Q&A

hi

I am new to bonita bpm and downloaded the bonita bpm, community v7.0.2 and installed successfully.

However, when I am trying to open the Portal, I get following error msg .

"Starting TomCat v7 server at localhost has encountered a problem " - refer the screenshot below.

Look forward for a solution to over come this, tried removing and re-installing , changing the port from the preferences, but still not luck.

I suspect you have another Tomcat running on the same computer.

Anybody have a solution for this matter?

Hi thanks for responding.

I checked, and i do not have another tomcat running on. Then tried with xamp , and wamp with tomcat installed and switched on . still no luck.

System is windows 8.1 , 64 Bit version

Hi,

I think I have the same problem but on linux.
I’m also new and I want to try Bonita BPM, so I download BonitaBPMCommunity-7.0.3-x86_64.run for a CentOS 7.1 VM and launch the installer. It was OK but when it ran Bonita BPM, I got few seconds latter the message : “Server Tomcat v7.0 Server at localhost failed to start.”

I noticed that BonitaBPMCommunity-7.0.3/workspace/tomcat/bin/*.sh didn’t have execution rights. I made the chmod, but still the same message.
When I run $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh (after export of $CATALINA_HOME et $JRE_HOME; by the way, the BonitaBPMCommunity-7.0.3/workspace/tomcat/RUNNING.txt seems to be not very up to date), the process stops. In BonitaBPMCommunity-7.0.3/workspace/tomcat/logs/catalina.out, I got the error :
java.lang.RuntimeException: org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLException: IO Exception: “java.net.UnknownHostException: localhost.localdomain: localhost.localdomain: Name or service not known” [90028-170]

And now, I don’t know what to do. Someone could help us ?
Thank you

For the last problem, I had to update /etc/hosts (I knew that I have already have the problem once and I didn’t remember how I solve it). So now, after a restart of my VM, it’s working. Great !
(and it was not useful to declare $CATALINA_HOME et $JRE_HOME). So it seems that only the excutive rights were missing on $CATALINA_HOME/bin/.
