iPlanet Server Problems

[Steven Gillard_2]

Try starting 'mwm' (motif window manager) before running startconsole, that used to work for me:

$ export DISPLAY=.....:0
$ mwm &
$ ./startconsole &

You probably need to upgrade your java.

Right. I have run tusc against startconsole and have found that it is trying to run a version of java from /var/opt/iplanet/servers/bin/base/jre/bin/java. Does anybody know how to get it to run the version in /opt/java1.3?

cheers

Hi,

First of all I would check if the system has all te patches recommended by Netscape


http://docs.iplanet.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/41/rn41sp9.html#19292

And after that I would configure the java plugin to run with the Netcape comunicator

I hope this help.

Phil,

I have had the same kind of nightmares trying to get this iPlanet console working on hpux. In the end I downloaded the Windows version which ended up being more stable. With the unix version I can only suggest the following:

- make sure you have the latest version of the console. Earlier versions are full of bugs and crash frequently.

- definitely run mwm first. I don't know why this helps, but for some reason I couldn't get the console to appear without it.

As for the java version, the startconsole file is just a script, so its probably in there somewhere. (I'm not looking after an iplanet installation at the moment so I can't confirm this).

Regards,
Steve
