    Hi,
    I am trying to install MWS 10.15 trial version, I am using MySql Community edition for it.
    I used the DCC and created DB components corretcly.
     
    But, the installation has some errors : 
     
    Creating new server instance. Please wait...
    Buildfile: C:\SoftwareAG\MWS\server\deploy.xml
    ERROR: Instance default already exists.
     
    09:14:28 info executeCommand(): error:
    The system cannot find the file C:\SoftwareAG\MWS\server\default\bin\instance.properties.
     
    It is a fresh new installation, I tried to uninstall it and re install but same issue.
    Can someone help on this please ?
    I tried this command to create the instance : 
    C:\SoftwareAG\MWS\bin>mws new -Dserver.name=TrainingInstance -Dhttp.port=8090 -Ddb.type=mysqlce -Ddb.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306;DatabaseName=wm_training;SelectMethod=direct;MaxPooledStatements=100 -Ddb.username=root -Ddb.password=manage
    The system cannot find the file C:\SoftwareAG\MWS\server\default\bin\instance.properties.

    That might be a red herring. Try launching MWS after installation and see if it has successfully created it or not. You can always (re)create the instance manually. Refer to the document below. 

    using command central

    using mws.bat/sh

    Hi,

    I tried to create a new instance manually but did not work also, the creation has failed (I attached the log file):

    Hi Abderrahmane,

    when uninstalling MWS for recreation, remember to cleanup and re-create the db schema as well.
    Additionally, using root as the schema is not recommended, use root just to create a custom mws schema.
    Remember to cleanup the MWS/server/ directory to remove the remainings from a previously created instance.
    Install DB Configurator and scripts in the first run and create the schema, install the remaining MWS components afterwards.

    Regards,
    Holger

    Hi Holger,

    Thanks for your help.

    I applied what you asked but still getting the same issue.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    I tick the box create default instance during installation.

    I created also DB components before installation.

    Assuming you deleted the previous installation directory before reinstallation; try running the command below

    mws --update-osgi-profile

     from the directory {mws installation directory}/MWS/bin and then start the MWS again. This will remove the previous osgi profile and create it again, even if it doesn't exist. MWS should be able to create the instance after deleting the previous instance. If it doesn't, you may need to create the instance again.

    FYI, deleting (or recreating) the instance is destructive, but recreating the osgi-profile is usually harmless. Neither is important since this is a fresh installation though. 

    Documentation is below for your reference

    mws update-osgi-profile

    Yes I did what you said.

    1. Uninstalled MWS.
    2. Directory cleaned.
    3. Re Install MWS
    4. Create a new Instance
    5. Create OSGI profile
    6. Update OSGI profile.

    The update operation failed because the profile does not exist, if I create it it fails because the instance does not exist although I created it... so I am turning around with no solution.

    Everything has failed, please see below logs :

    Hello.

    Sorry for a bit "off-topic" question, but where did you get the webmethods trial from? When it was owned by SAG, it was possible to download the trial from SAG tech community, but now when it's owned by IBM I can't see such option. Could you advice, please?

    Thank you in advance,

    Best regards, Franciszek Łęgowski

    Hello,

    I has been a long time since I installed a Windows version, even more the trial package, so my answer might miss the point.

    The main installation point in MWS is to have the database already setup before installing the server.

    In the trial, do you get the dbConfigurator and the relevant scripts to do that?

    Also, from the logs, it seems you are asking to use an Oracle DB but you stated you are using MySQL. Is this so?

    Best regards and good luck.
