Blue Screen crash with AEM 6

Avatar

Level 1

We are trying to get AEM6 up and running a couple of dev boxes, but keep getting blue screen crashes.

- two of the machines are laptops (4GB ram), one is a desktop (8GB ram)

- they are all Lenovo machines that are running our corporate image (which includes various services, including Symantec Endpoint Protection)

- they are all running Windows 7 professional 64bit

- we have tried both the 32bit and 64 bit version of java 7 (1.7.0_65)

- these same machines run AEM 5.6 just fine

The behavior is sometimes slightly different, but basically goes like this:

- Start AEM with the following command:  java -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xmx1024M -jar <AEM_6.0_Quickstart.jar>

- If no license file is in place it will prompt for the license info, then continue to start

- When it goes to open the browser window, it often Blue Screens at this point

- Sometimes it successfully opens the browser window.  If it does you can often navigate through the menu, but it might blue screen at anytime

- If you try to create a new project, it will go through the whole process, but then blue screen when it tries to open the new project

Any thoughts on how to get it working?

Hi Burton,

Can you attach the error logs ...

Here you go.  What files types does this forum support for attachments?  I could only get .txt to work, but I had wanted to attach a zip with all of the logs in it.
