AEM not loaded after compaction

Hi,

I have an issue after running compaction for my system, the compaction log said compaction was successful. But when starting up, all of the requests are returning 503 including crx/de. I tried accessing OSGi bundles and all are started and active. Also checked error.log but nothing found. I also had to key in the default admin password to access to OSGi bundles although I've changed the admin password (password was working before compaction).

I noticed in stdout.log, it's missing the loading of ESAPI.properties and validation.properties when startup. Other instances have different startup log in stdout.log. Below logs are for the not working and working instances.

Is there something wrong with my instance? Any advise would be appreciated.

My instance is AEM 6.2-SP1 CFP14.

Thanks.

ESAPI.properties is not an issue. Check if data*.tar file has RW permissions for an account that you are using to start AEM.

Are you able to access /system/console?

Also, tail stderr.log file. If there is an error on startup it will be thrown into stderr.log.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I'm able to access /system/console. And all bundles are active. But I had to login using default admin account although I had changed admin password.

Hi,

Thanks for your advise! Looks like it's because the user that run AEM does not have the permission RW to the *.tar file. I changed the owner and AEM can be started.

Thanks a lot.
