RE: Does Liferay work on Windows 7??

[Nitin Pawar，修改在14 年前。]

Hi All,

I want to know whether Liferay 5.2.3 bundled with Tomcat can work on Windows 7 or not.

Has anyone tested it ?

Regards
Nitin Pawar

[Dominik Förderreuther，修改在14 年前。]

Hi,

sure. All you need is an actual JDK from java.sun.com. For a deeper test, you need to install a database server like MySQL.

Best regards,
Dominik

[Nitin Pawar，修改在14 年前。]

Thnks Dominik!!


I am using MS SQL Server Express and JDK 1.5
Both are running absolutely fine.

Somehow Liferay isn't starting up.. So I thought of checking if there is any compatibility issue...

Thanks
Nitin Pawar

[steve rieger，修改在14 年前。]

no compatibility issues
what is the error ?

[Nitin Pawar，修改在14 年前。]

The Error is:


Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine

Configuration is:
1GB RAM, 2.99 GHz Processor
OS : Windows 7

[Shagul Khaja，修改在14 年前。]

Hi Nitin,

Liferay tomcat default configuration requires at least 1GB+ to run. Take a look at the setenv.bat file.

set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Xms128m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -Dfile.encoding=UTF8 -Duser.timezone=GMT -Djava.security.auth.login.config="%CATALINA_HOME%/conf/jaas.config" -Dorg.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.ENABLE_CLEAR_REFERENCES=false

From your post it looks like 1 GB is the total RAM in the machine. Is that right?

You may be able to reduce the -Xmx1024m to -Xmx512m in setenv.bat file and try again.

Hi,

@Nitin, you wan't have fun with liferay and windows 7 until you increase the memory of your machine.

Btw:
I have one exception on startup of liferay on windows 7 machines. There is no resulting problem so I've ignored it, but maybe anybody can give me a hint how to stop the exception? I suppose it is a file system / rights issue, but I'm not very familiar with these special windows topics.

Hi,

are you still using the liferay tomcat bundle? How do you start the server?

Line 1 to 19 of your error message looks like you've used shutdown.bat without starting the server before...

Are there any lines before line 1 of your post?

Best regards,
Dominik

[Nitin Pawar，修改在14 年前。]

@ Dominik

In my startup.bat, I am first calling shutdown.bat so that if tomcat is already running, it will shutdown and start again.

I have found the reason for this error.

There is some problem in my portal-ext file, coz when i rename this file so that tomcat skips it and uses its own database, then liferay portal comes up.

That means it is related to database connection.

Here is the code portal-ext.

jdbc.default.driverClassName=net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver
jdbc.default.url=jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://localhst/DatabaseName
jdbc.default.username=abcd
jdbc.default.password=abcd

I believe, this code is correct.

What changes I need to do in my Database configuration?


Regards,
Nitin

[Dominik Förderreuther，修改在14 年前。]

Hi,

remove shutdown.bat from your startup.bat. It's not possible to do a restart on this way, because the script shutdown.bat ends long before your tomcat completes the shutdown process.

Maybe there is a missing "o" in your "localhost"? :-)

Best regards,
Dominik

[Nitin Pawar，修改在14 年前。]

Hi,

The issue is resolved completely.

I had to give a specific port no. to my Database.
It is working gr8 now.

Thanks all for your valuable suggestions.

I use 64bit Windows 7 Enterprise with 64bit SUN JDK and MySQL server. It works fine with liferay even on Tomcat or on JBOSS+Tomcat bundle.

[Jack A. Rider，修改在14 年前。]

Hi,

It works for my

- Liferay 5.2.3 bundled with tomcat-6.0.18

- no problem with HSQL or MySQL.

The error is saying the port your tomcat try to using is already been used by other app.

Maybe you have already other tomcat server running on your win 7.

[Marsha Clark，修改在13 年前。]

Thanks for the tip. I configured the server.xml sheet to point to port 9090 instead of 8080. It now opens. Thanks so much for your help!

[Senthil Chockalingam，修改在12 年前。]

Same JVM Bind issue.

My Vmware web service(tomcat) is accessing that port.

Now I stopped tht service and started the liferay server.

it's up and running fine.

[Apurv Agrawal，修改在13 年前。]

I had a similar problem like Nitin...used the same soln...n it workd..

Thanks alot...cheers...
