ISSUE: Weblogic Server Processes Not Starting

After a server reboot or non-graceful shutdown of STA, one of the Weblogic server processes like (staAdapter, staEngine, staUi, AdminServer) may not start. This can be caused by a Weblogic lock file (.lck) that was not properly removed during shutdown.

Resolution

1. Open a terminal session on the STA server and login as the Oracle user.
2. Examine the Weblogic log files for the services that have not started. Look for errors or the presence of a .lck file.

   The log files are located in:

   TBI/servers/AdminServer/logs/weblogic.log
   TBI/servers/staAdapter/logs/weblogic_staAdapter.log
   TBI/servers/staUi/logs/weblogic_staUi.log
   TBI/servers/staEngine/logs/weblogic_staEngine.log
   

3. Use the rm -f command to remove the lock file for the STA server process that has not started.
4. Restart STA using the command:

   $ STA start all
