Upgrade new server

Hello,

 

We are upgrading a client from version 1.7 windows to linux 1.8. we get the server working without the migrated database but as soon as we migrate the users database and do the database upgrade to version 1.8 we can not access and the tomcat appliance will not start. I have also tried running it pre upgrade migration with no luck. has anyone got any suggestions on what to do

What errors are being reported?

You can find these <TOMCAT_HOME>/logs.

The openvpms-full.log is the main OpenVPMS log.

Re: Upgrade new server

I agree with Tim A - you need to figure out what is working and what is not.

Q1. Is Tomcat itself starting - ie are the various Tomcat logs OK, and can your browser talk to Tomcat itself on port 8080?  If not my guess is that there is a problem with the Tomcat/Java setup - and I suspect /etc/default/tomcat7 is worth checking [but I use windows based systems so am not certain]

Q2 If Tomcat is running you should be able to see OpenVPMS in the applications list at http://<SERVER>:8080/manager/html.  If you cannot see this then Tomcat did not find the openvpms.war file.  Remember that there will be no openvpms.log or openvpms-full.log if Tomcat did not try to start OpenVPMS.

It is not exactly clear from your description whether you had OpenVPMS 1.7 running on the linux system. If you did (and it was using Java 7) and as part of the upgrade you switched to Java 8, then I would suspect a problem with the Java setup.
