FM server admin not starting

Featured Replies

Hi There,

I set up a FM server 10 recently and has been working for the last couple of months. After rebooting the server this morning, all database files are running okay but the server admin is not starting. I don't recall I needed to do anything to start server admin in the first place. But when I start it this time, it keeps "connecting...." but never complete. I looked at each tab from admin start and tried changing some configurations, that didn't make it work. I don't seem to find a log somewhere to tell what could be wrong.

What could be the problem? What can I do to get it running again? I really appreciate any help from this community.

To be more specific, I saw this message flashing on the bottom of the FileMaker Server Admin Console:

Waiting for file:///C:/Program%20Files/FileMaker/FileMaker%20Server/Admin/admin-server/launch-page/...

There is also this message displaying on the bottom or the console window:

Unknown Zone (Mixed)

Hope this would shed some light on the cause of the problem.

Thanks

Sal

I ran into a similar problem recently where the admin panel would never open. I was able to fix it by flushing the Java cache. Hopefully will help you as well.
