Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream; - nested throwable: (j

[potatoinmiri]

Dear friends,

   I encountered the following error when I started alfresco:


ERROR [Tomcat5] Problem in init
java.io.EOFException: Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream

ERROR [MainDeployer] Could not initialise deployment:
file:/opt/alfresco/jboss/server/default/deploy/alfresco.war
org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream; - nested throwable: (java.io.EOFException: Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream)

Is it because I have nothing in the alfresco database table?
thanks for taking time assisting!

It sounds like the WAR file has been corrupted somehow. How did you get the  WAR file, via the JBoss bundle, the WAR bundle or did you build from the source bundle?

Try opening the WAR file in the OS to verify that it can indeed open.

Hi Gavinc,

thanks for your help, I used the alfresco-jboss bundle. Before I successfully configured it. Somehow I thin I accidentally deleted the user space and cannot log in again. so I redo everything again. this time this error comes out.

I deleted the original alfresco folder and re-tar again, starting from scratch again but still cannot work. can it be something corrupted in my javasdk1.5?

thanks a lot for your assistance,

It could be some old temporary files left around in JBoss.

Try removing the following folders from JBoss and re-starting JBoss:

<jboss>/server/default/tmp
<jboss>/server/default/work

Did you manage to successfully open the WAR file from the OS, this will help prove whether the file is corrupt?
