Error Running Application Database Configuration utility

[Former Member]

I'm getting an error when trying to run the Application Database Configuration utility on a fresh xMII v11.5.4 install. At first I tried starting it from the program group shortcut, but after that failed to invoke the gui I opened a command window in Win2k3 to see the gory details. Here's the error message I encountered:

C:\>java -classpath "LH\webapps\default\Lighthammer\web-inf\classes";"LH\web

com.lighthammer.Illuminator.gui.dbSetup.AppDBCreator

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/lighthammer/Illuminator/gui/dbSetup/AppDBCreator

Obviously the AppDBCreator is not being found. Thinking it might be some config problem on the this new server, I tried running the utility again on a previously (successfully) configured Development server just for grins and I received the same error.

I gather LH is a path variable pointing to the ServletExec dir, and I'm wondering if this variable doesn't persist past the initial install... or has the jar file gone missing?

Any ideas, comments, or derogatory remarks?

Yes, derogatory. See us.humor.sarcastic.wit.

Good idea with the path, Udayan, thanks for your response. I had actually tried it before I posted my question with just the drive letter, but I'd still had errors. Then I realized that its not the just the drive letter but rather "C:\ServletExec AS\se-xMII", and it worked.

I'm still wondering if it is a bug, though, since the three xMII v11.5.4 installs I checked all have the LH and the LHLib in the batch file, and someone told me recently that v11.5.4 was not just a differential upgrade but a total file replacement...

Derogatory?

I am not sure why the LH is being shown , it actually should be the drive where servlet exec is installed.

Can you open and check <Installed Drive>\ServletExec AS\se-xMII\webapps\default\Lighthammer\bin\DBUpdate.bat , as to what it shows? Does it have the LH as well?Maybe replacing the LH with the drive solve your problem
