Error when deploying Talend Administration Center on Tomcat

StefaanSomers — Mon, 03 Mar 2025 14:38:01 GMT

I deployed the war file org.talend.administrator-8.0.1.war on a fresh Tomcat-distribution

But in the logs I find the following lines :

03-Mar-2025 15:26:23.961 INFO [main] org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployWAR Deploying web application archive [C:\usr\bin\tomcat\apache-tomcat-10.1.36\webapps\org.talend.administrator-8.0.1.war]

03-Mar-2025 15:26:28.939 SEVERE [main] org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.startInternal Context [/org.talend.administrator-8.0.1] startup failed due to previous errors

But I cannot find any more infomation, what exactly the problem may be.

Hi!
Did you ckeck the catalina.out log file (or equivalent in logs/ directory of Tomcat)? You can also check localhost.log or org.talend.administrator-8.0.1.log.

Talend 8.0.1 is officially supported on Tomcat 9 (not Tomcat 10). A possibility is to downgrade to Tomcat 9 or apply Jakarta EE migration if using Tomcat 10.

Hi,

I also tried it on Tomcat version 9, but same problem there.
I try to deploy version of tac 8.01.

In the logs of Tomcat I don't see any mentioning what could be wrong. In
the webapp I don't see any specific webapp log.

Hi @StefaanSomers I found some useful tips around the web, I tried to group them and summarrize:

---LOGS
Look in the logs/ directory of Tomcat, especially:
catalina.out
localhost.log
org.talend.administrator-8.0.1.log (if it exists)
Search for SEVERE or ERROR messages right before the failure.

---JAVA
Talend 8.0.1 requires Java 11.
Run: java -version
If you're using Java 17+ or an incompatible JDK, you might need to downgrade to Java 11.

---DEPENDENCIES
Make sure the necessary libraries (lib folder of TAC) are available.
Sometimes, missing JDBC drivers or other JARs cause failures.

---DEBUG
Add this to catalina.bat or catalina.sh:
set CATALINA_OPTS=-Djava.util.logging.config.file=logging.properties

Or start Tomcat with:
catalina.sh run
This might reveal more detailed errors.

---CLEAN INSTALL
Remove old deployments:

rm -rf apache-tomcat-9.*/webapps/org.talend.administrator*
rm -rf apache-tomcat-9.*/work/Catalina/localhost/*
Re-deploy the WAR file.

If none of these steps work, let me know, hoping in some more information from logs, or it is really complicate

Diego,

can you provide me your contact-details, then maybe I can share my logging-files and other info.

Because most of the things you propose are ok on first sight.

Hi!
You're using Tomcat 10.1.36 – Talend 8.0.1 is not officially compatible with Tomcat 10 because it relies on Java EE (now Jakarta EE), and Tomcat 10+ uses Jakarta EE.

https://tomcat.apache.org/download-migration.cgi
java -jar jakarta-migration-*-shaded.jar --source EE8 --target JakartaEE9 org.talend.administrator-8.0.1.war

This will transform Java EE package names into Jakarta EE names.

Then redeploy the migrated WAR in Tomcat 10.

Write me privately a message I send you my mail, try to help if I can
