Install Camunda BPM platform

[Maria Anatania F. de S. Pucci]

I can not install Camunda BPM platform.

The page does not open http: // localhost: 8080 / Camunda-welcome / index.html

It has a video explaining step by step installation of Camunda platform?

Hi Maria,

the URL should be http://localhost:8080/camunda-welcome/index.html. Note the lowercase "c" in camunda. If this still not work please try to open http://127.0.0.1:8080/camunda-welcome/index.html.

If this still not work please post the log of the server you are starting. This depends on the distro you used.

Cheers,

Sebastian

When you start the application server then execute:

netstat -anop | grep java

The output should show the process ID of the Java application server running Camunda.

Find the address/interface that port 8080 is bound to. If it is bound to 127.0.0.1, then it may not be exposed to anything other than a browser running on the same server.

If you are running JBoss, then you can fix it by starting JBoss like this:

./standalone.sh -b 0.0.0.0

This may be way off base because you didn't describe the environment you're running it in, which has a profound effect on how to resolve this.

What I have found is that the Java application server may not always bind to an externally accessible interface (at least it didn't when I tried to use the JBoss management interface).

Another test would be to attempt to telnet to the port from an external server:

telnet <your server IP address> 8080

It should connect, then hit <ctrl>-] to exit. If it says connection refused then you would only be able to access it from a browser on the server where Camunda is running.

I have the same problem but I think that it not depends on Tomcat installation because I could install it at first and then tried to install rest manual from this link: https://docs.camunda.org/manual/latest/installation/full/tomcat/manual/

After the manual installation I couldn't start tomcat anymore and I receive the following error message: The CATALINA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly This environment variable is neede to run this program

Currently it looks like:

CATALINA_HOME : C:\Camundaproject\AppacheTomcat\apache-tomcat-7.0.65
JAVA_HOME: C:\Program Files\Java
PATH: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_43\bin;C:\Camundaproject\AppacheTomcat\apache-tomcat-7.0.65\bin

Can anyone help me please?

In your Tomcat installation directory you will find start up scripts. In that script, you can set the CATALINA_HOME directory. However, it appears that the CATALINA_HOME variable is set.

One issue you might possibly be having (although I doubt it's the case) is the use of "\" in the file path. Java doesn't like "\" in file paths as it is interpreted as an escape character. If you want to use "\" in the file path, you may need to escape it. Therefore, your CATALINA_HOME environment variable would be:

C:\\Camundaproject\\AppacheTomcat\\apache-tomcat-7.0.65

I would strongly suggest that you find the catalina.out log file and examine it. It generally contains clues as to why Tomcat is not starting.

The name of the directory is really "AppacheTomcat" with double p?

I think that might be the problem. Good catch, Frank.
