:

tomcat.start:

Can someone tell me what this java.io.exception means and why it occures?

[littlechameleon]

I'm discussing with myself here, but helps anyway.

Fond this threat: http://forums.activiti.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1058&start=0

And therefore did a chmod on the files catalina.sh, startup.sh and shutdown.sh

it still won't work:

any help?

[lisama]

Well did you make sure that there is nothing else running that requires the port 9092? Maybe another instance of the h2 database that wasn't terminated correctly?

[littlechameleon]

Well, I hope there's nothing else using that port. The tests I did here are always just right after booting computer. I assume it's all idle before I start…

[lisama]

To be sure try opening a console/terminal and type in

netstat | grep 9092

[littlechameleon]

Thank you for your answeres LisaMa and my appologies for late feedback.

In the meantime I changed the linux distribution. I left Suse for Linux Mint 12. Now everything works out of the box. On Mint everything is allready exiting (ant, tomcat, root rights for applications, etc…).

This topic can be closed.
