    Hi Karthik,

     

    Stop Jboss first.

     

    Go into your Jboss folder and clear out the log:

     

    cd /opt/jboss-4.2.3.GA/server/default/log/ or C:\jboss-4.2.3.GA\server\default\log\

    Rename the server.log currently in there.

     

    Start Jboss next and reproduce the problem, load up Enterprise Management.

     

    After that's done, please send us your server.log.

     

    We can also see that you have an issue opened, 00083771 // Unable to start CA Enter mgr - please upload your logs there so we can see the exact errors you're receiving within your log.

     

    Thanks,

    Eric

    Thanks for looking into this Eric, server logs are updated in case with DEBUG mode enabled.

    Hi Karthik,

     

    Also looking at your logs that are already up, it appears there's an error with your backend database account:,

     

    2015-04-28 14:06:27,942 ERROR [com.ca.accesscontrol.facade.ACBackendImpl] Error while the user tried to login into the back-end.

    com.ca.accesscontrol.exception.CommandFailedException: Connection to host ddglaa68 using user name: itimadm has failed with the returned error: (ddglaa68)

     

    Is ddglaa68 your RDBMS server?  Is it an AD server?  See if the account is still available, not locked or  password mismatch, also see if you can ping that hostname from the Enterprise Management machine.


    Thanks,

    Eric

    Dear Customer,

     

    Please make sure you are using MS SQL Standard or Enterprise version - as some lines in the install logs mentions "SQLEXPRESS" which if it is MS SQL Express, I don't think it is supported.

     

    Hope this helps,

     

    Regards,

     

    Amit.
