AEM 6.4 Quickstart Jar file Not Working

[bb2j3z2x]

Having some trouble getting the quickstart to run.    What version of JDK for java should I be using?    I downloaded version 8.   So Java SE version is 1.8.0_221.

Right now, when I run the quickstart jar file.    I see this screen but it never advances in the progress bar.      I am on Windows 10 - 64bit.

Logs show.

[Jörg_Hoh]

Which logfile have you posted? Can you check the error.log file for a hopefully more meaningfull error? Can you reach "localhost:4502" with a browser?

[hamidk92094312]

1. Can you post the output of java -version ?

2. Are you running quickstart as root/admin ?

[bb2j3z2x]

java version "1.8.0_221"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_221-b11)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.221-b11, mixed mode)

It's using the JDK in

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_221

[hamidk92094312]

Your JDK seems alright.

Can you provide the command/script you used to run the .jar file ?

[bb2j3z2x]

I am just double clicking on the jar file (AEM_6.4_Quickstart.jar) in windows 10.   

I looked at starting it at the command prompt.  And was trying this:

java -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xmx1024M -jar AEM_6.4_Quickstart.jar

But nothing was starting outside of the command prompt.   Didn't the AEM box from my screenshot nor anything in the browser.

Not sure if I need to rename the jar file before double clicking.

[hamidk92094312]

Can you do the following:

- change the name of the .jar file (assuming its an author environment) > aem64-author-p4564.jar

- run the command > java -jar -Xmx4G aem64-author-p4564.jar

[bb2j3z2x]

I get this:

[hamidk92094312]

you should lower the -Xmx

use this command > java -jar -Xmx1024m aem64-author-p4564.jar

Note: if your machine does not have a good hardware spec it may take up to a couple min for the page to come up.

[bb2j3z2x]

same result...  nothing comes up.

[hamidk92094312]

If you are connected to this machine as admin then the last thing that I can think of is that the .jar file is somehow corrupted. 

[bb2j3z2x]

Sorry, nevermind... it started to work.    It just took a really long time to load.    Also that screen doesn't come up, it just goes straight to the browser.    Thanks for all of your help.

[bb2j3z2x]

Any way to get the quickstart.jar to work by just double clicking on it?  Command line works.   When I double click the jar file,  the quickstart window loads with the on/off switch but when the browser launches, http://localhost:4564/  is in the address bar.

This site can’t be reached

localhost refused to connect.

• Search Google for localhost 4564

ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

[Jörg_Hoh]

have you configured your AEM instance to listen on port 4564? The default for authoring is 4502.

[bb2j3z2x]

I tried changing the file name to use port 4502 so it's aem64-author-p4502.jar now, still getting the same result when double clicking,     Not able to view the site.    However doing the same methods from the command line works.    It's fine for now as I can use AEM, but would prefer to just double click on the jar to get it to work.

[Jörg_Hoh]

starting via command line (using crx-quickstart/bin/start) is using a totally different approach to launch AEM than the double-click on the quickstart.jar file. For the case of double-click you need to change the filename of the quickstart.jar to change the port, while for the start script you need to customize that.

My personal preference is always to use the start script anyway, because the settings are much more explicit.

[Aryan12345]

I am having the same problem with AEM 6.4 on Win 10 with Java 8. Can you let me know how long it took for you?

Also my log keeps showing this.

Any idea whats happening?

[Aryan12345]

AEM 6.4 on windows 10 with JDK 8 seems to have a lot of issues in coming up. Replicated the issue in 2 seperate machines.

Also is there a way to get AEM 6.4 working on JDK 10 or 11?

[Jörg_Hoh]

This is a totally different issue. Can you please raise a new thread here in the forum?

Thanks,

Jörg

[SonDang]

Look like you are using the JRE instead of the JDK. You might want to check Java version that is installed.

[santhosh_kumark]

Increase the heap memory size to >1024 MB

Try running the below command from the command prompt with verbose option set.

java -Xmx1536M -jar AEM_6.4_Quickstart.jar -v

Hope this helps.
