PI not start - java error

[Ralf Boehm]

Hello,

I got a java error, see the following text, if I tried to start ncs or check status:

ncs status
Exception in thread "main" java.util.NoSuchElementException

The problem was, the file

/opt/CSCOlumos/conf/rfm/classes/com/cisco/common/ha/config/haSettings.xml

was empty. For my luck, I found a copy in the same directory:

haSettings_bkup.xml

Copy this file to haSettings.xml, and all works fine. I do not know, why these file was empty.

Hi!

@Ralf Boehm 

Could You paste that config file here so other can see?

I might have the same issue, but I do not have backup of this file.

[Ralf Boehm]

Hello, that would be not help you. Because the file contains a authenticationKey and a sharedKey. And these are not the same for your installation. MfG Boehm

My setup is standalone @Ralf Boehm

Please share, You can remove any important details, I have no choice.

Seems disk space issue overwritten it... and there is a bug to address this :

[Ralf Boehm]

Hello, ok, here is the content of the file /opt/CSCOlumos/conf/rfm/classes/com/cisco/common/ha/config/haSettings.xml: All information, like keys etc., are replaced with "X". We have only a standalone installation, but this file is necessary. MfG Boehm

[Ralf Boehm]

Sorry, Ihave forgot the file. 😕 When use, remove "txt" at the end of the filename.

[EvaldasOu]

Thank You @Ralf Boehm !

My prime infrastructure is back up! No issues with licenses either, will let You know if anything is incorrect, so far so good, so this will be helpful for others later 😉

How I can copy and paste this file in /opt/CSCOlumos/conf/rfm/classes/com/cisco/common/ha/config/

[Ralf Boehm]

Hello, have you a file? If yes, you have to login via ssh. Then call the cmd "shell". Then change to the directory "/opt/CSCOlumos/conf/rfm/classes/com/cisco/common/ha/config". Use vi to create the file. MfG Ralf Boehm

[Adnan Khan]

Hello, you have to login via ssh. Then call the cmd "shell". Then change to the directory "/opt/CSCOlumos/conf/rfm/classes/com/cisco/common/ha/config". There must be the file "haSettings.xml". MfG Boehm
