OBIEE 12c 12.2.1.2 - config.sh Configuration error on BI Startup - bi_server1 failed

chillychinMar 9 2017 — edited Mar 21 2017

I was having some issues with the final step of my OBIEE 12c 12.2.1.2 installation.

I am at the point where I am running the /bi/bin/config.sh and initially was hitting errors on the Essbase step (resolved this in a previous thread, it had to do with the java /dev/random - /dev/urandom java issue) and was able to get my configuration to successfully get to the BI Startup step

Once the tool hit this step it basically seemed to sit there for nearly an hour.

I could tell that there was "something" happening as I saw that files were being created, and some of the log files were updating.

It finally failed though and I cant seem to find much info on the actual error that caused it to fail?

I checked the [startallservers.log] and I see the following

So only Adminserver was able to start

On the step [Starting bi_server1] it just simply states "Server failed to start up but Node Manager was not aware of the reason"

The remainder of the error messages Im not sure why they would pop up, but I can create the folders easily enough. But the bi_server1 error really stumps me.

Has anyone else come across this issue?

Are there some other logs I can check?

This is a brand new install of OBIEE 12c, so I cant see what may be the issue?

Any help much appreciated!
