[CLOSED] HTTP Status 404 - / ibi_apps
Hello everyone.

I'm not very experienced with WebFOCUS 8 server administration, so sometimes I find it a bit difficult to troubleshoot.
Our WEBFOCUS of the development environment is not working although the services are ok.
When I type "http: // localhost / ibi_apps" I get the following message:
HTTP Status 404 - / ibi_apps
type Status report
message / ibi_apps
description The requested resource is not available.
Apache Tomcat / 8.0.43

Has anyone else had this problem?

If tomcat is in place, shouldn't you be using port 8080?

http://localhost:8080/ibi_apps

Also, check the tomcat logs, and the WebFOCUS logs.

Tomcat may be up, but the WebFOCUS app may not have started.

If it set up, go into tomcat manager app, and check to see if ibi_apps is started.

As Waz says check the Tomcat logs

We see this when Tomcat is started and can't reach the server where the WebFOCUS repository is located.

We have set the Tomcat service to Automatic (delayed) to make sure that it comes up after the network is up

Cheers

Also, what are you using for your WebFOCUS Repository?
What release of WebFOCUS is this occurring in?
Are you using 8105?

The ibi_apps is not starting ... I checked the log and it looks like the problem is in the connection with the SQLserver ... "Internal Exception: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: The driver could not establish a secure connection to SQL Server by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption Error: "java.security.cert.CertificateException: Certificates does not conform to algorithm constraints" ...

Hi Ezio,

Looks like Tomcat and/or SQL server might not be correctly set up to use SSL together.

Here is a blog from Microsoft that may help you debug The driver could not establish a secure connection to SQL Server by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption.

Hope that helps

Thank you Stu. At this point I am waiting for the support to resolve the server's certificate problem ...
