Diagnozing why ibc is not launching after upgrading to 3.20
Hi all,
I upgraded to ibc 3.20 by overwriting the files in the /opt/ibc folder via the unzip command. sudo unzip ~/s/IBCLinux-3.20.zip -d \ /opt/ibc Since then, ibc refuses to launch. There are no log entries therefore I do not know what to do. I have tested the integrity of the zip file and have even tried inflating the ibc.jar file. Both those tests have worked which means that ibc has been correctly downloaded. I did not change the configuration files in this release since no changes had to be made. I am running ibc on linux. What am I missing? Pranav |

Using that command will unpack the whole of the zip and overwrite all the files, thereby overwriting all your customisations. My instructions in the Release Notes say this: 'To upgrade to this Release, download the relevant zip file and extract the IBC.jar and version files, copying them over the current versions in your IBC installation folder.' So it is only those two files, specifically mentioned, that should have been touched. Clearly that message didn't get through. For future releases I'll try to remember to add a reminder that it's always safest to make a backup copy of your IBC configuration before doing any upgrades. Iif you did make such a backup copy, then put it back in place, and try again with just those two files. If you don't have a backup (and you really ought to have one in your general computer backup), then I'm afraid you'll have to set it up from scratch again. Richard |

You make excellent points. I have found the problem and am back up. The problem was that the new scripts did not have the execute permission. My primary scripts are renamed so I did not lose them. I updated the gateway to 10.31, modified my gatewayStartLive.sh and gatewayStartPaper.sh scripts and was back. Pranav -----Original Message-----

I'm glad to hear that.

Another thing I should do is add a reminder to Release notes to re-permission the scripts when they have been updated. You're by no means the first person to trip over this... R. -----Original Message-----
