Hi,
I have installed WAS 4.0.1 on windows.
After that I have installed patch for the same too.
When i started the "IBM WS AdminServer 4.0" service, it got started.
& all repository tables are also created.
But after that when i try to start administrator's console,
the dos window will opens & gets closes immediately (ie- before GUI for IBM WAS starts)
I am not able to understand what is the problem with the WAS4.0.1
There is nothing written to log files too except
one file activity.log file.
which shows this message

thanx

Kapil..
there are a few things to check:
a. Check the tracefile ( This file will be in the same directory as the activity log). If possible post its contents here.
b. Looks like u are having problems with JDBC lookups as well.. Try starting the service from the command line. There would be a startup server or the like in the <WAS_HOME>\AppServer\bin folder. And see if this is still a problem
c. Make sure HTTP server is started ( just in case).
Most important for debugging further is the trace file. So.. post it when u can.

Dont know what happened to the prev post.. I see a blank page.
Anyway.. here it goes:
a. if possible post contents of the tracefile. This file can be found in the same directory as the activity.log
b. try starting the admin server from the command line and see if that works
c. check db connectivity.
d. in the shortcut used to start the admin console, check it port 900 is mentioned.

Try opening it from a dos window command prompt - that way you will know the exeption thrown before failure of adminclient.

Thanx Nagendra & Kumar for replying,
1) About the tracefile, it has no specific errors, when Service starts, it is prompted in the tracefile that "admin server open for e-business"
2)I have tried all permutations for startup like starting from dos prompt but still the story is the same.
It does not give any specific error on dos prompt too.
"Message is that"
No remote host or port argument specified. localhost/900 will be used
& the syntax for the same.
& if i start it like this
adminclient localhost 900
then "Remote AdminServer localhost will be accessed on port 900"
that's it & after that the application does not open .
3) about HTTP Server, I have put that on different m/c. (my application server & HTTP server are physically on two different m/c's) so how to do that?
