Unable to start OpenKM in tomcat7 after manual installation

PostPosted:Thu Dec 09, 2021 4:31 pm

Greetings,
After installing OpenKM's war file to my Tomcat7 instance, and clicking "Start" in Tomcat's webapp manager interface, it fails to start with the following message:
Code: Select all
FAIL - Application at context path [/OpenKM] could not be started
FAIL - Encountered exception [org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to start component [StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/OpenKM]]]
I'm aware the installer comes with a prepared environment and configuration files that work by themselves, but the installer does not support my distro (ArchLinux), hence why I'm performing a manual installation. My database is mariadb, which I created by loosely following this tutorial.
In the logs directory, the file catalina.err and catalina.out are both empty. This is systemctl status of tomcat7:
Code: Select all

Please let me know if there's any additional logs I should provide.
Any help setting this up would be highly appreciated :)

Must download tomcat-8 from here https://sourceforge.net/projects/openkm/files/common/ and use JDK 1.8

I have already been using JDK 1.8 so far. Indeed, the files you provided work beautifully.
Thank you very much!
