Unable to start Sun JES Web Server 6.1 SP5 on Solaris 8- SPARC system

While starting the Sun Java Web server after installation encountered the

following error:

./startconsole

Sun ONE Web Server 6.1SP5 B08/17/2005 22:09

failure: CORE3170: Configuration initialization failed: Error running init

function load-modules: dlopen of

/opt/SUNWwbsvr/bin/https/lib/libj2eeplugin.so failed (ld.so.1: webservd:

fatal: relocation error: file /opt/SUNWwbsvr/bin/https/lib/libares3.so:

symbol __res_state: referenced symbol not found)

Launching browser....

./startconsole: netscape: not found

When searched the Sun documentation found that this is a known issue and the workaround says to use 32-bit Sun Web server or 64-bit plugin for java.

I was unable to find the 32-bit release for Sun Web Server 6.1 SP5 or 64-bit plugin for java i.e. libj2eeplugin.so.

Please help me out

Thanks,

Mani

hi

this is how you the admin server and server instance

start admin server

/opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-admserv/start

start server instance

/opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-HOSTNAME/start

JES web server currently available in the market only runs in 32 bit mode.

startconsole - the command that you are trying to run here is actually start a browser, in this case, if u would prefer accessing the admin server through some other browser, you can very well do so by running the above commands and not run 'startconsole' itself.

hope this helps

ok, i should have caught this earlier

looks like, your program is not able to start because of not finding a symbol called __res_state. This symbol is found in /usr/lib/libresolv.so.2

the most likely reason is that u probably do not have some required patches installed

if u r open to install the sun patch cluster , then that is probably the best way to go

visit the below url

http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/patch-access

and look for solaris 9 (around 180 mb of size) download this patch cluster and install them in single user mode

btw, when u have installed the jes version of web server,it is already running only in 32 bit.

hope this helps
