Hi

 

Last weekend customer installed Windows updates and restarted server(VM) without stopping IFSMWS. Since that application is not available. Start process ends up with:

HttpServer1 : EXCEPTION (Received error message from Node Manager Server: [OHS Server 'HttpServer1' is either already running or in the process of starting/restarting]. Please check Node Manager log for details.)

Nodemanager log has not any errors:

I gathered ifsdump.zip but I can not figure out how to resolve problem.

Netstat command does not show any blocked ports.

Do You have any ideas?

@knepiosko,

Assuming you are working with an Apps 10 instance….

Step 1 - reconfigure mws

if this doesn’t resolve the issue then proceed to Step 2

Step 2 - connect to IFS Admin Console

Step 3 - make sure connection to database is valid (Common  » Database  »  press “Validate Connection” button at top).  If not valid, work with a DBA to resolve connectivity issues.  If valid proceed to Step 4.

Step 4 - make sure HTTP Server1 (and other HTTP servers if you have a clustered mws) is running, i.e. status shows “green”.  If valid, proceed to Step 5.

Step 5 - confirm whether Main Server’s Managed Server shows RUNNING for State value and status shows “green”.  (MainCluster  »  Managed Servers  »  Servers tab).  If valid proceed to Step 6.

Step 6 - confirm whether Main Server’s Data Sources show Running state.  (Main Cluster  »  Data Sources  »  Control tab).  If any Data Source shows not running see whether or not the Reset button will resolve State.  If all Data Sources show Running then continue to Step 7.

Step 7 - check to see State value for Deployments  (Main Cluster  »  Deployments).  If any deployment does not show Active value for State then highlight the deployment row and click Start button to resolve.  If all Deployments show Active then continue to Step 8.

Step 8 - repeat Steps 5 through 7 for Integration Cluster

If these steps don’t resolve the problem then notify IFS Support by opening a case.  Provide IFS version, UPD level, type of user authentication in use, basic Windows Server version for host server, etc, in initial case notes.  Also include recent changes to IFS (deliveries?  patch installations?) and the host server, if any, such as the Windows update description given here.

@knepiosko  At Step 2 How do we get to IFS Admin console if we are unable to launch from the URL

In such cases, i.e. where the “can’t reach this page” response is given it’s necessary to restart the mws server processes - or possibly to even reconfigure the mws using the mws-svr.cmd script or the IFS installer app (installer.cmd), respectively.  Both of these tools are found at the root level of the mws home directory.
