  • 1.  EPAgent Start failure

    Posted Apr 03, 2017 02:52 PM

    We are currently getting an Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion when starting an IntroscopeEPAgent.  Any help would be appreciated.

    What version of the EPAgent?  Is there anything that gets written to the EPAgent log?

     

    Check if the epagent\conf\EPAService.conf is set up correctly, especially the path to the properties file, the epagent.jar file, the wrapper.jar file, the path to your Java home is correct.  IIRC, it uses JAVA_HOME, so make sure that is set in your environment variables.

     

    You may want to upload those files here.

    We are currently in version 9.6.  A patch was installed in the Windows server when it stopped working.  The patch was removed and the server restarted but the EPAgent wouldn't start at all.  I've attached the wrapper logs to our server.  We have 5 instances for our EPAgents.

    Two issues I see.

     

    1. INFO|1472/0|Service IScopeEPA0Prod|17-04-01 02:09:23|4/01/17 02:09:23 AM CDT [ERROR] [IntroscopeAgent.Agent] The agent extensions directory E:\Local\Config\ext could not be located.  No extensions will be loaded.

     

    That needs to be fixed in the EPAService.conf file.  

     

    2. I do see failure to connect to the em @ localhost:25001 and then a received service control 4.  Eventually the agent connects to the EM on localhost@25001.  I'm wondering if the delay in connecting is causing this issue.

    Is there a way to fix that delay in connecting to the EM ?

    It should connect immediately if the EM is up and accepting connections.  Can you check your EM log at the same time those messages appear in the EPAgent.log?

    I think we figured out the cause for non-service startup for the EPAgent.  The log file went over 50MB.  We renamed the wrapper log file and when it created a new wrapper log file the EPAgent service started working.  Thank you for your time.
