IBM Worklight Failing to start

Question

Configuration: Eclipse (Juno) 4.2.2

IBM Worklight version: 6.2.0.01

Java version: java version "1.7.0_71" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_71-b14) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.71-b01, mixed mode)

JDK: jdk1.7.0_71.jdk

Java Compiler: 1.7

My worklight studio was previously working and suddenly stops working after I had to force quit my eclipse. Even after reinstallation of the plugins, the error still recurs.

Here's a screenshot of the initial error log before 'Worklight server failed to start' and 'Failed to deploy application in the worklight server'. Any help to fix this issue will be deeply appreciated. Worklight studio issues like this is starting to get frustrating.

Answer 1

I uninstalled java from my mac. Reinstalled Java (JDK & JRE), new Eclipse (Juno 4.2.2) -> Then installed IBM Worklight Studio plugin. Figured it was the problem with Java as it was throwing the java exception 'unable to read the manifest'. Probably there was some issue after updating to Yosemite.

Answer 2

It looks Java EE got corrupted somehow,

So as suggested the best approach would be to use a fresh Eclipse instance with a new plug-in installation and a new workspace as well. This way it makes sure everything is fresh and new.

Answer 3

I had the same problem. You need to set correct IP for Worklight server. It doesn't work with "localhost" or "*".
