Error while starting AEM 6.4 for the first time

[sankeths53]

Hello,

When i'm trying to start AEM 6.4 for the first time, I'm getting the below error:

Exception in thread "sling-oak-1" java.lang.NullPointerException

        at org.apache.sling.commons.threads.impl.DefaultThreadPool$LoggingThreadLocalChangeListener.changed(DefaultThreadPool.java:172)

        at org.apache.sling.commons.threads.impl.ThreadLocalCleaner.changed(ThreadLocalCleaner.java:210)

        at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source)

        at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

Also a null file is created in the quickstart folder. Is this a known issue in AEM 6.4?

Hi,

Can you check jdk version? and other prerequisites before start.

[sankeths53]

I have all the prerequisites in place.

1. JDK 1.8

2. Maven 3.3.9

I'm able to open all the AEM consoles as well, but i was just curious to know about the null file in quickstart folder.

[maddiletir57063]

java version "1.8.0_121"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_121-b13)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.121-b13, mixed mode)

Technical Requirements  same as adobe recommeded in technical requirements and we have checked before starting.

[maddiletir57063]

Just want to know why null file is created.

And Observed this...

Start.bat---> "java --add-modules java.se.ee --version > null 2>&1

if %errorlevel% EQU 0 set CQ_JVM_OPTS=--add-modules java.se.ee %CQ_JVM_OPTS%

"

In Null file --> "Unrecognized option: --add-modules"

[Jörg_Hoh · Accepted solution]

ok, looks like the start.bat is incorrect. It rather should be

java  --add-modules java.se.ee --version > nul 2>&1

(nul instead of null).

that probably should fix the issue with the "null" file, but not with error you see. Nevertheless, please raise a Daycare ticket for it.

And that exception shouldn't happen as well. Can you reproduce it?
