I haven't been able to find a specific answer to what could be causing this issue though I am hoping it is something quite simple.
Issue.
I have installed version 10.0.0.Final from the Wildfly website and extracted into C:\Program Files\wildfly-10.0.0.Final.
I then navigate to C:\Program Files\wildfly-10.0.0.Final\bin directory via windows command prompt and execute the standalone.bat command.
Wildfly doesn't start and I get the following exception:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Failed to instantiate class "org.jboss.logmanager.handlers.PeriodicRotatingFileHandler" for handler "FILE"
If anyone has encountered this error message before, then your guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Ben
The error appears to be a result of either file permissions on the JBoss home directory, lack of space available, or a missing directory.
Relevant posts include:
Starting WildFly 8.2 under a user with limited permissions
Which suggests setting the JBOSS_BASE_DIR property to the root folder of the JBoss installation.
https://github.com/jboss-dockerfiles/wildfly/issues/24
Suggests this can occur if the root folder does not have enough space allocated for the user (typically running in Unix environments).
Error in starting Wildfly 8.0 server with JDK 1.8
The logs/boot.log didn't exist. The author manually created the file which then revealed a permission issue on the log file (more likely on the entire Jboss installation folder).
The issue was caused due to the command prompt. As I am using windows 10, I needed to be using Command Prompt (Admin),rather than just the normal cmd hence the permission issues alluded to previously by pczeus.
After using Command Prompt (Admin), I was able to start the server.
I am trying to start weblogic server in eclipse but I get error like \IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearQuest\cqjni.jar was unexpected at this time.I found out that this is causing because of System PATH environment variable contains entry of it.I don't have administrative rights (Windows 7) so i can't modify system PATH variable.I have defined user defined PATH varible but it is getting appended to system PATH variable.
So how can I use only user defined PATH variable or modify weblogic script to use user defined PATH variable?or any other solution?
Any help would be appreciated.
I also faced the same issue. But I was able to resolve this issue by doing the below steps.
Check for the CLASSPATH variable value in Windows7 using echo %CLASSPATH% from command prompt.
Check if the CLASSPATH shows the below path
C:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearQuest\cqjni.jar
If Yes, then open the below 2 files in edit mode from the path(Weblogic server)C:\Bea\Middleware\user_projects\domains\XXXX\bin
3.1 startWebLogic.cmd
3.2 setDomainEnv.cmd
and set the CLASSPATH manually removing the C:\Program Files\IBM\RationalSDLC\ClearQuest\cqjni.jar
Start the server, you would be able to start the server then.

I am installing Tomcat 7 in my PC it works in Eclipse but when I try to open in bin/ tomcat7.exe it just open and closes, (I am stopping the server in Eclipse). Also, in Eclipse I'am trying to open admin console like URL:(localhost:1234/admin) it shows 404 error. Can anyone who knows this problem explain a solution?
If you are using Windows, you can follow the following to run tomcat7.exe :
Open your Command prompt (cmd)
Set your JAVA_HOME or JRE_HOME. Eg. set JRE_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jre7
Go to the directory of your tomcat. Eg. cd C:\Program Files\apache-tomcat-7.0.35\bin
Run startup.bat file. Eg. startup.
This should start your tomcat server without using Eclipse.
First Set JAVA_HOME and CLASSPath path
For Windows Java Path Settings
Right click on Computer and open Properties.
In Windows Vista or Windows 7, go to Advanced System Settings.
Else go to next step. Go to Advanced Tab and click on Environment
Variables button.
Select CLASSPath under the list of System Variables, and press Edit and add If CLASSPath not available there click New button add
C:\Program Files\java\jre 1.x.x_xx\bin
after a semicolon.
Now click on New' button under system variables and enter
JAVA_HOME as variable name and path to jdk home directory (ex.
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.x.x_xx
After Completing Java Path Settings
Go to the directory of your Tomcat. Eg. cd C:\Program
Files\apache-tomcat-7.0.35\bin
Run startup.bat file
To start your application server in Windows :
Open command prompt .(Run as Administrator).
Go to the path (..\apache-tomcat-8.0.27\bin) and run startup.bat
A new command prompt opens up and should stay unclosed to tell your server is in running state.
If command prompt opens and closes automatically, then the reason can be as below.
tomcat is already in started state in Eclipse.
Check the connector port configured in server.xml file and check if that port is free in your local machine. [netstat command]
Change the connector port to some unused port, preferably in 80XX series.
Let me know if you are able to invoke localhost:(the http connector port) you have configured in server.xml through you web browser.
You don't start Tomcat by double clicking the exe, use the batch files instead.
startup.bat starts the server, shutdown.bat stops it again.
And ignore the advise to get the service installer. You don't need those unless you want the server to start on system boot and run in the background. Which you don't want unless you're going to configure a production server, which you aren't here.
The batch files are in the same directory on your computer as the exe.
you have to set JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME in System environment.while setting the JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME, you should assure that JRE path that you are setting is corresponding to the JDK whose path you have set in JAVA_HOME. some time what happens that there may be more than one JDK in the system so conflict occurs. better to have only one JDK and corresponding JRE.
This is probably due to a bad setup of an environment variable.
For example, if you setup incorrect JAVA_OPTS, tomcat startup will fail.
You can check your configuration by calling : catalina configtest
Here an example of the output for bad setup of JAVA_OPTS :
Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
It works for me after updating the jdk path in JAVA_HOME compatible to your tomcat version in user Variables.
the JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME environment variables set should not have semicolon or ; at the end...I was facing similar problem...removed semi-colon or ; from the end and tomcat server started from cmd screen after running startup command(of tomcat..bin folder).
I checked environment variables and compiler version everything was fine, deleting junk files from work folder worked for me.
Just download the tomcat 32-bit/64-bit Windows Service Installer (pgp, md5) as in this set up is given which will install tomcat on your PC and you can also start and stop tomcat using the tomcat service.
In my experience tomcat7 might not like it if JAVA_PATH or JDK_PATH contain bracket symbols like in "Program Files (x86)". Make sure you format path in your environmental variables correctly or move your JDK to another folder.
In my case, I had some reference to a jar file in catilana.bat, but the jar I had removed from my system. Tomcat started successfully once I removed that reference from catilana.bat
Check your JRE_HOME location in environment variables. if it didn't work then try
1). Open CMD in administration mode.
2). locate to your tomcat directory.
3). run startup.bat --->> It will show your problem.
Had the same problem with Apache Tomcat 9 version.
Solution is very simple.
Apache Tomcat 9 is supported by Java 8 and later versions. So, I had JRE_HOME with JRE7 path, I binded it to new JRE8 and everything works fine.
Different versions of Apache Tomcat are available for different versions of the Servlet and JSP specifications. The mapping between the specifications and the respective Apache Tomcat versions is:
I have been running a Tomcat 6.0.37 server for quite some time via the startup.bat.Now I want to run tomcat as a service that starts automatically when the machine starts up.
I created the service with the bat : service.bat install.This created the service succesfully.When trying to start it however I get the error in the title.I then tried running just the exe(tomcat6.exe).This gave me the exact same error.
I have checked that CATALINA_HOME,JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME is set correctly.bootstrap.jar does exist in tomcat/bin.Path to the jvm is correct.jvm.dll does exist in jre6/bin/server.
I also found a thread with a different class missing where they said rt.jar was missing from the jre,I checked this and mine exists in jre6/lib/.I really don't have anymore ideas as to what can be wrong.
try to update the service by executing (adapt to your path):
C:\> tomcat6 //US//Tomcat6 --Description="Apache Tomcat Server - http://tomcat.apache.org/ " \
C:\> --Startup=auto --Classpath=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar
US means: update service.
This should fix the classpath.
All the necessary information are in the official website:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/windows-service-howto.html
Recommend using one of the "Java as a Windows Service" frameworks as they handle adding JARs to the classpath, etc. This can be done manually however via the "java -cp {set your classpath here...}" options as well.
i am trying to run jboss v6 in netbeans but it shows following error
Unable to read the logging configuration from 'file:logging.properties' (java.io.FileNotFoundException: logging.properties (The system cannot find the file specified))
If i run jboss stnadalone by directly going in bin/run.bat no error is displaying and it starts normally but in netbeans i am getting error as i mentioned above.
Can Anyone tell me what to do for solving this problem?
I found this answer somewhere else on the web:
Go to the “bin” directory where you’ve installed JBoss
Edit the “run.bat” file
Search for the line
set JAVA_OPTS=-Dprogram.name=%PROGNAME% -Dlogging.configuration=file:%DIRNAME%logging.properties %JAVA_OPTS%
Change the %DIRNAME% to your absolute path to the “bin” directory of your installed JBoss.e.g.
set JAVA_OPTS=-Dprogram.name=%PROGNAME% -Dlogging.configuration=file:"C:\Java\jboss-6.1.0-final\bin\logging.properties" %JAVA_OPTS%
I’m adding the double quote " so that if your directory name has spaces, it will still be legitimate.
Try to start your server through Netbeans again, it should be working fine after this.
Edit: One likely source
You copied the JDK out from "Program Files" and placed in C:\, and then configured JBOSS's run.conf from bin folder to point to the new location of JDK. For example
rem set "JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.6.0_13"
