AEM 6.2 starting with 503 Error

Avatar

Level 4

Hello All,

We are getting the below issue in our dev environment.

HTTP ERROR: 503

Problem accessing /crx/de/index.jsp. Reason:

What are the possible solutions to resolve this?

One solution we know is to delete the "index" folder under 'auhor\crx-quickstart\repository" and restart the instance.

Is it risky to delete the index folder ? What could be the possible side-effects of doing this ?

Thanks,

Vish

First - try making a copy so you do not delete anything. I would move the files to a separate folder and then try.

Hi Vish,

Basically Indicates sling not able to connect to repository. It may be corruption Or last install broke it.   Remove the last two entry in journal.log and verify.

You get that error when the authentication bundles haven't started yet. In some cases this is just a matter of time - the start up may still be progress. If it isn't just time then there are any number of reasons why the authentication bundles might not have started. There are two steps you need to take to troubleshoot the issues:

  •     Look at your error.log during start up and look for exceptions and error messages. These exceptions and error messages will clue you into what the problem is. 
  •     If you don't see error messages log into felix and see if you have any bundles that aren't starting and try to manually start them and watch the error logs while you are manually starting them.

One more Solution that worked for me is, going to your instance author/crx-quickstart/launchpad/config/org/apache/sling/jcr/repoinit.  and delete this folder. Now, Restart your Server.

 

Hope this helps!

This solved my issue. 
Removing the index did not make a difference, but deleting repoinit folder fixed it. Thanks.
