Re: Need confirmation that ARS 7.5 will run on Windows 2003 x64
I did build up a small server for testing with 7.5 and itsm 7.6 on a notebook running win 2003 64 bit and it did work. The database was also local to that machine. I had no issues installing or getting it to run, other then the system only had 4 gig of ram. I just needed to strip it down and take my notebook back, Good luck, Howard On Mon, May 24, 2010 at 5:59 PM, Jason Bess wrote: > I added the -t option but didn't see any additional log files. > > Not sure what you mean by a core file. > > > > > On Thu, 20 May 2010 17:17:22 +0100, Danny Kellett > wrote: > > >If you put -t in the armonitor.conf after the arserver then it creates a > >startup log in the bin dir.

Did you put the -t as the first parameter in the armonitor file? It should create log files in the bin directory.

Re: Need confirmation that ARS 7.5 will run on Windows 2003 x64
Hi Tim, Since this server is only for Remedy 32bit we only installed 32bit Java There were a few rik errors in the install logs, the install hung on the final server restart and the administration console plug-ins were not working (sounds consistent with java issues) after manually starting ARS. I ripped out everything ARS and started with patch 1 -> 3 -> 4 successfully without changing anything else.

Re: Need confirmation that ARS 7.5 will run on Windows 2003 x64
If you put -t in the armonitor.conf after the arserver then it creates a startup log in the bin dir. It may have something in there or indicate where it is crashing. Is it creating a core file?

Jason, When you try and start the service do you get any error in the server event logs? We have successfully implemented ARS 7.5 Patch 4 on a Windows 2003 64 bit server. Make sure you install a 32bit version of Java. The only thing that was out of the normal install procedure was we had to make sure that the install pointed to the 32Bit Java.

Re: Need confirmation that ARS 7.5 will run on Windows 2003 x64
I have also had (different) issues using 7.5 p4 for a fresh install. This was on Windows 2008 64bit. I end up installing patch 1 since I had successfully done fresh installs with it in the past. Then we went to patch 3 and finally patch 4. I am thinking what you are seeing most likely related to the hardening but it might be worth a shot to start with p1.

Re: Need confirmation that ARS 7.5 will run on Windows 2003 x64
Jason, I saw that error on a 32-bit Win2k3 system installation. The problem had to do with a group domain policy that prevented the domain from caching the server name or something. To test that, see if you can start the service if the machine is disconnected from the domain. If so, that's it. Your Windows admins got a little overzealous in their security settings, and should be able to address it easily.

Re: Need confirmation that ARS 7.5 will run on Windows 2003 x64
The Windows version of ARS is a 32 bit application and requires 32 bit database clients to connect to the database (the installer uses JDBC rather than the native db client). Double check that you have the 32 bit db client files on the arserver machine. Also try the -t option on the arserver.exe line in armonitor.cfg to get the startup log which may give you a clue as to exactly where it's failing.
