start-handle-server script no error but service not up

[Lewatle Johannes Phaladi]

Dear DSpace Team,

After upgrading from DSpace 6.2 to 7.3 when starting handle server the script on terminal gives no error but when checking handle server is down. After checking error.log file for handle the following is found inside the file:

Hi Lewatle,

You can check this thread; I believe you may have the same issue. https://groups.google.com/g/dspace-tech/c/lr7kfeLLEjg/m/PAptuDo8BAAJ

Hi Lewatle,

This was a bug affecting 7.3.  It has been fixed in the 7.4 release.  So, I'd recommend upgrading to 7.4 if you need to use the "start-handle-server" commandline script.

Hello,

You'll need to copy them to the /Dspace/lib directory. Then you run the script again to start the handle server.
