Installation, Configuration and Deployment Issues

This error occurs when you haven’t set the environment variable (ADOBE_JAVA_HOME for turnkey installations and JAVA_HOME for others). To ensure successful installation, always ensure that the required parameters are set before you launch the installer and Configuration Manager.

When you try to run the install.bin executable from the LiveCycle DVD on a machine running

Red Hat® Enterprise Linux®, the following error message appears:

• /bin/sh:bad interpreter: Permission denied

  This occurs because Red Hat Enterprise Linux auto-mounts the DVD with noexec permissions. To resolve this issue and start the LiveCycle installation, perform these steps:

  1. Unmount the drive by entering the following command:

     umount /media/CDROM

  2. Remount the drive manually by completing the following tasks:

     • Create a directory named CDROM under the /media folder:

       mkdir /media/CDROM

  3. Mount the LiveCycle DVD under the /media/CDROM folder:

     mount /dev/hda /media/CDROM

  4. Change to the directory on which the DVD is mounted and run ./install.bin

The Configuration Manager fails with the ALC-TTN-104-002 error on the Turkish Windows Server 2008 operating system.

To avoid this issue, perform the following steps and rerun the Configuration Manager:

1. Open ConfigurationManager.bat from the [LiveCycle root]/configurationManager/bin folder, in an editor.

2. Add the following JVM argument:

   -Duser.language=en -Duser.country=US

3. Save and close the file.

If you have JDKs from multiple vendors installed on your system, Configuration Manager may pick a JDK other than the JDK specified in the PATH environment variable.

To resolve this issue, launch Configuration Manager using ConfigurationManager.bat instead of ConfigurationManager.exe.

You can examine the Configuration Manager logs to ensure that it is using the correct JDK.

Depending on the services you are installing and your system configuration, you may receive errors when deploying the EAR files. If this occurs, increase the MaxPermSize on your application server. For specific instructions on setting this value on your application server, see the Preparing to Install LiveCycle (Single Server) document.

If the system does not meet minimum system requirements or is heavily loaded, during installation or upgrade to LiveCycle, Configuration Manager incorrectly reports failure in deploying the Content Services EAR. This can occur while installing LiveCycle or upgrading from LiveCycle 9.x or earlier.

In addition, Configuration Manager logs contain the error message: “Failed to make SOAP RPC call: invoke”. As a result of this incorrect reporting, Workspace EAR is not deployed and you are unable to proceed to the next step in the Configuration Manager.

If this error appears, do the following:

1. Verify that the SOAP request time out is correctly set per the documentation. See the section “Configuring WebSphere time-out settings” in the Installing and Deploying LiveCycle for WebSphere document.

2. From the WebSphere Administrative Console, verify if Content Services EAR is correctly deployed and running. If you determine that Content Services EAR is deployed correctly, do one of the following:

   • In Configuration Manager, deselect the EARs that are already deployed and running and select only those EARs that are yet to be deployed (in this case, adobe-workspace-client.ear), and click Deploy.

   • Deploy the Workspace EAR file (adobe-workspace-client.ear) manually from WebSphere Administrative Console. After this step, run the Configuration Manager again, and then select the tasks that follow the deployment of EARs in Configuration Manager.

   Note: When Configuration Manager fails to deploy any EAR files, you can deploy them manually from the administrative console of your application server. Follow this general outline for manually deploying EAR files and continuing the configuration tasks in Configuration Manager:

   • Manually deploy the required EAR files from the administrative console of your application server.

   • Close the currently running instance of Configuration Manager.

   • Launch Configuration Manager again, and select the tasks that follow the deployment of EARs that you completed manually.

If the application server instance (WebSphere) or Managed Server (WebLogic) is on a different server, and not on the server with Deployment Manager (WebSphere) or Admin Server (WebLogic), you must manually deploy the LiveCycle EAR files. If you attempt to deploy by using Configuration Manager, you may receive an error message indicating that deployment failed.

If you are experiencing this error when using Configuration Manager to deploy the EAR files, complete the following procedure.

On deployment of the LiveCycle component, you may see this error:

    Component deployment failed validation. Cannot connect to server container

If so, complete the following procedure.

Download the GNU tar tool and use it to extract all files on a Solaris environment. Do not use the Solaris tar command to extract files otherwise errors similar to the following may occur due to missing files:

ERROR[org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[jboss.web].[localhost].[/invoker]] Exception starting filter ReadOnlyAccessFilter

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.invocation.http.servlet.ReadOnlyAccessFilter

After upgrading the LiveCycle server to the latest version or after deploying a service pack, the about dialog box of LiveCycle components displays an older version of the application.
