Admin Service on Linux

Hi all

Red Hat Linux 7.2 - Standard Server Install
Java installed

java - version gives:
Java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1-b24)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1-b24, mixed mode

Progress V9.1D installed (Enterprise DB and 4GL Dev). When I try and start the Admin Server, I get the following:

PROGRESS Version 9.1D as of Wed May 8 16:47:54 EDT 2002
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.progress.common.util.acctAuthenticate.add37(acctAuthenticate.java

ticate.java:208)

Anyone got any ideas. I have also installed compat-libstdc.

Thanks,
Paul.
 
The adminserver uses the java rmi registry. You must start the registry and wait a few seconds to allow it to start before you call proadsv.

nohup ${JAVAHOME}/bin/rmiregistry 2>&1 >/dev/null &
sleep 15
proadsv -start
 
Still not working

Hi kzjones,

Thanks for you answer but I'm afraid I'm still having the same problem having started the registry.

Regards,
Paul
 
I have RedHat 7.2 release 2.4.18-18.7.x
Java 1.3.1_04-b02
Progress 9.1D (base)

You may want to run up2date and patch the OS, the java and Progress seam fine....good luck...
 
Warning Message

Did you get the following:

The detected JVM version does not match the version supported
by PROGRESS.

The detected version is: 1.3.1
The supported version is: 1.3.0

Using Progress with the detected JVM may yield unpredictable results.

The release notes say to install jdk1.3.1.

Regards,
Paul
 
Thanks

Thanks for that.
Have tried many versions of Java now but am still getting the same result:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

I've been away a couple of days - just getting back to it now. think it's time I rang tech support.

Thanks,
Paul
