ISE 2.2 - Application error (APP_START)

[Ike]

Hello,

I decided to post this fix after searching online for a solution but could not find one except to rebuild ISE.

*****Issue***

ISE will not accept any configuration commands, or application start/stop commands even after restarting several times, or waiting for several hours.

***Error***

ise01/admin# application start ise

 Waiting up to 20 seconds for lock: APP_START to complete

Database is still locked by lock: APP_START. Aborting. Please try it later

% Error: Another ISE DB process (APP_START) is in progress, cannot perform Application Start at this time

****Solution ****

At the command prompt, enter "application configure ise"

select "[5]Refresh Database Statistics"

select "[19]Exit"

This would stop the DB process and allow you to input your commands. I hope this helps.

I faced the same Issue. If you work in Lan Environnement, Be sure to have enough of ram memory in Ise (For me 2Gb). 

****Solution ****

At the command prompt, enter "application configure ise"

select "[5]Refresh Database Statistics"

select "[19]Exit"
