using DHIS live with Demo database webserver doesn't start

Dear advisors / helpers;

I am new to this type of forum so, hope that I am doing the right thing here.

Want to learn about and practice with DHIS 2 using the Sierra Leone database off-line.

Have installed all the necessary components (I think) and made the necessary connections (I think).

I did as being told by Knut Staring: starting DHIS 2; a small notice in the bottom tells me to “please(!) be patient”. I was! Then at long last a small notice: “webserver failed to start -see logs for details”

When I go to local host: http://localhost:8082/dhis-web-commons/security/login.action, I CAN log in, but get an empty screen, no database is loaded, no dashboard shows.

Where is the problem?

I did find the log file and attached it

(( you can see I tried more than one time. I admit a sign of stupidity: doing the same thing again and again and still expecting a new result :slight_smile: ))

Please assist

with regards

Aad

Hi,
I’m not very familiar with DHIS Live (or DHIS on windows), but looking at the log, it seems:

  • DHIS 2 live started and you could log in with the default empty database

  • The first time you started with a postgres (demo?) database, it also started and you could log in

Then, it looks like DHIS 2 i started again, but I don’t see any sign of the previous instance being shut down first. So (perhaps a stupid question…), but are you sure that there’s not an instance of DHIS 2 running in the background? Safest way to make sure is probably to restart windows.

Aad, you need to right click on that green icon down in the right hand corner in order to Exit the DHIS2 server. Or you could also open Windows Task Manager and kill all java processes.

Hi Aad,

we have just made a fix to DHIS version 2.13 which solves an issue for
starting up on Live. Could you please download the latest one from here and
try again: Downloads - DHIS2

Re the database I suspect that you have not connected to Postgres but are
still running on H2.

regards,

Lars

Hi Lars,

I’m also facing a similar problem. The first time I start the service it starts ok and I’m able to authentication with default admin user. If I restart the service although I get a success message on log, trying to access the application I get

HTTP ERROR: 503

Problem accessing /. Reason:

SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE

Is there a maven target to generate the .zip file with all the dhis2-live
bundle?

Do you remember the changes you did so I can check if I have merged the code
correctly?

The problem to me is that I can’t use your version because of the import
problem

Hi Paulo,

no sorry no maven goal for Live yet.

To verify the WAR you can check the build number under Help > About > Build revision inside dhis.

The fix was done in trunk in rev 13145:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dhis2-devs-core/dhis2/trunk/revision/13145

and in 2.13 in rev 12908:
