AEM Server is not starting

[saibul]

AEM - 6.5.5

Type - Author

The server was working fine fine. Two days back I installed SP-6.5.10, after installing the server the server was working fine.

Yesterday, I stopped the server and clear the logs from logs folder and I try to restart the AEM server but, it is not starting.

Not sure due to SP-6.5.10 it is not starting. After installing SP the server was working last two days fine.

It would be great if some give your opinions.

only stdout.log is created not other logs found in the logs folder

--------logs from stdout.log-------------

[saibul · Accepted solution]

I fixed the issue.

1. taken back of crx-quickstart folder for safer side

2. directly ran the server using "java -jar  aem-6.5.0-author-p4502.jar" and it started correctly.

3. uninstalled the sp-6.5.10

4. stopped the server

5. started the server using service and it started.

[saibul]

I don't think sp-6.5.10 caused the issue, but I got my server up at the first place to do something next.
